You can do that?

Q6600 cpu
4gb ddr2 ram
4 1tb HDD's + 2 1tb external HDD's
nvidia 9600gt GPU
2 1920 x 1080 23 inch monitors
built it myself
one of the externals is for anime + games, the other for porn.
the rest of the space is spent on random unorganized shit i'll never be able to find when i'm looking for it.

You can assemble the pieces together. It's less complicated than Lego.

Phenom II X3 720
4GB DDR3 RAM
1 x 1TB HDD (really need to do something about that)
27" 2560x1440 monitor
I built it myself, mostly three years ago but the graphics card and monitor are both newer than that.
I don't do any weeaboo stuff on it. Computers are Serious Business, so I mostly use it for checking my stocks and attending to matters of consequence.

Hi sweetie!
I have a computer that I built myself, and it's about 8 months old. It only has old/cheap parts and bits from my old laptop before the poor dear died, because I don't get a lot of money. I hoard a lot of Touhou/original doujin music, games and save lots of images from Pixiv/Piaro/other art websites. It's fun!

My laptop hard drive is being propped up by mum's address book which she decided not to use.

I doubt it it but I guess I'm gonna read some books on it fir the next few months/year on it.
And some about computer building

2008 year model low-end laptop with Intel integrated video.
I haven't played any modern GPU demanding games since like Quake 4 ;_;

It's actually really, really easy. All of the parts only go into the slot one way, so it's hard to fuck it up.
First you get the motherboard, then insert the processor into the only slot it can fit into. Then you put on the thermal paste, then screw on the little fan for it. After doing that you put in the RAM int their slots (very easy), then put the one-way power supply wires into the motherboard. After doing this you can connect the monitor and keyboard then turn it on to see if everything works (nothing will load and you'll just get beeps if you messed up, just make sure everything is connected properly then try again) or just install it right into the case. You do this by just screwing in the motherboard into the case, there are little holes just for this, and it's easiest if you have it laying down.

After doing that, you'll need to put the power supply into the little slot just for it in the case and screw it in. Then you can screw in your hard drive and plug it into the motherboard, install the cd/dvd drive if you're using them and connect to the power supply + motherboard, install any peripherals (graphics card, network card, sound card, etc (none of these are absolutely necessary)), plug in the front wire bits into the motherboard and don't worry, your case or motherboard come with a guide to where you need to lug what into!, put in the wall cable into the wall and switch the "on" button in the back of the power supply, and there you go! Once you install the operating system, you'll have a fully functioning computer.

Building it yourself is usually far cheaper than buying a prebuilt one, plus it's way more fun!
I might have forgotten something but yes, check out a guide or two, watch a video, and make sure to read the instructions that come with the motherboard and you'll be all ready to go!

Thanks for luring the non-neet eet joblords to one thread OP.

your oversimplifying it. attaching the processor to the motherboard is nerve wrecking.

I'm not the same guy, but the pins on the processor can bend if you fuck up putting in the processor (accidentally drop it or whatever), and you can potentially fuck it up by touching it. If you bought a cheap processor, it's not much to worry about, but if you're dealing with one that costs hundreds of dollars you may feel a bit panicked, especially if it's your first time.

How so? You just match the little triangle on the processor up with the matching triangle on the motherboard slot, insert it gently and softly, then pull the lever down firmly.

If you're careful and take your time while building it, there's literally no stress in building it.

I'm pretty sure processors tend to have little groves cut in the side to make a correct alignment in the first place, it's almost impossible to bend the pins unless you try and slot it in the totally wrong place. If you're touching the pins in the first place, you might be retarded.

Shitty prebuilt with debian installed
