[jenna]

Hi!! I have absolutely no clue how to build a tower or anything about them however I play league and i don’t wanna play on a laptop anymore lol. I need help with the supplies that i need. my budget is around 600 USD. I would really appreciate a list of everything needed (willing to pay you for your time!) I’m really only gonna be using it for league maybe COD and school work.

It's significantly better than that craigslist pc you posted earlier.

A little over budget, but with Black Friday sales you should easily be able to squeeze it in.

Really, you should wait until the 27th-ish...by then the flyers will have leaked, and we can make you a list knowing what's going on sale.

Aye.

The only tricky part is putting the CPU in properly, and it's just being careful and matching up the arrow on the corner of the CPU to the arrow on the socket.

Good luck!
