Introduction
Not everyone wants to, has the time to, or has the inclination to build his or her own computer. For that reason there are pre-established computer kits, to make purchasing and setting up your computer easy. There are three major type of computer kits:
Barebones Computer Kits
Gaming Computer Kits
Home Computer Kits.
We are going to discuss each type in this blog, and the major reason/benefits of purchasing a certain type of computer.
Barebones Computer Kits
The first discussion on our agenda is the barebones computer kits for no other reason than it alphabetically makes sense.
A barebones computer kit typically refers to the minimal essentials that a computer needs to run and operate effectively. They tend to run very inexpensive, but are very limited in what they are capable of running and operating.
These types of computer kits are capable of the following and are generally a great choice if this is all you are looking for in your computer:
emailing
web surfing
printing documents.
Barebones computer kits are intended to do the minimalist of functions. For some families or individuals, a computer is a convenience at best, and not even remotely close to a necessity. If you fall under this type of category you may want to look into for the purchase of your next computer.
Gaming Computer Kits
The first and perhaps most important concept to understand with a gaming computer is that when we refer to games we are talking about a system intensive game that may or may not be online such as the ever popular games
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
Crisis Core
Warhammer: Age of Reckoning
The list of these games could be a blog in and of itself. Those were just a few examples, so that we understand when we are discussing games we are not talking about
hearts
solitaire
free cell
minesweeper
anything found on addictinggames.com or bored.com
All of these games can be easily played on our barebones computer kits or home computer kits.
Gaming computer are computer kits that are meant to be able to multi-task exceptionally well with very system intensive programs because who doesn't like to listen to the favorite music while fighting other people online? Gaming computer kits are meant to be able to do all of that without lagging. No one wants to blame their character's death on a slow computer. Blame it on the internet connection!
Back to the computer subject matter at hand. When you are looking at a gaming computer, it will run you a little more expensive than the other two computer kits, but it is intended to do more. Something to always keep in mind: When purchasing a computer you almost always get what you pay for.
Home Computer Kits
Our last topic, but most certainly not out least important is the home computer kits. Home computers are the most common of the three type of computer kits. Not every family needs a gaming rig and most households use the computer as more than a convenience.
For many people a computer is almost a necessity. If we take a minute to look at how technologically based times our today, and how often we are in front of our computer we will appreciate as to why a computer is almost a necessity anymore.
Home computer kits are used for so many things that we may take for granted
Surfing the internet
finding a route to a place we need to get to
watching movies whether they are on DVD or on a place like YouTube
paying bills online
keeping up with friends on social media sites
or purchasing what we need so we never have to leave our homes to look for it
and to many other functions to name them all
A home computer should be great at multitasking, but does not need to have the extensive system requirements that gaming computer kits tend to carry. Home computer kits fall under the category of jack-of-all; master of none.
Conclusion
The greatest thing about computer kits is that there are as many options for them as there are people in the world. It is entirely up to you on which one is right for you. Always remember to a certain point: Your computer is always upgradeable!
