Whether you just like to tinker or you want to be certain your computer contains specific components, you don't want to spend more on your custom computer than you would on a retail computer. There are ways that you can purchase parts for a custom computer on a budget.

1. Step 1

2. Decide which parts you want for your custom computer.

3. Step 2

   Gather retail pricing on parts for your custom computer from retail outlets, such as big-box electronics stores.

4. Step 3

   Consider whether you are willing to purchase used computer parts.

5. Step 4

   Check pricing at local computer stores. In some cases, smaller stores may be able to offer better pricing than the big box electronics stores.

   Compare prices on a comparison website, such as PriceWatch. PriceWatch provides users with the ability to compare the price of computer parts from one Internet vendor to another.

7. Step 6

   Search for parts on an Internet auction site, such as eBay. In some cases, you will find parts for your custom computer at a better price than retail.
