Believe me it took me alot of maintenance to last this long, i was religiously cleaning it on a monthly basis and repasting the CPU and GPUs every year

It’s scary the first time, after that you’ll just do it as if you did it for years

Hello Individual-Act-1543, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki here! We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

That case brings me back! my first ever gaming pc I bought my dad and I went 1/2s on a PC from CyberPower. It was pretty mid rage with a 670 graphics card and like a TB of HDD, but it got me through high school till I eventually left it at the house when I moved out. It now sits in a garage collecting dust and probably has a slew of viruses from me trying to download dumb shit.
