Buying Guides
Our buying guides are updated
periodically in order to guide you through the process of
buying or upgrading your PC. No matter if you are putting it
together yourself or buying it built, we have got you
covered with guides ranging from budget to the
very high-end.

TechSpot Holiday Gift Guide 2007
The TechSpot holiday gift guide is
not your standard catalog-esque gift guide but one aimed
at technology lovers and PC aficionados. So, dads,
brothers, husbands and sons, feel free to share this
useful list with the rest of the family so they can get
you something you actually want, or use it to guide
yourself through the load of tech products available these
holidays.
High-end PC Buying Guide ($2000 and up)
We have put together a special high-end PC buying guide for the New Year that includes a $2000 'standard deluxe' configuration, a heftier $3000 'Fully Loaded' system, and an additional 'Dream Machine' with no virtual price ceiling.
Mid-Range PC Buying Guide (< $2000)
Searching for the perfect PC parts
can be a daunting task but if you are looking for a
system that can handle today’s applications and games
without having to take out a second mortgage, this guide
is definitely for you.
Unlike our high-end PC Guide where we are willing to pay
for certain premiums, our mid-level buying guide weights
both performance and price evenly. We will be giving you
the best mix of today’s mid-range hardware and include
some of the lowest prices on the net for your
convenience.
Budget PC Buying Guide
(< $1000)
Building a
budget box often means sacrificing quality in favor of
savings. If you are unsure about making compromises, but
positive you do not have the money to spend for a
high-end system, then this guide is precisely what you
are looking for. Here you’ll find suggestions for the
best equipment suited for a skinny budget and show you
it is possible to have a great computer for under a
grand or even less.
Holiday Gift Guide 2005
The holidays are creeping up and most of us are probably in agreement; the only thing worse than giving a bad gift is receiving one. Well, to ensure your preferred geek is appropriately gifted with only the most fitting of gadgets, widgets and thingamabobs, TechSpot is here to assist.
