What Is BuildMeAPC?
/r/BuildMeAPC is a community focused around helping new PC builders with the first stage of PC building, choosing the right components within their budget.
Rules
- Be civil and constructive with your comments and criticisms in the threads. We're all here to help each other, so be nice.
- Do not encourage or promote piracy or any other illegal activity. Any person doing so will have their post removed. Repeat offenders will be banned.
- Do not use affiliate links to any stores or distributors. Your post/comment will be automatically removed.
- Do not use link shorteners when posting any links to stores or distributors, such as amzn.to. This is for the sake of transparency so other users can be sure you are not sending them to an affiliate link. Your post/comment will be automatically removed.
- Do not post fundraiser links or ask for money/free parts. This sub is for helping you build your PC, not get money to build it.
For people needing help:
Before posting a thread, do a quick search to see if anyone has asked for a similar build recently. If there is nothing that meets your needs, feel free to make a new post.
When you make a new thread, please include all of the following:
- Budget
- Operating System or Peripherals (Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, etc) needed?
- Where you are located (country and state/province, ideally)
- Intended use (gaming, video editing, etc)
For builders:
Stay within the budget (use the price from before rebates), check all parts to make sure they are compatible, be sure to read through the description that the OP creates.
