Hi all. This probably seems like an outlandish request but sadly I'm not joking. Some people (me included) can't afford to buy separate components. So if there is anyone here who knows anything about this please don't hesitate to reply.

P.S. please do not reply with "Build your own pc." It's pretty obvious from the title that that's not the reply I'm looking for. Thanks in advance.

I'm not even sure if this is the right forum for me to post this. For those who do know I would appreciate it if you could send me the link. Thanks again

@Outlander_04 I'm sorry but I don't quite get what you are trying to suggest. The giveaway is long expired and I don't see anything else in the article that would be helpful. If you could be so kind as to point out exactly what you are trying to tell me I would greatly appreciate it. Happy Holidays

Yes that's exactly what you do. Hope you had a relaxing holiday :)

The assembly should take a few hours for a first time builder. You only need a screw driver.

That is an article about a computer built from parts for $350 . Today a similarly priced computer could work for you if you feel confident enough to assemble the parts yourself

Try googling something like "how to assemble a computer"and work out if its somethign you might like to try . Its actually very simple if you can use a screwdriver

Thanks this was really helpful :) A quick question though. Do you know where the shipments of these components originate from?

nooby94 the site he used is http://pcpartpicker.com/ its a great location for putting different items together from several sources. If you look after the price he shows the site info. Looks like most of those are in the US.
