As someone who hasn't built a PC in a decade, I appreciate a site that stack ranks components. PC Part Picker still seems to require quite a bit of selection. While most enthusiasts are willing to do a little more research to optimize things, I think that there's room for a site like this for less knowledgeable consumers who don't want to do more research or want a simpler starting point for researching a build.
- onli 10y agoThanks. That's exactly the angle I'm aiming for.
- mentos 10y agoHey I think you need to write explicitly at the top of the page "Enter your budget and we'll recommend an optimal build." Because I opened the page and it wasn't quite clear to me wtf I was looking at and I had to come in the comments to figure out how this isn't better than pcpartpicker, found this comment and then went back to the page and was like "oh you have to enter your budget in at the top" edit: ah just realized this was an issue because I was taken to https://www.pc-kombo.de/us/tipp?price=1640&cpuLegacylist%5BAM4%5D=on https://www.pc-kombo.de/us/tipp?price=1640&cpuLegacylist%5BA... If you just go to https://www.pc-kombo.de https://www.pc-kombo.de then it is clear but still worth considering to keep that "recommend" call to action at the top no matter what page you are on so that there is never any confusion what the website is for
- onli 10y agoColor me convinced. After the next restart the explanation will also be on the recommendation page. The logic was of course that people will go to the main page first and only search in a second step, making the explanation not necessary anymore. But in practice, most people come to the site via a share link and never see the start page. As long as the site is not widely known it is better that way. Thanks.
