Limited number of expansion ports.
Usually a manufacturer of Pre-built PC, will not add many PCI or PCI Express expansion ports, only the minimum necessary to meet the configurations offered with that particular Motherboard. |
Instead of limiting expansion ports PCI or PCI Express to the minimum. Our offered motherboards can have several additional expansion ports for adding graphic cards and/or audio cards. |
Limited SATA connections.
A Pre-built PC will only offer a limited number of SATA ports for additional disks or RAID disks. Probably not more than 4 ports. |
Instead of limited SATA ports for RAID or additional disks. We use motherboards with an average of 6 SATA ports and we give the option for RAID disks. |
Limited power supply.
The pre-built PC power supplies are strictly designed to meet the power requirement of the computer, no more, no less. |
We choose the power supplies for future system expansions in mind. In addition, we add more connectors so you can connect more accessories to your system, such as optical drives, disks, graphics cards, cooling systems, lights and more. |
BIOS exclusive to the manufacturer. |
Our motherboards use the latest BIOS technology in the market. You can not only update your BIOS online, but also make your motherboard use new technology previously unavailable during the purchase of your custom PC. Additionally, this updates, allow you add new processors or memories with new technologies or specifications and offer you the option of improving performance by applying certain types of hardware acceleration such as Turbo or Overclocking.
This isn’t offered by any pre-built PCs. |
