Branded PC or do you self build?

[trevorlawrence]

Hi All,

Recently I bought a new PC from Dell. I am curious to know what you are looking for a new PC. I mean what do you normally do??

- look for a brand, ie Dell, HP etc?
- Build one yourself?
- get custom one built (Alienware etc) ??

Thanks,
Trevor.

It all depends. I have a Mac and several PCs. The Mac is obviously a brand and there's no way to custom build one legally. As far as PCs, I usually build my desktops from scratch or start with a decent and cheap system and go from there. I've had custom-built laptops before and liked them because I wasn't paying for the brand name. But I also own brand names like an Asus netbook and a Dell laptop. I wish laptops could be built from scratch like tower systems but I haven't found any yet.

In the past I have relied on PC computers for all my computing needs. I recently switched to a MAC, and am blown away by it's performance. I have had my MAC for 3 months, and haven't had any issues with it.

If You don't mind , You will show your own buildup PC at this place. I am so curious to see something new. Even I have also built the PC as well. I have also used high configuration for it. I wish that I will show it as soon as possible,.
