Welcome to the world of custom PC building, where every component matters, and every choice reflects your gaming style and performance needs.

This guide is designed to walk you through each step of creating your dream gaming PC.

Step 1: Determine Your Gaming Needs and Budget

Before you start selecting components, consider what games you’ll be playing and what performance level you’re aiming for. This will help you set a budget and decide where to invest the most.

Step 2: Select Your PC Level

Choose a PC Level that aligns with your gaming experience and budget. Are you a Newbie, Casual Gamer, Hardcore Enthusiast, or a Pro Player? We have options for all, from cost-effective setups to top-of-the-line gaming beasts.

Step 3: Pick Your Components

Now comes the fun part – picking your components. Here’s a brief overview of what you’ll need:

• Processor (CPU): The CPU is the brain of your computer. Choose one that fits your gaming needs. For intensive gaming, consider high-performance options like the INTEL Core i9 12900K.

• Graphics Card (GPU): The GPU handles the visuals of your games. If you’re into AAA games or VR, a powerful GPU like the RTX 3090 might be necessary.

• Memory (RAM): RAM temporarily stores data for quick access. For smooth gaming, we recommend at least 16GB, but you can opt for more like 32GB DDR5 RGB.

• Storage: Choose between an HDD and an SSD, or use a combination of both. An SSD, like the 1TB NVME Gen4, is faster and offers quicker load times.

• Power Supply Unit (PSU): A PSU powers your system. Make sure it’s high-quality and offers enough wattage for your components, such as an 850W GOLD PSU.

• Motherboard: The motherboard connects all your components. It needs to be compatible with your chosen CPU and GPU.

• Case: Choose a case that accommodates all your components and has good ventilation for cooling.

Step 4: Assemble Your PC

Once you’ve gathered your components, it’s time to put them together.

Take your time, follow the instructions provided with each component, and make sure you ground yourself to prevent static electricity from damaging your parts.

Start with installing the CPU on the motherboard, then the RAM, and the cooler. Install the PSU in the case, mount the motherboard, and then add your storage and GPU.

Step 5: Install Your Operating System

With your PC assembled, it’s time to install your operating system, typically Windows for gaming. Follow the instructions provided by Microsoft to install it.

Step 6: Driver Updates and Software Installation

Once your operating system is installed, make sure to update all your drivers, especially for your GPU.

Install your desired gaming platform, be it Steam, Epic Games, or Origin, and start downloading your games.

Building your own gaming PC is an exciting journey that results in a setup tailored to your exact needs.

Take your time, enjoy the process, and look forward to countless hours of gaming fun on your new custom-built PC!

Remember, always refer to the specific instructions provided with each component and contact our customer service if you need any help.

Happy building!

Installing an operating system (OS) is one of the final steps in building your new gaming PC. The OS manages all of the hardware and software on your computer, so it’s essential to get it right. This guide will primarily focus on installing Windows, as it’s the most common OS for gaming.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you through this process:

1. Prepare Installation Media: First, you’ll need the installation media. For Windows, this is usually a USB flash drive. You can download a copy of Windows directly from Microsoft’s website and use their Media Creation Tool to create a bootable USB.

2. Insert the USB Drive: Insert the bootable USB drive into one of the USB ports on your new PC.

3. Boot Your PC: Turn on your PC and press the designated key to enter the BIOS/UEFI. This key varies by motherboard manufacturer but is typically one of the function keys (like F2, F10, or F12), the ESC key, or the DEL key.

4. Change Boot Order: Once in the BIOS/UEFI, look for the “Boot Order” setting. You’ll want to change this to boot from your USB drive first.

5. Save and Exit: Save your settings and exit the BIOS/UEFI. Your PC should restart and boot from the USB drive.

6. Install Windows: You’ll see the Windows Setup screen. Follow the on-screen instructions. You’ll choose your language, accept the license terms, and choose the type of installation (choose “Custom” for a new build).

7. Choose Where to Install Windows: Select the drive where you want to install Windows, usually your SSD or HDD. If the drive is brand new, you’ll have to format it.

8. Wait for Installation: Windows will now install. This process can take a bit of time. Your PC will restart a few times, and you’ll eventually be asked to set up a username, password, and other settings.

9. Install Drivers: Once Windows is installed, you’ll need to install drivers for your hardware. Windows will install some automatically, but you may need to manually install others, especially your GPU drivers.

10. Complete Installation: Finally, you’ll want to check for Windows updates and install them.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed an operating system on your new gaming PC. It’s now ready to download games and start playing.

Remember, if you encounter any problems along the way, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team. We’re here to help ensure your gaming PC is set up for success. Enjoy your gaming adventures!

Once your operating system is up and running, the next crucial step is updating your drivers and installing essential software.

Drivers are programs that help your operating system communicate with your hardware, while software programs allow you to use your computer effectively for gaming and other tasks.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you with this process:

1. Update Drivers: The first step is to ensure all your drivers are up to date. Your graphics card, in particular, will need the latest driver to ensure optimal gaming performance. Visit the manufacturer’s website (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel, depending on your GPU) to download the latest driver. Similarly, other components like your motherboard, CPU, and peripherals may also have specific drivers that you can download from the manufacturer’s websites.

2. Check for Windows Updates: Microsoft often releases updates that can improve system stability and performance. Make sure to check for these updates regularly. You can do this by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update, then click on ‘Check for updates’.

3. Install Gaming Platforms: You’ll need a platform to download and play games. Some of the most popular ones are Steam, Epic Games, Origin, and Uplay. Visit their respective websites to download their clients.

4. Install Performance Monitoring Software: Software such as MSI Afterburner or HWMonitor can help you keep track of your PC’s performance. They display real-time data about your system’s temperature, clock speed, usage, and more. This can be very useful for troubleshooting and optimizing your gaming performance.

5. Install Essential Gaming Software: Depending on your gaming needs, you may also want to install software like Discord for communication, OBS for streaming, or GeForce Experience for game optimization (if you have an NVIDIA graphics card).

6. Antivirus and Security Software: While Windows Defender (built into Windows 10 and 11) provides decent protection, you might want to consider additional antivirus software for added security. There are both free and paid options available from companies like Norton, McAfee, and Avast.

7. Regularly Update Your Software: Just like your drivers, you should regularly check for software updates. These updates can provide new features, improve stability and performance, and fix security vulnerabilities.

Remember, building your gaming PC is just the start of your journey. Regular maintenance, including updating drivers and software, will ensure you get the most out of your gaming experience. If you need any help or encounter any issues along the way, our support team is here to assist you.

Happy gaming!
