Terence McCann Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 I've been building computers since the 80's, it's really very easy to do. The best place to buy your computer parts is New Egg ->http://www.newegg.com/ Great service as well as great prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swolsen Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I build all my computers but I get the parts from various places. I use pricewatch.com to get low prices available at the time for hardware. If I build a Windows box then I look for an OEM version of the OS other wise if I build a server I usually use Linux Fedora Core which is free.

blunsford Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Or just call Dell. They'll build it for you and you have none of the hassel, plus 24 hour tech support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgbinspect Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I've been building my own and my kid's pc's for years also. You can usually build a "buckle your seat belt" pc for about $700.00 which sounds expensive, but a truly comparable pc pans out to be 2 to 3 times that.
