Azure: My new mate

Hello!

So today I wanna talk about some..
Wait a minute, who is Azure?
Yeah so that is my main topic today.

Last week, I have bought a custom PC. Actually I had this plan on my mind for over a half year, and I made it, thanks to my Daddy wallet hahaha.
And actually I am talking about Azure, my new PC.

Why am I buying this PC? 
I dont have one, so I think I need one hahahaha
Actually this is for my final year project. I am working on robot path planning using graphic processing unit. I need a PC to run on Linux, and it has to be stand-alone, so I cannot have more than one OS. I can have Windows, but after I finished my FYP.

Why I don't buy a prebuilt PC?
A prebuilt PC is perfect enough for a regular user because it has most everything, I mean basic hardware. And the most important thing is, it has a licensed OS, that is very expensive
to have.
But this perbuilt PC lacks on something that we called Performance. I dont say it didnt work well enough, but on certain cases like games enthusiast or photo editing, I have to say that it is better to have a custom PC rather than the prebuilt one. I will talk about this in detail, on the next post, hopefully.

What I have on my Azure?
This is what I picked for my custom PC:
  • Intel Core i5-7500
  • Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050
  • Gigabyte GA-HD3 Mobo
  • Corsair ValueSelect 8GB RAM
  • Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD
  • Corsair VS650 PSU
  • Corsair Spec-03 Casing (Mid-tower)
  • Samsung SF355 22" LED Monitor
  • Logitech MK235 (Keyboard+Mouse combo)
  • TP-Link Network Card (300Mbps)
And I have replaced the front casing fan with 2 Cooler Master JetFlo 120, just because I want blue color fans on my casing, because the previous one is red.
Every hardware I chose are on low-end to midrange cost hardware. But it is good for a budget performance PC in terms of satisfaction.

So the total bucks I spent on my Azure was RM3750 , you can have a pretty good prebuilt PC with that price tho.
So far it runs perfectly perfect. Im in love with it. Nothing much to say, it just satisfying.

OK so I will share about my thought on, why Custom PC over the Prebuilt PC?
And thats it for this post. See ya!
