[quote=@Gareth] Well, I live in saskatchewan Canada. I was interested in a new computer for the forums here and just typing stuff out like emails. I don't do computer gaming, I mean I might now that you guys mentioned these different available computer parts. It sounds like computer customization could be really cool. Another question: how did you guys get introduced to computer customization? oh yeah and computer budget is max 5k. [/quote] if you're not computer gaming there's little reason to spend nearly $5000 unless your job requires a high end computer, like a graphic designer or something. Even if you were going into the gaming scene, $5000 is overkill. 1000$ already gets you a very high end PC that will run whatever. If anything, if you're only looking for a leisurely computer, you can probably build a decent one for 300-500$. https://pcpartpicker.com/ is a great website if you want to get started. If you have no idea what you're doing, or just want to spend less time, you can search for other people's builds and just get a carbon copy of theirs. Or you can choose to build a pc here, where it'll tell you the prices and what you need.
