Custom PC UK – Build Your Own Gaming PC with Ginger6
Ginger6 is a UK custom PC builder and computer shop that has been designing and building desktop PCs since 2001. From our workshop in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, we create custom gaming PCs, home and office computers and workstations for people who want something better than a standard off-the-shelf machine.

Whether you are buying your first gaming PC or upgrading to a serious custom PC, we help you choose parts that make sense for your games, your screen and your budget.
Because we specialise in custom PCs for UK customers, we understand what matters to gamers and professionals alike. Fast delivery, reliable parts and long warranties all come as standard. This is not a mass-produced import. You are getting a carefully built machine from a team you can speak to on the phone or by email whenever you need help.
- Built in the UK since 2001
- Custom gaming PCs, workstations, home and office PCs
- Honest advice from technicians who build systems every day
- Lifetime technical support and long warranties
Not sure where to start? Call Kevin on 01902 714533. Tell him your games, monitor, and budget and he will confirm the right build.
Gaming PCs for Every Player
The right gaming PC depends on what you play and what settings matter to you. Different games stress different components. We match the hardware to what actually matters for your titles. Browse our full range of gaming PCs in the UK, or pick by the game you play below.
Your game is not listed? Tell us what you play and we will recommend a build. Call the expert on 01902 714533 or email [email protected] with your game list, monitor resolution, and budget.
See All Gaming PCsGaming is at the heart of Ginger6. Whatever you play, we can match you with a gaming PC that suits your style.
Competitive Esports Gamers
If your evenings are spent on titles such as Valorant, Counter Strike or Rocket League, you care about fast response and high frame rates. For this type of player we usually suggest:
- A strong mid to high range Intel Core or AMD Ryzen processor
- 16 GB of fast RAM as a minimum
- A capable Nvidia RTX or AMD Radeon graphics card tuned for very high frame rates at 1080p
- A case and cooling set up that keeps noise low while you focus on your match
With the right monitor, these systems can comfortably push well into triple digit frames per second.
Story-Driven and Open World Fans
For single player titles, RPGs and open world games you may prioritise visual detail and higher resolutions. For these builds we lean towards:
- Higher tier RTX or Radeon cards that handle 1440p or 4K
- 32 GB of RAM to keep big worlds flowing smoothly
- Larger SSDs for quicker loading of texture heavy games
- Quiet cooling solutions so long sessions stay comfortable
You get a system that makes modern games look and feel as they should, while leaving room for future upgrades.
Whether you want a 1080p machine for popular titles, a high refresh 1440p esports build or a premium 4K gaming PC with a high-end graphics card, we can build a configuration that suits your aims. Tell us the games you play and the resolution of your monitor and we will recommend a set of parts that make sense.
Who Builds Your Custom PC at Ginger6?
Ginger6 is a Custom PC Builder based in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, run by Kevin and a small team of experienced technicians. We have been building gaming PCs, workstations, and specialist systems since 2001. Every PC that leaves our workshop is built by hand by an experienced technician, not assembled on a factory line.
When you call or email Ginger6, the person who answers also builds customers' PCs. If something goes wrong six months after delivery, you speak to someone who builds PCs like yours every day, not a call centre.
This is not a company where sales, build, and support are three separate departments that never speak to each other. It is one team in one workshop. That is why we can stand behind every PC that leaves our workshop.
What Makes Ginger6 Different
One Team Does Everything
The person you speak to about your spec also builds customers' PCs, and answers your calls if you need support. No ticket queues. No explaining your problem to someone who has never built a PC.
We Have Been Here Since 2001
Same phone number. Same workshop. Same approach. We are not a startup that appeared last year. Customers who bought PCs from us in 2005 still call for upgrades.
We Will Tell You to Spend Less
If you do not need an i9 for your games, we will say so. If a cheaper graphics card handles your monitor resolution perfectly, we will recommend it. We would rather recommend the right PC than the most expensive one.
Every PC Is Stress-Tested for 24 Hours
Not a quick boot-up check. A full 24 hours of testing, including sustained CPU and GPU load, to catch any instability before your PC ships. If a component is going to fail, it fails on our bench, not on your desk.

Reviews from UK Customers
Ginger6 has over 1,100 reviews on Trustpilot with a 93% five-star rating. These reviews are not curated or cherry-picked. Read them yourself and see what patterns emerge.
Ordered a pc from Ginger6, was built extremely fast (4 days I believe) then delivered on next day delivery for the 5th day! PC is in excellent condition running as intended. Very professional place and extremely happy with how everything turned out. Would order from these guys again!
Kevin was brilliant at answering my questions and recommending the best machine for my budget and purpose. It was exactly one week between ordering and delivery. The computer was for my son and is now the envy of all his friends.
I would rate this pc builder as second to none, I have had no problems with my pc. As I am a sim-racer I therefore need ultra quick responses which you get! Simply tell Ginger6 what you wish from your pc and I give my word you will not be disappointed!
Why Choose Ginger6 for Your Custom PC
Buying a custom built PC can feel confusing. Processor names keep changing, graphics cards sound similar and it is hard to know what actually matters. Ginger6 exists to make that choice easier and safer.
A Builder That Cares about Your Whole System
Large brands often hit a headline price by cutting corners you cannot see. For example:
- Fast processor but a weak graphics card
- Small cheap power supply that struggles with upgrades
- Slow storage that makes a fast CPU feel sluggish
We build your custom PC as a complete system. Processor, graphics, memory, storage, motherboard, cooling and power supply are all matched so they work properly together. That gives you smooth performance today and a clear upgrade path tomorrow.
Straightforward, Honest Advice
We speak to customers every day who have been told they "need" parts that do nothing for their use case. Our approach is different:
- We listen to which games or applications you use
- We ask about your monitor resolution and refresh rate
- We find out your budget and which upgrades you might want later
Then we recommend a PC that fits. Nothing hidden, no unnecessary extras, just a system that feels quick and stays dependable.
A UK Team You Can Actually Talk To
When you buy a custom PC from Ginger6 you are dealing with a real team:
- UK-based phone support
- Quick replies to email and live chat
- Technicians who know how your system is built inside
If something goes wrong, or if you just want to upgrade, you are not left arguing with an overseas call centre. You speak to the same people who build PCs all day and fix them when needed.
How Ginger6 Helps You Pick the Right PC
You might love the idea of a custom PC but feel lost when you look at part lists. That is normal. Our job is to turn your wish list into a build that works.
Step 1: Tell Us How You Use Your PC
You do not need to know your way around graphics card models. Start with simple details:
- The games you play, or the software you use
- The resolution and refresh rate of your monitor
- Whether you want to stream, record or edit video
- Your target budget
You can send this by email, use live chat or just tell us over the phone.
Step 2: We Translate That into Hardware
Using your answer, we match you with the right:
- Processor: Intel Core or AMD Ryzen chip with enough power for your mix of games and work
- Graphics card: Nvidia RTX or AMD Radeon card that suits your resolution and frame rate targets
- Memory: RAM capacity that keeps both games and background apps smooth
- Storage: SSDs sized for Windows, your favourite titles and any media libraries
We will explain our choices in plain English. If we think a cheaper part will perform the same for your needs, we will say so. If a slightly higher spend would make a big difference to performance or future upgrades, we will point that out too.
Step 3: You Confirm, Then We Build and Test
Once you are happy with the specification, you place your order. We then:
- Assemble your PC by hand in our Wolverhampton workshop
- Install Windows and all necessary drivers
- Run 24 hours of tests, including stress tests on the processor, graphics card and memory
- Check that temperatures, noise levels and cable management are all up to standard
Your system only leaves us once it has passed real world testing.

Build Your Own Custom PC Online
If you are ready to choose parts yourself, our online custom PC builder makes the process clear and safe. You can see how each choice affects both performance and price in real time.
Simple Configurator, Sensible Defaults
Every base model starts with a collection of parts that already work well together. From there you can adjust:
- Processor: Pick from AMD Ryzen or Intel Core options, from entry level chips for home use through to powerful multi-core processors for gaming and content creation.
- Graphics card: Choose an Nvidia RTX or AMD Radeon card that fits your target resolution. We offer options for 1080p gaming, high refresh 1440p and 4K.
- Memory and storage: Select RAM capacity and SSD size to keep your system responsive. Add a secondary SSD or hard drive if you have a large game library or media collection.
- Case and cooling: Decide how your PC should look and sound. Choose clean and subtle or bold with RGB lighting. Extra cooling options are available for very quiet builds or higher end systems.
- Keyboard, mouse and monitor: Add them to any build so your complete set up arrives together.
- Wi-Fi and extras: Add Wi-Fi, Windows licensing and any other extras you need so your PC is ready to use straight from the box.
While you configure, the price updates so you stay in control of your budget. We check every order before it reaches the workbench and will contact you if we spot anything unbalanced. When you check out, your order goes straight to our workshop, where our team assembles your PC by hand, installs Windows, updates drivers and puts the system through 24 hours of testing before it ships.
If you feel overwhelmed by the options, you do not have to learn every detail. Get in touch by phone, email or live chat. Tell us what you want from your next PC and we will suggest a specification that delivers strong performance without wasting money on parts you do not need.

Workstations, Home and Office PCs
Custom computers are not just for gamers. Ginger6 also builds workstations and everyday PCs for work, study and creative projects.
Content Creation and Professional Workstations
For video editing, CAD, 3D modelling, AI and other intensive work, we design workstations that stay responsive even under load. Typical choices include:
- Multi-core AMD Ryzen or Intel processors with strong multi-thread performance
- 32 GB, 64 GB or more of RAM depending on project size
- Multiple NVMe SSDs so project files and scratch disks stay fast
- Professional grade Nvidia RTX graphics cards where appropriate
We can also provide guidance on storage strategies and backup so your data remains safe. See our workstation PCs
Home and Office PCs
If you need a reliable desktop for remote work, school and everyday tasks, we focus on:
- Quiet operation and low power use
- Reliable components from trusted brands
- Plenty of USB ports for printers, webcams and other devices
- Wi-Fi and networking options to match your set up
We can tailor systems for home offices, small businesses and education, with specifications that are easy to maintain and upgrade. See our home and office PCs
Performance, Testing and Build Quality
A fast specification on paper is only part of the story. How your custom PC is assembled and tested affects how it feels day to day and how long it lasts.
Carefully Chosen Components
We work with brands that have proved themselves over many years, such as:
- AMD and Intel for processors
- Nvidia and AMD for graphics
- Kingston, Corsair and similar for memory
- Samsung and other leading storage makers
- Reliable power supplies with honest ratings
We avoid low quality parts that might hit a tempting price but shorten the life of your system.
Attention to Assembly
Inside every Ginger6 custom PC you will find:
- Neat cable management that helps airflow and makes upgrades easier
- Correct application of thermal paste and proper cooler mounting
- Fans positioned for steady airflow through the case
This is the sort of detail you rarely see in stock images, but it has a real impact on performance, noise and reliability.
Stress-Testing Every Custom PC UK System
Once your PC is assembled, it moves into our testing area for 24 hours of checks designed to prove it can handle real world gaming and creative workloads. Before we pack your PC, we:
- Run extended stress tests on the processor and memory
- Load the graphics card with gaming style workloads
- Check storage for errors
- Monitor temperatures to ensure cooling works as intended
If a part misbehaves, it is replaced and the tests are run again. You receive a system that has already proved itself under realistic conditions.
Why 24 Hours?
Some problems only appear under sustained load. A marginal memory stick might pass a quick test but fail after four hours. Twenty-four hours is long enough to catch these issues.
UK-Based Support, Warranty and Upgrades
When you buy a custom PC from Ginger6 you are not just paying for parts. You are paying for ongoing support from people who know exactly how your system is put together.
Lifetime Technical Support
For the life of your PC you can contact us for help with:
- Troubleshooting boot or stability issues
- Driver questions and updates
- BIOS settings and firmware
- Advice on cleaning and basic maintenance
Most problems can be solved with a quick call or email. If we need to see the PC, we will explain the process clearly. Because we built your system, our technicians already know how your case, motherboard and cooling are arranged, which makes troubleshooting faster.
What the Standard 3-Year Warranty Covers
If a component fails within the parts and postage warranty period, contact us. We will arrange collection, diagnose the problem, replace the failed part, retest the system, and return it to you. No repair charges. No parts fees. No hidden costs.
- ✓ Option to upgrade to 2 or 3 Year Parts/Postage Warranty
- ✓ Parts replacement for any failed component
- ✓ Labour costs at no charge
- ✓ Return shipping paid by us
- ✓ Typical repair turnaround of 3-5 working days
Upgrade Advice When You Are Ready
As games and software move on, you might want to fit a newer graphics card, add more memory or increase SSD capacity. Because we built your system, we can quickly tell you which upgrades make sense and which would be limited by other parts, so you spend money where it will actually show a difference.
