Almost all of the rules of selecting a
computer for games and offers advice, specific components of the required
parameters and configuration options multimedia computer.
If you mean that you are an avid
player of computer games, Melody and movie fan, and while that is free of
entertainment, are very reluctant to start to go to work / school, entrusting
to perform most of the workers and the training tasks your computer, you will
need for this purpose processor high performance and excellent sound and
graphics subsystem.
So, the first thing you should
consider is the processor. To save on the clock frequency is not reasonable,
because it is known that the effectiveness of simultaneous work with multiple
complex applications limited by the value of the processor. Consequently, for
such a "digital home", which is, in fact, such a scenario is a
computer, the most optimal processor with frequency 2,5 Hz, ensuring better
performance.
Choosing a motherboard also need by
starting from the target destination computer. Moreover, note that the use of a
universal home PC, working with text, graphics, and modern games, motherboards
with integrated video - not the best solution.
Internal memory of this computer
should not be limited by the value of 1024Mb, it would be better if its volume
will be around 2 GB (2048 Mb). With an overall computer performance will only
increase.
Choose the video card in the present
case should be based on how active you intend to operate a PC as a gaming
station. For the purpose of the game is desirable to choose a more powerful
video card, but for movies and the card can be satisfied "simple."
Although, if you have more ambitious plans for a computer game, it is possible
that advice is not to limit yourself. After all, there is no limit to
perfection, as they say.
On the hard disk, you can say that for
the "digital home" to choose its size, following the expression:
"the more, the better." Since the multi-purpose use of a computer
results in a large variety of multimedia applications on it, then one day drive
with a 160-250Gb you will just not be enough for quite a hearty rich-content
storage computer (music, movies, games). It is desirable, therefore, to have
the hard drive volume to 500-750 GB, or even more - here the expression
"too far" is not applicable.
If in the case of a standard home or
office computer is desired DVD burner, but is not necessary, you do not have to
equip the "digital home" drive-reading / writing just drives DVD, can
mean a deliberate limited use of the computer. You simply do deprive yourself a
nice way to view and record movies in DVD-format - agree that this is not rosy
prospect. Therefore, to save on buying a DVD-RW drive in this case is not
recommended to the same and the price is quite affordable.
It is clear that the configuration of
the computer (including housing, cooler, keyboard and mouse) will differ from
the cost of standard office computer configuration described above. For how
much - will depend on your personal goals and preferences.
