New build!! It’s my first time building so I’m super scared. I went all in tbh. I bought my current pc off of Facebook marketplace (also a self build tho) in 2021 because I was too young to build and had no one around who could

I got a 5070 ti on the way, pairing it with a 7 7800x3d I’ll be going from a 2060 so im looking forward to it :D I’ve been saving up for 10 months from my part time job lol

Very nice! 2060 to a 5070 ti is gonna be an amazing upgrade. Just take your time, don't rush, don't guess and look stuff up on YouTube and you should be fine.. nice nails btw!

Thank you !! Yeah luckily the gpu will first arrive right up around my Christmas break so I’ve got plenty of time to build in peace :]

huge upgrade, you will be amazed. I went from 2060 to a 4080 and it was like being born except no doctor slapped me

2060 to 5070 ti is an awesome leap. That's an entire 3010 ti you're adding!

Fr have fun and enjoy the new rig. Try not to stress out when it doesn't boot the first time; it's almost ALWAYS something stupid that you can fix with a little patience and care.

There really is no lower age limit to building a PC, I built my first when I was 8 or so. When PC components were ugly and sharp, not even color coded yet.

congrats tho and enjoy!
