There is a continuous debate on the benefits between buying computer components to build your own customized personal computer and choosing a store-built, ready-to-use computer at your local store. Apparently, store-built computers provide you the convenience of selecting the model of the PC that closely measures up to your specification, then you bring it home or to the office and plug it and voila! It's ready for use. Buying computer components on the other hand, gives you the liberty to set up your own PC according to the exact specification using branded parts that are more durable and easier to replace when you want to upgrade your system. However, putting together delicate computer parts is not everyone's cup of tea no matter how simple the instructions may be. Whatever choice you make depends on what suits you best so it is important to have a better understanding of the kind of computer hardware that should be inside your personal computer.
The hardware inside your computer including the box that houses all of these comes from different individual manufacturers, and these parts are assembled together under an operating system which is a software that is usually run by Microsoft. To keep the prices of store-built computers popular, distributors would normally utilize the generic parts that may be of inferior quality, and because they have to cater to a standard market, it is difficult to find a personal computer that is tailor fit unless you result to buying computer components instead.

When buying computer components such as your CPU, you look at the clock speed, the cache memory and the bus speeds. These factors determine respectively how fast your computer will run, how much data can be stored, and the speed your CPU executes in transferring data to and from the other components.

If you want a personal computer that will fit your requirements to a T, it is recommended that you build your own rather than buying a store-built unit. There are computer stores who can do this for you, and who will assist you in buying the computer components of your choice. However, if you are not too particular with the technical aspect of your computer and you would rather choose a store-built unit, just make sure that you purchase a computer that contains hardware that are replaceable and upgradeable.
