Computers are becoming a necessity day by day.But a lot of people are confused about the fact that which one to go for either to go for a assembled pc or for a branded pc? Well as far as im concerned both have their own pros and cons.
From Branded PC's you can be sure of the quality and originality both in software and hardware but the only negative shade of branded computers are that they are way too expensive.The price of a general compaq or HP pc can be at par with the price of two assembled PC's.
As far as assembled Pc is concerned the thing which you have to watch out for is the originality and you have to look for yourself the the hardware that is mentioned in the bill is actually there in the system.Being a Computer programmer I know some program which can show your celeron processor as a Pentium-4 which can be a huge disaster no matter how much knowledge u posses in this field. Moreover the processor that is being used in assembled computers can also be of two type box packed and loose.Obviously the loose processor has no gurrantee and is much cheaper than the box packed.
So if you have to buy a PC first of all chalk out your budget and if you can afford a Branded Pc then nothings better than that but if you are running low on cash and want to buy a pc then make sure that the vendor from which you buy the pc has a good reputation, consult your friends and go for a vendor from which they have bought their own pc.
The other thing which probably most of us forget and is far more important from buying a branded or assembled pc is AFTER SALES SERVICE.Always make sure that goodwill of the vendor and make sure he is just a phone call away if there is any kind of problem either with the hardware or the software.
