Hi my name is Ciaran. Here at Ciaran’s Custom Computers we are a family run business, that aims to bring the joy of computing both creative and gaming to our customers, from a high-end VR gaming PC down to a functional office computer for everyday use. Particularly we wanted to bring the flexibility and customisation of building your own PC without the painstaking hours of research, bargain hunting for the best deals, and of course the stress involved with putting it all together.
I have always been interested in gaming from a young age; from Chuckie Egg on the BBC Micro, to my family’s first console in the NES right up to watching teams compete for millions in prize money in the biggest e-Sports tournaments. Games have always had a prominent influence on my life. My interest in PCs began by poking and prodding in my family computer and learning how each part works.  About 15 years ago I took the plunge, trusting my own skills, by picking out each part and building my own pc. I have never looked back since : from there I moved on to helping friends and family members with theirs. In 2009 I graduated with an honours degree from the Factuality of Computing and Engineering, University of Ulster. Â
Computer games are now the single largest entertainment sector, beating both TV/Film and Music. With the rise of broadband and the remarkable advancement in technology there has never been a better time to get into computing, be it a top of the range virtual reality capable gaming system, to a powerful multi-core creative workstation or simply a well made desktop for light entertainment and office work.
Last year after spending time with the wonderful and talented staff up at VC Computers, Letterkenny I realised that I enjoyed day to day tasks involved in this line of work, and so I started my own business in Ciaran’s Custom Computers.
