Nice prebuilt specs there, what sort of premium are you paying for prebuilt I wonder, those specs are what I’m looking at but was going to build my own, but I’m still tempted by prebuilt.

Its not a a prebuilt one, i picked the parts myself. The midi config came to 2.1k and the pro config was 2.5k

The difference in actual cost is say roughly in parts £100 for the larger PSU and 360mm cooler so it's £300 more according to your calculations.

If your asking why then other than overpricing/underpricing I can't tell so ask Overclockers and if you wish to purchase then go for the cheaper that's makes most sense.

The cost for parts from the store is

Midi - £1959.91
Pro - £1997.91

Not sure how much they charge to build it, but going by the above prices they should be very similar.

Well if the midi cost price according to @freddie64 is £1959.91 that makes labour charge for the midi pre build pc a £140 which is an absolute cracking deal as Overclockers charge £300 + 3% parts to custom build.



Enjoy the pc if you decide to buy one.
