Building computer from parts is easy!

All you need to know about cheap PCs and low priced parts you can find on this site.

Whether you are looking to upgrade your current system with a new low cost computer model, or are interested in buying a second PC for a school age child, there are great deals available everyday on quality computer systems.

Finding inexpensive computers and hardware for them has never been easier. Unfortunatly, the experts would like you to think there is some magical formula that goes into building a computer. I can tell you that is not the case. Anyone can build a workstation from components if they just take a little time to learn how. My simple tutorial, How to Build a Computer from low-priced Parts, will take you step by step through the process.

If you would like to see an overview of the required components for building your own PC you can view my Guide to Cheap Computer Parts.

If you are not interested in building your own PC there is another option available to you. Refurbished computer systems provide a great alternative to a new one. A refurbished machine is one that is sent back to the manufacturer for a variety of reasons, refitted with different components as necessary, and then tested and approved for resale by the manufacturer. For information see my Refurbished Computer Guide.

Another possibility if you are looking to save money on your next PC purchase is to look into barebones computers. They can really save you money by reusing components you already have and doing some of the work yourself.
