From HP prebuilt to... Something new-er

Wanted a new GPU to put in my hella old HP Envy 750, then put a new psu, then ended up getting new ram... And a new motherboard.........and a new case and fans. The only parts left are the drives and the CPU. Built it with my dad when he visited for Christmas, and with both of us being kinda clueless, there were more than a few *major* hiccups. We figured them out, though, and for my first build, I'm pretty proud of this little thing, and I learned a huge amount doing it.
