So over the past few months, a friend of mine from work has been collecting parts that he either A: Had from previous builds, or B: snagged then for stupid low prices. I chipped in a few bucks for a cheap case and this is what we have created! I'll post the specs from it soon, I didn't get the specifics, we were having to many laughs whilst building it.

The goal: To see if it would actually work. It did!

Note - We didn't actually put an FX in this haha, the processor just happened to come with the FX box :p

We also decided to rate it! Not terrible for a computer that we put about 70 bucks into!

"But PCs are SOOOO expensive, you have to sell your house to afford one. I´d rather stick with my console." /sarcasm
This is the reason why I always say that buying a PC is more expensive than a console is a lie.
 
How are you going into the internets right now.

On another note, the reason why I want to show you how to assemble the PC for yourself is, that you can learn so much from putting a PC together. I learn something new every time I do it, and I have done it quite some times. Also it let´s you troubleshoot other devices (like smartphones and toasters)
 
I'm at work. Totally getting paid for this.

I really appreciate the offer for help. Maybe we can find a way to do it through my iPad?
 
The good news with building a comp is that most parts only fit in one type of slot. If you can manage to buy all compatible stuff then the assembly is pretty straight forward with only a bit of guidance.
