Mastertekhelp - Custom computers

Recommended Posts

Greetings all,


I have recently constructed my own service pitch based on how I have actively been able to help family members and friends. In a nutshell: I'd love to be able to give specialist advice to those who want to buy computers as well offer the service to build a custom made computer. I am highly experienced with computer building, part finding and troubleshooting; additionally I have personally built a number of computers for family and friends.


Please note, as reference to the forum rules, that I am based in East Dulwich just nearby to Lordship Lane.


What is the problem? When buying a computer, you often need to spend a lot of time thinking about what you want to use it for and whether the specifications will be up to your standards. Most people may not understand how each component within a computer works or what different parts do what, and let's face it, if you want to invest in a computer for the long term, you want to make sure everything is 100% right!


Buying a pre-built desktop computer from stores isn't a problem at all. The only issue is that that most of the time the quality of parts used is more or less substandard, truth be told each computer part has an endless range of manufacturers to pick from, usually the pre-built desktops have the lower end of hardware only to save costs.


Why do quality parts matter? Performance, reliability and efficiency, in that order. Without going into too many details with technical jargon, high-quality parts that are trusted among the computer building community will most definitely give you the best value for money overall as well as the best performance. With these tried and true computer parts you can forget about hardware failing on you and having to deal with companies to get such things replaced all the time.


Believe it or not, there is one computer component that should NEVER be compromised on for safety reasons above all. This part in particular is the power supply; I would be willing to guarantee that 99% of computers in store use a low cost, low quality power supply. The power supply is the soul of the computer, it is the reason the computer works, a low quality one could be a significant safety hazard.


What can be done? Well I'd like to be able to offer my expertise on what to buy as well as a service to construct a custom computer based on your own preferences. These preferences can simply be whether you just want to watch movies, browse the internet, play games, use it for work or all of the above.


There are sites which allow you to construct a pseudo-customized computers but these do not go into any detail on what should be purchased for your needs, they do not give any guidance or advice at all. The other major problem with these sites is that they do not list even 1% of manufacturers that you can buy from for each part, everything is rather vague so you wouldn't be too sure what you are getting. I'd love to be able to completely eliminate this ambiguity and just tell people what does what, what to buy as well as what would be recommended for best reliability and performance.


If you would like some advice or some idea of what a custom computer might involve, please contact me with a rough price range you would like to stick to and what you would like the computer to be aimed towards, such as gaming, work or anything else.


If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask. I hope I have not written too much!

I recently had a custom computer built by Abdul. I was looking for a fairly cheap computer between 300-500 pounds that I could use for my business.


The computer cost me less than half of what something in PC world would have been with more or less the same specs. I had a flash drive installed, and I must say that my computer loads everything up in less than a few seconds, people really don't tell you about this kind of stuff!


I am well happy with the advice given on what quality parts were used and all questions I had were answered promptly.


Highly recommended.

    • Another recommendation for Leon. He was able to come out to our electrical elergency within 24 hours of me contacting him. His communication was great and whilst he could not solve our problem, he was able to perform tests to identify this and did so quickly and efficiently. He charging  is very fair and his manner very pleasant. Both of these in contrast to some experiences I have had elsewhere.    happy to put my name to recommending Leon. His number is  07707 925039.
    • Other than acting as 'interested parties' Southwark Councillors have no responsibility for water issues. And no real leverage either. Considering the complete disdain with which Thames Water treats its own Regulator, and the government, (let alone its customers) I doubt very much whether an entire battalion of councillors would have much impact. What powers could they exercise?
    • That may not be so - many on this site are experts in many areas - you yourself claim huge traffic management (or similar) expertise for instance. And I think you will find that Southwark employees are unlikely to support criticism or challenges to Southwark policy - why, you don't and you apparently neither live in, or vote in, the borough. Do you, however, work for it, as you are such a cheerleader? If not, then you are the most passionate disinterested person on this site, as regards so many aspects, not just traffic.
    • Rather than have a go at Southwark,  contact them, they will employ at least one arborist who will know far more than most people on this site. Here's one: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shaun-murphy-morris-03b7b665/?originalSubdomain=uk
