Where is the best place to buy a computer? Computers Where is the cheapest place to build a computer?

Today there are many different online platforms for selling computers, components and other equipment. These are well-known online stores, such as Eldorado, DNS, Citylink, Aliexpress, Alibaba, Amazon and others.

There are so many of them that it is very difficult to finally decide on the choice of site for purchase. Even though you can find a bunch of reviews about each store on the Internet.

But where is actually the best place to buy components in order to end up with a fairly high-quality product at an affordable price? Let's figure it out.

1.Aliexpress

Famous playground with a huge selection of not only computer hardware, but also other equipment. Here you can find and buy almost everything, both new and used goods.

As for prices specifically for components, let's take 4GB DDR4 RAM as an example. Here it costs from 2,668 rubles with free delivery.

Additionally, for example, let’s take some processor, let it be “Intel core i5 3570”, we see that its average cost is 4,600 rubles and also with free shipping.

Now let's compare the cost of RAM and processor with Russian stores and message boards.

On Avito our processor costs from 6,000 rubles. Since this processor is old and no longer produced, we won’t find it in online stores, so we move on.

Everyone can draw their own conclusions. I'll just add that you can save money by ordering from " Aliexpress“This can be quite good, but here you need to take into account that the average delivery time is about a month and shipping is carried out by mail.

And if you also buy using cashback services, you can get some of the money spent back. In addition, discounts are often offered and promotional codes are issued.

2. Computeruniverse

German online store, which is gaining more and more popularity every year. Huge selection of products, almost everything is here. Components, finished computers, laptops, programs, household appliances and much more.

Monitor

Let's also look at this site using a specific example. We take the Asus PG279Q monitor and see that its price is 777 euros, which is approximately 53,600 rubles.

And we will look at the same monitor in the “E-catalog”. It costs from 54,151 to 77,000 rubles. depending on the store.

RAM

Now let’s take the branded DDR4 RAM “Kingston HyperX Fury” with a frequency of 2666Mhz and see that its price is 164 euros (11,310 rubles).

It can be found on the E-catalog for 21,760 - 24,412 rubles. The price range is simply huge.

As for the rest of the products, you can compare them yourself and choose the best store for purchase.

The downside that should be noted is that it is delivered by mail within a month and there is a commission when paying. Pros: fairly low cost, discounts and coupons available.

3.GearBest

Another one foreign site. There are not so many components on it, but you can find many other products, including peripherals, and the price is very attractive. In addition, there are constantly promotions, good discounts, sales and coupons.

You can simply register and look at this site from time to time. It can be very profitable to buy something.

CPU

And now for the fact. Let's take the Intel I7 7700 processor. Here it costs $300 (at the time of writing, it was 16,800 rubles).

While on “E-Katalog” its price starts from 18,985 to 25,432 rubles. This is already a big savings.

4. Amazon

I think everyone has come across or at least knows about such a store as “ Amazon" It has almost everything, clothes, accessories, equipment, cosmetics and of course computers.

There are also discounts. Perhaps the only thing worth noting is the payment methods, there are only three of them, at least for CIS citizens. You can pay by card (credit or debit), a special Amazon gift card, or a QIWI virtual card.

SSD

Now let's go over the product and its cost. For example, let's take a Samsung 850 EVO SSD with a capacity of 250 GB. Here it costs about $80 (4480 rubles). Perhaps, if you search hard, you can find it cheaper, since there are a lot of sellers, like on Aliexpress.

We will look at the same SSD in the e-catalogue. We see that its cost starts from 6,179 rubles. Already a good saving on just one component.

Monitor

We are looking for the same monitor on the e-catalog.

As you can see for yourself, the difference is already more than 10 thousand rubles. Draw your own conclusions.

5. Online stores in your country

If you want to save money on buying computer components, and not only that, but at the same time you don’t want to deal with all the details when ordering from abroad, then I can suggest you to use online platforms that are located in your country or city. Even in this case, you can save a lot of money, since the price in online stores will always be lower than in regular stores.

In the article I often cited the example of the service “ E-Katalog» to find such sites. In my opinion, it is very convenient, it includes many stores, so it is very easy and quick to compare the price of the same product in several places at once.

The main disadvantage is that it only works on site Russia And Ukraine. Therefore, residents of other countries will have to look for similar services on their own or go directly to a specific online store.

Let's sum it up

Let me briefly summarize all of the above.

1. By purchasing components abroad or in online stores in your city, you will save a lot than if you bought the same product in a regular store.
2. Always look at the cost on different sites, since the price is different everywhere.
3. I also do not recommend ordering too expensive components abroad, because everyone knows how the post office works and the goods do not always arrive in perfect condition. But fortunately in most cases this is okay.
4. I also do not recommend online purchasing of goods such as a monitor or hard drive. I myself recently intended to order a monitor abroad, but in the end I bought it in a regular store; I had to choose for a very long time. One option hurt my eyes (no matter how I configured it), the second flickered, the third didn’t like the design (although it looked fine in the photo on the Internet), the fourth had a light leg (as soon as you accidentally touched the table, the monitor began to dance), Well, you understand what I mean. A hard drive is a fairly fragile device that can easily be damaged, even with the slightest impact.

Where is the best place to order computer components?

Let's first determine the amount of the budget for the PC we are building, and also clarify that this budget applies to what will be placed in the system unit - this amount does not take into account the monitor, keyboard and mouse, since these components are the subject of a separate discussion.

And in this article, when talking about an inexpensive computer, we will mean a budget for assembling a PC “from scratch” of no more than 30,000 rubles. For assembly we need the following components:

• CPU;
• Motherboard;
• HDD;
• System case with power supply;
• Video card;
• Optical drive for CD/DVD discs.

Microprocessor selection

The computer processor is the main center of the computer's computing capabilities, and recently the graphics core has also been transferred to its substrate, so the assembly can exist without an external video card. However, in our case we are talking about a powerful PC, so we need an external video card.

The choice of processor will determine the base platform of our PC. Today, the most popular platforms are Intel and AMD. We will build on the Intel platform, since processors from the computer giant Intel are considered more efficient and economical, although they are inferior in graphics capabilities to their AMD counterparts.

There is no point in saving on a microprocessor, since we want a powerful computer. We will also provide for the purchase of a boxed version of the microprocessor, which comes with a heat sink unit. Our choice will be a microprocessor with an LGA 1150 socket, which is by far the most common. The cost of this component should not exceed $100, and therefore a good solution in this case it will be Pentium G3220 or G3240. Its cost will not even exceed $90.

Motherboard

What we should save on is when choosing a motherboard, but even here the savings should be within reasonable limits. By selecting a microprocessor, we have significantly narrowed down our motherboard options, as we now only need to choose from those that provide the LGA 1150 socket.

Savings in choosing a motherboard concern its layout. We don't need to buy a motherboard equipped with connectors that will never be used - this applies, for example, to RAID arrays. And the more connectors and “wider” wiring, the more expensive the motherboard. For our needs, it is enough that the motherboard has USB, SATA and one PCI-Express connectors for connecting a video card. In addition, almost all modern solutions have a built-in LAN port and VGA connector. In our budget case, we shouldn’t choose from full-size ATX, but mATX is quite suitable. Let's choose a motherboard from GigaByte - this is the GA-B85M-D2V board. It costs about $80, so we've already spent $170. Its connectors and ports are sufficient not only to connect internal PC components, but also to connect all the necessary computer peripherals.

The motherboard we selected has two slots for DIMM memory sticks of the DDR3 type. At the same time, the supported frequency is 1333-1600 MHz, and the memory capacity is up to 16 GB. In our case, at first 4 GB will be enough - we will fill only one slot. However, it is necessary to understand that in 32-bit Windows the user will have access to a little less than 4 “gigs”. A smaller amount of memory cannot place a modern PC in the category of powerful ones, since the same Windows 8 operating environment (64-bit version) already requires 2 GB of memory, and modern applications are also very demanding in this matter. Therefore, our choice will be on Kingston DDR3 4Gb 1600 MHz memory. Its cost is about 50 dollars, and therefore the total amount of our purchase has already reached 220 dollars.

Video card

This is a component that you shouldn’t skimp on either, since it is the video card that is responsible for generating and outputting the computer’s graphics. The higher the memory capacity of the graphics card, the higher the monitor resolution your PC can support, and the higher its bit depth, the faster graphics can be generated and displayed. In our case, we will need a budget option with a 64-bit bus and 2 GB GDDR3 memory. Let's choose a video card from the company Sapphire worth 80 dollars. In the future, it can be easily replaced with a more powerful one. Thus, the total amount of our purchase grows to $300, and we still have to choose a system unit, an optical drive and a hard drive.

HDD

Now we don’t need to purchase external hard drives in bulk, we need an internal HDD - we’ll opt for a classic hard drive and won’t consider solid-state drives. The most common average hard drive size today is 500 GB, but some “terabytes” are only $10 more expensive. If we come across an IDE interface, then we skip such an HDD and pay attention to the SATA interface. In our case, for example, hard from Western Digital WD10EZEX. The volume of this HDD is 1 TB, and the spindle speed is 7200 rpm. It also has a 64 MB cache and a SATA 3 interface, which is supported by our motherboard. The hard one we chose cost about $85, bringing our total purchase to $385.

System unit

To combine all the purchased components, we will need an inexpensive system unit with a 400 W power supply - this power is enough to service the purchased components. Since we chose a motherboard of the micro-ATX form factor, it is enough for us that this case supports motherboards of this particular form factor. But in the future, the computer user may want to upgrade it, and therefore we will choose a case that also supports motherboards of the full-size ATX form factor. In this case, a case, for example, from Logicpower with a built-in power supply for $30, is perfect. Thus, our amount increased to $415.

Optical drive

For full-fledged work, we also need an inexpensive optical drive that can play the contents of CDs and DVDs. We will need a drive with a SATA interface that costs no more than $25.

Our purchase did not exceed $500, but we assembled a fairly powerful computer with good technical performance and the ability to further modernize it. The motherboard, for example, allows you to add another memory stick and a number of expansion cards. The video card can be replaced with a more powerful one, and the case supports the ability to replace the motherboard itself with a full-size ATX version. In addition, the cooling system in the case can be improved by installing an additional case cooler. At the same time, we invested less than $450-500. It should also be taken into account that you will have to spend money on two data cables for the hard drive and optical drive, but their cost is incomparably less than the amount spent on assembly.

Computer technology has become a part of human life. It helps us in school and work, gives us the opportunity to have fun playing games and chatting with friends who are far away, and replaces multimedia systems.

What to consider when choosing?

Before you buy a computer from an online store, decide on the purpose of the purchase. This will help you narrow down your search. The following purposes for using a PC are distinguished:

1. Working with text and the Internet. These tasks are solved by devices of the “For Schoolchildren” and “Office” categories. The prices for computers in this group are the lowest.
2. Medium difficulty games, movies and the Internet. Such universal devices are the versions of the “MicroXperts Outlet” and “Home” categories. They are distinguished by their affordable cost and optimal performance for the specified tasks.
3. For gamers. Gaming models are characterized by maximum performance. This explains the relatively high price of PCs in the online store and in the computer market in general.

Compact models can be distinguished into a separate group. They are used to turn a TV or monitor with a suitable connector into a full-fledged PC.

Building a modern and inexpensive gaming computer

In the online store "PC-ARENA" you can buy inexpensive, but productive and powerful gaming computer for any budget. Overall comfort depends on its parameters. These are the overall picture quality and the number of frames per second (FPS). Agree, it is difficult to immerse yourself in the atmosphere and plot when the image on the screen is displayed jerkily, and sometimes even frame by frame.

Why is it better for gaming? buy a powerful computer, and not a laptop? There are several reasons:

• Stationary systems have more powerful processors and video cards;
• The system case is larger, and it is easier to implement efficient cooling;
• More opportunities for upgrade in the future;
• Opportunity PC builds for a specific amount and for specific tasks.

If after a few years you want to slightly improve the configuration, it will be enough to change 2 - 3 components, and not the entire device.

Key nuances when choosing

Even inexpensive computer can demonstrate high speed and performance if the components have good compatibility. You should also evaluate the overclocking potential of the processor, video card and RAM. The demands of modern games are growing every year. Therefore, our catalog contains current assemblies, giving you a supply of several years. What does this mean? When you buy new game computer, its power will be enough for Ultra, Very High graphics settings. In the future, when new products are released, they can be launched with high or medium-high graphics quality. Therefore, you will not lose the comfort of the game.

The main components that influence gaming efficiency are the processor, RAM, video card and the media from which the game will be launched. The number of revolutions, reading and writing speed are parameters no less important than the gigahertz and megahertz frequencies of the CPU and RAM.

When choosing a graphics accelerator (video card) for gaming computer, the amount of video memory, its type (GDDR-3 or GDDR-5), bus bandwidth (128, 256,512 bits or more), and the frequency of the GPU graphics processor are taken into account. Another important point is the standard cooling installed by the board manufacturer. The more efficient and reliable it is, the less likely it is to fail under peak loads.

The main manufacturers of gaming cards are NVidia with the 10th generation GeForce series and AMD, which owns the Radeon (ATI) brand with the RX line and Vega Graphics.

The processor is the “heart” gaming PC, ensuring its power and efficiency in demanding applications. Better right away buy a more powerful CPU so you don’t have to think about replacing it for a long time. The following parameters play a role:

• Clock frequency;
• Supported type, volume and number of RAM channels;
• Overclocking potential and standard “turbo-boost” mode;
• Number of physical and logical cores, threads;

RAM – DDR-3 and DDR-4, also has different frequencies. When choosing it, our experts evaluate the capabilities of the motherboard and processor. DDR-4, which is faster in frequency, gives a real increase in performance in gaming computers even on inexpensive configurations. The minimum volume is from 8 GB.

A hard drive or an SSD drive that replaces it not only ensures the safety of data storage, but is also responsible for the speed of startup of the system, programs, games, and stability of operation. We will help you find the best option based on the ratio of disk space, speed and cost.

Why us?

It is no coincidence that people turn to our company. After all, when game assembly configurations for PC It is important to consider optimal compatibility parameters. This is not an easy task, requiring competence from the assembler and knowledge of technical intricacies.
