So after I talked to my dad about getting upgrades to my computer, we ended up watching three videos on how to build a computer, and he got super hyped on wanting to build one. So yesterday he said to gather out parts list and to order them soon. He said we'll get it done before summer is out. ~~So I want some input from you guys on some parts, and if the stuff I have gathered so far is good.~~ Too late, parts ordered

Make sure you don't break the parts. Also, don't get your skin oils on the cpu. Make sure only to touch the chip part.

We aren't computer illiterate. We already know a lot about computers. There wre a few dark areas in building a computer we were not sure about. We watched three hour long videos on building a comp and we feel very confident in our abilities I'm building a good specced computer.

Then it's settled, I will Livestream the building when we get to it. Hopefully we'll order the parts in the next 2-3 days.

ShadowsfeaR · July 28, 2012, 05:18:47 PM

We just ordered all the parts from Newegg. Decided to go with the AMD Radeon HD 7850. Parts should arrive soon (hopefully).
