Okay Internet, Iver tasked my self with the restoration/Case Mod/Upgrade of my First desktop computer i bought myself for college: early 2012ish HP pavilion P6-2143

 

This build will be a gaming rig for my Girlfriend that will play pretty casual games such as minecraft and dota 2.

 

Budget: As Cheap As Possible (LTT pun lol) Made 90% from parts i have laying around

 

The build will be space themed (shades of purple/black/white/blue) 

 

So far the Harware comes out to:

 

AMD A6-3600  2.4GHz

HP FM1 Socket motherboard (Wish i had another FM1 Laying around)

120 SSD

250HDD...meh could be worse

400Watt Generic Power from another build getting upgraded

Generic Cooler( this cooler is a modified Intel Pentium 4 tall Cooler looks like)

Radeon Saphire 6670 Ultimate

 

Needs DDR3 Ram probably 8GB

 

Game Plan

Acrylic side Window

Front Mesh 140mm intake Fan

New Air Cooler

New Paint 

New Fans

Top Vent

Upgrade Rear Vent

Dust Filters

 

I know this isn't laid out the best way, but its my first build log so bare with me.
