This work explains what you need to know to assemble your own multimedia Pc, including how to use "scavenged" parts to cut the cost of your computer even more. Given the tens of thousands of new and used components now available, the price of two PCs with identical functionality can vary by hundreds to thousands of pounds. This book shows people how to take advantage of used parts and scavenge older computers in order to save hundreds of pounds over the total cost of retail or even direct-order PCs. Each chapter covers a specific part of your PC completely, so you can make the right choice when shopping for new hardware. There is also a general set of step-by-step instructions that will familiarise you with the installation process for each part.
