Competitive Audit
Before starting the design process, I made a competitive audit to better understand what other similar businesses do to achieve a user-focused approach with a similar user base. I pointed out what each one did right and wrong coming from a user myself. With this information, I was able to take all the things these brands did right and implement them in my design as well as see what they lacked or where they went wrong so I could improve upon it.

PC Building Tool
I wanted to create the best marketplace imaginable for gaming and PC equipment. I decided that the key to this was to cater to both seasoned tech and gaming enthusiasts as well as newer and less-versed audiences, as well as everyone else in between. This put together in a modern, visually appealing, user friendly design would achieve this goal. That is when I thought of the concept of including a PC building tool to help users build the perfect PC for their preferences, usage, and budget.
This PC building tool is an interactive guide that helps you choose each part for your custom PC, one step at a time. It walks you through selecting components, explaining what each one does and why it's important. You’ll see some of the most popular options for each part, giving you some options for every budget. The tool simplifies the process by ensuring that you understand what each component does and that you have everything you need for your build. It’s designed to make the whole experience smooth, enjoyable, and tailored to your needs. Here are some screenshots of the different stages of the process:
