I am proud that my son built his first PC successfully. It was a great achievement for a 15-year-old planning, researching, learning, and building a PC all by himself. Well, I admit this new PC is way much more powerful than a "Student PC". It belongs to the different category "Gaming PC". However, it is worth every penny seeing the big smile in my son's face.
