Build Your Own PC

Building a PC is what originally put PCMech on the map in a big way. To this day, PCMech is ranked #1 in Google for building a PC. We didn’t get to that point by accident.

In our online store on PCMech.com, we sell our full course on building a PC on both book and DVD. Here at PCMech University, I have put ALL of that information on the web.

In this course, we will start from absolute basics and show you some guidelines to keep in mind when buying parts for your new PC. We will then guide you through assembling your computer from scratch. After that is done, we will walk you through installing Windows.

This course contains over 20 lessons, complete with full color photos to guide you along. The course also contains over one hour of video where you will watch us build a computer from scratch. You will be able to build your new PC with this course. Period.

What are others like you saying?

“I just finished building my first computer. Works great. For a young man of 70 I obviously did not grow up with computers, I grew up with model A’s and 55 chevys. Any how keep up the good work.”

“Apart from telling me how to build a computer, it does give help at the end for things that could be be going wrong with an existing computer. And it is written in English rather than jargonese!”

“Using these brilliant products I was able to build the PC with no problems. It made the task so simple. Fantastic products and service. Thanks to you all.”

“I purchased Build Your Own Computer before actually buying the components. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted but to insure I didn’t make some serious (i.e. costly!) mistakes I felt your guide would be some good insurance. And, without doubt, it was. Very thorough, very clear and very easy to understand. I can’t tell you how pleased I am with this PC! It is hot! But what is really great is how easily it all came together. Your guide played a big part and I would say to anyone attempting to build their own: BUY THE GUIDE FIRST! AND THEN FOLLOW IT FROM START TO FINISH!”
