The case is usually ugly and you might have to install a fan but it's always several hundred dollars cheaper than straight up ordering from anywhere.
I've wanted to build my own PC setup for ages. But honestly, I do next to no gaming anymore. Way too high maintenance home, 2 year old, wife is due in December...I'm limited to maybe 2-3 hours max per week.. D2 Resurrected is a nostalgia trip that I probably should have only bought for the Switch anyways.
Had my eye on Alienware. It's kinda like the BMW of gaming PCs. Good machines, but you can get just as good or better without paying as much. My brother got one and loves it though. Convenience has its perks.
Whenever I do get a family PC I'll probably make sure it can run some games decently. But if I'm being realistic I'll probably still be playing Heroes 3 in 2032.
