To share your build with a friend or a parent, use the shareable link in the Evetech PC Builder. Whoever opens it sees the same parts you chose, so there is nothing to retype and no photo of a screen to squint at. It is the quickest way for a South African builder to get a second opinion before the final parts are chosen.

Quick Answer

Finish as much of the build as you like in the PC Builder, then send it as a shareable link. A half-done build can be shared too, which helps when you want advice on the processor or graphics card before choosing the rest. Because stock and prices are live, the person opening the link sees how each part stands today. If you change the build afterwards, send a fresh link.

📨 Why a link beats a screenshot

A screenshot shows one moment and one screen, and a build of 8 or 10 parts rarely fits on it. It cannot be scrolled, it hides what is below the fold, and it goes out of date the moment you change a part. A link keeps the entire build in one place. Sharing a build is meant for putting a spec in front of a customer, and the same strength helps with family: the full list, in order, openable on a phone.

In South Africa a lot of messages get read on a phone, so the person you send it to may well open it on a handset rather than a desktop. A link is just a web address, so it opens on whatever device they have.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Sharing with a parent who is paying

A parent looking over a build usually has two questions: is this sensible, and is it the right amount for what it does? Give them the link and a sentence on what the PC is for: school work, gaming or both. A student machine often needs only 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB or 1 TB SSD, which is a useful thing to point out. Then let them scroll the parts.

Point out the parts that matter most to the purpose. For a student, that might be the memory and SSD. For a gamer, the graphics card. If a parent can see why a part is there, they are more likely to agree than if they only see a long list.

Browse the ready-made PC deals beside your own build if the parent wants a comparison; being able to say "this is what a finished option looks like" often settles the debate.

🎮 Sharing with a friend who knows PCs

A friend who has built before can check a build in minutes, but only if you tell them what to look for. Ask three things:

  1. Does the cooling suit the processor, and does the case have room for it?
  2. Does the case suit the motherboard size?
  3. Does the power supply look strong enough for the load?

The builder already filters by socket and form factor and works out the wattage, so your friend is checking judgement, not compatibility. That is a better use of their time. For a gaming build, ask them about the GPU best sellers in your tier, because opinions on cards differ more than on any other part.

✏️ Editing after you share

Sharing does not end the build. Most useful feedback arrives within 24 hours, so wait that long before changing anything. Keep it, return, change the part your friend questioned, and send a new link. Treat each link as a version, and number them in your own head: v1 for the first opinion, v2 once you have made the changes. If two people give different advice, send each of them the other's suggestion and let them argue it out; you will learn more from their disagreement than from either answer alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I send my build to someone?

Use the shareable link in the PC Builder. Whoever opens it sees the same parts list you made, with nothing to retype.

Do I need to finish the build before sharing?

No. You can send a build at any stage, which helps when you want advice on the processor or graphics card first.

Will the other person see live stock?

Yes, stock and prices are live, so they see how each part stands right now, not how it stood when you saved.

Is a link better than a screenshot?

A link keeps the full build in one place instead of a picture of it, and the same link works for putting a spec in front of a customer.

What should I ask for in a second opinion?

Ask whether the cooling suits the processor, whether the case suits the board, and whether the power supply looks strong enough for the load.

Can I keep editing after I share?

Yes. Keep the build, return to edit it, and send a fresh link once you have updated it.
