People are looking for a quality PC that will last a long time and be supported by the best technical 

support team in the business. For customers like 

these, they may want to use a PC for basic email, photos and social networks like Facebook. However, 

they may want to get involved with other 

applications that require a bit more horsepower like video editing. So what kind of hardware do we 

recommend for these users? Here are a few core 

components and our recommendations that can make the most difference in price and performance: 

Thoughts on the CPU choice for your custom built computer: 

• If you're not flat out looking for the fastest custom built PC, regardless of your needs and without a budget limit, you can definitely save some money 

by investing in a balanced configuration, which means not overspending on the CPU. If you're not going to be doing intensive video editing, consider 

an entry-level CPU from AMD or Intel. 

• AMD's Athlon II X4 and lower-end Phenom II X4 processors are popular for those on a budget. 

• Intel's Core i3 and i5 processors also bring tremendous performance for the money and are a good Intel alternative to these AMD processors for the 

price.

• Have a few more bucks to spend? Intel's Core i7 800 series processors on the P55 chipset are speedy and extremely popular in a YAJ COMPUTERS 

custom built computer 

• The "best of the best" experience can be found with the Core i7 900 series on the X58 chipset. 

But don't overload on the CPU just yet if you're working on a budget - there are considerations that 

may make more of an impact on your computing 

experience, like more memory or newer solid state hard drives.

MEMORY FOR YOUR CUSTOM PC

Memory is an important and often overlooked component in a custom built PC. In today's computing 

environment, a custom computer with less than 

2GB is unheard of, and less than 4GB is less than desirable. For everyone except those on an 

extremely tight budget, we highly recommend 4GB+ of 

memory with a custom built PC. It's better to upgrade to 4GB of RAM before you upgrade to a faster 

CPU. Also, for most consumers, quantity is better 

than speed. We offer some faster frequency memory that is utilized best when we do our performance 

enhancements for speed-freaks and benchmark 

junkies, but for every day computer users, the difference can only be felt in the wallet.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO RUN OUT OF SPACE ANYTIME SOON

Your computer's hard drive is more than just a place to store digital stuff. It also has a tremendous 

impact on the responsiveness of your PC, as more 

often than not it's the slowest component in your computer. The good news is that a new type of hard 

drive technology is beginning to mature and 

reduce in price. Solid state hard drives have no moving hardware, are completely silent and run much 

cooler than mechanical hard drives with rotating 

platters. The only downside is they're more expensive. For the price of a high quality 128 or 256GB 

SSD, you could buy a premium 2TB hard drive. 

That's why our customers are buying more and more 80-128GB solid state drives as a primary OS and 

applications drive, and a 1TB+ mechanical drive 

as a secondary storage solution for their music, movies, and photos. It's a killer combination that puts a 

smile on peoples' faces when they try it out for 

the first time - it's really a shift in performance that must be experienced.
