Buy a pre-built PC for video editing/gaming [suggestion]

So I currently have an ASUS G14 2020 laptop that I’ve been using since late 2020. It’s been getting slower and well, it is a laptop so cooling will always be an issue.

I’m looking for advice on a prebuilt PC, ideally under $1,800.

Main uses:

I edit videos in Vegas and DaVinci; mostly 4K footage, color grading, basic effects, and general editing.

I also watch a lot of YouTube, generally have a lot of tabs open lol.

For gaming, I’d like to be able to play modern games at 1440p with at least ideally 60–75+ FPS without lag or stuttering.

Also I’m open to the idea of building one, if it’s a lot cheaper, but correct me if I’m wrong, in the current landscape, it’s ideal to buy a pre-built atm? Or should I even wait a few months from now?

Anyways, appreciate the advice in advance.

Bless

I used a powergrade along with Filmbox for this look.

We only had one light source (aputure Amaron tube light) to motivate the lamps.
