🎯 The secret weapon in my value builds? You’re looking at it 👇
The Ryzen 7500F hits that perfect balance of performance and efficiency.

✅ 6-core power
✅ Great thermals
✅ Consistent FPS across top games
✅ Fits seamlessly in value-focused builds

If it says 7500F on the specs — you just found the sweet spot. 🧠💻

🎄 Merry Christmas from Build My Rig 🎄

This is our first Christmas as a business, and honestly… it’s been a bit surreal.

We officially opened the doors back in September, and since then the support has been unreal — from everyone who’s trusted us with a build, shared a post, sent a message, or simply followed along.

What started as an idea is now shipping real PCs to real people, and that’s something I’ll never take for granted.

Thank you for being part of the journey so far.
This is just the beginning, and there are big things coming next year 👀🔥

Enjoy the day, enjoy the food… and hopefully enjoy a bit of gaming too 🎮❤️

This is exactly why I do what I do.

Great communication, fair pricing, safe delivery and a PC that performs exactly as promised — that’s the standard for every build that leaves the workshop.

Massive thanks to Shamal for the kind words and the trust 💙

✨ Important Update on PC Prices ✨

Hey everyone 👋

Just a quick update from me as things have been absolutely mental since Black Friday and Cyber Monday. November smashed every expectation I had for a new, small independent business and I genuinely appreciate every single person who’s ordered, messaged, shared a post, or even just checked out the website. ❤️

Like a lot of builders right now, we’ve been hit pretty hard by the RAM shortages. Prices have gone up 300%+ and stock is getting trickier to secure so I’ve unfortunately had to adjust all the prebuilt prices on the website. I’ve kept everything as low as physically possible, and as soon as the market calms (fingers crossed), I’ll be lowering them again.

This isn’t an increase for the sake of it, it’s literally just the reality of the parts market right now. I want to stay fully transparent, keep the builds high-quality, and make sure every customer still gets unreal value for money. 💙

We are still taking orders for Christmas delivery and have just a limited number of build slots remaining🎄
Last day to order: 15th December.
If you’re thinking of getting a rig as a gift or treating yourself before the holidays, now’s the time to lock it in.

Thanks again for the support — it means more than you know.
Back to the workshop I go 🔧💨
