Hey, what's up guys! I'm going to take some Graphic Design classes and some Motion graphics class this fall. I want a to build a desktop just because I feel more comfortable in them. I'm a noob at looking for the right parts so can any of you guys help me and hook me up with a build? I know I can easily get a Mac but ugh Apple. Lol please, and thank you
