@Sparx I'd be happy to build it myself, I wasn't considering it initially because I was thinking of going with the original specs.
Honestly I'll probably just go with whatever I get recommended since I don't know enough to say otherwise. Just need to know exactly what I'm buying and I'd like to future proof it enough to not have to be able to play whatever I want for a few years until it needs upgrading.
 
@sparx Do you get a bag of screws to connect the motherboard inside the case with the case? Because in the case there weren't any...
