Don’t Think About Future Hardware

Here at PCMechanic, forum members offer tons of help to people interested in building brand new personal computers. However, we often encounter a member who wishes to build a top of the line computer and constantly asks whether it would be advisable to wait until the next generation of hardware is released. While it’s essentially the consumers money and they can do what they want with it, we tend to advise against waiting for next generation hardware for a few reasons. First of all, if one is constantly waiting for something “better”, they will never end up building their computer. Additionally, for those who do decide to wait, there is always the possibility that there are unresolved issues with the next-gen hardware and a lack of working drivers. All this adds up to one big headache.

So my advice to you is this: don’t spend your life waiting for “better” hardware as it only elongates your time without a new computer and results in a perpetual process of always waiting for something better. Purely put future hardware options aside and build the computer of your dreams now.
