PCPartPicker is a comparison shopping website that allows users to compare prices and compatibility of computer components on different retailers online.[1] The website was created by Philip Carmichael in 2011. The website was substantially redesigned in February 2015.[2][3] The website is funded through affiliate linking to sites such as Amazon.com.[4] Additional functionality is available, such as sharing build lists, photos, and instruction, alerts for price drops, forums, and filters for automatically adjusting pre-made lists of components.[5]
