With parts.

I didn't build one I bought a refurbished ThinkCentre and put a 750 ti in it.

Salvaging PC is the true experience.

Building PCs is for poorfags

>>60937028
Poor because they are too stupid to save money buying prebuilt.

>>60936969

>prebuilts save money
No they don't. I priced it out, and buying a prebuilt, you generally spend $200-300 more, not to mention the inflated prices of options.
Building a PC is the cheapest option.

When I was little my family was too poor to afford a good computer (pentium 4, 256mb of rdr ram, and a GeForce 4 until 2008, no consoles) and I wanted to play games. So I learned how computers worked and what I would need to do in order to make it better.
Fast forward, computers are still a hobby of mine, and now that I'm older I have a nice one.

Worst processor decision ever.

power button doesnt work when it goes to sleep?

is ur front panel wired in

>>60937284
like the power button works but i get no display on screen and bios is fine but every time i put it too sleep and wake it up it stays black screened so i have to hold the power button to turn it off then on just to get to my log in screen

I built mine with a friend, we both have the exact same rig.

There was a lot of excel spreadsheets, months of research on computer parts and finding the best prices. But the end result has worked fucking fantastically so far.

3 years on and still runs like a beast, only thing I regret is getting ATX instead of mATX

My brother built it.

I only buy pre-built

I don't want to talk about it

You start with a budget. Then you decide what things you want to focus on (purely gaming, nothing else?) and then buy the best parts you can in that budget. The focus is to mainly give you a GPU:CPU ratio, for example, if you're gaming at high resolutions, you need to spend way more on the GPU than the CPU. A general rule is more pixels require more GPU.
