What Should I Include in a Computer Build for Cybersecurity Studies?
Asked by

A few weeks ago, I shared that my fiancée is graduating with her degree in cybersecurity. She's been struggling with her coursework on her laptop and has mentioned wanting a PC instead. I want to surprise her with all the necessary components for her to build her own system. If you had a budget between $2500 to $3500, what would you recommend for a solid computer build? I'd appreciate your advice and would love to keep the feedback positive, as this is a really exciting time for us!

That budget is pretty hefty for just study purposes unless she needs to run multiple virtual machines for her classes. What kind of assignments will she be working on? It helps to know if it’s mainly coursework or if she’ll also be gaming on it.

CuriousMig: Right? If she's just using it for basic studies, a budget that high seems excessive unless there's a lot of VM work involved!
