I assume, you are the type of buyer (user) computer mostly, who want to use computers for almost all purposes, ranging from typing, hear songs, watch movies, play games and even the middle class. So that you get a decent computer to use for a variety of needs for many years to come.

The first step that you should consider when buying a computer is choosing the right motherboard. Choosing a motherboard can be tricky because so many brands and types. There are two types of motherboards based on the manufacturer, which is Intel and AMD. Both have advantages and disadvantages of each. In the selection of motherboards that 'fit' regardless of any manufacturer-made, there are some things you should know. Is it the motherboard supports SATA hard drive and how many slots are available? How many slots DDR2 RAM (memory) does it have? Do provide expansion slots for graphics card? How the PCI slot? Until the extent of the motherboard that supports that we upgrade the processor?

The first tip that you should consider when buying a computer is to not buy a Celeron class processor which price is much cheaper, unless you really want it. You better buy a newer generation processors such as the Pentium 4 Hyper-Threading (HT), Pentium D, Dual Core or Core 2 Duo. You can buy an Intel Celeron class (eg Celeron 2.66 GHz), computer performance will decrease dramatically when running multiple applications at once.

Tip two, buy a SATA II hard drive type. The reason, this type of hard drive read speed is already faster he wrote (theoretical 300MB/detik) and the price is even cheaper than PATA hard drive type (hard drive older models).

Tip three, do not buy a 80 GB hard drive size. It has been more wisely if we buy a 160 GB hard drive size just because the price difference is slim.

Tip four. Buy computer memory, DDR2 minimal. Therefore, make sure that we buy the motherboard supports this type of memory. In addition to its ability is better, older versions such as memory and DDR SDRAM price is even more expensive. Just look at the price of DDR2 PC-4200 1GB size.

Tips fifth, buy DDR2 memory at least 512 MB​​. Although the computers we buy is intended only for typing jobs or heard the song, but the operating system now requires large memory. In order to use Windows XP with quite comfortably, has a memory of 512 MB ​​had become imperative. The most prudent option, you buy the size 1 GB DDR2 memory (PC-5300 667). It can be ascertained, 1 GB DDR2 memory or above will boost performance computers become faster and able to run different applications simultaneously.

Tips sixth, do not buy a regular CD-ROM or CD-RW. The most prudent choice, we buy DVD Combo (DVD-ROM CD-RW plus), meaning that we can play and burn data to CDs and play DVDs. The first reason, because the price is very cheap DVD Combo. The second reason, now it is the era of the DVD and use the power of reading faster.

Tips seventh, make sure the pick motherboards PCI slots are enough. As much as possible the motherboard has a 1x PCI Express x16, 2x PCI Express x1, and PCI 1x. For those of you who want to enjoy playing the game even more awesome, the presence of PCI Express x16 slot has become imperative. In this slot we add an additional graphics card in order to be able to play your favorite 3D games.

Tips eighth, buy PC case with electric power that supports the needs of PC hardware and has a front USB and Audio. Rather than tired or earphones to plug in the flash back of the PC, it is better to buy the casing which already provides a front USB and Audio. Now almost all motherboards provide a front USB and audio facilities, so it is wise if we buy an existing casing front USB and Audio-its.

The ninth tip, do not be lazy to ask. Ask the seller to store the extent of their services in case of computer problems, long warranty, note the address and phone number of the store. It's good, we bought a computer directly to the seller's store. If buying a computer from the exhibition, take time to stop by their store and intertwine communication. You also need to stop by the other shops to compare services and prices.

Other things like the motherboard to support network (LAN), USB port, mouse, or keyboard does not need to worry because the motherboard already present on-board support. So you no longer need to add a LAN card, USB card, and so on.
