Hey all...
My computer is in serious need of replacing, and I've begun looking at PC's on sale (I'm in Canada). The two main things I do on my computer are play videogames (mostly MMO's and RPG's) and video edit.
As I've been looking around, the one common thread that keeps bubbling up is that it's far cheaper to build a gaming PC than to buy one, and people say it's not that difficult.
I'm fairly proficient with computers; everything I know about them is self-taught, however. My husband is a software engineer and is more knowledgeable and comfortable with this than I am, so I have that as a bonus.
My question here is--has anybody built themselves their own PC? Is it worth it, and is it that difficult? As I said, I mainly game and edit, but I want my PC to be able to handle the usual stuff as well (my fairly large music collection, browsing the web, Photoshop--things like that).
Any feedback or personal experiences would be much appreciated; I really respect the level of knowledge of users on this forum and I'd be interested in hearing what you have to say.
Thanks!
