Or pay someone to do it? I'm thinking of doing it myself but it has been many years since I last built one.

Below are 3 premium local companies for customised PC.
They could provide better service than shops in Sim Lim.
But shops in Sim Lim should be cheaper.

Sim Lim shops like PC Themes always get good reviews leh............

Your seller means manufacturer?
Your warranty is from manufacturer not from seller.
Never remove the seal. Your warranty will be void.

How do put into word?
A person who knows computer will build his own pc. He won’t buy off the rack pc with limited expansion capability. It is actually an insult to buy prebuilt desktop pc from the rack.

My Intel cpu warranty is directly registered  from Intel website.

prebuilt desktops parts quality not that good............but good thing is much smaller and lighter...........bring in for servicing also easier...........

i saw one guy with a Lenovo desktop...............about same size as laptop............about 3 times as thick..........

I've always been intrigued by the idea, although I admit it can seem a bit daunting at first. But hey, if you're up for the challenge and enjoy tinkering with tech, why not give it a shot?
And hey, if you're looking to fund your PC building adventure, have you ever thought to sell csgo skins for real money? It's a cool way to earn some extra cash while also fine-tuning your gaming setup.

Are you referring to gaming pc?
Gaming pc is good and user friendly for pc upgrade.
Prebuilt desktop pc is a hell for upgrading.
Never buy prebuilt pc. Pay higher price tag for lousy parts.

Do you know the service centre can void your warranty very easily if you have accidentally damaged the warranty sticker or you have mishandling your computer.

DIY use best part, very rarely to encounter component failure. It also give more power load in case you want to upgrade your GPU or any other part.

In the end I bought a laptop instead of a PC. Maybe later part of the year I'll build a PC. Better value for money, but a bit anxious cos it's almost 10 years since I built one. Lost touch on specs liao.

i was thinking DIY PC will be more reliable..............but one of my Crucial RAM spoilt after just under 2 years...........but got free replacement RAM

also my ASRock gaming motherboard lost 2 USB ports after just over 1 year...........

I did mine a while back, and yeah, you can save some cash and get exactly what you want spec-wise. But man, cable management was a nightmare at first. Wires everywhere.
I ended up getting these Under Desk Cable Trays to keep things tidy, especially under the desk. Helps a ton – now I’m not tripping over wires or spending ages sorting them out whenever I add something new.

I'm way past that stage. Built one many years ago and it's too troublesome, must make sure a lot of thing is done properly, like glueing the CPU to the heatsink etc. Now, I'll just use money to buy some convenience. 

Hope your PC lasts! Do show a photo here hahaha..
