But at the moment, that\u2019s not really true. A combination of factors including the COVID-19 pandemic and huge fluctuations in cryptocurrency mean that it\u2019s a lot more expensive to buy high-end parts, if you can even find them at all.<\/p>\n<p>So, we\u2019re in a rare situation. It actually makes a lot more sense to buy a pre-built computer right now, even if you have the know-how to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/howto\/the-geek-blog\/building-a-new-computer-part-1-choosing-hardware\/\">choose your own parts and assemble them<\/a>.

There are a few different factors. First, the COVID-19 pandemic has created a higher demand for desktop PCs as people invest in home offices for remote work\u00a0or just expand their in-home entertainment. Not only does that mean there are fewer parts to sell on their own, it means that large computer manufacturers like Dell, HP, and Acer are hitting those supply lines harder, too.<\/p>\n<p>And because parts suppliers like Intel, Asus, and MSI can get more profit out of bulk orders, the PC makers take precedence over end users who buy one part at a time. It\u2019s a big shift. PC sales have actually <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chart\/12578\/global-pc-shipments\/\">increased by a significant amount this year<\/a>, reversing an eight-year trend since the rise of smartphones and tablets.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_68994\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-68994 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/6212dab976be72fd0ac8e062986dcda6\/p\/uploads\/2021\/01\/x47085924.jpeg.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.eNnzPvz61x.jpg\" alt=\"Gartner chart showing a rise in PC sales \" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" data-credittext=\"Statista\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Statista<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We\u2019re also seeing some dramatic increases in computer power.

Ditto for GPUs: The NVIDIA RTX 3000 series of graphics cards seem to have worked out the kinks of the previous gen, and AMD\u2019s Radeon cards are keeping up competitively.<\/p>\n<p>If everything were normal, it would be a really exciting to be a PC <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>r.

Cryptocurrency is a complicated subject, but to boil it down to the essentials: You can use a computer to turn electricity into digital \u201ccoins\u201d sold as a commodity, like stocks or bonds. The more powerful your computer, the more coins you can mine. Graphics cards are particularly efficient at this, so miners are buying up as many cards as they can get their hands on and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/342079\/is-it-safe-to-buy-used-gpus-from-cryptocurrency-miners\/\">running them in massively powerful mining computers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a frustrating situation if you\u2019re a gamer or a professional artist because all those sweet, sweet computer parts are just sitting there, almost literally crunching numbers, and not being used to run Minecraft at 16K and 300 frames per second.

They\u2019re banding together in loose pseudo-companies, using sophisticated software tools to order up CPUs, graphics cards, game consoles, and other in-demand electronics en masse. Some of these pseudo-companies have managed to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/news\/scalpers-have-sold-50000-nvidia-rtx-3000-gpus-through-ebay-stockx\">amass stockpiles of thousands of individual units<\/a>. This isn\u2019t illegal, strictly speaking, it\u2019s just scummy and frustrating.<\/p>\n<p>While manufacturers can\u2019t make these sophisticated electronics fast enough to supply even a normal consumer market, scalpers are skewing the fairly benign forces of supply and demand to the breaking point. There are some efforts to combat this: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/newegg-shuffle-prize-draw-amd-ryzen-nvidia-rtx-3080\/\">Newegg is offering a ticket system<\/a> to let people buy in-demand parts at retail price. But even so, demand is still so high that your odds of getting one at the \u201creal\u201d price are vanishingly low for the time being.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Time_to_Buy_Pre-assembled\"><\/span>Time to Buy Pre-assembled<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One section of the market gets CPUs, GPUs, and other parts at the best price: The companies that make computers and sell them as single units. Parts suppliers are interested in maintaining those relationships, so companies like Dell, Acer, Lenovo, and even more boutique manufacturers like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowerpc.com\/\">CyberPowerPC<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.falcon-nw.com\/\">Falcon Northwest<\/a> will get first crack at the limited pool of high-end parts.<\/p>\n<p>And because those companies want to, you know, sell computers, their prices for desktop PCs haven\u2019t moved all that much during the current crunch. This means that if you\u2019re thinking of building a new PC or even just upgrading your existing build with a new CPU or graphics card, it makes more sense to buy pre-assembled right now.<\/p>\n<p>This goes for almost anything except ultra-low-power builds\u2014even mid-range builds without a dedicated graphics card.

That brings the cost of my self-assembled gaming desktop to $1650. And that\u2019s assuming that you ever get that graphics card, and don\u2019t find yourself pestering PayPal for a refund. Assuming you go with Amazon, it costs $2050.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s let our fingers do the walking over to Dell. A custom gaming desktop with <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/redirect.viglink.com?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dell.com%2Fen-us%2Fshop%2Fdesktop-computers%2Fdell-g5-gaming-desktop%2Fspd%2Fg-series-5000-desktop%2Fgd5090g510s%3Fview%3Dconfigurations%26amp%3Bconfigurationid%3D5f6e66d0-eff6-432f-a522-726f13fff39b&amp;key=204a528a336ede4177fff0d84a044482\">approximately the same specifications<\/a> (same processor, GPU, RAM, M.2 SSD, in a basic case) costs $1829 right now. When you factor in shipping parts and tax from multiple stores, plus $100 for the Windows 10 license you\u2019d have to buy, it\u2019s approximately the same as the best-case scenario \u2026 and way less than that Amazon purchase. You\u2019re still paying a $150 premium over the retail price for that RTX 3070 card, but it\u2019s a much better deal than trying to appease the scalpers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-68999 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/fbe87ce858ba3154693034d7097bf0db\/p\/uploads\/2021\/01\/x2ce82756.jpg.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.re2RqJ-R6i.jpg\" alt=\"Dell gaming desktop \" width=\"1010\" height=\"557\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Crucially, that Dell computer comes with a one-year warranty on not just the computer itself, but all of the individual parts.

There are ways to juice the value there, too: If I went with the bottom-tier RAM and SSD from Dell, and used the savings to buy the ones from PCPartPicker, I could save $300 \u2026 and replace them with just $140 worth of add-on parts. I could even make a few bucks selling the slower hard drive, or keep it for extra storage. And of course, you can often find pre-built configurations on sale.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the point of this thought experiment: You\u2019ll almost certainly save time, money, and frustration by going with a pre-built desktop right now, assuming you don\u2019t go all-out with the customized extras.
