Why Build a Custom Computer?
There is a variety of reasons to build a custom computer yourself as opposed to buying one from Best Buy or similar. This will hopefully let you see the benifits of building your own PC. Here are a few things that going custom will get you:
- Cheaper
- Better preformance
- Enhanced knowledge of your system
Building a computer by hand is often cheaper than buying one from a store. If you bought a computer from a store it is generally marked up in price, therefore making it more expensive. Buying the parts seperately and assembling it yourself will save you a few hundred.
Assembing your own computer will offer better preformance than something pre-assembled. It will not have any sort of software pre-installed like many machines today.
By assembling a computer yourself, you will have some enhanced knowledge of your system. If any issues arise you can be somewhat informed of what is going on and attempt to fix it. Having this knowledge is important as we move forward in the digital age.
