    Similar story here. Just no YouTube.

    My only mistake was buying the motherboard first, without actually thinking about it or considering what components would go in it. I knew the components needed to match, but I didn’t think “what’s the best performance for the money”.

    I was a kid, so I went on eBay and bought the first motherboard I saw, and then researched what components I would need to make it work.

    I’ll spare the specifics, but let’s just say I ended up with a system that was significantly aged and underpowered for its time and how much I spent.

    Good learning experience though.
