If you ask which one I should pick between a PC desktop or laptop, of course, I will choose a PC Desktop instead. Why? Well, there are a lot of reasons for it, and one of them is because I love to play video games. So, because of that, in this article, we will talk about why building a desktop PC is better than buying a laptop.
The specifications are affordable
By building yourself a desktop PC, you can get a high specification of hardware at the most affordable price. Why did I say that? Because many of the internal computer hardware that is sold in the market by a lot of brands. Let just say some of the examples are like AMD, Intel, Nvidia, and many more. This made the price of internal computer hardware can be various, and that includes the cheaper ones with high performance.
Well, it does not limit to new hardware. You can also get a higher specification of hardware that is in the second hand but still in perfect condition. Of course, the price is lesser than buying yourself new hardware. For that, you can find second-hand hardware in some places, such as a buying and selling forum on Facebook or other social media.
Free to customize by yourself
The second reason why building a desktop PC is better is because you can customize your components by yourself. You can use various motherboards, processors, discrete graphics card, RAM, HDD, SDD, and many more. Not just that, even though they are not from the same brand, a desktop PC will still run smoothly. Well, free to pick whatever hardware you want based on your need. Let just say that you are aiming for a high-end gaming experience. What you will need is definitely a new motherboard, a newer generation of processors (such as Ryzen 9), a discrete graphics card, and Dual or Quad-Channeled RAMs.
This is different from a laptop because you can't customize the hardware in it, or you will lose the warranty for that laptop. Moreover, if your desktop PC's happen to be broken, you can fix it with the component's brand warranty.
As a summary, why building a desktop PC is better than buying a laptop? Well, the laptop's purpose is relatively for common use, but a desktop PC is for something that needs higher performance. Desktop PC's hardware is free to pick, and the price is relatively more affordable than a laptop.
