I always build. Made about 10 computers now. Have never bought a package deal or from Dell! Although I'd consider it if I were to get a laptop.

Where ever is cheapest. Usual places are:

https://www.watford.co.uk
https://www.microdirect.co.uk

Used to go to computer fares a lot (ones in and around Tottenham Court Road, London), but barely do so nowadays. Have found they aren't as good as they used to be, and I can find what I want on the web more easily.

I got this one from Evesham and my previous one too which is still going strong after 7 years (with a few repairs) You can get 3 years onsite warranty and the helpline is well...helpful ...as is the e mail support afterwards for any problems

My vote would be build your own (if someone hadn't of left this option off) lol

If you are going to build your own you can get round having a featherweight heatsink and earsplitting tornado fan effort. There are limits to what can survive a long courier journey so manufacturers have to restrict the mass of cooling solutions and turn up the revs. Are there similar firms to https://www.overclockers.uk that have a quality range of heatsinks like these.
The alleged scientific explaination is often nonsense but I admire the creative writing effort and wacky designs.

Previous one was given to me and this one is from Mertec (now Evesham).

£300 cheaper than PC world at the time - still going with just a few upgrades from kind nephew.
