need some ideas

[DMPCo]

I've been moving over alot of my pc related things to my new house from storage and have noticed olive (3yr old)
taking a big interest in the open pc's i have. she has been taking them apart and putting them back together (no power supply)
and she loves it. she tells me no nate let me do it it's righty tighty lefty loosey (it's hilarious) anyway me and her mom are thinking
of buying components for her to build her own pc the only thing i have so far it this 23 in touch screen monitor so any ideas would be great

haha nice, get her started on an Ubuntu linux touchscreen pc, she'll be alpha geek by 5 lol

It would be a good choice for her.

My daughter started doing about the same thing a few months ago, my wife and I got her a set of plastic screwdrivers that ratchet & I gave her an old HP case and some random parts, she's learning quick, already installs all 3 case fans on her own and knows where the ram and cpu go on the mobo. Kids love anything that their parents are doing so if she shows interest I would go all out and see where it takes you, you never know she could be the next Bill Gates! Good luck bro & happy gaming

Thats for sure. My daughter is only 3 and loves anything Jeep because of daddy having so many of them! I took her offroading since the age of 6 months old. She loves every moment of it. Even the times daddy bit off more than he could chew and got stuck!!

I don't think viper took the time to read the thread. He saw someone talking about hardware and his eyes started spinning out of control in his head, his heart nearly exploded and he knew his time was short, so he just posted his question before he blacked out. No time to read the details!

Sounds like me when i was that age. My dad taught me to build a computer when i was around that age and i've been a computer geek my whole life.

So you are at the right place cecil.

I would actually recommend building an AMD A series setup. You could use the same parts viper listed above(Except motherboard and cpu), but an AMD A series chip has a GPU on it and is actually capable of doing some light 3d stuff.

Here are some benchmarks:

The GPU on the chip is pretty much the best integrated graphics solution on the market right now.
