Build a Brand New Computer with blazing potential for a super budget Price!
What Advantages does a homebuilt system have over a Store Bought System?
#1) CPU Performance - In general, entry level CPUs can be clocked to speeds much higher than their default speed.
The reason for this is that Intel uses the same basic CPU for both entry level and high end units.
The big differences are the default speeds to which the chips are set.
In addition, Intel disables some of the extra cache on these chips.
Retail System Motherboards are configured to prevent the home user from increasing the default speed.
This way you must pay more to get more performance.
Custom System Motherboards allow you to easily clock these chips much closer to the potential of Intel's top-tier CPUs.
#2) Power/Power Supply - Most systems come with weak power supplies that make it very risky to upgrade the built-in graphics.
In general, Built-In Graphics is insufficient for many games.
Custom computers can be built with a sufficiently large Power Supply to allow for a powerful graphics card.
#3) Warranty! Yes, This is a surprising fact for many. In General, store bought systems come with a warranty that ranges from 90days to 1 year.
Most parts listed below have a warranty of three years or greater, though sometimes there are exceptions.
