uncle won't let me work on computer

[hillkill]

so my uncle told me he's going to by me a gaming pc for my birthday. his buddy at work has been using it for a few years to well.. play games. i asked the guy the specs, and it's a little under bearing, and i asked my uncle if i could put a new gpu in it, and he said he doesn't want me to touch it inside because it's "water cooled" (it has a loving corsair h60). the only guy that can touch the inside is the guy who put it together. he's seen me work on computers and replace parts many times, but yet he doesn't want me to work on this one. how do i convince him to let me work on it?

Yeah, you could try to prove to him that you can build and work on computers.

tell the guy who he got it from, go to his place, act like he did the upgrades, then go back home.
or
go outside and pretend to go to the komputer shoppe, do the upgrades, act like the seller did the upgrades, then go back home to jerk your dingaling

Why do you feel the need to mess around with it?  If anything, you should respect your uncle's decision by not fiddling with the internals instead of being defiant.

yeah but the problem is his uncle doesn't understand the fact that an H60 isnt the same as this:

It's your birthday present and therefore your PC. Replace the GPU as you please.
