When shopping for a new PC, it’s important to choose one that is compatible with how you want to use it. We break down the unique differences between pre-built PCs and, custom-built PCs.

Once you’ve made the choice to get a new PC whether it is for basic home use, business or gaming, the first step is finding the right one. It likely will not be long before you are choosing between a pre-built PC vs custom PC.

Though system diversity is one of the biggest advantages of PC systems, there are a lot of options out there, so it is not always easy to know where to start.
While there is a spectrum of options available, you generally have two choices:

You can buy a PC that is already been built from a retailer. Pre-built PCs are complete systems put together by well-known manufacturers using basic hardware configurations. They are produced in quantity. These are usually available in local stores and are designed to be ready to use right out of the box.
The downside we find with these is that they are pre configured and usually made with the cheapest parts on the market with no options to change anything.
They usually have extremely average cases with not much airflow as well as very average power supplies.

Another option is ordering your build from a custom PC building company. You select the features and components you want or rely on Kallangur PC Repairs experience and a team of qualified experts to build a PC to your specifications.
