If you have been struggling with the decision to get a new, just-off-the-assembly-line computer or look into custom-built computers, there are a few things you need to consider. True, it is exceptionally easy to buy and set up a factory-built computer, however this may not be the best decision for certain computer users. First you need to ask yourself, What will I be using this computer for?’

Service technicians can help you figure out what parts will be best for a custom-built computer if you aren’t particularly technologically-minded, just by talking about what the computer will be used for. Are you a gamer? Customer computers for gamers will need different graphics cards and audio than the custom computer of, say, an accountant. Depending on the size of programs you will be running and the quality of various components that you are looking for, your computer could end up suiting your purposes much better than a factory model.

Speak with service technicians to ensure that the computer you have in mind really is the right computer for you!
