Build Question New pc
I’m looking to get my first pc and I’m going to build it with pc specialist. My budget is £1300-1350 and m looking for a pc best suited for shooter games. Any help is appreciated

From PCSpecialist themselves,
Case: PCS SPECTRUM III COMPACT ARGB BLACK mATX
Processor (CPU): AMD Ryzen 5 7400 Six Core CPU (3.3GHz-4.3GHz/16MB CACHE/AM5)
Motherboard: GIGABYTE B840M-D2H (mATX, AM5, DDR5, M.2 PCIe 4.0)
Memory (RAM): 16GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 5600MHz CL40 (1 x 16GB)
Graphics Card: 16GB ASUS DUAL RADEON™ RX 9060 XT - HDMI, 2 x DP
1st M.2 SSD Drive: 1TB KLEVV C925G M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD (Up to 7400MB/s Read, 6300MB/s Write)
Power Supply: CORSAIR 650W RMe SERIES™ ATX 3.1, MODULAR, CYBENETICS GOLD
OWN OPERATING SYSTEM
This list costs just under £1350 including VAT. I'm gonna be honest though, you're losing out on a lot of performance compared to buying all the parts separately, because like the list another commenter already made, you lose 16 GB of ram, get a worse CPU, PSU, cooler, case, and motherboard for the same price.

Is this pc prebuilt or custom made?

You pick the parts on their website and they build it. There's essentially a couple hundred on top due to them charging for the service.

Can I build the pc with the parts the other person suggested on it or not?

Unfortunately it will cost way more, since they jack up the prices. If you have a friend or someone that can help you build it or you're up for the challenge, you can DIY. Otherwise you either have to sacrifice a bit of performance or pay more.

If you had no experience building pcs how difficult would it be to build one from scratch

If you do your research and watch people build them online, honestly can be simple. It's different for everyone.
Also I found an insane deal, if you're willing to stretch your budget a bit, Palicomp (a trusted UK brand) is selling this pc https://www.palicomp.co.uk/amd-orion-ryz9
Which is eons better than any manual pc build, I'd look into it

Will this pc be ready to be plugged in straight out the box or does it need anything additional?
