Mistakes when building hardware really are much more costly, but I see it as a separate question from whether it's hard or not.
I find it easy, but I still get a bit nervous about that 0.1% chance of losing lots of money. Programming is much harder but I'm never nervous because I can just fix the bug and recompile.

Damn, people are really worried about breaking shit?
I did "real" electronics and killed shit by reversing positive and negative from the power supply (my own damn fault for not using different colored wires), overheating components trying to solder them (newbie mistake of using a lower heat setting and ending up needing too long to work), and shorting wires until they burned because I was too dumb to insulate the contacts.
You learn by making mistakes. Don't buy shit if you can't afford to replace it. I put 50% of my after-tax income into savings and investments.

Most of the anxiety around PC building comes from convincing poorfags and children that they should be building a PC when $800 is an eyewatering amount of money to them, even if the components themselves aren't delicate or particularly fragile, they think one mistake will absolutely destroy their whole investment, it's nerve-wracking, many don't even really understand what they're buying or why they selected the parts that they did, they just copied the parts list verbatim from their favorite tech tuber, and if they face any issues not found in the video featuring the build they freak the fuck out.

One mistake can actually ruin your investment. Fuck up and put the CPU in backwards. Yes, we know it should be easy to put it in the right way, but they've literally never done this before and don't have the braincells to know up from down.

When I did PC building, I managed to make a 5 computer game system which works with raspberry pi's. Raspberry Pis make it quite easy, I don't really understand all the metal, there is a better way to get a case, but without the highly desired specs.

I had this fantasy idea that I could setup a 20 person console to play with friends at my house but I don't have any friends, I abandoned the project.

- most ledditors are millennials.
- millennials created spotify, facebook and a lot of other evil tech companies.
- most "oldfags" on 4chin do nothing to save their dying website because they would rather brag about how they are superior because... they just are, okay?
- millennials refused to reject the hell of modern computing, known as "mobile devices", and now blame zoomers for the same thing, just like they refused to do something about boomers ruining economy and xoomers ruining human relationships.

Had this experience building a PC for a friend in middle/high school. Accidentally bent a pin in the very corner of his Bulldozer CPU when putting it in. Luckily we've realized something was up with the thing failing to boot, and it was only a matter of bending the pin back with a needle. Still, I can imagine some people getting absolutely terrified of that, or thinking their entire PC is bricked for no reason.

It's a little tricky, whenever I build a new PC there are always at least two or three things that don't work from the outset and it can be annoying.
Components that are bigger than expected, cables that get in the way of your graphics card, cables that turn out to be too short when routed through the back, CPU fan error even though it appears to be working, monitor doesn't receive the GPU's signal, components that take so much force to push into their slots that you're unsure if they even belong in there and so on.
It's stuff that you can work through but it's definitely a handful to do and I always make sure I have the entire day available when building a new machine.
>>
This is probably a good thing. Building a PC that "works" in terms of just turning on is simple, but building a PC that is balanced and actually performs well seems to elude most people. Every day there is some jeet on /v/ complaining about optimization because some youtuber taught him that word, and if you dig into their jeet gibberish long enough to get details you always find the same shit, mismatched RAM sticks, top shelf GPU and decade old CPU, etc. These retards get lied to about how it isn't that expensive and "you don't need that for gaming" so they get shit parts, and then their budget box is poorly built. Most people are better off getting a prebuilt for an extra $100.

Skill issue, the last several computers I've assembled worked flawlessly on the first boot.
>>
>>107464892
to be fair, putting your CPU inside its gay little socket thing is still nerve wracking and still makes me go "yeowch that doesnt sound right"

everything else about putting PCs together is pretty easy though. it does hurt my soft little fingies though. also the last time i put my PC together, it gave me a generic "shits fucked" message with the CPU/DRAM boot light, so i had to order new parts and take an extra 8+ hours disassembling and reassembling to confirm that the store had sent me a totally bricked motherboard. so i do not think it is really even a good usage of one's time to do PC assembly by oneself. better let some wagie do it

10 year old black children frequently figure this out with a YouTube video and a pile of parts. Fucking grim.
If anything that means it'll just be another in the list of excuses to destroy personal hardware computing. They'll make up some shit about AI and the price of components at the same time they insist zoomers can't/won't build PCs so they can explain to dumbfuck genX board executives that the market "has no realistic future"
... Or some shit like that. I wonder if it's even true about zoomies at all. Might as well just be another astroturfed excuse to fuck us all.

Behold my frankenstein bargain bin SFFPC with most of the budget in the CPU and RAM.
The case is causing me the most problems. It has some sovl but the PSU that came with it exploded when I first turned it on so I'm waiting for a new one to be delivered. It has a small fan on the side with this connector that doesn't match anything else.
I assume it isn't important because that AMD CPU fan goes directly out the side vent.
I also had to look at the manual for the motherboard to know exactly where all the connectors were and what they were for so I wouldn't say it's retard proof.
Cable management is impossible in this form factor so I hope the new PSU will make it easier.
I figured it out pretty easily. My biggest fear was that I got the wrong type of RAM or motherboard or something.

I fried a GPU when I was a small kid and all the premium from buying prebuilt PCs still hasn't matched that loss, when adjusted for inflation. I am not going to start trying to not bend the pins on a CPU now, not worth the sweaty balls.

I use PCs for extended periods anyway, so I might as well buy a whole new one when I upgrade. The elements I don't need to change are about to break in 1-2 years.

>>107464892
It's a real complaint though. Boomers could afford to tinker with shit constantly because everything was cheap, they were all drowning in cash, they all had their own homes and things were designed in much more simple fashions. What percentage of zoomers own their habitat (I won't say home, because most don't even live in one)? What percentage has a fucking garage? What percentage can afford to lose hundreds if not thousands of dollars if they fuck up something? Then you have the fact their entire lives they were stalked by cameras and golems with phones ready to capture any mistake and try to socially kill them online, even their parents joining in on it sometimes. If a zoomer even breathes at a zoomette he can get accused of rape.

Zoomers cannot afford to fuck up, are punished brutally for any mistake, so they become terrorized of trying anything and simply erase themselves from social life. And they don't have the money for any autistic hobby that can't be done for free or cheap from their pc.

I've built a PC only once so maybe my perspective is limited but I got a friend to help explain stuff to me and he mentioned how you have to be extremely careful with the CPU because the pins can get bent and the CPU becomes unusable.
Its not difficult per se, because yes you're just putting pieces into slots. but the pieces being fragile, breakable, and expensive and sometimes you still need to use force to get certain pieces in makes the whole situation uncomfortable. Having someone at least explain a couple things about the process helps.

False, I am a zoomer and I have built my PC from the age of 14. Now I am compiling binutils and gcc for my custom linux distribution for use on that custom built PC.

Zoomers use "12345"

>ZOOMERS ARE REJECTING PC BUILDING BECAUSE IT'S TOO HARD
I'm a zoomer and I've never built a PC. I've paid others to build a PC for me.
But I am about to replace a graphics card.
So far this is the only training for the task I've had being this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGDRn-AQmHU

Wish me luck bros.

When I did my first build I thought it was hard, then later I got a job and some boomer would be honestly kind of rough with the laptop guts and I learned a lot and realized these parts are not nearly as fragile as you'd think. Hardest part is just doing research and learning how things interact with each other.

Because it's operation glado 2.0, breed a culture of isolated and terminally online kids/teens and post-ironic memes do the rest; you don't even need to have a glowie behind a monitor anymore.

Its easier than ever. No need to bother with motherboard flashes, or other driver cancer. Peripheral design in modern cases is way easier to manage than older ones. There are still a few things you have to watch out for but that's just selecting the correct specs.

So are Sharty niggers, basically meth babies? I've dealt with zoomers both in the military and civilian life and they are beyond help.

PC parts actually are delicate though. It's not like building legos once you get past the surface level comparisons. And that's not getting into software issues. One of my mobos just refused to work with my rx 6600 for no discernable reason. Had to get a new mobo from a different generation instead. I have a feeling most of you just have other people actually build the PC for you.

You people are dumb and stuck in a bubble. This means nothing for the PC market because this is not a zoomer mindset, this is a normie mindset and has been the normie mindset for decades. It would be one thing if the people saying this were tech enthusiasts, but they're not. They're not apart of the PC building crowd. If anything there are more zoomers ready and willing to build a PC than any other generation because they have spent so much time in ecosystems like /g/ saying it's a good course of action. But you can't accept that. You have to see something and start sperging out about it and exadgerate and distort it so you can keep your sperg-streak going because you people just love being miserable.

My dad was an early techbro who taught BASIC in college. When I was 14 I got into building PC’s and he got me a bunch of old Altair 8800’s that were going to be tossed at his job to practice with. This was like in the late 90’s early 00’s and I he made me learn how to solder. Glad I did in retrospect, but I honestly just wanted to build a gaming PC to play UT99.

I’ve only met one zoomer who built his own PC and he was some Valorant streamer. And if I’m not mistaken he said he had a friend help him. Meanwhile, you got millennials in the late 90’s gutting their dad’s old 486, over clocking it, and jerry rigging a Voodoo 2 card so they can play Quake 2.

lots of tech fa/g/s in their late 30s had dads from tech jobs bringing in loads of tossed out tech.
My dad worked for lufthansa and we had a bunch of office computers, audio equipment n shit that I had the pleasure to tinker with. I was the only 14y/o in my town that had his own home theatre, 4x 600W speakers and a 800x600 DLP beamer.
I fucked my first GF during a moviethon, on a couch i think we also got from dads workplace.

nothing, what you're seeing is that normalfags have been steadily creeping into what used to be "nerd" spaces as accessing the internet has become easier.

I don't zoomers are going to turn away from PC building any more than any other generation. I think other generations are just older, and so have more money on average, so they can build more PCs as a group, and that's what you see online.

The real reason is because building a pc is too expensive nowadays

One time I was dusting out my computer, had 4 sticks of 4GB DDR3 RAM in the slots. Dusted everything out and put everything back in. BIOS said I had 12GB. Okay probably just a seating issue, reseated each stick, kept giving me different amounts. Thought for certain I somehow killed a DIMM when cleaning everything, maybe sheared off a tiny little chip or something. After manually testing each and every stick with no issues I finally take a look at the slots, maybe something broke with the slots.
What actually happened? A small piece of dog hair was lodged in the 3rd or 4th slot preventing the DIMM from working right. Whoops.

Just a funny memory I wanted to share.

It's more that people refuse to do anything.
No barriers to do lots of basic maintenance on most vehicles but they still rather pay $400+ for a single axle brake job or $150 for an oil change.
