Back in the early days of Geeks.com, our
bread and butter was the do it yourself (DIY) geeks at home buying components
and building their own systems. Times have changed—we now sell computers,
laptops, tablets, hard drives, and much more.
But you can still DIY with Geeks.com.
So if you’re the adventurous type, and want to DIY with Geeks.com, what are
you going to need? One of the main reasons DIY geeks like to deal with and
install their own components has always been to save money. Sure it’s a little
more hassle and effort to swap out your own parts, and you do need some basic
computer knowledge, but it’s affordable to put your own computer together.
It’s also probably not as hard as you think it is.
Every monster needs a brain, right? “Young Frankenstein’s” brain was
“Abby Normal.” Your computer’s brain is the processor.
When looking at processors, look at clock speed and cores. Basically, the higher
clock speed system can do things fast, and more cores means it can do more
things at one time. For example, the Intel
Core i5-3330 Socket 1155 quad-core processor features a 3.0 GHz clock speed
and can accelerate up to 3.2 GHz under turbo mode.
