Computer Parts and Components Guide for Beginners: Comprehensive Quick Guide on How to Build a PC

Very good book.

I had great hopes that I could build my first PC in more than a dozen years using this book as a guide, or at least a starting point. I was sorely disappointed and found the "book" to be nearly useless. How the author can honestly call this a "comprehensive" guide is beyond me. No charts, tables, diagrams, or photos. I found that watching an eight-minute YouTube video was much more useful. The book is apparently so bad that even Amazon instructed me to not even bother returning it. I think this is what they call a "vanity book" but this author's vanity is grossly misplaced.

I purchased this book for my son, along with a few others, as he is interested in building his own computer. I was utterly dismayed at the lack of information / content. There were no illustrations or pictures. Content seemed to be literally pulled from the generic response from a search engine, copied and pasted into the pages of this book in the largest font possible. Information contained is NOT worth the paper its printed on......if I could give zero stars, I would.

to old a book

The description looks great. The covour looks great. So looking forward to getting this book and reading it. Got the book and found it to be a self published VANITY book, within lies information that I ( as I suspect the author did ) could have got from asking questions on a well known search engine. Amazon, you must say if a book is self published. Not good enough. I was expecting some really informative insite on how I could save some money building my own PC. Still, the " book" came in handy, cut up into little squares in my ....house.

The information contained in this book is very basic and not that helpful.
