Finding a good deal on a computer isn’t always easy but we’ve just made it a tad bit easier. You see, we thought a great deal about what some of the best places to buy an affordable and reliable computer are. You may be surprised to learn what some of the answers that we came up with are but either way, we’re confident in our choices. So, with that being said, we hope that you’ll take the time to dig through this list and research our choices. If you do, you’ll have no trouble saving money on your dream computer. Now, what are you waiting for? It’s time to scroll down, check out our choices, and enjoy!

Tiger Direct

The first store on our list is Tiger Direct. They pretty much specialize in everything computer related and while their prices may not be the absolute cheapest on the web, we look at them as the authority in this niche. They have everything that you’ll ever need from computer parts and accessories to full blown systems built to take over the world. Okay, so maybe you can’t take over the world but with Tiger Direct, you’ll come close.

New Egg

This is one is barely second to Tiger Direct because in a way, they are pretty much the same store but with a different name. We like this both equally as much but we have more experience dealing with Tiger Direct and have known about them a lot longer. Either way, if you choose New Egg over Tiger Direct (or vice versa), you will not be disappointed.

Walmart

Here’s where that shocker comes in that we spoke of in the opening paragraph. Yes, we said it. Walmart is a great place to buy computers. As long as you stay away from those pesky e machines (if they still even make those), you’ll get a great deal on a computer over at Walmart. They sell most of the major brands and at some pretty darn good prices.

Directly

No, that’s not the name of a store. What we mean by “directly” is this. Try buying your next computer directly from the manufacturer. If you like Dell, head on over to their site and have your computer custom built. It’ll be more expensive than buying one that is pre- configured already but at least you’ll know exactly what is in it and why. In some cases, you can even save money if they allow you to pick what software you want on your computer.

So, to refresh your memory, the stores that we suggested were Tiger Direct, Walmart, New Egg, and the actual manufacturer of the brand you like. These are all great places to buy your next computer as you’ll save money, and you’ll get a good computer (if you know what to look for). If you don’t know what to look for, check out a post we did a while back on what brands are good. You can see that post by going here. Now, before you go, make sure you share this list with your friends and let them know about our site. Thanks!
