    Build your own. It isn't that tricky. Look at micromart systems builder forum. Loads of threads on first builds and lots of people who will help you spec it and advise you on any troubleshooting.

    Be brave!

    I would agree, build your own, it will be cheaper than the "custom-built" gaming PCs available online, and you can actually customize it to the spec you want.

    +1 for build your own. A trained monkey can build a PC. You essentially did the same thing as an infant - putting the right shape and colour in the right slot. Putting together a PC is essentially the same.

    Building a PC is the easy part, choosing what to put in it is the hardest. Take a look at the reviews at https://www.tomshardware.co.uk
