Buying A Computer vs. Building Your Own
It happens to everyone in their lifetime...getting a new
computer. The thing you gotta think about is if you want to
build a computer or buy it pre-built. What's the difference, you
say? Well, there are certain advantages and disadvantages to
each.
First of all, pre-built computers come with some parts you don't
want or need as well as useless software. On the other hand,
building a computer lets you decide exactly what to put in it
and what to install on your computer. That helps out by freeing
the hard drive, but sometimes computer companies have great
deals on their software bundles. If you know somebody that has
the software, don't bother buying a pre-built computer. You can
just use his/hers for free (unless they charge you haha).
Secondly, building a computer is usually cheaper since you don't
pay for labor. All you do is pick out the parts you want in the
computer, put them together, and install your software. It's
really not as hard as you think it is and you'll save some cash
doing it. One the other hand, if you are absolutely lost when it
comes to computers, then you should probably just buy one.
Building a computer isn't hard, but it's much easier if you have
a basic understanding of computers.
Thirdly, there is no warranty when you build computers. Since it
doesn't come from a manufacturer, there will be no damage
protection for it. If something goes wrong, you'll have to
replace the parts. The bad news? Well, you'll have to spend some
money to get it fixed. The good news? It'll usually happen after
2 years which means it needed to be upgraded anyway. The
warranties by Dell or Gateway aren't free and they will charge
you even more if you want it for 2-4 years and during that time,
you can not upgrade your computer yourself or else you'll void
the warranty.
So if you like do-it-yourself projects or love complete control
over your computer, building a computer is for you. If you don't
even want to think about it or you need a warranty, then buying
a computer would be best for you. If you want any more advice on
