This project was to use an online computer builing tool to design our own funcinal computer.
I have learned computers are computers because of input, storage, processing, and output. I also learned that computers now ‘require’ 16gb of ram. I also have not looked at the price of computer parts in a few years so some of the parts that I wanted back then are super cheap now, it's crazy to see them listed cheap and obsolete now.
This computer build is the upgrades I would do to my computer. The case, mouse keyboard, power supply and monitor are all things I already currently have so I will have a separate price that leaves out those items. I chose a better processor and mother board and quadrupled my ram with the option to still add more if deemed necessary. The only part I think I would change on this list is the GPU if I found a better one at a good price.
