Notes: |
This is the 3rd computer I've built (after one for my sister and one for my parents). This one is for me! It's a pretty sweet set-up for about $620 including the monitor. |
I built this computer for my sister to use at college. This is the first computer I've built from the ground up. I'm amazed that it works. And the whole thing with the monitor cost under $800.00 |
I bought the case and motherboard together as part of a "barebones" package. This would have been a Micron Corp. computer but they had excess inventory. |
