thank you so much!! did you build a pc for just everyday use or are you a gamer as well? and thank you for the tips! I have everything now and I’m just waiting for my partner to not be busy so that hopefully today I can video call them and we’ll do it together. they’ve been working on computers since they were 14, so, they’ll be a lot of help! I’m replacing the motherboard, ram, cpu, and cpu cooler (and a fan hub but that’s less important) so I have to strip everything out and start over, hahaha.
It’s mostly for everyday use and as a media PC for our living room - I have a 2tb drive chock full of music and movies and anime and now a 4tb drive that says yohoho at me to be filled. I do game occasionally but am much more into retro type games than hyper realistic ones so my GPU needs are low.
Stripping everything out and rebuilding is the fun part! Well, on atx boards at least… This last one was my first mini-itx and my sausage fingers definitely got in the way a few times. You’re going to do great, though, especially with them helping to guide you and troubleshoot
