Most if the laptops I have seen can't stop from overheating when playing games which I think is why I stopped playing pc games and moved to the consoles.

Prebuilt is basically double the price. With how easy it is now to build (pretty much impossible to bend CPU pins, modular PSUs, ect) someone that's never built a PC could get one up and running in less than 3 hours.

Prebuilt machines are more or less the same cost they've been for years but competition has created a large number of options in every price range for self-builds.
