    In our case, my partner’s desktop had broken down completely (they later ended up with parts from my ex’s computer that they could use to fix the issues) a while ago, and they had to use a very old laptop as well. I’m a really avid gamer and I’m learning to code, plus I stream for my partner everything from videos, to movies, to video games. Plus we play together. So I feel you!

    Currently the remaining parts will be here Friday and then I have to figure out how to put them in. I didn’t build my current desktop and have only done small things in it so far. There’s also wiping things clean for the dual boot, and to help ensure the issues hopefully clear up on the software end. I did at least enjoy learning about different Linux distros.

    Thank you for this message! It made me feel a bit better.

      Chiming in to wish you luck with the rebuild! I recently built a PC for my wife and I after ~15 years of not building pcs. Don’t be worried, be methodical and have your motherboard diagram up so you can reference what you’re pulling and adding as you go.
