Project Description
This project consisted of building a virtual computer optimal to you. For my sake, I created a gaming PC. Each part is essential to having the best experience while gaming. With a price in the middle ground, this build still allows all to game on! I used the website PCPartPicker to find each component. This is my virtual build.

Lessons Learned
Throughout this project, I learned that the components to a computer are very expensive. Though most of these parts need to be bought, you'll get lucky if one is included, almost like the CPU cooler. Also, I like how you can build a PC to the desire of your choice. Whether it's for editing, gaming, or speed, you are able to build YOUR computer!
