BLUE AURA COMPUTERS RECOMMENDED PERIPHERALS

Recently we've decided to use Amazon to list our recommended components that will work well with our computer systems. This is a fresh & exciting change for us. Before this change, we have always sold a large inventory of peripherals on our website along side our desktop trading computers. In order to offer our customers a larger selection of these products it made much more sense to provide recommendations and links to the products on Amazon versus offering them ourselves directly. This new approach frees us up to do what we do best - offer our customers the best customized desktop computers possible. A lot of thought has been put into this list of peripherals, we believe this represents the best of what is currently available for each category. We've taken care to list multiple products at different price points and features to ensure you will be paired up with the exact products you need. Purchasing items from these affiliate links helps Blue Aura Computers (we get a very small commission off of each sale which doesn't affect the price of the item). We work really hard to keep these product listings up to date but all information is subject to change. Product price and availability can vary, please click on the provided links to view full product information on Amazon's site.

On our system configuration forms we do offer some of these parts you can purchase with your system, we don't offer every product model listed below. We typically list keyboards, mice, speakers and cables/adapters. What we've stopped listing for now are monitors and monitor stands. It's much easier for us and cheaper for our customers to list the recommended monitor and stand options on this page that will work with our computers, then customers can simply buy them from Amazon.
