• About this FAQ
• Can anyone submit a question?
• What if I'm not a TD member?

This FAQ is the brainchild of the members of Team Discovery, and its intention is to provide some preliminary information about building your own computer to process work for Distributed Computing projects, such as those run by Team Discovery.

There is significant interest in building your own computer, especially for those who have never done so. With the current state of marketing and availability, it's relatively easy for someone with moderate knowledge to tackle this enjoyable project ... and the purpose of this FAQ is to provide some help and direction for that goal.

If you don't find your answer here, ask in the forum. You are sure to get help and encouragement. Enjoy!

Most of the information in this FAQ is geared toward Team Discovery members and others who are involved in Distributed Computing projects, but there is also a lot of information that is generic build-it-yourself material, and it does not make a difference whether you are a team member or not.

The hardware forums are also home to some FAQ's about similar considerations when buying computer parts.
