Where should I buy a PC?

[JustANewUser]

I mean... I heard it must be static electricity free... What spaces are those?

Also, what tools do I need apart from screwdriver? I thought about something "anti-static", and what clothes are anti-static? Are anti-static gloves needed?

BUILD! Fail

OP. I'm confused of your post. In the title, you ask to where you should purchase a PC but in the post you're asking about what tools/supplies you'll need for building a PC?

*MODS PLEASE IGNORE MY REPORT, MISTAKE*

when building a pc...reg cotton clothing is fine. just down pull it out of a dryer where you hear it snapping with static.
you need a set of wire cutter to cut the plastic tye wraps. two screw drivers. one a slotted and one a Philips head. having one Philips head screw driver that has a magnetic tip will keep you from dropping screws into the case. you also need a flashlight to check for bent pins and to read case wires and mb. just dont pet your long hair cats or walk across carpet with your parts. put them on top of a woodend table. leave them in there bags till your ready to put them together.

Yeah, I meant build... What spaces are right, and which tools are needed 'n' recommended.

Sorry for my mistake.

that's why he said "also", little english lesson here.

go to dell justanewuser and use dell online coupons. i don't think you would be fit trying to build a computer. that's just my two cents.

Heh, I could always pay someone to do it for me for only €30-€50... Building a pre-built PC would bring me worse specs.

And why don't you think I can do it >__> ?

that's not necessarily true, there's noting wrong with pre builts, the online coupons are a bargain deal usually. i remember getting 1,000 dollars off a dual xeon before. it depends if you were willing to search for those coupons.

well, your asking if you need anything, i was like "what the hell". basically a screwdriver, that's about it. lol

i'm a pro at building computers. but it saves you a headache to get a pre built. i have experience on both, pre built and custom. but i'm not going to lie to you, i'm building a custom right now and waiting for parts, but preferably i prefer prebuilts.

 

[JustANewUser]

Wow, I meant other recommended though not necessary tools >__>

Heh, if you do prefer pre-builts, why are you building a custom one? I guess it is the same reason as me...

I don't want pre-built just because of the money, but also it can be funny to build a custom PC lol. Though there's risk as well!

 

[smorizio]

just your best bet right now look on new egg and you tube at all the build a pc videos and learn from them.

@justanewuser

i wanted to try out a custom build that's why. i wish i hadn't, i fried some of the parts, it happens. i mean, it was fun, but i already invested in it.

that's not necessarily true that's it's cheaper, dell offers superb deals with coupons online. that's what i did when i bought a pre built. it was a thousand dollars off. so it's cheaper to get a prebuilt. i only use power computers anyways, so dual xeon was a must.
