The first PC I ever built.
I finished building this last Saturday...
Ryzen 5 5600g
Radeon 5500XT
Cooler Master Q300L
MSI B550m Pro Vdh Wifi
G Skill Trident Z
Red Dragon Keyboard
I was surprised when I finally got it all assembled...I actually messed up the first motherboard I bought for it, ha.
@amicableox0685 that is amazing! What a great build. You must have been so proud of yourself and excited to try it! Truly an amazing project. Hats off to you!
I hope it bring syou many years of enjoyment.
It's so much more satisfying when using a PC you built!
Very nice built and looks good, good job on putting that together. 👍
The satisfaction of getting your PC built on your own !

Wowwww aren't you an amazing! You did a great job! Building computers may be your niche. You could do such amazing things as building custom made and designed computers for businesses and organizations, which will eventually bring in a financial abundance!
How long did it take you to create this masterpiece of yours?
@MsKarma
First time building it, about 4 weeks. What stumped me initially was the front panel connectors. Before even trying to put it in the case I assembled everything thinking that the motherboard had a power on button.
Realized that the case had its on source of power.
Everything else was a breeze.
Wouldn't recommend trying to build unless you're using a chip that has onboard graphics. Makes everything a lot simpler.
The project started off with just trying to find a way to expand my graphics on my laptop using what's called occulink or U.2 . My laptop's motherboard board didn't support that but trying to use the device for occulink was the stepping stone...
...Lo and behold
@amicableox0685 The other day, I needed to replace heat sink paste. The clips broke getting them out. I ended up buying a back plate. In order to install it, I had to unplug everything on that computer, and remove the entire main board. What should of been just a 5 or less minute job turned into an hour and a half job. Yeah I know what it is like connecting the front panel stuff. Lots of wires a diagram helps.
I think it's great that you have that kind of knowledge. Of course since it's your first build you encountered trial and error like any first time creator.
I'm sure it takes a lot to achieve the goal of building a computer and you did a wonderful job!
Awesome 😍😍😍😍
@amicableox0685 looks great!
