So I have been wanting to build a PC sense I was in my early 30’s I am 54 now. Last December I bought a PS5 and started to play games again mainly Arc Raiders and started going down the YouTube rabbit holes of all things gaming and then pc and pc building. So I decided that it was finally time to build a pc! I was so excited! I did all the research on building, components and how I wanted it to look and perform. To be honest I wanted it to look cool! This was mainly to see if I could do it . The hunting around picking out the parts was a blast! Early in the process I knew I wanted it to be as clean as possible and wanted a back connection motherboard and so it started! This was one of the most fun and memorable things I have ever done! I think it came out just the way I pictured it! The performance is not the highest end build but I would say a mid to upper level build with a focus on esthetics probably not the most original but something I like. I would love to know what everyone thinks on how I did!
