Solution
That build is great. Get it for sure.


The Bestbuy build is garbage. It will barely play games at lowest settings while the custom build will max them.

If you want the best bang for your buck as they say build every time.
Do your research find the components you want then find the best price for each part.
Building a PC is little more than putting pieces together these days.
You'll almost certainly get a better system for less cash.
