It is so fucking easy you're going to be surprised how easy it is.

It will take you no more than 3-4 hours your first time, and you can get probably twice as powerful a pc building it compared to prebuilt garbage.

For OS just rip windows, I use an old w7 OSTEAM boot usb.

OP, Just giving you a heads up a lot of people have tremendous headaches their first time building a PC and even their second third, fourth, and fifth times. It's not as simple as building lego's. Lego's don't have compatibility issues and wires and shit you need to get right.

It is the best option to be able to control your budget though and get the best bang for your buck but be prepared for a bit of a headache and a nice little project from this. There are decent prebuilds you can get that save you the headache especially if you live by a Microcenter to consider. If you like using controllers then a PS4 might just be up your alley. Bottom line is don't just take this "building a pc is like connection a pair of lego's together".

Fuck this dude I quoted too w hen he comes in here arguing trying to tell me otherwise. This post is for you to consider, I don't have shit to say to him.

but it literally is. he can remake a thread and ask if his pieces are compatible if he's unable to find out himself. building a pc is LITERALLY plug and play.

you'd probably have to dremel out slots, just cop a cheap case off pcpartpicker. i've built ~20 PCs since 2012.

depending on what gpu/mobo you get that is what will decide what size tower you get (mid, full, etc)

If that's a Dell XPS 410, it was already fairly average ~10 years ago.

abandon this thinking my man. we are in a good time right now where the parts that will top you out at 1080p@60 are cheap because people are moving to 4k.

just build a new pc from the ground up and maybe salvage the hdd from that pc.

Thanks for the replies.

It does seem like a hobby from what I've heard, I've had chipset/driver/card/etc issues and endless searching led nowhere. But I've also heard as the other guy said that prebuilt PCs are relative overpriced garbage. So I guess it's time to sack up and try something, I've been messing with software for a good 12 years.

Pieces compatible with what, each other or the Dell? Because as I figured I won't be taking the Dell very far, I might keep it for a backup at best.
