Should I build my own pc or buy this prebuilt one?

[solomon Hunter]

The prebuilt one has things that my current pc build (thats in my cart) doesnt have. CPU is drastically better but its still good. GPU isn't bad. It comes with Windows, wifi adapter, keyboard and mouse. A lot that my current build doesn't.

My PC build:
CPU: ryzen 3 1200
GPU: 1060 6gb
RAM: 1x8 ddr4
PSU: EVGA 500W
(no windows)

Both are like the same prices in my cart but the prebuilt has more and seems like a better deal.

More and more AAA games are using about 8gb ram, and win 10 uses fair of amount of ram already, 16gb is safe bet for you run 1080p ultra without bottleneck you can downgrade to 8gb, get win 10 now (assuming you can't transfer) and upgrade to 16gb later

In contrast to the above, I strongly suggest getting whatever RAM you want now, as a set, rather then adding more on later.
Mixing RAM is always a crapshoot.

Ok, thanks.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from solomon Hunter : "Can someone build me a pc"

I plan on building a PC in December 2017 to early January 2018. My budget is $800 or less, maybe i'll buy some parts during black Friday. I'm in the USA, Maryland. I'll be primarily gaming at 1080p and I want 60 fps. I need a monitor and I plan on downloading a windows 10 installer activation thing from Microsoft.

This is my idea:
Processor: Intel Core i5-7400 Processor (3.00 GHz, 6MB L3) Max Turbo Frequency 3.50 GHz Base: Intel B250 Chipset
Memory: 8GB DDR4 (2400 MHz), UDIMM, 1 free slot, up to max. 32GB
Hard disk: 256GB Solid state drive M.2 2280 NVMe PCIE (TCG Opal Encryption 2.0, 2800 / 1100MB / s)
Optical unit: DVD Rambo
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 630
Network connections: Gigabit Ethernet Integrated 10/100 / 1000Mbps
Interfaces: half-length, full-height PCIe 3.0 x16 and PCIe 3.0 x1
Card reader: 7 in 1 Media Card Reader
Attachments: Front:
-4xUSB 3.0,
-hears and microphone
Rear:
-2xUSB 3.0,
-2xUSB 2.0,
-line in / out, microphone,
-VGA,
-RJ-45,
-DisplayPort,
-HDMI,
-serial port
Keyboard: USB keyboard
Mouse: USB mouse
Operating System: Windows 10 Professional 64 bit
Housing: TOWER
Dimensions: HxWxD 145 x 293.2 x 366 mm
Weight: 5.65kg

...My budget is $800 or less...I need a monitor...

...at 1080p and I want 60 fps...

Unless you're playing games from 2010, this isn't likely to happen.

Here's the build I came up with that should do ok for gaming on the lighter side:

seeing how GPUs are a lot of money right now, you building a computer from scratch may not be a good idea in this case. You would get about the same deal building or buying if your basing it off that computer, however you will get more customization when building. not to mention building PCs can be fun and a good learning experience if its your first time.
