So, you're still a bit unsure about why building a pc is so great. There are a couple of reasons for why people want to build their own computers

The first reason is, it is almost future proof. When you build a computer, you build it with upto date parts. All the parts you use follow a standard and many of your parts will still work with newer parts in the future. Your case will be the same basic shape as everyone elses meaning any part made for a computer is compatible with your case. If you don't buy a video card but then later want to upgrade to one, you don't need to pay a small fortune for someone to do it for you. You just buy one your self and put it in and it will probably work unless someone has released a new standard. If you find you don't have enough RAM to run your favourite game, just go and buy some more and put it in. This is what building your own computer is about.

Secondly, by building your own computer you add flexibility. If you go and buy a computer from Dell, you don't know what brand of parts their using, it could be the cheapest possible and designed to break down as soon as the warranty expires. If you build your own computer, you can choose your own parts. You don't have to stick to what the manufacturer is offering you, just buy what ever you want. You can buy the highest quality parts and custom build your PC to your own specifications. This flexibility can save you money, say if you don't need one part, you can spend the money on another or just save it. Rather than just sticking to what someone forces you to put, you can completely customise your PC.

This is why people choose to build their own computer and just two of the reasons you should learn to build your own computer.
