Buying a pre-build pc or building your own?


Computers became a huge deal in our society and there are still loads of people who are just buying a pre-build pc. In todays post I will discuss if its better to build your own pc or to head out to the store and buy a pre-build system.

Building your own pc gives loads of satisfaction, you can be proud on what you’ve build. Its really nice to be able to change everything about the computer. You can choose the components yourself, and if the budget is high enough you can build it however you like. Most gamers build their pc themselves or they hire someone to do it for them

and the reason they are doing this is because they can choose whatever you like. Sure there are some gaming brands out there like Razer and Alienware, but those are pre-build which means that the choice you have to choose the components is very limited. If your building your own pc however you can make it as crazy as you want it to be. If you want to use four graphics card, and a crazy eight core processor its possible but there are some downsides to it.

Depending on your budget, a prebuild pc isn’t as powerful as a own build pc, but there are some things which make it much more reliable for some of the computers users out there. A prebuild pc always comes with some sort of warranty, so if something breaks you can take it to the store, and the manifacturer will repare it for you. Also getting a copy of Windows is quite expensive, and if you don’t know how to torrent and activate an installation of Windows succesfully this could be a huge disadventage of building your own pc. It is possible to upgrade a pre-build pc, but it is a bit difficult some times. If you need some special hardware chances are it isn’t supported on a pre-build system, but if you build your own you can make it supported by buying the right motherboard, processor etc. And thats what I like about building your own computer. You can build it to your needs, and with pre-build pc’s this isn’t the case sometimes.

So if you need a new computer should you just buy one or build it yourself? It depends, are you a poweruser, and do you like to play games or are you editing on a professional level? Then I would buy a pc because chances are if you do those things you will know a bit about computers and you can make a very powerful computer for a better price. If your the type of person who just needs his computer for the basic task, or if you just don’t know anything about computers pre-build is the best option for you.
