Ok, so this is my very first PC build, and I must say it probably took me longer to pick parts for the PC than an actually building it took. I spent about $1850.00 on just the tower itself and I'm very proud of what I accomplished, and so I figured I would share with you guys the end product... Any why did i decide to build a PC? Well I'm a gamer and integrated graphics on a laptop were just not cutting it, simple as that.... With the taxes coming up and me starting school i decided it was time for a MAJOR upgrade.
Big thanks to anyone on the forum who helped me with deciding on the parts
