I highly recommend either getting it built for you or buying a prebuilt one. There usually is money to save by buying a premade one, and doesn't seem like the actual building aspect of the computer is what interests you a whole lot.
Building your own PC will almost always be cheaper as you're cutting out labour costs and inflated component prices.
OP: You should probably buy a pre-built PC. It will cost you more but if you're not sure what parts a computer needs, building one won't be the best idea.
As I stated before, I think you should research before making any decisions in regards of spending money on a computer. Each setup is different, but from my experience there can be money to saved when doing configurable prebuilt ones. I'm not coming with a definitive answer on what is cheapest, but sharing my own experiences. I don't know how these companies that builds computers for ya goes around, but I suppose they get discounted hardware because they can bulk order them.
