Super Star
Had to buy a computer for myself as I didn't want to use my fathers all the time, so I saved up and bought my first computer back in November 2013.
The computer has been working fine for me. One annoying thing is that I have trouble with a noisy fan on the top of the case that I've never sorted out.
I had to change the GPU as one of the fans had packed up, I was recommended the GTX 6GB 1060 Zotac and has been working perfectly. Even the temperature has been seriously cooler than the AMD GPU.
I've only cleaned the computer a few times because I'm nervous about taking everything out.
I'll be upgrading to a new computer at some point, but not in a rush.
