Hi, this is my first build ever. I am an 8th grader, currently I am working on my 8th grade Mentorship project. The purpose of the mentorship project is to give students the opportunity and responsibility for extending their learning experience beyond school, into the community in which they live. With the help of teachers and the parent community students select their own area of interest and mentors. I have chosen my project to revolve around “How to build a Gaming PC”. My dad is the owner of Mountain Mods. Mountain Mods is sponsoring the build. This computer will also be auctioned off on eBay and the money that is made will be donated to my school. Thanks for watching.
