I'm trying to surprise my husband with a computer for his birthday, but I'm not sure where to start! I'm not knowledgeable about computers and would love some guidance on good websites to purchase one from. I want to make this special, so any tips on what to consider would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help!

If you can, it might be fun to build the PC together! It’s a great bonding experience and you can customize it to exactly what he wants. You could even pick out the parts together if that's something you think he'd enjoy!
Before you make any purchase, you should really chat with him first to figure out what his needs are. Is he into gaming, or does he mostly just browse the web? Knowing what he wants to do with the computer will help you a lot!
100% agree, get his input first!
Do you have any local stores, like Micro Center? They can help you choose parts, and they often have staff who can build it for you for a small fee. Plus, warranties are always a good idea!
That’s a great option! Building together means more value and a personal touch.
Just make sure you do your homework. If you want to get a prebuilt, just be cautious of the brand names. Sometimes the cheaper options on websites like Amazon can turn out to be low quality. Stick with reputable brands!
Good point! It's worth investing a little more to get something reliable.
Honestly, I’d suggest just giving him a gift card or voucher for a new computer. That way, he can pick out exactly what he wants or even build it himself. It takes the pressure off you to choose the right thing!
Exactly! It’s better to pick something together so you both can make sure it meets his needs.
