I don't know why, I find it refreshingly amusing how the text is centred. Don't see that used often anymore.

Obsessed with gadgets, PC's, and everything in tech! 

Desktop:

Yes, I know the server is more powerful than my main PC. I don't know why.

Hate to be that guy but building a PC takes like an hour or two and you save and learn so much.

Because it looks retarded and it's objectively hard to read.

Do you need a monitor? Mouse, keyboard? What all do you actually need?

You can't use the computer without any peripherals. Do you already have these or not?

Try one of the online retailers like Ibuypower, xidac, xotic PC.  You can configure a pc wih one of them with a i5, gtx 1060 and ssd.  That'll be under 1000 with a kick-ass case

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

no build it, take my word for it, it barely takes any time. If i just clicked buy, a while ago on a prebuilt I was looking at, my life would have been so much different and I would have missed out on the wonderful pc building community. Say like i'm from the future warning you not to get a prebuilt
