I’ve been wanting to build a pc for years now, and with the government handing out them stimmys, I figured now is the time. The only thing I’d change about this build is the monitor. I wish I would have gotten a monitor with higher resolution, but this monitor is good. Everything looks super smooth on it and for $200 I really can’t be too upset with it.$1,107.84 -

I found one on eBay and had planned a whole build around it. That is not this. I walked into a local pawnshop I visited often and saw a pc they had for $500. It WAS working when they got it and a previous customer looked at it. However, when I went to see it did not boot. They could not figure what the issue was and sold it to me at $340 no tax. I take it home and reseated the ram. It worked. I cleaned it up got all the weird bits and incorrect wiring corrected. It was a lil nasty but nothing a duster can't deal with. (I know its dusty.) My main plans for this are most likely a Case Swap + GPU Upgrade + more RGB Lights. Maybe some small Etsy stuff for decoration.$527.00 -

My youngest has always been asking for a PC since his sisters has one, so I've been searching the cyber web for various parts to build him a budget PC. Lots of the parts are used, but I purchased the 5800x3d from Microcenter. The best deal I got was for the Louqe Raw S1 case. The original owner had a custom paint job on it and had a hard time selling it, so I was able to scoop it up for $30. All we did was use paint remove and sanded all the paint off. We liked the bare metal so we left it at that. The only problem with this case is you're limited on the CPU cooler. The best you can fit is the Noctua NH-L12S, but I have future plans to cut down the case to allow a AIO radiator to mount in the back. He is still young so he's been mainly using the PC for learning apps. He's happy with his PC, but now asking about a custom keyboard like his sisters T_T.$1,119.97 -

With this build, I went with a plant and Ghibli theming. I did a case mod of putting a smaller monitor in the front of the case in order to use wallpaper engine to add to the aesthetic of the build. This build was challenging not only because of the monitor mod but also because I top-mounted the AIO which required another mod to be able to attach it.$2,513.90 -

With starfield coming out I wanted to get a new build for it since I hadn't really upgraded in many years as my old build had only 16GB of RAM (that was a lot when I built it) and a 1660 Super.

I'm still missing a couple of more fans on top of the case for more exhaust and 2 fans on the radiator so I can have a push and pull system. But otherwise very satisfied with my first build. That final price is a little bit higher than what I paid for because of the 3-1 bundle I got from MicroCenter for my MBD, CPU, and RAM but I think this will hold me over for a long time. I’m planning on streaming a lot of games and growing my gaming channel but my end goal is to eventually start doing some freelance work so that I can start turning this investment into a profit. I wanted something that I wouldn’t need to upgrade, for a good price, and I think I accomplished that very well. Built this by myself and was surprised at how simple it was, everything was mostly plug and install. All I did was make sure I took my time and I did the proper research if I wasn't sure of something. A very fun process for sure and really cool to learn about all the different components to a computer that you probably wouldn’t know unless you built a PC for yourself. Scalping for parts was another fun experience for me, I enjoyed looking for the best part available for the right prices and if I decided to build another PC, I would definitely pay more attention to the dimensions and clearances of the cases before buying my parts. As far as budgeting goes if you are starting from scratch I would 100% recommend you buy the MicroCenter bundle just make sure that they have it wherever you are going to get it from. It's the best deal you can get for really good parts and you won't have to worry about those parts being compatible. With the MBD, CPU, and RAM out of the way next step is picking out your graphics card and my advice is to go with the best you can get right now so you don't need to worry about any future upgrades but a lot of it depends on where the market is. If you really need help look for it on the r/buildapc, there you can find a lot people who share information on pretty much anything related to building a PC. I was able to get my 3060 Ti for ~$330 on amazon, this is probably where you should spend a majority of your money for your build especially if you are trying to build a gaming rig. Next thing on the list is the cooling for your CPU and the case I plan to install 7 fans total for my case (2 exhaust on top, 1 fan in the back, and 4 on my radiator in the front) definitely overkill but case fans are very cheap and you can find good deals on bundles everywhere. For the CPU cooler I'd suggest an AIO, there are a ton on the market, just look for one that fits within your price range and is compatible with your CPU and case and go for it, I wanted to install mine on the top of my case which is pretty standard but there wasn't enough clearance in my case so I had to move it to the front which works just as well. If you do go with an AIO make sure you do your research on the correct ways to install it so that you can extend the life of your cooler for as long as possible. Getting into the storage of the device again it'll depend heavily on how many slots your case/motherboard comes and where the market is at the time but I started off with one 1TB NVM.e M.2 SSD for now because storage is very easy to install and upgrade later on. I'd stick to at least one 1TB NVM.e M2 SSD as a bare minimum they are the fastest drives right now, very small, and quick to install. The final part to your build should be the PSU, I got a gold standard 700W PSU which is enough for my build but could be different for yours just look up a PSU wattage calculator online and they'll let you know what's the right amount for your build. The gold certified PSUs are not cheap but from everything I read are very much worth the price just because of how important the PSU is too your entire build, it can also draw power more efficiently saving you a bit of money on your electric bill which is nice. Again this is only my first build and I'm just sharing what I learned from this entire process and my best advice to anyone like me is: take your time, don't force anything if you have to wait it out, just wait it out. Right now is a great time to build beacuse of how cheap the parts are getting but always be careful of what you are buying and who you are buying it from. Some of the sites that helped me out a lot while I was building was pcpartpicker, userbenchmark, microcenter, newegg, and reddit (r/buildapc). Took me some time to get everything aligned together but that is because you always want to make sure you are getting the best quality and value out of your parts so don't stress it just keep it simple go one by one until you get the results you want and as long as you are keeping track of everything it should get easier as you continue going.$1,076.91 -

This PC was my first ever build and currently my only however I am in the process of searching for new parts for a second. I built this to experiment with computer building and have learned much for my mistakes and things I have overlooked. Such as cheeping out on some parts I now realize are important and now hold me back. This is mainly used to game. With games such as COD, CSGO, Rainbow 6, fallout, payday, Minecraft, flight sim, Star Wars, and much much more. It is also used as a workstation for AUTODESK CAD programs such as Inventor, Maya, and fusion. This is also my daily driver for things like homework and other things too.

I will start by saying that Microcenter is 100% responsible for making me cave and go full-upgrade to the new AM5 platform. I was holding off because not only would Ryzen 7000 generation cpu's require me to buy a new motherboard, but i would have to buy a new ddr5 ram kit as well. Enter Microcenter. I was spending time browsing my local store (quite dangerous for the wallet, in retrospect) and I saw something I couldn't pass up. Namely, buying a new 7700x cpu would come with a 32gb ddr5 ram kit completely free. Sold. Now one thing I did learn through this process is that once I made the purchase and got the new 7700x cpu box in my hands, it became clear that I had overlooked something. Specifically, the 7700x box is obviously far too small and light to contain a stock air cooler, which I had always used in the past with AMD. This took me down a trail of research that ultimately has me trying out my first liquid cooling AIO unit. I am only doing light gaming right now (hence the 3060 Ti), and spend most of it still playing Final Fantasy XIV. But I might upgrade later if I get back into more serious demanding pc games. I think I'm set with this motherboard, ram, and cpu for a while though!$1,727.95 -

I put it together to be a gaming PC and maybe use it for CAD work in the future. Everything in the build went very well. And I can't believe how much better my games are now. The temperatures are good and everything seems to run fine. My only hiccup was that the USB-C on the front I/O requires an adapter to connect to this motherboard. Not a huge deal but if I had known, I probably would have spent a bit more money on a fully compatible motherboard. Overall I'm super happy with how everything turned out.

Including the Corsair Commander Core XT, Corsair Lighting Node Pro, Asiahorse Power Cords, a QIVNSRY M.2 heatsink, and the internal header adapter for the USB-C.$1,547.91 -

This project is essentially a rebuild of a gaming pc I had previously assembled. This previous build had problems, though. Specifically, I had temps on my 5800x that were quite frankly unacceptable, often spiking over 90 degrees C while under heavy load from a video editing application. The Arctic Liquid Freezer II is one of the best reviewed cpu coolers and has made a significant positive impact on the cooling for this build. One thing I learned through this process is that there is more than one revision of the Ryzen 7 5800x cpu. Many online review sites demonstrate newer revisions of the 5800x run a cooler temperatures and at a lower power draw. So looking back on my purchases, I wish I had specifically bought only the newer revision of the 5800x.$2,044.92 -

This build is designed for high-performance gaming in 2560x1440p, which calls for a 3060 Ti. Higher resolutions are supported as well, but not at peak performance (that would call for a 3080). 4k gaming is typically not feasible except with the RTX 4000 series, which is thousands of dollars more expensive and in my opinion not necessarily worth the price. 2k is the most delicious price point. The powerful i7-12700K picks up the slack for CPU-intensive games that don't use GPU, as well as editing programs and any other applications. This processor does not come with a stock cooler so the best choice is DeepCool AK620 which has significantly more cooling power than the industry standard Hyper 212 Black Edition. For the same price, it gives you 2 more heatpipes and 1 more fan. This means an ultra long lifespan for your CPU and major overclocking performance. The motherboard is durable and has quality heatsinks. ATX gives you plenty of space for the oversized cooler and GPU. The power supply is way more than you need. This build consumes like 450-500W, so 850W is overkill, but get no less than 600W. PSU's operate at peak efficiency (97%) around 50% of their total load, which doesn't really matter because it's still 95% efficient from like 30-100% of load range. Check Wikipedia. RAM is generic. Pick anything. Don't go DDR5, it's buggy, untested, and the reviews are atrocious. Buggy RAM will ruin your life because it's so hard to diagnose. SSD gives super fast boot times. Mine is like 30 seconds. May your framerates be high and your latency low. Good luck boys.$1,817.92 -

I built this pc because some games are just better on pc than playing their inferior console versions. I especially feel this way about action rpgs where high fps is important. It's a much better gaming experience playing Elden Ring and Nioh 2 at a higher framerate.$1,439.93 -

I wanted to create my first hard line tubing build, and wanted to try to make rgb look good. So I went with a minimalist color palette to let the rgb shine, among the black, nickel, and clear components. I also wanted to try a vertical gpu mount, which lead me down the path of creating 3d printed parts as the stuck mount was unappealing to me. I also have included my fiber 10gbit nic behind the gpu, another factor that influenced my vertical bracket design. Lian Li provides the 3d model for my case freely, which made the prototyping phase much faster. In hindsight I wish I had incorporated a modification to the top cover plate to allow greater airflow, the system can get quite toasty with a few games like Cyberpunk. I work from home and game on the same pc, so I don't have any channel or such to promote. Since I am limited to a few photos here without context, I would like to share the forum link where I have my full build log you can check out for additional photos https://hardforum.com/threads/project-black-glass.2015333/$5,737.21 -
