Thank you all for the replies. Getting ready to move back to the states from the land of overpriced korean SAMSUNG everythings and into the more reasonably priced options back home. I never thought really about building a computer but that does seem like a decent option. But that will depend on time. I do know that whatever crazy thing i build or buy I want to still be able to use it as a computer once in a while. Ill have to surf around the net some more and dive onto youtube about people building their own mini super computers. And I appreciate the vote of confidence Keith about my skills but i dont know if they will translate into the computer building category. But Im willing to learn. Chris, have you ever put together any kind of electronic kit? Those usually meant you had to learn how to solder. With a computer kit, I wouldn't expect any soldering and most is probably snap in or such. You'll want to take your time and hope they send decent instructions. Be careful with anything you have to tighten as you'll want to Goldilocks it (just right). I recall Tiger Direct offered computer kits. You get a decent upper end machine but it's no super computer. I've dealt with them a couple of times and their customer service over the phone is decently good but seemed just a tad rushed (could have been a busy day though). It will be interesting to see if Newegg has any kits as they have a strong reputation for good customer service. A kit could be a great way to get some experience with at least putting a machine together and be great for the confidence. Learning how to custom design/configure a machine and get all the parts from not the same place is a much bigger step. |
