Nobody knew at first. Until they tried it for the first time.
It’s not so much about knowledge nowadays, but about convenience.
If OP can’t be arsed and just wants a prebuilt and be done with it, that’s entirely up to them. But as I said, if they are willing and able, they can get much more out of it.
No idea what the branding is or any warranty on those parts, if any. I’m building a mid-tier/budget PC right now and the market is flooded with (knockoff? Not sure what to call them. Just cheap parts with bizarre maker names) and you need to sift through a lot of junk to find more trusted brands.
For decent parts, though, it’s still not cheap to build a good gaming PC. Mot of the standard manufacturers are still there - EVGA, Asus, MSi, Corsair, etc. This is the third computer I’ve built in the last 6 months and the price fluctuations are all over the place as well as even the quality for well known brands.
If you choose to build one, I think people at [email protected] will be willing to help.

Plus, building the PC with your son could be a very exciting teaching experience for him.
It’s cheaper to build one yourself with these specs, but yes, it’s a fine PC for gaming.
Not everyone knows how to build a PC

Absolutely agreed.

Plus I’ve seen too many pre built horror stories…
Yeah good point, let me edit my comment
