Custom Built Computers

Whether you’re planning to use your machine for work or pleasure, custom building a computer gives you a range of options and the opportunity to create the perfect device for your needs. For those computer users looking for extra firepower or a unique configuration, having a computer custom built for you might be the right answer.

Here are a few questions that will help you decide if getting a custom-built computer is right for you.

Is it reliable?

Most people who purchase a prebuilt computer do so because it’s easier. Building a computer is time-consuming and stressful, and there are so many different components you need to install correctly, that it’s not the type of thing you’d hope to learn from YouTube.

It’s also very probable that if you try to build your own computer at home, you’ll get something wrong and end up with a buggy system. And for most of us, having a reliable machine is the essential factor driving our purchase decision.

Having a machine made for you by professionals with decades of knowledge of personal computers, is the perfect solution. You’ll end up with a computer that more correctly matches your needs – and often has better specs than an off-the-shelf machine – for a fraction of the cost.

 Is it really cheaper?

Surprisingly, custom building a computer is often less expensive than buying an equally powerful off-the-shelf machine. Custom-built computers frequently have higher specs than entry-level model. To reach the same amount of processing power off-the-shelf, you’ll have to pay a hefty price to upgrade hardware. Suddenly, that PC that was listed at $900, jumps up to $3000+ when you get enough processing power and graphics for serious gamers. And unfortunately, some of the components you really wanted, might not even be available to add on to your computer of choice.

Does Customization Really Matter?

One of the best parts of having a custom-built computer is that you can hand-pick every single component in the system. You can fine-tune your computer to your liking, while still fitting into your performance needs and budget requirements.

Since you’re choosing each of the components individually, you can get deals on different parts, or decide where it’s worth sacrificing to save money, and what components are worth spending a little extra for. You’re not locked into a limited set of options. Designing your own computer allows you to create a unique system.

While prebuilt PC manufacturers and system builders have certainly evolved over the years, none of them can offer the same flexibility and freedom as choosing all the components yourself.
