Recommended PCs?

Recommended Posts

Hey everybody, I'm considering buying a new PC. As some of you know, my PC is utter garbage. I was wondering what some of your guy's recommended PC's are. Can be laptops/pcs and also, if somebody knows a cheap place to build a PC that would be great too. -Thanks, Synd

Well, i think u have to give a lilbit more information:

Budget? Purpose? Games u wanna play on it? Special programs u wanna use?

And btw: the cheapest way to build up a customized desktop pc is by your own, but if u never did it before u need somebody with experience.

Well I've build my previous PC (now using laptop, kinda hard to make those yourself ;) ) without doing it ever before and it works :o And yeah, it is cheaper by like half of the price...

Sorry, I was in a hurry on mobile, kind of diffcult, my range of prices would be from $400-$800, and no games with better than Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 specs, special programs would just be the standard cod4 radiant and photoshop(Easy to use on my computer already). I've never built my own PC, but I had an old one that a friend did for me.

Thank you for all of the good advice and suggestions. What I really want to do is just to BUY one. But both will work, because like I said, I have a friend that knows what he's doing when it comes to building a PC, anyways, thanks.

@Ares and Kelm: yeah u did it, but dont be sure that every other person can handle it in the same way .....u need some knowledge, technical comprehension and carefulness to plug the parts together. F.e. that tiny sticks on the cpu...one second of inattention...u know what i mean!

Tiny sticks are not there any more, there are small metal spheres as connectors nowadays (for quite a few years already). Impossible to damage those unless you stand on it or hit it with something heavy :D

But well, all that is really required is ability to read, tiny bit of research and lots of PATIENCE.
