, For my course project, I have chosen to build a desktop computer for gaming. The
reason why I chose a gaming computer is because I have always been a heavy gamer and the
last item that I will need to max my gaming experience amazing is a gaming pc. The operating
system I would run would be Windows 10 Home 64-bit version. This OS runs for about $93 USD.
Some features that Windows 10 provides are multitasking by putting four things on the screen
at one time, a new web browser where you can type directly on the web page, new onscreen
feature that adapts for easy navigation, and Windows recognition allows you to login without
using a passcode. This operating system is provided by BestBuy.
