Why buy a Custom-Built Computer?

Buying a Custom-Built Computer affords you the ability to buy a computer which is no more or no less than you need or want to pay for.

All individual components installed in a hand-built computer must meet Industry Standard Architecture standards. This means that all of the parts in your computer will be top-shelf and easily exchangeable or upgradeable when necessary.

Buying a custom-built computer is usually no more expensive than buying one with a brand name and has certain benefits. Custom-Built Computers are always more simple and less expensive to upgrade or repair down the road. This is because the parts are all separately installed and therefore easier and cheaper to replace. Also, customers receive original distribution diskettes (CD format) of installed software which means no having to take home your new computer and make backups of the installed software yourself !

Finally, when you buy a custom-built computer, you get exactly what you want and need. Why pay for hardware and software that you may never use?

Pre-built Versus Custom Built Computers

Deciding whether to buy or build a computer can be a tough question to answer. Buying a pre-built computer is the option many people choose the first time around and quickly learn the disadvantages that we will explain to you below. Among all the marketing hype and catch phrases it is hard to see what you are really getting until you have already made the purchase. Having learned the first time around of these disadvantages, we often see both home and business users when they are buying their second and consecutive computer systems. There are some wise users who have learned from the experiences of others and buy their first computer from us. These customers remain satisfied with the decision, the quality of product and level of service they receive and hence they stick to our systems through their entire life. They are our best marketing tool as they make many good recommendations to family and friends when they are shopping for a computer system. We truly believe that a satisfied customer and word of mouth is the best advertising we can do.

Advantages of buying a pre-built computer.

The main advantage of buying a pre-built computer is price. You can purchase a pre-built computer for as little as $400 complete with everything the average user needs. To sweeten the deal, OEM vendors will often bundle software so that you can began using your computer right out of the box. That, however, is about where the advantages end.

Disadvantages of buying a pre-build computer.

There are two major disadvantages of buying a pre-built computer. The first is that some OEM will using proprietary parts. In many cases, that is not an issue. However, when you attempt to replace or upgrade a part you will find yourself at the mercy of the OEM. OEM's will charge as much as 5 times the cost for replacement parts. You may also find that the failed proprietary part is no longer available. Murphy's law will almost always cause a part to fail after the warranty has expires. Support is generally provided through the OEM and some 3rd party support vendors will decline repairs depending on the proprietary sub-systems on the computer.

The second disadvantage is that you can not be sure about the integrity of the parts used. Some OEM's will buy defective lots at a substantial discount and integrate them into the computer. As long as the computer pass the OEM's benchmark and quality test the machines will ship to the end users with the defective part. My experience has been that most OEM's will provide users with very nice and well built cases, but will include a cheap motherboard, hard drive, etc. Since computers have almost no moving parts the chances of failure drops dramatically. However, cheap parts will increase the chances of failure or "glitches" as we like to call them.

Advantages of buying a custom built computer.

The main advantage of buying a custom built computer is that you get exactly what you pay for. Custom built computers allow you to specific anything from the brand name of the motherboard to the type and size of the case. Every part in it is standard so that repairing and upgrading it is easier and cheaper. You will have the option of building one that fits your budget and if you elect an inexpensive motherboard it's your decision. Support is also provided by our local service center and not any 3rd party company located overseas whom you have to break the language barrier before you attempt to even attempt to tackle the language of computers.
