TechSpot - PC Technology News and Analysis

Since the TS guides need to updated frequently as new technology keeps appearing, I was wondering whether or not we could have a PC build guide in the forums that could be frequently updated with community support, much like my other thread. It'd also save people from creating threads specifically for builds and allow people to get the best bang for their buck. What do you think?

That would be great. The ONLY problem would be the fact that we'd have to go and do almost every budget to be a very good guide. Starting from 400 on, we could make it to where everytime better stuff comes out (or the stuff gets cheaper) we add/take away something.

The existing information in the guides is pretty good. With thousands of motherboards, power supplies, and operating systems options available, however, it would be extremely difficult to keep up with all the changes, and make recommendations.

Soon the buying guides will be replaced by the hardware leaderboards which are easier to maintain - as you will have noticed we keep falling behind with the buying guides so we will have to ditch them for the time being.
