There are many different types of desktops out there such as the Dell OptiPlex range and you can easily become confused with what desktop you may need to fulfil your requirements. Here at ITC Sales, we provide you with a guide which includes the things to consider when buying a new desktop.

Your budget

Firstly and most importantly, you need to confirm a budget of how much you are willing to spend on your new desktop.

The processor and RAM

After you have decided this, decide on the processor. This is because nowadays the most important factor of a computer is the processor. As well you will need to choose the amount of memory you will need. This is also known as RAM.

In simple terms, the more rams you have, the more applications and browsers you can have open at once. If you are going to use your computer for gaming purposes or for photo and video editing, we advise you to get at least 16GB of RAM.

Hard drive

The next piece which you should make a decision on is the hard drive. However, people nowadays store their information on cloud storage which may make you rethink whether you need to purchase a computer with a huge hard drive space.

Other factors to consider:

There are many other factors to consider when purchasing a computer. These include:

• The graphics of the computer

• The computer software

• When protecting your computer, anti-virus software

We hope this helps when selecting your new computer. If you have any further questions contact us today on 03333 222 200.
