From simple jobs such as typing a letter, to edit a photo or send a letter via e-mail, can be performed by the computer.

We may not pressing the price is lower, but we can make trick to purchase of a computer in accordance with our needs. Well, if you want to buy a computer while the limited funds, here are some tips: 

Office Class 
Computer is used only to type only (Office Class) certainly does not need a computer with high specifications and expensive. Enough if the computer is able to run office applications (eg, word processing and spreadsheet). But the funds would be divided to spend some significant enhancements, such as: printer, scanner, fax-modem, and the media player while disc author. Look for a printer with good quality, this is to print the results of the paper better. Basically this class perform activities: typing, copy, print and send, so the device associated with the fourth of these activities must be good. 

Gaming Class 
Computer used to run the game application (Gaming Class) requires specification of the device / component that is very good, especially for a device: display (monitor) the broad, graphics (Graphics Card) is sufficient to run the graphics rendering 3D gaming with enough memory capacity, and memory (Memory Module) computer that big and fast. Graphics card and memory module holds a very important role for this class, find the quality is very good and support the game for next-generation game. Besides, the play activity is usually done in a long time, it needs the card fan and better cooler for the processor. And do not forget some special equipment with gaming, such as the joystick, joypad, or streering wheel. 

Multimedia Class 
Computer Multimedia (Multimedia Class) more on the activities related to: good sound and visual play, edit, and print. Purchase the device that is associated with both, especially: sound card (Sound Card) good quality, display (Monitor), which is big enough, players and writers disc (CDRW or DVDRW), speaker, headset, multimedia keyboard, TV tuner, scanner and don’t forget webcam, especially if you like chatting wiyh others.

Professional Class 
There are also groups of users who want a computer with special specifications that are usually directly in contact with professional (Professional Class). This is a group of computer users with needs special hardware and software specifications for one or two jobs, for example, the graphic design and video editor. Specification of the device / computer components are very diverse and highly specialized depending on the job, the needs of high technology that is used, the level of expertise, and media work. Usually the price for this group become the number two, and technology development (both in the field of technology development work and the adjustment request) to be number one. Tips for this group is the use of funds according to technology absorption, do not buy the device / component high-tech but can not use. Adjust limit the ability to control, run, and produced the paper with the technology used. 
Collect and review the news from a variety of devices / components will be purchased, or the responses and effects when other people use. 

Everything can be searched from magazines (both print and online, such as Chip, PC World, PC Magazine, PC Computers, PC Guide, PC Plus, etc.) or sites such as AnandTech reviewer, Tom Hardware, HardOCP, and others - other. Do not just rely on one source only, moreover it is a magazine or a site sponsored by a specific manufacturer brand. Usually any posts or reports of many more people can be trusted, because of differences in time between the device / component is tested in the laboratory with that used by most people. Test results conducted by the magazine or website is usually generated from the device / component manufacturer selection, not the objects circulating in the market. So do not wonder if any magazine or site recommend a device that they are very good, but the market turns the device is less good. Another source of information where we find a good while to ask is on the site forum. 
Ask and compare it to many shops / distributor device / component. 

The more we ask, the more we freely choose. Buy a computer can be high risk if we only come to ask just one store to buy a ago. Ask your friend or your relatives is good to make better decision.
With friends or relatives who have enough knowledge about the device / computer components we will feel safe and comfortable. Ask as much as possible a knowledge. Try to give freedom to him to give opinions. 
Watch what can be offered by a store retailer. 

In addition to the device / component itself, there are some important things that need to know when we buy a computer : After Sales Service (system warranty, the type of service offered, whether the store can accept Trade-In, and others), service location, phone number , the availability of backup devices (stock). Try to do the test on the device / component that will be purchased in a store retailer. Also compare price list that you can with computer online sites.


I hope this can help you to make better decision buy a computer.
