Customizable PCs

When you’re buying a computer, it can be hard to settle on the model that’s right for you. It’s not for lack of options – there are more brands and types of computers available than ever before, each offering different features and components.

Dell makes choosing your computer easy. In addition to a reputation for reliability and excellent customer service, Dell provides a wide range of pre-configured PCs that allow you to set up a device with components that meet your needs. On Dell.com, laptop comparison tools help you compare multiple options. With a Dell computer, shopping for computers is a breeze.

When you are looking for the best PC for you, you’ll have lots of options to choose from. When selecting your configuration, you’ll have the ability to select different options for your system’s main components and other add-ons.

Processors
The central processing unit, or CPU, is the brain that drives your PC. The latest generation of CPUs delivers faster performance, as do processors with more cores and higher clock speeds. If you’re planning to use your PC for editing videos or playing games, you’ll want to invest in a faster processor.

Graphics cards
Dedicated graphics cards have their own CPU and RAM systems. They bring video games to life and let you render video and photos in rich detail.

Memory
RAM, or random-access memory, improves performance by allowing the CPU to access data quickly. 8 GB of RAM is adequate for most applications. In comparison, 16 GB is preferred for processing-intensive applications and gaming.

Storage
Disc drives store the files and data your PC needs for smooth operation. Hard disk drives (HDDs) are less expensive and hold more data, while solid-state drives (SSDs) offer faster performance.

Displays
High-resolution and high dynamic range (HDR) displays deliver vivid, immersive viewing experiences. Touchscreen laptops offer more intuitive ways to interact with your device. Widescreen displays provide more real estate for viewing documents and web pages side-by-side. And screens with fast refresh rates give gamers a competitive edge.

Add-ons
In addition to selecting the physical attributes of your computer, you can also choose from an array of add-ons like warranties and software to further customize your order. Whether you’re a designer or just need extra system security, you can get everything you need as you finalize your PC configuration

What is a customizable PC?
A customizable PC is a computer that can be configured to your needs. In contrast to an off-the-shelf model where the components are entirely predetermined, these PCs give you the ability to choose from multiple pre-configured models that have a range of parts.

What are the advantages of a customizable PC?
When you choose the components that you want in your PC, you can fine-tune its performance for the type of work you wanted to do. You can also avoid paying for unnecessary features that you won’t use.
