@@cuzr702 Probably for the best, not only due to cost but also due to the many potential issues the 12VHPWR connector has. It's not exactly an reliable connector and to put that into an kids PC? I wouldn't do it due to wouldn't give me peace of mind of less issues.
Reminds me of my mom when she bought me my first computer and we built an intel P1 system together which led me down a career in IT. I will be the IT Director of a large international company next year all thanks to her. I miss her :(
Very nice, i'm 41 now but i still remember it like yesterday how my parents gifted me a Commodore Amiga 500 all the way back in the 90s when i was little, and we had a MSX1 computer before that, so it was a huge jump regarding graphics and sound.

I remember sitting and playing Pong, all the local kids wanted to come see it and have a go, then we had Atari 2600, sitting by the fire and playing after school, seems so simple back then.

It's the one close I tried to find with first ever 64/128MB GPU
it's always funny to see parents being happy about the gifts they totally didn't want themselves :D :D
What a nice mom, thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas to you and yours. 👍🏻🎄🎅🏻❄😊
So you made your kid a super gaming pc for Christmas with mostly spare parts you already had! Well played!😊

still looks more expensive then what most kids get
Your son sure is blessed to have you as his mom. 👍 He better be more nice to you.
what a great gift.. cheers.
Thank you for posting this excellent discussion of building a new system for your son. I believe the component choices are all excellent. I'm especially glad you installed the nicer processor and additional RAM. I think that will make possible some wonderful discoveries in the future. I also really like the willingness to create a special, unique system that will appeal -- it looks so visually great to me. I want to compliment the outstanding presentation of the system itself and the videography. You really know how to present to an audience and you really know how to make the set look good. I am very much looking forward to Part 2.
Looks like a great machine. What a lucky kid. It will last him quite a few years.
Lucky kid 😊It's not every day when you hear about mom's gaming PC being the best one in the house. And Merry Christmas to the Techtesters team!
This is a huge upgrade. I went with an all white high end build with the gigabyte aero oc 4090/ 7800x3d/ 64 gigs of ddr5 in the white phanteks nv7. The pc is a beast and I keep it clean.
Yep! What an awesome mum! Hope he loves it and you all have a good Christmas! 🎄
Your son is very blessed.
I can't believe I've only just now found this channel. Excellent video quality, and I appreciate how you gave more pragmatic hardware recommendations when you were discussing the overkill components. Great stuff and I hope he enjoys his new rig!
This kid is gonna be bouncing off the ceiling! Had me grinning like a kid myself watching this!
I am up for adoption. 🥺🥺🥺 😂 Seriously though, you are an amazing mum! Great job. I always enjoy your channel.
Cool build! Great full AMD system. Your kid is lucky to have mom who is PC hardware professional)
Mums are the best. My mum helped me get my first PC when I was about 13/14, I couldn’t afford it (obvs) and she got a second job to help me pay for it. I will never forget that. It was a slot A Athlon 700mhz, I don’t quite recall the rest of the specs but it served me well back in those heady days at the turn of the new millennium.
What a cool mum! 🤍 He's going to be stoked 🎉🤙🏼

My parents bought me a compaq 133mhz with 1 gb hard drive..
Didn't know moms did this! Merry Christmas to you all.
Thank you for sharing Nada and think it's safe to say your son will love his gift🙂 Merry Christmas to you and your family and the all the best for the New Year...
Are you looking to adopt a 30yearold child at heart? 🤣 Kidding aside… you really are the coolest mum! Have a lovely holiday season to you and your fam!
Happy holidays and happy new year Nada. Thank you for the awesome content!
Mother of the year.
I have no idea how Santa Claus will bring it through the chimney, but maybe the Netherlands have bigger ones!
That's one lucky kid! Merry Christmas, everyone!
that's parenting done right , merry christmas
You clearly are the best mom, this rig will rock!
Amazing gift 👏🏻
Amazing build. The front grill and the tinted side glass looks really nice dampening the RGB just a little.
I like the Luka Bazooka nickname from the previous CPU Cooler 😅 Pretty badass 😎
Aw this is so wholesome
what a lucky little man! Good mom are best people at this world :) Happy new year to you and your family

Your son is super lucky, I hope he knows that, Coolest mom ever!
Super cool mom! Lord bless you and Merry Christmas!
Dang super lucky kid! When I was young my parents wouldn't even get me a $4 pack of pokemon card let alone a gaming pc
Lucky kid, this is great stuff to do for him. I like the build.
Nice system... Happy gaming Luca.
Merry Christmas!🎄🎁🎅🤶
Techmas came early. Good job Nada, Greetings. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
nice build. Merry Christmas!
Awesome build, that's one heck of a Christmas present!
Coolest mom in the universe ❤ +Congrats to your son ✌🏻
great present this is for your kid! i got the same cooler/3 extra fans and also 7800x3d its a no brainer
More Love and Best wishes to Luka
Congrats on the clean build! The only thing I would also double check before he starts gaming is to make sure that Hardware Accelerated Graphics Scheduling is not enabled in Windows Display setting. I have had issues with HAGS on my RX 7900XTX Nitro+. When I leave it disabled, it works far better.
Luca, your mom is AWESOME!!!!!
That's very kind of you for your son 🥹 He really deserves a great gift since he's always caring and never asked for anything 🥹, he's gonna be a great man for sure 🥰. I wish you and your whole family a merry Christmas and a Happy new year 🎉😊
Still super informative but this has the added touch of the personal side, loved this video, specially due to the season of family focus! 🎉
I love that case! And love the RGB
Now that's a good mother! Well done.
What a nice Mom✨ the coolest💯
Yes mom I need this for my homework! Happy holidays team Techtesters!

Word and PowerPoint have become quite the resource sinks these days - even worse if you use a special mode, like bold or underlined text, and a blinking cursor 😁 But as we all know, RGB lighting alone already increases the performance by at least 30%, depending on how annoying it has been configured to be 😋
bit late to the party, but man, are you such an awesome and wholesome mother hope this year has been treating you kindly, and here's to next year
You are a W Mom! Happy Holidays!
Merry Christmas Kid 🙂
A colleague of mine also had a similar build and he also just upgraded. His 2080 didn’t helt well in the new games he played so he upgraded to a 4070. That shows how quickly good videocards become outdated so soon. In Forza his game and stream stuttered a lot.
Beautiful build!!!! Build team red loyalty at a young age....love it!!!!
Maximum Christmas treat 😁He must like it !
Lucky dude! Way to go mom.
And me, as a 13 years old kid being asking for an AMD Athlon 64 and 6600GT and still won't getting it... Best mom indeed!
Lucky kid!
Mooi gedaan en fijne feestdagen en een gelukkig en gezond 2024.
You have to be the coolest mom of all time. Cheers!
Thats a nice pc. I have a a similar pc from corsair. Except cpu intel and RTX gpu. Love pc gaming.
Nice rig.
Nice. Happy Holidays! ❤
Merry Christmas to You and your family ✝
Lucky man! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Best Mom Ever.... ❤❤❤❤
Santa Mama.
ONLY around 3500 euro´s... best mother ever i would say ❤

My oldest son is also named Luka and he has a PC I built 😊
wow your sons pc is better than my pc. its so overkill...just make sure he has this pc for at least 4 years because its a beast
Lucky son, ngl.
Best mom ever!!❤
i just want somebody like you for christmas lol
I wonder when budget brands will start using the single cable ( or 2 ) for fans? Like I wonder if Montech would ever come out with anything like that, I actually switched to their fans as my king 95 pro came with a few and it was much cheaper to just grab 3 of those instead of an extra 5 LLs. I swapped from a 280x purely because any of the newer high end cards pretty much will not fit unless I pay a lot more ( stuff like pro series from ASUS ) or go FE. I know the LLs are better overall but the temps have never been an issue even in that hotboxed 280x. 3080 and 5800x3D never got close to thermal throttling ever nvm the card never going above 67c and the CPU in the hottest of days was like 85c, being in the UK I am 99.99% of time never at the 85c mark, more like 60s.
What an incredible mother you are Nada!! Your son is gonna LOVE THIS!!! ❤ Happy Holidays
Can you make a video about cable management by me it is a mesh. And how to clean a old pc.
Yes, perfect gift indeed. Now to find someone who will send one to me.
I wish you were my mom ❤
nice pc
Luka Bazooka great handle :D Awesome stuff, best mom :D
