    PC Desktop Computers

    Desktop computers are computers that are designed to be used in one fixed location - meaning they aren't portable in the same way that tablets or laptops are. Generally, they are designed to be more powerful than laptops and are often fitted with higher performance components such as more powerful processors and graphics cards. This means typically they can run faster and are more efficient for particular, resource intensive applications like video editing software or 3D rendering.

    Desktop computers often require peripherals, such as a desktop monitor, mouse and keyboard to be used. However there are different types (also known as form factors) of desktop computers available, and different form factors will require different peripherals to run. These include Towers, Mini PCs, All-in-One PCs (AiO) and Workstations.

    Desktop Towers

  • Tower desktop computers are the most common type of desktop computer.
  • They come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes but are usually tall and rectangular in shape.
  • The components like the motherboard are housed inside a case made from plastic, aluminum or steel.
  • Deciding on the type of tower desktop for you will depend on what you'll be using your computer for and how powerful it needs to be.
  • ebuyer bestseller: Xenta Desktop PC - AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 4650G.
  • Mini PCs

  • Also known as Small Form Factor (SFF) and Compact desktop computers, Mini PCs are much smaller than towers.
  • These PCs are great for anyone with limited space, who wants a compact PC build.
  • Mini PCs also have a lower power consumption and quiet fan, however due to their much smaller size, they sacrifice performance, speed and processing power compared to other types of desktop PC.
  • ebuyer bestseller: Dell OptiPlex 7020 Mini Desktop PC - Intel Core i5-12500T.
  • All-in-One

  • All-in-One (AiO) desktop computers contain everything you need to run your PC in one piece of equipment.
  • These PCs are designed to meet all of a user's needs in an easy to set up, compact and stylish desktop alternative to a laptop.
  • However, due to the lack of case unit, they also sacrifice performance, as they are unable to house larger components needed for high processing.
  • ebuyer bestseller: Lenovo ThinkCentre neo 50a 27 Inch Gen 5 AIO Desktop - Intel Core i7-13620H.
  • Workstations

  • Workstation PCs are desktop computers that are specifically designed for demanding technical programs and work.
  • Workstations are a great choice for engineers, developers, AI enthusiasts and creative professionals.
  • They have faster processing units, larger memory and storage functions and are designed to withstand rigorous use.
  • ebuyer bestseller: Dell Precision 3680 TWR Desktop Workstation - Intel Core i9-14900K.
  • Why should i buy a Desktop PC?

    Choosing to purchase a desktop PC can have many benefits, especially if you're looking to upgrade from, or supplement a laptop. Some of their top benefits include:

  • A superior computing experience.
  • Top of the line performance.
  • Easier upgradability options.
  • Easier and cheaper repair options.
  • Superior ergonomics and comfort.
  • Cost-effectiveness (price per performance).
  • Better performance

    Desktop PCs generally offer better performance than laptops or tablets, due to their larger components, cooling solutions, top of the range graphics cards (GPUs), larger memory and processing units (CPUs). They also offer better value for money than laptops, with more powerful specs for around the same price range.

    Upgradability and repairability

    Unlike laptops, the core components of desktops are readily available for purchase and can easily be swapped out. This means that you can breathe new life into a desktop PC, upgrading as your needs change and as components get worn out with use, even long after its warranty has elapsed. This also makes them far easier to repair - with desktops boasting significantly longer lifespans, saving you money in the long run.

    Customisation

    Desktop PCs allow for both customisation of peripherals, such as an external keyboard, mouse, monitor displays, plus customisation of components and aesthetics. Overall external peripherals tend to be easier and far more comfortable to use and can easily be swapped out for upgrades as they simply plug into the PC via USB/C or connect via bluetooth. Internal components can also be swapped out far more easily, as they don't tend to be soldered to the motherboard like they are in laptops.

    What do i need to look for in a Desktop PC?

    There are a number of things to consider when considering a desktop PC. You should think about the following:

    1. Performance needs: what will you be using your PC for and what specs will you need to run these programs and tasks efficiently?

    2. Budget: what's your maximum budget and how much are you comfortable spending?

    3. Space: where will your desktop PC be housed, do you have enough room for a traditional tower or will you need a Mini PC or AiO?

    Performance specs to consider:
