Before you start building your PC, you'll need to gather the following components:
CPU, Motherboard, DDR4 or DDR5 RAM (depends on motherboard), NVme, SSD or Hard Drive for Storage, Graphics card, Power supply, Case, Case Fans, CPU Cooler which can be a Air Cooler or AIO. You can also do a Custom Loop, but I recommend staying away from for your first build.
This is a custom Loop. They are not beginner friendly computers to build. I even struggle with them myself. So I would wait to attempt this if it's your first build.
Choosing the Right Components
The first step is to choose the right components for your needs. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Budget: How much money are you willing to spend on your PC?
Games: What games do you want to play? Some games are more demanding than others, so you'll need to choose components that can handle the games you want to play.
Performance: How much performance do you need? If you're a casual gamer, you can get away with a less powerful PC. But if you're a hardcore gamer, you'll need a more powerful PC.
Building the PC
Once you've chosen the right components, it's time to start building the PC. The process is relatively simple, but it's important to follow the instructions carefully.
Here are the basic steps involved in building a PC:
Install the CPU in the motherboard.
Install the RAM in the motherboard.
Install the storage device in the case if its a hard drive or normal SSD, if its an NVme that will go on your motherboard.
Install the GPU to the PCie Slot on Motherboard.
Install the power supply in the case.
Install the AIO if you chose to get that, or you can install the Air Cooler (much easier)
Connect all of the cables.
Install the operating system.
I recommend doing it in that order, it makes building the computer a simpler task without anything getting in the way during the build process.
