  Building on the success of the original manual, this fully revised, updated and expanded second edition brings the reader right up to date with ever-changing technology. The aim remains the same - why buy an off-the-shelf beige box when you can custom design and construct a PC that perfectly fits your needs and your budget? - and ease of understanding is emphasised as we steer the enthusiast through the jargon from motherboard to monitor. In this edition, we have increased the emphasis on data security and thrown a little home entertainment into the mix.

  Intended for the enthusiast looking for an alternative to off-the-shelf computer systems, this manual considers both cheap secondhand components and state-of-the-art technology. It cuts through the jargon and demonstrates how easy it is to create a custom-built computer from scratch using little more than a screwdriver. Readers will understand how computers actually work, save money and, most importantly, learn how to design and build the perfect PC that matches their needs both now and in the furture. The end result should be the only computer they ever need.
