You want to start gaming sooner.
You care more about frame rate per dollar than premium custom extras.
You want local setup, file transfer, cleanup, and optimization after purchase.

When custom is worth it

You care about airflow, thermals, noise, and upgrade path.
You want a more tailored parts list and cleaner presentation.
You are shopping above basic budget territory.
