Build or buy

Hey guys I am a beginner in building PC's so I have a few questions :

I am in a big dilemma whether to buy a PC or to build one , if I had to buy one what should it be a laptop or a desktop. I intend to do live stream's and gaming . So of I had to build one from already available usable part that is I have a hard disk ,optical drive, case and a monitor would it be possible for me to be in a range of around 50,000rupees in India or could u suggest some future builds with the new ryzen 1600x thank you

Unless you want to carry the computer around with you a lot, I suggest you build a desktop.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

I advice against that. They are harder to upgrade and rarely worth it fps/$.

Desktop for sure. I learned a lot from building my first PC and I'm glad I have that experience to help further my learning of computers.
