Should i build or make a pc i heard that making one is gonna cost a lot since bitcoin miners use all of the GPU’s and i want a pc for games and school but i dont know if buying a pre built pc is cheaper and better than making one like i want a computer that can run doom and other games at 60 fps or higher but i dont know if making or building one will be cheaper

gpu prices have dropped a lot lately so building yourself is once again the best option.

there was a time where you could actually get more from a pre-built but not anymore :)

if you'd like help picking parts, we'd be happy to help. we'd need a budget, overall goals of the pc and if you need things like a monitor or windows and so on. you'll save cash not buying an overclockable set-up from intel but since all amd cpu's can oc, you'll be able to get some extra from one of their systems with cheaper parts.

just need some basic info and we can help get the best bang for the buck for you :D
most dell and hp now use non standard case sizes and small under sized power supply. putting a pc together today is not hard if you take your time. if you dont think you can look to see if there any local mom and pop shops that do. try to stay away from the big gaming pc customer builders.
