Just a buy prebuilt.

Honestly building a computer is overly complicated and I bet most of /v/ wouldn't know anything about it.

I spent around $3500 for mine and it works really well. I get around 80 fps on CSGO and everything works well

I built my first computer last month.
I knew absolutely fucking nothing about hardware when I started.
I ran into a few issues installing and updating Windows, as well as getting some older games running, but they were all manageable.

It's literally legos. If you get stuck google and your mobo manual are your friends.

Stop being a faggot.

All the connectors are designed to only fit in the right spots. You literally cannot fuck it up if you have even a single brain cells worth of common sense.

If you are really so fucking stupid as to not plug a heatsink/fans power connector into the bit that says CPU FAN then there is no hope for you, and you should immediately anhero. And take your children (if any) with you, the most noble thing you could do is insure that your polluted, corrupted, garbage genes do not remain on this world.

It is though. I figured out which piece/connector goes where based entirely on the shape despite never even looking inside a computer before.

No one told me building a pc was the easiest thing in the world. The hardest part was picking out the parts.

You know there are nosteam cracks for the singleplayer portion of just about every single game on steam right?

You know that even for the multiplayer games they are almost always released off of steam as well, right?

You know the only way you get banned on steam is if you do something stupid like aimbot in competitive CS matches or use the system for money laundering, right?
>>
I still havent replaced my stock Intel cooler because I'm afraid of fucking something up with the install of a new one, especially because I dont want to remove my motherboard from the tower to do it, I'm afraid I'll use too little or too much thermal paste, I'm afraid of static electricity and dont know how if just touching the metal case while not wearing socks with the PC on the wood floor, if thats enough because I'm really afraid of damaging a component and then I can say goodbye because I dont have the spare money to replace it.

Building and maintaining your own PC is a lot more stressful to a poorfag because you fuck something up and then you know you cant replace it for a long while, and you dread touching your inner PC parts again even when removing dust because you get worried about static electricity fucking your parts up, touching the wrong place on your mobo etc...

Luckily I managed to bring my temps down by reducing the ridiculous 3.60x overclock on my i5 3470 to 3.30x which brought gaming temps on full load down from 70c to 59-60c.

Here's my PC I built for $700. I'm not a poorfag, so I can actually afford to play games on something that isn't filth. Also pirated most of my games and plan to continue doing so, so the savings will be far greater than if I bought all the games for a PoorStation.

I did a couple stupid things when building my computer. I forgot to put in the I/O shield first, and when I screwed in the mobo wrong. I panicked over how to connect different wires in the case to the mobo, and where to connect the fans.

Honestly though even if you do stupid shit like me you will end up fine. It took me much longer to build than a normal person but I never fucked up any pieces even with all my mistakes. Just don't do anything that could obviously fuck up a part.
