Me - Ain't got the time. I'm sure there are at least three of us!
That's fair. I don't have the time either but I love building a new custom rig and I trust myself to get it right over pre built PCs. So I make time. Saves a few $ too.
absolutely fair. A better phrasing would be "I'm not willing to spend the time and mental energy" instead of "I don't have it" to be honest.
How can you not have the time?
Even if you are not experienced then it takes a maximum of a few hours. It's not like you build a pc often
The building itself is not the issue but the compatibility checks, the hardware selection....
I spent days on mainboard selection alone -and could spend just as much time on every other part.
Basically a prebuild reduces the time to a sanity check instead of rabbit holeing (is that a word?)
Partpicker does that for you. There's so many groups/forums/discords that will provide solid build recommendations
Well it's been a decade since I last built one myself (and half a decade since my last upgrade), I'll look into it the next time thanks to you.
Thank you very much for that! (Non sarcasm disclaimer, written text and gratitude on the internet is a dangerous combination!).
