Custom built PC
A custom built (or assembled) PC is a computer that is built by using either components at hand, or ordering various components to erect a system from scratch.
Overview
A system builder is a person or company who is in the practice of creating (generally from scratch) a personal computer system from individual components. A system builder is also an individual who takes components for retail sale. In many cases, a system builder will specialize in customized or special purpose systems, which cannot be obtained off-the-shelf from major manufacturers. Generally, a system builder gets his or her parts from distributors, wholesalers, Internet vendors, or small computer specialty stores. Internet vendors generally offer a wider selection than small computer parts stores, and normal electronics stores, which are catered towards pre-built PCs. A large majority of system builders are either computer gamers or individuals whose requirements can't be fulfilled by a practical cost efficient pre-built PC. The normal consumer is more likely to buy a pre-built computer than attempt to build a machine due to difficulty and the lack of a technical support team when problems arise. On the other hand, it is usually less expensive to build a PC than to buy a pre-built equivalent.
There are many reasons to have a custom built computer as opposed to a commercially built system, which includes some, or all of the following traits:
* To determine what one wants and needs in regard to quality, price, and availability;
* To make a machine customized for your exact needs
* To recycle an older system, or to upgrade to a more modern motherboard, video card, CPU, and RAM;
* To have a high end machine for gaming, multimedia, or other demanding tasks;
* avoiding the advertising links, trial software, and other commission-driven additions and modifications that increasingly are made to mass-market computers prior to their being shipped; and
* being able to make modifications to the original build at a later date with little hassle.
There are also intangible benefits, such as learning how to design and build a machine, not to mention the sense of accomplishment one experiences upon successfully completing the project.
For the general public, however, the lack of technical support and warranty protection (other than what may or may not be provided by the individual component and software manufacturers) may be a significant disadvantage. However, one must remember that a person who is capable of designing and building a PC will most likely have sufficient knowledge and technical know-how to maintain their system, and will require little "tech support" from manufacturers.
Gaming system
Gaming computer
This is the top of the line system that has the highest quality (on the market) processor, video card, and memory maxed out on it. On the extreme level it may be water (or chemically) cooled, overclocked, have multiple video cards, and/or multiple CPUs working in tandem to provide the best experience possible for the user.
