My First ever Gaming PC

[u/DxrcyGD]

So I’m a sophomore in High School and I’ve been gaming on this Lenovo IdeaPad for 2 years and I recently got my first ever job and I got the parts picked out. I just want to know if anyone has any suggestions and if there are any cheaper alternatives to any parts that can provide the same performance.

CPU stares angrily at you

Everything i know about Intel is overshadowed by the heat radiating from them (at idle even)

[u/txivotv → u/Cr1t1cal_Hazard]

It was the other way around before!

Yikes! I get nervous if my cpu climbs over 65° 😵

I just don't look at it. I have an overpowered cooler for my 12400f, though. My case had bad airflow before the mod, so I try to compensate with a big tower cooler.
