Description:

This is my first PC build and I am very proud of the results. I know it isn't flashy with all those RGB fans and memory, but I prioritized performance given my budget. What isn't included in the parts list is a second hard drive that I salvaged from my old gaming laptop that broke, giving me a total of 2TB. I plan to use this for 3D CAD, machine learning, and gaming. The scariest part of this build was installing the CPU fan. Something about compressing my precious CPU by bolting this fan onto the motherboard hurt, but I guess it had to be done for better heat transfer. If I were to do anything differently, I'd opt for a liquid cooler since it would probably be less stressful to install and offer better cooling.
