Hey I finished my first PC build about two months ago......and I love it. I play games on it and watch videos and post, but I don't know what to do next. I like to have goals for life and right now all I have is high school. For the 8 months before I built my PC I would spend time working at my goal, to build a great gaming PC. Looking for parts posting questions etc. Now that I have built it I do not have a project for the summer. Currently I have to work on school. Any Ideas on what to do next? I want to learn some languages of code, but thats about it. What did you do after you built your first PC? Do you have any video game suggestions? I like about every type of game. Any thing is fine. 

 

 

Thanks

After I built mine, I was pissed when I realized that a good ASUS motherboard, graphics card, and CPU were just a few dollars more.
