I’d normally describe all the specs of the machine, but I already have a new owner for the computer. L and R from work flipped a coin to decide the winner. A spec sheet would go from a decision making tool for you, the reader, on whether this giveaway was for you, to pure vanity.
And for the astute, dedicated readers out there (read: “Hi Mom!”), yes I reused the desk image. It’s resourceful, not lazy. That’s my story, at least.
By the way, in the process of building computers like this during middle/high school I learned a fun fact: If you forget to remove the little white patch of paper on the bottom of a heatsink, the processor will run for a good five, maybe six seconds. Neat, huh!

Oh gosh… lol.… I remember that! And also what a bitch it was sometimes to clip some of those processor fans (think that is what they are called) on the motherboards. And just think…all the little tidbits of computer knowledge I have — I have learned from my son :) Thanks bud.
