I know, noob way to go with PC's but I do not have the time to build a computer. I need a pre built computer maker which can do monthly payments with no credit check. I'm currently staring down Xidax. So far they look pretty good. What do you think? Thanks!

Seriously, one of my friends bought a pre built a while ago that is terrible for the money and a terrible choice of parts. Also, if you do choose the parts yourself its still overpriced to high heavens. Please, build it yourself. Just reserve a day. Throw on some Linus build guides and build it. You will not regret it and get so much more for your money.

Most of the time with pre-built systems you are paying way too much for the sub par parts for the pricing. You end up paying for labor, a lot more for shipping than you would for just parts, and just paying the company that makes it.

 

"I don't have enough time to build my own PC." Dude, I had never built a PC before and it literally took me MAYBE an hour and a half. 

 

But if you DO end up going with a pre-built, for the love of all that is the PC master race, DON'T buy one with an AMD processor.

 

Save up, buy it all at once, or regret it for ever. But in the end, its your choice. Even if it is a terrible choice.

Cant you just call up a good PC repair store, give them the parts and get them to build it for you for like 50-70$?.

But I really need to do monthly payments. I am flat broke and I cannot do it buying the parts. I would love to build it. It's just the monthly payments.

What pc are you planning to get?

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

Where do you live?

Do you live in portugal? The nickname suggests that..

In alinetech you can pay monthly payments for a pc you buy there part by part.

Look into that.

Then buy a few pieces at a time though that isn't recommended if you have no choice then you have no coice and if you're broke then buying a pre-built is even more of a stupid idea. What's your budget? You could always buy some parts of the ol' ebay.

You will end up paying more money for that system due to interest charges. It's really better to save up as much as you can and wait until you can afford to buy a computer. A computer isn't some life defining moment like buying your first car, or buying your first house where 99% of people will have monthly payments.

Just FYI I have a bud that built a system on a configurator (he is in england) it can out to 5600 pounds. I built the same thing in PcPartpicker/uk and it was 3000 and change. Not only will you be hit with a huge markup, you will have interest also. Save piece by piece if that is what it takes. (if you are like me you will have to buy the part as soon as you have the money or something else will come along and take it away)
