When you configure a custom PC with us, we usually have it built and shipped within 3-5 working days. The actual assembly takes a few hours, but we spend extra time testing everything properly and making sure Windows is set up right before it leaves. Rush builds can sometimes be arranged—just give us a call.
Building your own gaming PC through our configurator can cost anywhere from £600 to over £3,500, depending on what you choose. Entry-level builds with something like a Ryzen 5 and RTX 3050 are cheaper. If you want top-end stuff like the RTX 5090 or Ryzen 9800X3D, you're looking at the higher end of that range.
Head to our configurator page and start picking parts—case first, then CPU, graphics card, RAM, all that. The site won't let you choose stuff that doesn't fit together, which is handy. After you order, our team builds it, checks everything works, and sends it out. You just plug it in when it arrives.
Custom built gaming pc starting price is around £600 for entry-level. High-end builds can hit £4,000 or more if you go mad with specs. Your graphics card eats most of the budget—an RTX 5070 costs way more than an RTX 3050, for example. Storage and RAM are relatively cheap these days, so that helps.
They're just different approaches. Custom means you decide every single part—great if you've got specific needs or want a particular look. Prebuilt is faster because we've already sorted the specs. Either way, we're building it, so the quality's identical. Just depends if you want control or convenience.
