Title: How to build a PC - Part 1 - Newegg TV
Author: Newegg Studios
Text Type: YouTube Video
Date: Friday 31st  March

This video is based on building a computer from scratch for new computer builders. It had everything from Whats a computer to Parts and how to build a computer.


My perception of PC building changed because at first before I watched the video I thought computer building quite hard. But when I started watching the video I  learned that its not that hard if you have all the parts and some knowledge anyone can build a computer and it shows how powerful computers are. For example when Paul was talking about all the PC parts I learned that if you do little bit of research on your computer you want to build and the parts in the computer. Its not rocket science anyone that has the time and puts there mind to it can build one. It's just like connect the dots. Another example is when they show all the ipads, phones,laptops. They showed me how powerful a computer is compared to all those "hand held" devises. I relate to this because I play my games on a laptop but the games run very poorly so I decided to build my own computer so far I have brought the computer case and power supply.


This video explores ideas which are important in today's society because the i.t. industry is growing rapidly. More and more jobs are becoming bigger as in, in size of company and in paycheck. All though its not the main point of the video but computer building is in the i.t. industry. For example if you get really good at computer building you might be able to work for companies like Digital Storm and Alien Ware in the future. Another example is in 2014 there where 7,330 people in the i.t manager. industry according to careers.govt.nz. So in 2017, 3 years later it keeps growing. I relate to this because when I'm older I want to be a it manager or computer builder for the likes of Digital Storm as a full time job. If I start at a young age I could get lots of experience in the industry so bosses Will be more likely to pick me up and work for them.


In conclusion I think this video is really good for upcoming computer builders and people that want to get into i.t.. I think the DTE class should be able to watch this video in class time because it is a great video fro learning and would recommend it to any i.t. enthusiasts.

  3. Wow, that is amazing that you are going to build your own PC. I'm very impressed! It's also great that you already know what you want to do in life, and you are making plans to get there. Fantastic. For next time, could you include a specific quote/example in your second paragraph? What were they saying about the IT industry growing?
