Pc building (lemmy.world)

I want to escape consoles and finally build a gaming pc but I've seen the prices...

Everything is really overwhelming for me and I have no clue what I should go for and everyone is giving me differing answers so I ask you.

Is building a PC ACTUALLY cheaper than buying one?

What specs would I even need? All I wanna do is play arc raiders comfortably at high settings and play heavily modded Garry's mod.

I've never been much of a graphics person to be honest. I mainly play shooters and I would much rather have fps over graphics lmao

I will prioritize graphics for games that are less action and more story focused though because I wanna be there. I don't mind 30 fps once in a while. (I'm currently playing through assassins creed 3 on ps5)

I'll be sure to check them out, thanks!
