it depends on your budget,
if your looking for a high speed and powerful performance PC then you should buy a new one just after Christmas when the sales are on.
if you are just looking for a normal PC that can handle basic computer jobs and usage then best to buy a used buy almost brand new, therefore it wont be too old to handle your general needs
=D
so i suppose the best value for money would be to just buy an old one that is said "as good as new" or "mint condition"
hope this helps you decide
=D
"Well there are benefits to both a new computer and an old one. New computers are virus free, undamaged, and generally have more memory, but they can be expensive. Used computers cost less, can sometimes even have programs on it, such as Microsoft, but there is also a potential for viruses and bugs."
Buying cheap computers can initially save some money, however computers that are priced lower are usually priced as such because the software is only basic and will soon be defective.
buy a new videocard :)
a new better computer is an new one
If you really know about computers and have access to cheap computer parts and how to use it, it is not a bad idea. Otherwise, buy a new computer. In today's market, it's often cheaper to buy brand new parts, even just a brand new computer entirely. If you do buy used, then be sure to find a reputable dealer in your area that has tested the parts and stands behind them.
You can buy them on amazon new for about $12.00, but you can buy them used for about $10.00. You can also buy them used or new at game stop, used are $20, new are $35.00. I'd buy a used one 'cause they're cheaper, but new ones are in better condition.
I ORDERED MY COMPUTERS OFF OF EBAY. THEY HAVE NEW AND USED AT GOOD PRICES, BETTER THAN A DEALER OR PARTS WAREHOUSE. GOOD LUCK
If you need to ask this question, you're probably better off buying a new one.
Buying a computer is a big thing. And it requires lot of knowledge. If you are not sure what laptop or computer better start from scratch. You will get to know how a PC or laptop works. Then you can buy a new one and have the old one for testing new softwares and features.
Computer
New car bvecause its brand spankin new
he should ask what the computer is going to be used for and what brand the custormer is interested in
It is usually better to buy a used Mercedes Benz. The price of a used Mercedes will be significantly lower, allowing one to get more bang for their buck.
Netbooks are the new breed of computers and if u have a lower budget and something smaller as a second computer it is the dated way to go, otherwise notebooks or also compact and can be used as a primary computer just at a higher price.
