What happens is that major software companies, especially Microsoft, build large inefficient operating systems that hog a whole lot of processing power, and drive up the demands. If software were designed in a reasonable fashion, our needs can probably be satisfied with 90s technology, along with a graphics card. The main reason behind my dream to build a PC is an exception to this rule: gaming. If you want to play the most powerful games, you need a PC that can handle them. You can build a PC for well under $1,000 that can handle the graphics and processing of inventive modern games. If you buy a PC from the big commercial PC manufacturers, it will cost you three times as much. You will still spend as much as $1600 for a good gaming PC, if you go to one of the small independent companies that offers to build a PC for you. I have a friend who has offered to help me build my own computer, but I am always unsure. Although he seems to really know what he is talking about, he is not a very practical person. His computer is always broken down and being fixed. There are moments when I think that he breaks it on purpose, just so he can fix it again. I have no desire to build a PC that needs constant repairs. I want to own a PC that is reliable, and that requires as little maintenance as possible. However, I have heard that building a PC is a very difficult process to complete without any expert assistance. Perhaps I should just go to one of those small build a PC companies.
