Well I'll say you definitely picked goods times to get your parts if you didn't have a big budget to begin with. But don't make the mistakes I made when I was young and not appreciate what you got. I think i was about 17 or 18 before I started treating my computers like faberge eggs

I've always appreciated my computer, I clean it out regularly and the same goes for my keyboard and desk as well. I wanted to get a PC when I was younger but didn't have enough money at the time.

I'd assume that's just european pricing and you weren't getting ripoff on the GPU.
Also, can we get photos?

Sure! I wouldn't say I got ripped off but I'm not sure, I bought it from a retailer close to me.

 

PS: I cannot see the glass panel or my PC due to circumstances but idc.

Noice! If I were you, my next move would be to buy better case fans for the front and rotate the CPU cooler 90 degrees to line up with the outtake and intake.
