What are the Advantages of a Custom Built PC?

Custom-built computers allow you an opportunity to design your computer according to your own specifications.

• Configuration – When you selecting a custom PC, you can select every single component. The computer can be tailored to your exact needs, which is something that you can’t do with pre-built systems. Not to mention the options for cabling, lighting, etc.
• Upgradability – It is usually easier to add or upgrade components with more spacious cases, higher quality power supplies, and better motherboards.
  
• Quality of components – You can pick quality components and I can look for individual part reviews and specifications.
  
• Warranty – You get a warranty direct from the manufacturers of the components. Many are longer than the standard warranty from buying a pre-built OEM. For example, if you buy Dell it has a standard 1-year warranty, however, if you buy an Intel or AMD CPU you have a 3-year warranty on the same part.

Pre Built Computer vs. Custom

One of the best reasons why you should build your look into a custom PC is it has the best price-to-performance ratio. One of the other major points of building your own computer is the fact that you can customize it to your needs. Often pre-built computers, the component choice isn’t what you would choose, or does it meet your needs.

I ready touched on it but with buying individual parts you don’t get a single warranty on your own system, but rather individual warranties on each of your components. Warranties on individual components are typically longer than the standard 1-year warranty. Individual parts often have 1 year-2 year, 3, 5, or more on Samsung SSDs. 10 years on components such as corsair power supplies, or even lifetime warranties on some items like all RAM memory modules from Corsair.

One thing that turns some people away from building a PC is that the process of building a computer is harder than buying a pre-built computer and it has more responsibility and risk than buying a pre-built one. That is removed with getting a PC from Eric’s Computer Services.
