Okay, so I now finally have enough money saved up that I feel I can grant myself a new PC.
My dilemma is basically this: I have no experience building PCs and I am probably going to get a pre-built one(Though from a computer store over here that let's you customize the PC and don't overcharge like Dell does, I actually went ahead and put together a very high-end PC for fun from both of them and compared prices, the Dell one ended up being around 3000 euro, whereas the one from the store I am planning on was around 2300, just as an example of the price difference between them.), but I know I have this bad habit of always wanting to spend as much as I can when I buy new things(Within my means though.)
I am wondering, is it more sensible to rather than spend all the cash I've saved up instantly on a very very good PC, spend them on a mid-range PC and use the money I don't spend to upgrade it as the years go on?
Just to be clear, I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to PCs, as you probably gathered from the fact I didn't build my own and don't plan to. Hence why I would value input on this, especially since I tend to spend a bit too much on these things.
