Hey,
I want to have a gaming PC and I have a $2000 budget. I don't trust myself with building such an expensive PC. So I want to get a custom pre built PC. What is the best one for my budget?
Thanks

Do you need peripherals? Monitor? OS?

Best bang for the buck is building your own, and if you are afraid to build on your own, find a local computer shop and they should be able to build it for you for usually $50.
