I want my PC to be able to handle video games like Roblox and Minecraft, but at the same time have plenty of RAM space for the ten thousand work tabs I open all at once. I also wanted it to be aesthetically nice, so I made sure to choose white and RGB parts, but some parts here I had to compromise to keep the price under $1000 because I am interested in actually building a PC for myself, so I wanted to stay at least a little realistic.
What this assignment has taught me is that there are so many parts that go into a computer, and they all work together, not individually. The quality as well as the price matters depending on what you’re building for. I also learned that PC building can be an art, as I’ve seen in the reviews, many people showing off their beautiful builds, I was in awe.
