Getting up to speed on the latest technologies can be a challenge, especially when the products you’re interested in evolve with every coming season. In our PC How-To Guides, we lay out exactly what you need to know in a straight-forward, easy-to-understand fashion. Whether you’re setting up a new operating  system, installing a solid-state drive, building your first (or tenth!) PC, or diving into the world of Small Form Factor PCs, we’ve got a guide for you.

Our How-To Guides go hand-in-hand with our Buyer’s Guides, particularly our monthly Do-It-Yourself PC Build Guides. While the art of building a PC changes only slightly from year to year, the parts you’ll want to use change dramatically, which is why we update our Buyer’s Guides regularly. Once you’ve learned what you need to move forward with your next project, flip over to the Buyer’s Guides to help you track down the products that will work best for you.

Note that we also have how-to guides dedicated to Smart Home products, so definitely check those out if you’re into DIY smart home projects!
