I'm in the uk and wanting to build a PC, I want to avoid the hassle of building one if buying a prebuilt is reliable or good. I have a price of £1500 maximum, do you guys reckon buyin an origin PC for £1500 will be good. Like will I have wasted too much money buying a prebuilt. It'll be used for gaming.

Origin is good. However, you'd get more for your money if you built it yourself.

Define good? it will be substantially more expensive than if you build it, but yes it will be high quality

Too much hassle, fear of breaking your shit before you build it, etcetera etcetera.

I don't think it has been said yet. 

But build it yourself.

Seriously though, don't worry about it too much. PC parts are pretty resilient.

Huh I just noticed something...

Our planned builds, very similar.

This is what I planned on doing...

I'd have to paint the GPU's red accents white.

I'm probably going to get the GTX 1070 c:

I'm hoping that the 480X has 390X performance at 380X cost. But in the off chance AMD doesn't deliver, I'd probably get a GTX 1070 then.
