First it is important to distinguish whether you're working with a Mac or PC? Both are reasonable models but a Mac pairs better with and iPhone and an Android pairs better with a PC. Desktop computers are known as the more bang for your buck than purchasing a laptop. What your main purpose for the computer is a key factor in determining the correct computer for your use. If your main purpose is for gaming, you may want to invest in a computer that has features that focus on sound and optics.​

The memory of your computer is measured in gigabytes. The more memory the faster the computer is. The most common gigabytes for memory on a computer is 8GB. This is a reasonable number of gigabytes for an average person. ​ ​

The hard drive of your computer is considered the portion of the computer that stores your data. The hard drive is also measured in gigabytes. Speed is also important when determining the best computer for your needs. A slower hard drive can slow down activity in task and research. The speed of your computer is measure in revolutions per minute (rpm). A computer with at least 7,200 rpm hard drive has a good performance rating. ​ ​
