How To Build a Computer Part 2. (Defining
the purpose)
In
this guide we will be trying to distinguish what specific tasks you’d like your
PC to be able to preform without a hitch! If you’d like to skip this part, I’ll
leave a link to a Gaming PC and an Everyday PC, at the bottom of this blog
post!
Starting
off with a very important point, the price of your PC will vary drastically depending
on its purpose and intended use. For example, if you’d like a Gaming PC, I
would recommend being prepared to pay well over $1000, in order to have the
most pleasant and reliable experience in today’s day and age. An everyday
computer build would usually set you back less that $1000, in my opinion the
range should be similar to what you’d be paying, for a flagship mobile phone. (Somewhere
between $400-$1000.) An everyday computer should be able to handle simple
software such as Microsoft Word and Google! As the price of Graphics cards
continues to skyrocket due to their high demand.
A
brand-new NVIDIA graphics card could alone set you back $400 to $1600! Yup, that’s
almost the price of an everyday computer alone! However, graphics cards can
last you anywhere between 5-10 years, of course depending on what games you
indent to play! As well as graphics cards, CPUs are also fairly expensive.
According to techguided.com the average prices of CPUs are between $100-$900! Spending
such large quantities of money on a computer can be a big turn off for most people.
Therefore, I always say that building a PC isn’t something you should be doing
overnight, but at minimum over 6-12 months! As most PC components are sold on websites
such as Amazon, I’d recommend waiting for big sales, in the likes of Amazon Prime
Day and Black Friday.
