Recently I got the idea of finally building a real PC and it got me wondering which parts are actually worth getting new? I'm guessing hard disks and PSUs but it's not really based on anything
too late depending on your arearam getting expensive
>>107536793everything minus the caseunless you buy your components for dirt cheap
>>107536793Just buy yourself macbook.
>>107536793>DIY PCToo late for that. Check the non tech retailers like supermarkets that might sell prebuilt PCs at non outrageous prices.
>>107536793>using planned obsolescence new hardware
>>107536793>which parts are actually worth getting new?Everything you can find significantly cheaper. Look at last generation products as well. Usually it doesn't make sense to buy used SSDs, HDDs and coolers. Buying used PSU is kinda scary but I never had any problems with that. Besides your old PSUs are also 'used'.
>>107536793>>107537081My last 4 PCs were build with used/hand me down mobo+cpu+ram and gpu
>>107536793cpus are worth getting used, same for ram (try to know its historic), cases & gpus. i woulndnt buy used storage for my main solution, but they are worth sometimes, specially if they are serving as secondary on your machine. id avoid mobo and psus, but it all depends; i think the consensus among some is that mobos last forever (like cpus) & that its the first thing to break among others.
