250_PC.jpgGrabbing a factory-built PC off the shelf might be fine for students or home users. But if you're a creative professional or are just serious about creating media content, a retail PC won't cut it. This is because most retail PCs are cluttered with bloatware—unnecessary, often low-quality software occupying valuable hard drive space. These store made computers rarely prebundle the apps you really need for professional content creation, such as video production and digital photography. The solution? Build your own PC from scratch.

There's a big advantage in tailoring a system for your exact needs and, if you're methodical, it's a pretty simple process. Check out our easy-to-follow instructional slideshow that guides you through the process step by step at PCmag.com.
