| Didn't notice this until now, so I don't know if my info will help you. I've built my last 3 computers, it's not at all difficult if you work on machinery. Figuring out what components to pair together to not waste money is the time consuming part if you're not doing it for a living and have all the specs and price points memorized. But you can get free info on that if you ask for a parts list for a certain price point on reddit if you don't want to do the research. For building it, you just have to watch vids on the building procedures, have a clean environment, and ground yourself to avoid static discharge. You can build a "cheap" computer yourself, and utilize high quality components. Good deals can be had on brand new older gen components. If in a dusty environment, I'd recommend a case with a dust filter. You could buy a used rig, but Windows 10 support is going to end next year, unless you pay for the 3 year extended support (last I knew anyway, maybe that changed). I'd go with 11 Pro Edition, and use ShutUp10++ to disable all of Microsofts shenanigans. As far as screen size, I use a 24" for general purpose use. If in an office environment where you're looking at spreadsheets all day, it could pay to have a larger monitor, or a dual monitor setup. And if you type alot, consider looking at mechanical keyboards, and different keyswitch types. It can make typing much more enjoyable. I like the "blue" switches. | |
