I have always bought pre built PC's as I love gaming but have no idea about the insides of one but have recently come to the realization that you lose out on a lot of money + power doing this. I get about 100-110fps on rust with mid-low graphics without streaming with a 144hz monitor and would like to bump that up so that I can comfortably sit at my monitor hz while streaming in the future. Maybe even upgrade my monitor to 240hz so get the fps above 200. Bought the set up for 1700£ almost 2 years ago and it's time to get some more power and I feel like it's a waste buying a brand new set up when I can just build from here. I have also had a problem in the last few months where I could be watching something on YouTube and as I minimize the browser to do something in the background the PC just freezes and makes a beep sound then comes back after clicking a few times on the minimize. Happens quite often could be something that needs replacing also?
