Hey guys, I made a thread a couple of months ago for some help on my first PC build that I was planning to do this year. I was trying to save my money but I spent most of it before the year was done. I need help on some money saving tips for a person who is in High School. I get $5 lunch money every school day and sometimes $15 for the weekend. I really want this PC next year so I can finally do some PC gaming.
