HELP ZEN TO COMPUTER

Post by ZenithOfChaos »

Hey AZ,

I hope you're ready to help me buy a new gaming PC, because I can make even the most sincere commission-worker foam at the mouth with my intricate knowledge of PCs (which breaks down to how the mommy piece goes in the daddy piece and that modems are controlled by tiny ghost-dwarves).

Right now, I'm debating on getting this computer. Although, I'm not too sure about things like the hard drive and such.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... If you consider yourself tech savvy and highly opinionated, I'd appreciate it if you would give me any tips before I waste my food budget for the next year.

Should probably go in Tech Help General, bro.

Although now that I mention it, I can't find it.

Way too expensive. A top of the line can be had for under a thousand dollars.

I'd need to fix the wonky site before going any further. It does not like my browser for some reason.
Stuff goes here later.

Guides are good. Thanks. I'm just worried about using the wrong parts and then having to spend more cheddar fixing things in the long run.

Once you've got the parts building the PC itself is really easy. Adequate lighting and a steady hand will see you through.

Yeah building a pc will guarantee you get your cheddar's worth, pre-builts often have a lot of useless crap installed that slow the thing down.

I learned how to build a rig by watching a few videos and general guides and did it right on my first try. Not only is it worth it because you'll get a better deal, you'll also become more computer savvy and will thus be able to solve problems by yourself and have to rely less on expensive helpdesks.

Built my own PC that's about 200% better than that one for 700$ less than it.
