I'm Alex Chen.

I'm a software developer and lifelong tinkerer who has been building, fixing, and writing about computers for over fifteen years. What started as forum posts about GPU upgrades turned into this site — a place for practical advice without the jargon wall.

I grew up taking apart family PCs "just to see how they worked" (sorry, Mum). These days I split my time between remote development work and testing the laptops, monitors, and peripherals that land on my desk.

ComputersPal covers hardware reviews, software recommendations, step-by-step guides, and deal roundups — everything I wish existed when I was choosing my first proper workstation.
