I am about to order my first PC in parts and build it. What parts i bought:
CPU, Motherboard, Memory, Storage, Video, Case, Power Supply, Optical Drive, Operating System.
My question is are you risking quality, longevity or sturdiness when building a PC yourself (assuming you did a good job) rather than buying one put together by factories or professionals?
I'm not big into hardware, or computers in general, so i would like to buy, build and have for years and not have to check up on it all the time or exchange parts etc.
So just let me know if i have all the parts i need for a long term computer.
Also, I dont know how important coolers are and if i should include one. I won't use my pc more than 4-5 hours a day and always turn off after use. Here is my actuall setup if anyone interested:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ($179.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: ASRock H97 PRO4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($88.98 @ SuperBiiz)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($72.00 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($53.99 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 2GB Dual-X Video Card ($188.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Case: Corsair SPEC-02 ATX Mid Tower Case ($59.99 @ Amazon)
Power Supply: EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($49.99 @ NCIX US)
Optical Drive:
CPU, Motherboard, Memory, Storage, Video, Case, Power Supply, Optical Drive, Operating System.
