  • Updated Information, Accurate, Engaging Read, Great for the New PC Builder of the Family!
Great read I got this for my nephew who just turned 13 and wants to learn pc building. I myself am a passionate pc enthusiast been building for years finally get to teach someone willing to learn... But this book presents keeps him engaged and it's all up to date with the new tech such as nv.me drives etc. I heard he's been reading it everyday planning his new pc out in the meantime. Youtube is also great but nothing like a good old book reference nearby when building. ... show more

  • Excellent, up-to-date information for PC builders
I haven't built a PC in a few years, and I was behind the times on the latest tech like M.2 SSDs, PVM fans, hybrid fan headers, RGB LED strips for cases, and more. This book, fortunately, has clear instructions for building a computer with all the latest components, including Z490 motherboards and AMD Ryzen and Intel 10th gen processors. I highly recommend it to any novice or intermediate builder. ... show more
