The Case Makes the Man

The economic principle I’m exploring is: People gain when they trade voluntarily.

My research question to help me study the economic principle is: How do consumers of computer parts know that they are getting the best price?

 The article/video/etc published in “PC World” titled “Which PC case should you buy?” demonstrates this economic principle because it demonstrates that consumers gain because the computer case is based off of all the other parts one would buy.

First, computer cases are the last thing purchased when building a PC. That’s because the size and port locations are all determinant on the other parts one has bought. Because when it comes to PC parts, an underlying truth is that “size matters”.

Second, PC cases are a very integral part of the build because they aren’t just a pretty face. The PC cases have fans that help cool down the system or hold supports for a water cooling system, and they aren’t cheap costs ranging from $50 to around $150.

Third, however one decides to take the build path, a PC case is important because it shows your identity. Cases can look futuristic, old style, white, black, have a rainbow of LEDs, just one color of LEDs, or none. No matter how you look at it, this may be the last post besides the synthesis but it’s certainly not the least.

 In my next blog post I will research: Nothing!
