Custom-built computers can consist of components from many different manufacturers, or the same one for pretty much everything. The beauty of custom builds is the flexibility of the entire system. Brand names offer great power or warranties or durability, but the idea of custom-builds is the personal ability to change ANY thing in the system. From upgrading the processor, to adding more hard drives to changing the case, without having to worry if the internal cabling is even compatible with the pinouts of any device or motherboard. We here at cth-computers have, since 1998, discovered that the mid to higher end ASUS brand motherboards are our boards of choice. Of course, we can and do deal with many other manufacturers. We have available our own custom built designs for you to purchase. Again, the beauty of all this is the ability to expand/alter/change anything in the system.

Skill One

Decide what you want the computer to do. Choose a motherboard. From office work to game playing. And you don't need a $3,000 rig to play games. Unless of course you want to LAN-party with the big boys

Skill Two

Choose your components. From the processor right on through to the optical drive. But do your research. They all need to play nice with each other.

Skill Three

Put it all together. If you've done your research, and understand why things do or don't work together, it will all turn out great.
Time to work or play!!
