Not looking to spend more than 1000-1500 USD .

Watch a 20 min youtube video and u will know how to put it together. It's like legos but there are really only 5 parts.

What Motorbreath said. I understand the appeal of prebuilts. I came here in I think 2010 to ask the same question. These guys literally found the best PC parts for my budget and walked me through how to put it together. I spent like three hours on the phone with Ghot diagnosing a RAM issue.

Post a thread following the guidelines in computer building help. I know building a PC can seem complicated but it's actually more like plug-n-play. It's very easy. You will quite literally be throwing money in a fire if you buy prebuilt.

There are many sites but hardly worth it considering they cheap out
And you get bloatware on many
if you make 50 an hour then pay someone to build it
time is money

Nzxt BLD is your best option for prebuilt if you are deadset on going that route. You will ultimately save money building it yourself.

what a waste...

Here's what you get if you build it yourself.

Also don't buy a 2000 series gpu new or wait for 3000 restock.

None really.

Build one yourself or pay a friend to build one for you.

Prebuild pc's usually have poor quality components cause they have to make money somehow. So they add a shitty power supply etc.
