What Would You Do?
Build a Custom Computer or Upgrade
the One You Already Have. .
That is the Thousand Dollar Question!

• Is your current computer too slow?
• Can't run the latest and greatest software?
• Your friends laugh at your Model-T?
• Video resolution too low for your game?
• Not enough space on your hard drive?

These are a few of the reasons to want a new computer.

Now for the bad news - Cost! How much is it going to cost you if you go to the local electronics store and buy a brand name or even a no name computer? If you added up the cost of all the parts you would need to upgrade your current computer or build a higher quality computer that you were drooling over in the electronics store it would be less than half the cost.

Why? Labor! Even when the computers are made in a far away country the cost of labor and shipping adds up. And guess what? I know where the labor is FREE! Yup free labor, look in the mirror.

Now don't get me wrong here, the idea isn't building a super low cost pc, although that can be done, but a high quality computer that will out last the current crop of the 'Latest and Greatest' by five years or more.

How do you build a custom computer or upgrade the one you have you ask?

Well you could do a lot of searching on the web, the information is all there, all over the place, all jumbled up. There are some special forums (like my Members Only section) that will give you all the hints and help you need to do either job.

How ever I have written a couple of guides that will help you through the rough spots and give you insight to things you will not find on the internet and in some special forums.

These e-books have over 30 pages and over 30 illustrations. They walk you through the process of building the computer step by step from how to select the right parts for your new computer to the final step of making it faster than a pre manufactured computer.

Why go the 'roll your own' route?

• First and for most is the cost savings of upgrading or building your own custom computer.
• When you are done you have an upgrade path that for most pre manufactured computers is not there. Pre manufactured computers are very proprietary in the parts and case when they are designed, most are very limited on the parts that can be upgraded.
• Higher quality parts for your new computer, this is where the manufactures fall down - low quality parts.
• Bragging rights, no more Model-T!

What is in the Build a custom Computer or Upgrade books?

• All the steps to either build a custom pc or upgrade your existing pc.
• The steps necessary to install the Operating System when the hardware build is complete.
• The steps on how to optimize the Operating System to get the highest performance from the Operating System and the new hardware.
• A handy troubleshooting guide to assist you if something goes wrong.
• Both with a 30 Day unconditional Guarantee
