One for the PC builders!

[J4CK8]

Here's a quick little post on a project I've been working on for a Leicester City Football Club themed PC.

This has been something I've wanted to do for a while. Originally intended as a birthday gift for my father but you know how it is with costs and time.

But with the recent tragedy of the club chairman I decided it was a good time to do something to savour a memory so I at least now have progress! It may be a relatively simple modification but I'm very happy with the results so far, and once money becomes a bit more available I'll be able to get some (albeit older) components in this thing!

The badge was from eBay, think they're out of stock now but they must take custom orders as they made it to size for me (though they screwed it up twice so I have a spare one thats about 9" diameter if that's any good to you).

Seller is graphattackuk (hopefully I'm okay posting that?) And the 1884 and LCFC are from eBay too, another vinyl seller that had a suitable font.

Just out of interest, how difficult is building a pc? And what are the expected costs?

It's easy, just follow a build guide on YouTube.

 

Cost wise, for a budget build that will smash every game on ultra settings at 1080p and some games 1440p you're looking at around £750, not including monitor, keyboard or mouse.

Pretty much as above, it's really easy but you need to know what you're doing so look up some guides/tutorials.

 

Costs can range from around £500 for a very basic entry level PC but something good spec £700-900 I'd say.

I work in IT. Built my desktop at home fairly cheaply about eight years ago when I first got into IT/hardware etc and still upgrade it when needed (graphics etc).
