Virtual Computer Build

Project Description

This project persists of building a top-notch computer that includes high grade technology, but it has to be within the budget you set for yourself. I used a website called pcpickparker.com, and the goal of this project is to create a PC that can keep up with the demands you are asking it to do and have a good operating system.

Lessons Learned

I learned that a desktop computer requires lots of parts to become an effective computer. As I was building my dream computer, I realized that the main computer part is called a mother board, and it sets the tone for how the computer will operate.
