**Early Days of Gaming and PC Enthusiasm**

I remember being six years old when I first started playing games on my brother's computer, an original X-Com game, Dune, and other classic DOS games. At that young age, I was hooked on gaming, and it was all thanks to my brother Antoine who introduced me to the world of PC gaming. Although I didn't fully understand how DOS worked at the time, I knew I wanted to be a part of this exciting world.

As I grew older, my interest in gaming only intensified. By the age of three or four, I started playing games on a Dell Optiplex GX240 PC, which was also for school purposes. It wasn't long before I discovered Visual Boy, a Gameboy emulator, and NFS Underground. These experiences sparked a passion within me that would last a lifetime.

**Favorite Games and Gaming Memories**

Looking back, I don't usually replay games or watch movies, but there are some titles that stand out in my mind as favorites. Mass Effect is one such game that I've played multiple times, perhaps three to four times, because it was so engaging and addictive on both a gameplay and storytelling level. The series taught me a lot about ethics, people, and the importance of choosing between right and wrong. Even now, when considering games to play, Mass Effect trilogy often comes up as one of my top recommendations.

**Gaming Community and Future Aspirations**

I've also been part of gaming communities, such as Discord groups, where I'd talk about games with friends and share tips and strategies. However, while engaging in these discussions, I've come to realize that my favorite type of game is still a PC-exclusive experience. The sense of immersion and storytelling in PC games is unmatched.

In terms of the future, I'm excited to explore new gaming experiences. While I do appreciate RGB aesthetics and don't mind having it as an option when purchasing a new computer or upgrading existing hardware, I believe that functionality and performance should always come first. If a component is capable of delivering high-performance results without relying on unnecessary visual flair, then it's something I'd consider in my next build.

**Building and Customizing PCs**

One of the most interesting aspects of gaming is customizing and building one's own PC. For those who are new to this world, I would advise that you don't feel like you need to master the installation process yourself; rather, focus on learning about each component, what they do, and their relative value in terms of price and performance. Trustworthy computer shop technicians can handle these installations for you.

Moreover, I believe it's essential to research thoroughly before making a purchase, even if it means spending a bit more time learning about PC hardware and its various components. When buying from reputable sources like Hardware Sugar, it's crucial to have a basic understanding of the parts you're purchasing, especially when dealing with shop deals or promotions.

**Lessons Learned from Building PCs**

Lastly, I've come to realize that building PCs is not just about throwing money at components; there are many factors to consider, such as power consumption, noise levels, and long-term reliability. If done correctly, it's rewarding and fulfilling experience that teaches you a great deal about the world of PC gaming.

In particular, my own experiences with building PCs have shown me how difficult it can be for some people to find suitable parts, especially when trying to establish an optimal cooling system, such as an AIO (All-in-One) liquid cooler. In this instance, not taking the time to research thoroughly could result in disappointing performance or poor reliability.

Through my journey of building and customizing PCs, I've come to appreciate the importance of knowledge and research in the world of gaming hardware. Whether it's learning about individual components or understanding the overall architecture of a system, having that knowledge can make all the difference when choosing the right parts for your next build.

**A Word from the Author**

Lastly, I'd like to thank our top fans, Christian Espinosa and Rafael James, for their ongoing support. Your dedication to Hardware Sugar means the world to us, and we're grateful for every moment you spend with us on this platform.

enough and they're selling it for hundred uh 1000 pesos so i got that monitor and it changes my pc experience drastically it changed my life i remember playing those games the first civilization doom 2 the original doom 2 the original wolfenstein adventure games like monkey island uh they have the tentacle maniac mansion star control man i mean there's so many so many great games so i was around 10 years old we got our first computer for 86 and ever since then i got doom 2 the original dune 2 warcraft 2 original warcraft 2 then again warcraft 3 and then starcraft starcraft 2. i mean around you know 9 the early 90s because of course there were pc games before that in the early 90s when i first started graphics cards if you can imagine sound cards and maybe like the late 90s they started introducing individual graphics cards i i say individual cases to specific cards all cards will work with all games my fascination with computers and unexplored was a gaming hobby when we got our

nah damn that you know i look back and sometimes i don't usually tend to replay like i don't really watch movies i don't reread books usually um but you mass effect i've i've i've replayed that twice or thrice already so no like super 100 favorite game but definitely a lot of titles that i look back on ucha those were good times content my favorite all-time pc game is the mass effect series because it was so painstakingly addicting both on a game level design and a story design so much so that i feel it taught me a lot about ethics people and how to choose between right from wrong and
