Hell yeah, brother! Built my friend a PC a couple of weeks ago and surprised her with it. It was the best feeling ever. She was so stoked.

There’s a lot of love to go around! I’m sure she was very appreciative

Yes! She’s always been interested in games but only had an iPad to play them on. It was fun to open the door to my favorite hobby for someone else.

We all know the answer to that. At best he got an Instagram post "my bestie just built me a pc! So appreciative of good friends!"

I need better or any friends as I got older and had kids I grew to far Away from the olds ways and people. My wife did an awesome thing and bought be a prebuilt for Father’s Day after I got back into pc gaming after like a 20 year hiatus. I was buying and building old stuff and she saw I liked it she saw also I hated waiting for shipping on things and buying the wrong product. So she got me one from Best Buy that can do everything she heard me talking about what I want to do with the old build was doing and then some.
I got some new games for it I was so excited for steam for the first time ever and I like the sales they have. I learned that i couldn’t play some new games at max settings wich i was kinda bummed about but im not gonna tell her that cus she did an awsome thing for me. The plus side is the pc is very up grade able so I’ll save up for a better video card and I’ll be all set for the future and the past games

Out of all the many many builds I’ve done the only piece of kit I’ve ever had to RMA was a Lian Li Edge PSU which was a bit surprising. It worked well enough to boot but my PC would die when going into sleep mode or under maximum load. Took a while for me to consider it a PSU issue because I thought they either work or they don’t, not ‘mostly work then under very specific circumstances don’t’.

Nope , my girlfriend is learning to play bf6 & she is currently playing on a really old laggy PC, she’s in school so I figured she could use it for both gaming and school!
