Need help: Buying a pre-build desktop
Look forward to see more advice for buying a new desktop. My current computer is running with Intel Core2Duo chipset and 4GB RAM on Windows 7 (upgraded from Vista few years ago). I think it's time for a new replacement. I found a Dell desktop which fits to my budget $850 and I want to know if it's worth the price. As you see, I am NO expert knowledge on computer technology and I do not play video game. I use my computer for video streaming while working on Microsoft Word / Excel for my work and sometimes editing video and photos for leisure.
