Week 3 Posting - Genesis Perez

Do you really know what CPU to buy? 

After some hefty research on CPU's and their importance to the consumer, I concluded that the value of the CPU is very subjective. Hence the title of the post, finding the value of a CPU and its purpose should be put into consideration before making a purchase. Is it for gaming? Is it for entertainment purposes? Is it for your job or career? Buying a CPU before the motherboard is crucial since everything around the CPU is not as important as the device itself. For example, if you do the opposite manner, the CPU may not be adaptable or compatible to the motherboard, hence wasting money and resources on a situation that could have been avoided. Another thing to consider is to purchase a CPU new and not used. Although it saves money to buy devices used, but the CPU is on a different tier when it comes to condition and volatility. The consumer may not be aware of the condition of the hardware regardless of what the seller claims it to be. Finally, the CPU is not the only device that operates a computer. The consumer must take into consideration the type of memory, GPU, and PCI ports. I suggest not investing solely all your budget in the CPU. If you spend 50% of your budget on your CPU, the rest of its neighboring components will not be as strong or high end as the purchased CPU. At the end of the day, consider these tips and advice when it comes to purchasing your next CPU.
