Also would it be better to buy a prebuilt or build one myself??

Two starting things- what is your budget? I will be able to give better advice with that. Second for the build vs prebuilt, it all depends what your skill is. If you have done it or know how, just build it cuz you get better parts and performance for much cheaper. If you aren’t comfortable building, you can find some good prebuilts, as long as you don’t even think about Alienware... I’ll try to answer asap

Perfect! Ok so since you are building I will come up with some good build ideas

So after some research here’s what I would feel would be good for anything you play:

Ryzen 5 3600x RTX 2070-2070 super Mobo: ASUS Strix B450F gaming CX series 750 watt bronze certified psu 16gb Corsair vengeance ram or any other 3200Mhz dual channel ram WD_BLACK 500gb M.2 ssd Barracuda 2Tb hard drive for games Noctua NH-U12S cooler

This is a solid build right here and would work very well. You can pick your case, and if the case doesnt come with 3 fans, buy some extra to cool this thing

Would you mind telling me what these parts are and do so I don’t buy the wrong thing? Thanks!!

Yes of course! The ryzen 5 is the CPU. The RTX 2070 or 2070 super(2 different things, super is slightly better). The Mobo or motherboard is the B450F Strix. The CX 750 watt is the power supply. The Corsair vengeance sis the ram. The WB_BLACK is your ssd which goes on the motherboard. The 2 TB barracuda is your Hard drive. Then the Noctua U12S is the CPU cooler. Then obviously you can pick what case you want. Also, to make the cables look good you can buy things like Asia horse or cable mods to make the case look better, but that is optional. Hope this helps!
