Budget PC task
Our task
The task was to design a fully functional pc setup with a budget of £950. The setup needed to include; a printer, keyboard, mouse, headset, speakers, computer and wifi plan.
How we did it
I was in a group with 2 of my friends so we each looked at different sections of the setup. We created small sections on a word document for each component and included links and prices.
​
For the computer and keyboard and mouse, we looked at bundles to cut cost as well as make organisation easier. We were able to find a pre-built gaming computer for only around £400, we were also able to find a keyboard, mouse and headset bundle from amazon. Both of these bundles really helped with the cost and made it so we had more time to focus on other aspects of the project.
Did I enjoy it
I really enjoyed the task because of how different it was to the other assessments we had previously done. It was more research based and i was already familiar with things like computers and computer accessories. Staying within the budget was also very possible. The budget wasn't outlandishly small, but it wasn't so big that we could just choose what ever component we wanted. I liked the way the project made me think.
