I built a Frackin' Computer!!
Friday, January 4, 2008 at 03:14PM In this episode of Tekzilla, Tech guru Patrick Norton baptized me into Nerdom: I can proudly say that I now know how to build a PC!
This project has been something that I have been passionate about attempting for a while. My ultimate dream is to build a bad ass gaming PC-- building a basic $500 is definitely a step in the right direction. The biggest thing to get over is that you gotta use force. Not quite the Force, but a PC builder shouldn't be afraid of using a bit of muscle when snapping all the components into place. That was my biggest struggle [knowing that everything won't break, and requires you to push it good!].

Congrats. The first of many - we hope. It wasn't that hard, was it?
You did a great job, Neha!
When will Patrick finally stop building computers and just submit to buying Macs. :)
Good job on putting it together. See, it wasn't that hard after all. Good luck on installing the OS.
its not hard. i have just started building my 'beast' too
Ha ha, well done, something else to put onto your resume?
Great job neha! You should be happy you weren't wiring up audio ports and usb ports for the case, those can get pretty annoying too.
You should definitely do more on screen roles, you seem great for it. (^_^)
Best of luck!
Haha, this reminds me of a geeky cooking show. Welcome to Stage 3! ;)
Love Tekzilla, love Rev3 and love you Neha. You're absolutely gorgeous. :)
Hi Neha! Just wondering, are you in any way still involved with Tekzilla because I havn't seen you recently?
