I built a PC for the first time. I couldn’t have done this by myself, as I’m not tech savvy enough to build a PC from scratch. But I did pick the colour of my case (white, to match my Nintendo Switch OLED) and I helped screw in some of the screws. Hahaha.

I also got a new keyboard, mouse, monitor, and desk mat. The new monitor was unexpected but my family coincidentally had an unopened extra monitor in storage, so that was nice. I have to thank my boyfriend for gifting me the desk mat, mouse, and keyboard. I also have to thank two of my friends for donating their spare keycaps to me, which is how I was able to customize it.

Anyways, I’m absolutely in love with my PC. My favourite part about the setup is the keyboard because it has keycaps from three different keyboards. It was so much fun customizing it, and I think I did a good job with it. The keyboard is from Keychron and it can light up.
My other favourite part is my case because it has a clear cover. I put two of my stands in there (WangXian and BingQiu).

Edit on November 14, 2022: I bought a Bulbasaur keycap a little while ago. My keyboard feels more complete.

That’s so cool! I think screwing in some screws still means you “built” your PC π And I LOVE the keyboard! So funky. I never thought of customising a keyboard before and it’s very cool that it lights up in the dark!!

Congratulations on getting a full-up PC and not a laptop or tablet. Hope you have a big monitor and a killer graphics card. I love how I can pull a 20 mb image (or a 600 mb video file) into my editor and do things in a snap that my laptop would bog down with.

Thanks! My computer can finally play my games. Having a Macbook was no good for that, as I couldn’t play a ton of games. Or it would heat up super quickly.
