BuildCores: Part Picker for PC

The idea of the app is good Pros: -do have average price for the part -have build guide -app theme is cool -have pretty fine pre-build Cons: -the custom build (part picking) need some change for better experience, i had pretty hard time to picking part for a custom build I am here from reddit.

I think this app is almost as good as pc part picker. The biggest differences are that this apps prices are not 100% accurate. Although Pc part picker has the same issue, it is worse here. It also doesn’t have every part I want to use. These flaws can’t outweigh how great this app is. Would definitely recommend downloading it.

Very few parts are available on this app. Could find less than half of the components I have on my build. Big names too. Gigabyte, Fractal, NZXT- huge selling products that have been on the market for years are just not here. Move along, very little to see here.

Doesn’t seem to have any current components.

Many products listed aren’t right. Ex: when redirecting to the Amazon link for Power color rx 7800 xt red devil, you get directed to a rtx 4060 instead.

Good

The app is fine for finding parts and putting together a PC build, but if you click on one of the “Buy” buttons for a part, it will automatically bring you to Amazon or Newegg or BestBuy in a Web Browser or it will open it on the companies app if you have it installed, all fine and dandy there. But when you go back to the PC Builder app, it will get stuck in a hyperlink loop that brings you back to the web site or app from the original part you were trying to buy. The PC Builder app becomes unusable unless you close it and reopen.

Okay, first off, this App is amazing for its simplicity and the functionality of it! I’ve been wanting to find good components for a computer to buy, and this is the perfect tool! All of the other computer building apps don’t work as well as this one. There is also a lot more than just building a computer, you can literally make your own parts, in the community! You can also share your builds, and comment on them, overall perfect app, it’s free, fun, and simple!

This app is great. I'm trying to make a computer building company and this helped me sooooo much.

In their defense you can add parts yourself but it kind of defeats the purpose if you’re having to look up basic parts that even Best Buy has. Specifically I am talking about the 4080 founders edition. Although it is a niche case they also don’t have the Formd T1 case which I can’t give too much flak because most build websites don’t have it either.
