The Tower - 2018 First PC Build

by Andrew P Posted on: 1/12/2023

Build Description

I built this back in 2018 as my first gaming computer. It has played many hours of Terraria, Stardew Valley, Fallout games, and more! Currently, I am getting really into Fallout 76 and Apex Legends. The first game I probably tested with this computer was Minecraft (as that was my gauge of how good a computer I had built was at the time)!

Favorite Feature

I like the minimalistic look of it. It's also super quiet and has never overheated which I also greatly appreciate!
