Is building a gaming PC cheaper and better than buying a prebuilt one?

I have read that gaming PCs can be build. However I am wondering which is better between buying and building your own?

Are you seriously considering building a gaming PC kat82? If so, what do you want it to do, e.g. what games do you want to play on it?

Games like Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate III, GTA5 and many more. I read that building your own gaming PC is much better than buying that is why I have the idea still in mind.

I heard building one is better than buying, but i don't know if it's actually cheaper though.

That's my question as well. May be I should start checking prices for the different accessories required.
