Personal computer assembly configurator

Assembling a personal computer can be difficult for those who are not well versed in the topic. Of course, you can always buy a computer in a ready-made assembly, but in this case you will have to compromise with the manufacturer and take not what you want, but what you have.

The service of individual assembly from separate components allows the buyer not only to get the desired “stuffing”, but also to assemble a computer in a unique case. If your business is related to the sale of computers and components, and you want to provide assembly services, AVADA MEDIA offers you to place a web application on the website that allows the user to independently assemble a computer from the components available in the catalog and immediately check the compatibility of individual components.

The constructor is created in JavaScript, which is used to implement browser scripts. It works correctly in all modern browsers without installing additional plugins. If desired, the capabilities of the configurator can be significantly expanded by adding new sections to it, as well as visualizing the process using WebGL browser-based 3D graphics technologies.

The latter is especially important if you provide modding services – that is, assembling unique computer cases. Let’s take a closer look at the individual components of the PC configurator.

May be a list of all the options to be installed on board. When you click on a specific parameter, a drop-down list or a pop-up window for selecting a specific component from your catalog opens. Linking to the catalog will allow you not to change the configurator itself every time your assortment changes; the list is updated automatically. After adding a component that is not compatible with previously added elements, a warning may be displayed. The list displays the following items:

• CPU;
• motherboard;
• RAM;
• video memory;
• power unit;

• hard or SSD disk (disks);
• sound card;
• motherboard;
• CD-ROM drives;
• cooling system;
• the body itself.

A PC designer can also suggest the conclusion of recommendations for buyers – for example, when choosing a particular processor, immediately suggest the most suitable motherboard options for it. Or, in the absence of any product, do not remove it from the list, but leave it active, indicating that instead of a temporarily absent product, the user can pick up analogues from the list. The possibilities of the configurator in this respect are practically unlimited.

Choosing a computer, the user usually wants to pick up everything else necessary for comfortable work with him. In particular, the designer can add the ability to select cables of the required standards, the choice of which is far from always obvious. For gamers, a separate tab can be added, in which the designer of the selection of game manipulators, gaming headphones with microphones, acoustic systems will be presented.

For business, an important aspect will be the selection of wi-fi routers and other network equipment, up to the equipment of server rooms. You can also add a selection of office equipment – printers, scanners and other equipment, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies and others. That is, such an online designer will allow you to select not just components for a separate computer, but completely all the necessary equipment for the office.

The configurator will allow you to immediately simulate the entire local computer network, order all components with delivery – all that remains is to assemble the system on site and use it. Such a computer network configurator for business can significantly simplify processes and reduce the time required to purchase the necessary.

Modding refers to the process of styling desktop computer cases, as well as some other elements, for example, computer peripherals (monitors, speakers, etc.). Modding results are often true works of art. If your company specializes in modding, the 3D Desktop Modding Configurator will be a very useful marketing tool for your business.

A 3D configurator for modding is a web application launched in a browser, in which the user forms his own style of the system block from any elements available in the designer. The set of elements is set initially, but the user may also have the option to change the ready-made elements. For example, if the configurator has available enclosures, the user may also have options for changing the enclosure material, color, adding holes and other details.

Technically, 3D graphics are implemented in HTML5 – WebGL technology that works in the browser allows you to do this. The configurator itself is developed in JavaScript using the Three.js and Babylon.js libraries, which allow you to speed up the process of developing applications working with 3D graphics and improve the result.

Draw models for modding in blender, blend4web and 3DS Max, use Photoshop. Thanks to this, it is possible to create models with a naturalistic texture of the material, so that the user gets a complete picture of the future system unit. In general, the AVADA MEDIA modding configurator for personal computers is an excellent addition for the PC designer, which will allow you to set a unique appearance for the user’s computer.
