The progress I have made on my project I asked my friend how much he spent on his gaming computer that he built from scratch. He said he spent about $2000 but his is bad ass. I also asked him if it could go any lower. He said the cheapest computer he built from scratch went as low as $300. He said he would help me find the perfect site to get supplies that are cheap but cool. I wrote down stuff that is needed to build one. I have money set aside not much but there is some.

“They Say, I Say” Article

People say that an inexperience person can’t build a computer, that a professional person should build a computer. Some say that it will not be cheap to build a computer from scratch. Most think you won’t be able to get parts because you are too young. They say it’s going to hard to build one. People also say you don’t have the time to do it.

He says it may take a while and a lot of work but it would be a good project. She says it a good project but will take too long before you finish the project. He says I can’t do it. She says I can.

I say I can do it. I also say is that I can do it fast and cheap. I say you can get parts at any age. I say I don’t have to be a professional. I say I can make time to do it.

My 20 time project is learning how to build a cheap gaming computer from scratch that a computer gamer will love. I hope I can build a cheap gaming computer that has great quality, great graphics, runs fast, has a 5 GB or higher storage and doesn’t crash very often. I plan on getting a career in electronics or something like that. What I plan to accomplish is just knowing how to build and fix a computer in general. I want to help my uncle or grandpa fix my mom’s laptop which just recently broke. I think it would be cheaper to build or fix a computer than just buying a new one or it might be the other way around. But anyway I can have help from a friend who built his computer from scratch if I need it. Well that’s my idea for my 20 time project.
