Tips on buying a used CPU

Everyone definitely likes it with cheap stuff, it could be said to be very easily tempted if offered with valuable goods cheap. We cannot say that a valuable stuff cheap that cheap, but it is also nothing like that. It could be a nice stuff there but because the former so it's cheap. Well, if the CPU is a cheap secondhand, how? Of course we should not buy origin. It takes sharp in deciding the purchase of used CPU to our computer. In buying the CPU used, we should pay attention to things like the following:

• Processor

You should see the scars in the CPU processor, what is its velocity? What is adequate with what you need? The higher will be increasingly good. For the moment, can be seen also how the processor inside the core, it's even more important than its velocity. The processor that runs at the speed 2.8 Ghz single core can lose with processors that run at a speed of 1.6 Ghz dual core. Therefore you also need to check the core or core of the processor.

 

• Harddisk

Size is important in hard disk. Not the physical size, but the quantity of data that can fit in it. The larger would certainly be the better. In addition the system also check connectivity with hard drive motherboard, whether using Parallel ATA (ATA) or Serial ATA (SATA). SATA data transfer faster than regular ATA. Then check how the speed of rotation of the disk, whether 5200 rpm, 7200 rpm or even more. The sooner the better, of course.

 

• Motherboard

You need to see of the motherboard is the slot for hardware upgrades such as PCIe slots later, Audio and how many USB ports.

• RAM (Random Access Memory)

This is often called a RAM memory. In today's modern era, RAM 1 GB is a minimum obligation in a computer. The higher the memory, of course will be increasingly good performance of a computer. The operating system will be more smooth running with high RAM.

• CD/DVD Drive 

We recommend that the computer must have a CD/DVD ROM or RW. This of course will affect the price of the CPU as a whole. To note is the data transfer speed of the Optical Drive itself, i.e. the number of times, for example 4 x 6 x 12 x (for DVD) or 48 x and and 52x (for the CD). Although the CD is higher, it does not mean faster.

 

• Hardware brands

Make sure you find out information about the hardware of the internet at the same time the factory info. The brand is very important because the quality of electronic goods are generally very determined his brand. In addition access to after-sales service as a service it would be easier for the famous brand.

 

• Test or trial

This is the mandatory thing you did at the time of purchase of used CPU, just so you know the CPU performance directly. A test you can do starting from Start-up to Shut Down, it would look good if the CPU performance is still normal.

• The price offered

By knowing all we mentioned above, you will be able to judge whether the price offered in accordance with the quality and quantity of CPUs. You can judge whether the CPU cost is too high or not.

After you buy a used CPU, we recommend you reformat the entire hard drive and install a new operating system. The virus is still there could have been left over from the old owners. By doing this, then you will be safe from viral disorder. May be useful
