I'm really hesitant about the price, but there are other things to consider. The first two builds are pre-assembled from a reputable store and have a 3-year warranty. Build 3 is purchased with individual parts, each with its own warranty (I chose the parts myself). For this reason, I can't exchange any components from the first two builds.

I think the real problem is that the second build has a much better GPU but a very weak SSD and power supply, while the first build has very good components overall but a worse GPU. The third build is obviously the best, but the price is quite high, while the first build has a €200 discount (related to buying all the parts separately) and the second build a €100 discount (same thing has the 1st one). I'm really undecided on what to do. Should I spend more now and not have to worry about it in the future, or should I buy one of the pre-built systems, knowing that if I change any parts I'll lose the warranty? I appreciate any help you can offer. Btw, the first 2 builds end the discount on monday.

PS: Don't recommend new components, because I'm from Portugal and the prices are different from other countries. Thank you!
