Seconding the ease (Gaming)

I built some computers in the early 2000s--it was nerve wracking.

Then I built a computer in mid-2017 and I was amazed how easy it was. There are even color-coded parts now!

Both buying or building a new computer is a big investment, and these days there is not as much reason to upgrade quickly, so whatever you get--you'll probably have it for a while.

If you build yourself you can get exactly what you want and you can save a lot of money. (I got a ridiculous amount of RAM and a good SSD for the primary/OS hard drive.) I would advise you to watch some videos about it before you spend the money on a pre-built.
