I’m planning on building a PC soon and, while I have done plenty of research, I’d like to hear advice from people who have experience in the area personally. It’s also just nice talking to other people in general, lol
https://pcpartpicker.com/ or https://pcpartpicker.ca if you’re Canadian is very helpful for drafting up a build or shopping for parts, specially if you’re a newbie. You can even find recommended builds on there.
Slightly different advice from what others have said, but while building it, I’ve always used an anti static wristband, grounded to either ground or the pc case. Maybe I’m overly paranoid, but that’s what I was taught, and haven’t had any issues with ESD so far
My only advice is know yourself well. Know what you’ll use this computer for. I knew that I was going to use my PC as a glorified Stardrew machine so I skimped on the graphics card. I knew my real goal was digital art so I got a good CPU and tons of RAM.
Love my PC and use it every day.
