Hey everyone! I'm excited to share my first PC build, though I had a pretty tight budget. My brother helped out with some parts, particularly the CPU cooler. Here are the specs:
- Motherboard: CIH61MI V1.1 (H61 Chipset, a hand-me-down)
- CPU: Intel Core I7-3770 (non-K version)
- RAM: 16GB DDR3 (2x8GB, I think it's limited to 1866 MHz, also a hand-me-down)
- Storage: 120GB Sandisk SSD for the OS and a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO for gaming
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER
- Case: Unknown Intel case
- Power Supply: EVGA B5 550W 80 Plus Bronze Fully Modular (hand-me-down)
- OS: Free unactivated Windows 10 Pro
- Monitor: Gateway 2000 FPD1975W TFT LCXD (900p, hand-me-down)
- Peripherals: Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition and Logitech G502 HERO (both hand-me-downs)
Thanks for checking it out! I'd love your thoughts and any constructive criticism.

To be honest, it looks like the peripherals might actually cost more than the PC itself! But hey, free is free. How’s the performance been for you?
Haha, yeah, my brother had no use for them, so it worked out! I’ve been running some games, and surprisingly, they’re working well on medium settings.
