So, you want a custom desktop computer. There is a lot to consider.

The objective for building a custom computer is to select a set of components that when assembled produces a system for your particular use with your personal best tradeoffs among performance, quality, physical size, aesthetics, power consumption, ability to adapt to the future, and of course, cost.

Customs are built from the following components:

  1. CPU
  2. Graphics Card
  3. Motherboard
  4. RAM
  5. Storage
  6. CPU Cooler
  7. Power Supply Unit
  8. Case and Fans
  9. Operating System

To select a set of components, start with the custom’s primary task. Custom computers are usually built for gaming, trading, 3D modeling, video editing, or AI. The first step is to determine the performance requirements for your platform. If you are a gamer, what games do you want to play and at what level? What are the recommended requirements for those games at the level you want to play? If you want a custom computer for trading, 3D modeling, video editing, or AI, what software platforms will you be using? What are the recommended requirements for those platforms? The second step is to determine the most demanding requirements, and those will be the requirements for your custom computer.

The components listed above are numbered because the decisions on the higher numbered components are dependent on the lower numbered component decisions. Components 1 through 8 should be selected in that order. Select each component to meet or exceed the platform requirements for that component and compatibility with the components that have already been selected.

In this post, we will focus on selecting components for gaming custom computers because they constitute the vast majority. The principles and methods for other custom computers are very similar. We will not address the assembly process in this post.
