Custom gaming computers and what you should know about them
There are several Custom Gaming Computer designers in the market to choose from but they do not always offer full details about the components that make up the computer itself, or they limit your choices to what they have in inventory.
A gaming computer's performance is determined by the type of motherboard, memory (RAM), processors, the cooling systems, power supply, video card capabilities and so forth. A custom built gaming computer with a low efficiency processor is likely to be coupled with an equally poor motherboard and vice versa. This is done in order to balance out the CPU and motherboard specifications. To obtain proper system specifications you need to check the system requirements for the game you intend to play.
Assembling your own computer is generally cheaper and more satisfying than buying a ready-made custom built gaming computer. This is because you get to choose the components you like best and cheap in the sense that you can use components that are upgradable in the future. When assembling a custom gaming computer you should buy the processor separate from the motherboard. The main reason for this is to ensure that you get a motherboard that can handle a faster processor than the one you have purchased.
This will in turn help should you need to upgrade the processor in the future. The motherboard should be one with several expansion slots for memory and PCI. It should also have as many USB ports as possible. The motherboards in the market are mainly for AMD and Intel processors. The best AMD chipset suited for gaming and high intensity applications is the AMD 890FX. It uses DDR3 memory, has CrossFire, USB 3.0 and also SATA-III capabilities. For Intel, the X-58 is the most advanced motherboard with CrossFire and SLI support, several USB and SATA ports and a 3 channel DDR3 RAM. It also supports the latest Intel processor, LGA1366 i7 CPU. Heat dissipation is a major concern for custom gaming computers since it determines the working lifespan of the processor.
Most processors can be overclocked for faster operation but this causes the cooling system to be quite noisy and also less efficient. You thus need a cooler which lowers temperatures fast but also silent in operation. Water cooling is a popular alternative to fan based heatsinks for their effectiveness and for their near silent operation. Most custom built gaming computers use a DDR3 RAM of about 4 GB or more.
This choice is based on a good combination of efficiency and price. 4 GB may seem too much but the operating system, say Windows 7, requires 1 GB RAM to run well and so the other 3GB should provide a really good gaming experience. The video card is very crucial to enable any custom gaming computer to support demanding games. Common video cards are ATI Radeon and nVidia GeForce. Other components needed include SATA drives, 3D sound cards, DVD-ROM, suitable casing with at least 300W power supply, LCD monitors along with joysticks and internet connections. Gaming grade peripherals such as high quality speakers, headsets, mice, and keyboards have a robust and diverse market to choose from.
