The Gaming Brief: Grand Theft Auto VI is heading toward its November 19 console launch, and Take-Two chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick addressed a familiar question at the company’s annual shareholder meeting: when does PC get its turn?

A gaming laptop sounds like the perfect compromise because it gives desktop-level performance packed into a machine you can carry anywhere.

Suddenly, you’re left wondering if putting the system together yourself could save enough money to make the effort worthwhile. It’s a question almost every first-time PC buyer asks, and the answer isn’t always obvious. Component prices rise and fall, prebuilt deals come and go, and hidden costs can change the equation. My purpose in creating this guide is to give you details about the cost of getting an already…
