About Kustom Computers - PC Hardware, Software and Configuration

Our Approach

We want people in the Huddersfield and surrounding areas to experience reliable and secure computing. A well configured PC means trouble-free computing and less frequent upgrades, therefore making the life span of the computer longer. The choices we make concerning hardware, software and configuration are focused on this target.

Hardware Value and Quality

Buying a PC worth its value is a major task. The latest products on the market are not always the best. Sometimes the performance difference can't justify the price. Over time components become better value for money; at other times there are huge leaps in technology. Product knowledge helps avoid confusion and overspending. We keep an eye on the PC market and give an educated opinion to customers buying computer hardware.

Also different PC parts work at different speeds. Choosing mismatched hardware components is wasteful. We choose approved PC components that have matched performance.

In terms of sockets and ports we choose hardware which is both useful and easily accessible. Cost permitting we include:

•    Front mounted USB ports and audio sockets
•    Extra USB /Firewire connections
•    Multiple network sockets
•    Ports for digital camera and mobile phone memory cards
•    Motherboards that support future upgrades such as graphics cards and larger storage
•    Plenty of RAM memory

Selecting Software

We use strict criteria when evaluating software/programs.  Ideal software should:

•    Do its job effectively
•    Use minimal resources
•    Allow for customization and automation (if necessary)
•    Make it easy to transfer your personal data to other software
•    Make little or no changes to the Operating System
•    Have no effect on previously installed software
•    Offer a free version.

Choosing appropriate software can often only be based on personal experience. Rival software companies upgrade features over time and software choices have to be re-evaluated frequently.

PC Configuration and User Experience

PC security should be automatic and protection from viruses and spyware should be invisible to the user. We configure security software to automatically update, scan and guard your PC.

Selecting the right hardware and software configuration involves many detailed choices. We try our best to provide the people of Huddersfield a safer and more reliable PC experience. Contact us for more computer buying advice.
