Which Is Cheaper Or Expensive
Hi All,

2. To Buy a Non-Branded Assembled PC....
3. To Assemble One PC By Own Self Hands....
Please let me know this as i now am thinking of getting one..
so which option should i go for 1, 2, or 3??
Caje

are you saying so because it is actually cheap to assemble one or are you saying this because we can choose anything we want for the PC?

Re: Which Is Cheaper Or Expensive
Actually if u didn't goof up or get fooled, assembling a pc urself will prove cheaper then any other options(provided u get good deals) with the advantage of choice. So just try out ...but first decide ur configuration depending on ur budget and ur needs...

Thanks for that advice man.. well to tell you the fact i want to build my dream machine.. that is the perfect and the last one for me.. no more after that so soon (For abt 5-8yrs) and i am thinking of doing this slowly i.e. buying part by part for the PC so that i can choose the most high quality stuff for my comp...
Thanks

well pathiks just as i said that i dont want to look at the budget..
i have just started working at present so i will somehow manage from whatever i save to build up this PC Bit by Bit or as they say Byte by Byte
well there is no fixed budget... and also i dont want to go for stuff that is way too expensive also.. it should be of a good quality product... that does not mean the best.. coz i know it will be also very costly yaar.. and i have now just started to work.. so i have to save side by side..
it might take me some months to get this done.. but with all of you'll the help and support then maybe i can find things which i actually require and what has to be done..
Thanks

i am thinking of starting with the Cabinet Ofcourse....
well i am now settled in Kuwait so over here there are some cases which are very cool... like for eg i saw one case which is totally acrylic and we can see throught it the entire interior of the system.. the cost is 18.00 Kuwaiti Dinar (which is equal to Rs. 2538)

Here in Hyderabad, no need to pay 200 Bucks... Its free free free...
So, there is no much diff. b/w 2 and 3

Re: Which Is Cheaper Or Expensive
If you are new abt hardware and PC troubleshooting..I will recommend you branded.
If you are expert,than asseble ur self.
There is not great diff in price.Branded are alao available in very affordable price with full support.

yeah U may be right upto sm extent.But there is always room of upgradation in branded system also.Just pay few more and get upgraded.
And morever,branded system has many config to suit ur need.There was a time,when people don't prefer branded only because of high price.but time has changed,Branded are available at very comparable price.
Reason: they have to be in market ,they buy hardware n software in bulk,so they can manage low price.

Re: Which Is Cheaper Or Expensive
Seriously dude, get yourself a Mac Pro or a 24-inch iMac.
You'll later thank me for recommending it.
