With the end of the year approaching, the campaigns of e-commerce platforms started to become widespread. These campaigns undoubtedly attract the attention of consumers who want to collect a new computer. Because, on some campaign days, it is possible to collect computers at really affordable prices.
In this content, we will take a closer look at the critical issues for our readers who are planning to assemble a computer. The first of these will be considerations of choosing the right parts. Then we will talk about how you can have the parts you have determined at the most affordable price.
Why are people interested in collecting computers?
Aggregated computers are more advantageous than off-the-shelf systems in many cases. A consumer who knows exactly what he wants prefers a built-in computer over a ready-made system. Because unnecessary parts in ready-made systems increase the cost. In addition, not every ready-made system can always give what the consumer wants. As such, the importance of collecting computers increases.
Moreover; collection computers are also affordable in terms of cost. Sourcing parts online helps you get the computer at the best possible price. However, collecting computers is not an easy task. Let’s take a closer look at the “right part” issue, which is the most important issue in assembly computers.
How to choose the right parts when assembling computers?
Consumers, who do not understand much about computer parts, may not be sympathetic to collectible computers. Because it cannot be decided which parts should be purchased, and it may not be known which hardware should be added to where in the empty PC case. It is also necessary to purchase parts suitable for the equipment. After reading this content, we can easily say that you will not have any problems at this point.
We can list the indispensable parts of a computer as follows:
- motherboard
- CPU and CPU cooler
- RAM
- storage unit
- Display card
- Power source
- Till
- Monitor
The motherboard is the most essential part of a computer. Because the motherboard is where all the parts of the computer are put together. It ensures that the parts both work properly and communicate with each other. That is why there is no computer without a motherboard and cannot be.
However, the processor model must be decided before purchasing a motherboard. Because not every processor is compatible with every motherboard. In fact, there is incompatibility even on the basis of brands. For example; You cannot use a motherboard designed for Intel processors with an AMD processor.
After you make your choice by determining the processor model that suits your needs and examining the motherboard prices for the hardware accordingly, you can take action for the other parts of your computer. Next up is the CPU cooler. If the processor you decide to buy has a heatsink, you can use that part. If you are undecided, you can choose a liquid cooling system according to the brand of the processor.
Next comes the issue of RAM and storage. RAM is one of the most important parts of your computer. Because RAM is one of the parts that determine how fast the computer will be.
There are two key considerations that determine which RAM model you should buy. The first of these is the capacity, and the second is the operating speed range. Namely; If you are building a PC to play games, check the system requirements of the games you will enjoy playing. Then specify a capacity that is the same or higher than the system requirements.
After you’ve done the capacity thing, review the specifications of the motherboard you’ve decided to buy. Not every motherboard supports every RAM model at full capacity. For example, a motherboard that supports an operating speed of up to 1200 MHz will not be fully compatible with a RAM that can work up to 2400 MHz. Because the working capacity of RAM is higher, but due to the limitation in the motherboard, it cannot fully use this power. Therefore, choose RAM that either has the same MHz as the motherboard or runs at a lower MHz than the motherboard.
The storage capacity in your computer is just as important as the RAM. Because as the hard disk of the computer becomes full, the working speed will decrease. At this point, you need to determine your needs correctly. For example, if you are thinking of playing games and have a large movie library, you can choose an SSD or an HDD. A 512 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD will easily do the job for a standard user. Yet you are the one who knows your needs. Make the capacity decision yourself.
One of the parts you need to buy while assembling a computer is the graphics card. Graphics cards are one of the indispensable parts for video, game and all kinds of graphics processing software. So which graphics card? There are some things to consider when deciding on this.
The first thing to consider when purchasing a video card is compatibility with the system. Namely, Intel-based computers work more efficiently with NVIDIA graphics cards. You should also consider the system requirements of which games you will play or which applications you will use. If you buy a low-end graphics card, you will experience stuttering in games and applications.
If you have reached this part of our content, we can say that you have left behind the most difficult process for collecting computers. Because after that, things are easy. In this context; you should choose a case where you can fit the pieces you prefer. Safes in the market; they generally contain an internal power supply. If you are not sure, search the internet for the watt values of all the parts you have decided so far and collect these values. Any power supply that exceeds the total wattage will do.
After you’ve taken care of the power supply and the chassis, you’ll need a monitor that will allow you to access the image on the computer. Almost all collection systems on the market today support Full HD (1080p) video. If your preferred video card supports 4K resolution, you can also buy a monitor with the same resolution. Monitors with low latency and high refresh rate will make a difference, especially in games with high motion.
After you’ve taken care of all this, you can also choose affordable or high-end keyboard, mouse and speaker according to your preferences. Also don’t forget the operating system that will run all this hardware.
How to find the best price when collecting computers?
Deciding on parts while assembling a computer is 50 percent of this process. However, there is also a financial dimension. After all, we all want to have the best graphics card model, but unfortunately things change when money comes into play. So what should we do to find the best price?
The internet has seriously changed our shopping habits. We now buy almost everything online. As such, we can reach a product we want within seconds. Therefore, when you want to collect the most suitable computer, you should use the internet actively.
A correct search on the search engine will take you directly to the most affordable price. For example, if you search for “motherboard prices”, you can instantly find prices on both the largest e-commerce platforms and the largest technology retailers.
You don’t have to go through all the sites one by one while searching for the best price. So much so that if you type “empty pc case” into Google, you can instantly access sites that compare prices on all websites. In this way, you will save time and you will see the best price on the Internet in a few minutes.
While collecting computers at the most affordable price, you can also choose second-hand shopping. For example, the motherboard is not a perishable part and is reusable. Second-hand shopping can be experienced in reusable parts such as motherboards or monitors, although not all hardware of the computer you plan to collect.
