I agree with this. Pick one of the build templates on PC part picker that fit your budget, and then tweak it here and there for specific things you’re looking for. That said, I have seen pre built for sale at Costco or on eBay that are ‘worth it’ for the RAM alone. Building a PC is fun as hell. Once you’ve done it, you know how to do it, where everything goes and how it works together, making future inevitable work on it so much more intuitive.
