Thanks ebay!
Budget build project #1 - The all white ebay build
In the last 2 weeks I got a blessing from the IT gods and was asked to build 3 new machines for 3 different kind of people.
This is number one for my girlfriend.
My girlfriend wanted a gaming PC for a long time. (she is a programmer and plays a lot of games)
Her birthday was coming up and I wanted to give her a PC.
She talked my ears off for months about how she wanted an all white gaming PC.
Unfortunately my broke ass did not have that much money :(
So I went to Ebay and here is what I found!
Cooler, Motherboard and CPU
Found a really nice deal for these components;
- Dark rock 4 pro cooler
- Asus prime Z370A
- And a Intel 8700K
Price: 250 euro
graphics card
This deal was "Ok".
Found a 2070 Super for 300 euro.
Case, RAM, PSU, Storage
The case, RAM, storage and PSU are not Ebay bought.
RAM: The RAM I wanted was just as expensive new as it was on Ebay. Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro white Edition is always a good choise!
CASE: could not find a case in the theme my GF wanted, so I bought the Corsair 4000D Airflow.
PSU: I prefer to buy PSU new, the Cooler Master V850 Gold V2 White Edition was perfect.
Storage: Also prefer to buy it new, Samsung EVO 980 PRO 1TB.
Aftermath
Well after some waiting, praying to the IT gods and delivery time stress, I had build the perfect gaming computer for her, in white theme, with decent specs.
Keep in mind she plays at 1080P :)
Loved doing this build!
It was my first time using Ebay for parts.
And I'm thinking about doing this kind of builds for a hobby!
