Why this exists
Most PC building guides fall into one of two groups: a shopping list with no reasoning, or a forum thread where you read forty posts to learn that memory goes in the second and fourth slots.
This site tries to sit between the two: give a specific answer, and next to it the reason it is that answer. The reason matters more than the answer, because hardware changes while the way you think about choosing parts does not.
Where the data comes from
Socket and chipset specifications come from published vendor documentation. Cooling performance ranges are realistic bands for a whole class of design, not headline figures from one product page.
Prices are indicative and each carries the date it was checked. A price without a date is worse than no price at all — it goes stale quietly and the reader has no way to tell.
Community opinions are quoted with their source and collection date. They are not verified reviews; they are individual voices from public forums and should be read as such.
How it is built
The site is fully static: Next.js 16 exported to files, React 19 and Tailwind CSS 4. There is no backend, no database and no tracking analytics. GitHub Pages serves the whole thing.
The assistant in the bottom-right corner runs locally against a built-in knowledge base — it sends nothing outward unless whoever deploys the site deliberately configures an external API.
The code is open source. If you find a factual error, an issue on GitHub is the fastest route to getting it corrected.
