Computer Parts
When it come to Computer Parts I often get asked by a customer is should I use the parts from my old computer in a new computer. My advise is if the computer is more than three years old I would advise the customer not to use the older parts. You would be better in the long run to go with all new parts. This is generally because you will have all new updated components that have manufacturers warranties on them. I have seen way too many times when a customer has had the pc service center use their old parts only for them to fail a short time down the road and then they have to come back and are not happy. So do yourself and the pc service center a favor and go with all new pc components. As a rule industry says that computer components are old as soon as they are out in the public.
If you are purchasing a computer part from a computer service center or store watch how the computer part is packaged. In other words does the package look like it's already been used. Has any tape on the package been previously opened. Also is the computer part is a esd static bag where it is not sealed or looks like it's been resealed. I have seen service centers use a computer part for testing purposes only to put it back on the shelf and sell it as new. These are very poor business practices and these service centers should be avoided.
So finally for all your computer parts I would check out any reviews on the particular component you are thinking of buying. Amazon and Ebay can provide some very excellent reviews. Some of the dealers on the internet may also provide some reviews. One trick I would watch out for is the service center the writes there own reviews. Does this happen well unfortunately yes it does. Sometimes you can tell, because they service center uses some strange name or they write the review in a way where you just can tell it's not a legitimate customer. Well I hope this give a little insight on using computer components in your computer builds.
