That nice. . . . :thumbup:

One side of my tower case is transparent, with green lights.

It's home built, not by me, but by a friend of mine. . . .😊Maybe someday I'll figure out how to use it.

1. What components did you use to build your PC?

I used an Intel Core i7 processor, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 graphics card, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a 750W power supply.

2. How long did it take you to build your PC?

It took me about 2 hours to physically assemble the components and another 2 hours to install and configure the software.

3. How much did it cost to build your PC?

The total cost of my custom built PC was around $1500, but the cost can vary depending on the specific components and brands chosen.

4. What makes your PC stand out from others?

I chose specific components to optimize performance for my needs, such as a high-end graphics card for gaming or a powerful processor for video editing. I also added custom LED lighting for a unique aesthetic.

5. Can I build a PC like yours even if I have no experience?

Yes, building a custom PC can be done by anyone with some basic technical knowledge and following online tutorials. It may take longer to research and understand the components, but it can be a fun and rewarding experience.
