Overview / Usage

I have created and designed this pc in hopes of winning a PC and for the Intel Internship. I was going to personally buy and build my first PC before seeing the Intel Student PC Challenge. I saw the challenge from Austin Evan and I had to take a leap. It's a powerful machine that can help me in my University journey (SJSU Freshmen). I'm in an MIS major right now, but I want to seek stock trading. This PC can serve me in that goal for my life. It can help me in every aspect of my life currently and in the future. The internship is also very important because as a university freshman I am looking to intern somewhere. Intel is somewhere where my passion can run wild. The PC creation, competition, and possible internship are what have inspired me to go over the mile for my project. This creation serves as a possible inspiration to intel staff, fellow companions, and viewers for what can be created with imagination.

Methodology / Approach

For my creation, I first planned out and later began my build. I got my ideas for the build from the different events of my life. My dad has always worked in a machine shop, and he has created amazing things with different kinds of materials like metal. I decided to use brushed aluminum with the combination of shined metal for my build. I decided to use these things because of the cool aesthetic and because the creation reminds me of what I have grown up and seen. The RGB and honeycomb combo work swiftly, and it's very appealing. This came from long thinking and comparison between nature and the case. I got the free trial for Adobe PS, and I learned how to photoshop for my build in just one week. So much effort went into learning, inputting, planning, and creating my build on this platform. I bought PC Building Simulator, which is a platform for PC building. I created a PC that looks similar to what the inside of my creation would look like. These are the major things I used for my project. I plan to form a great setup if I do get selected to move on. I currently own a Vitesse gaming desk, which can pair up finely with the build.

The importance of Intel's products and technologies:

This technology, which is being provided by Intel, is extravagant and essential for someone with many tasks and workloads. The power supply is platinum, which assures great power performance, quality, and more while being compact. The SSD has efficient outputs in every aspect compared to its competitor, the 980 PRO. The WD SSD ties neck to neck with Samsung's, but it breaks the tie when working with higher information and workloads, which is important for a student when working on various projects throughout the same time period. The GPU is better than its competitor, the MSI Ventus 3070, as it has greater cooling, looks, and performance. This GPU is awesome, and it will provide for essentially any need. The case is a sleek design with great silence and cooling, which can be great for concentration when studying for your next exam. The heatsink is awesome and performs great as it cools the CPU for maximum performance. The motherboard is a beauty as it performs on top of its class in distributing power and providing connections for memory and graphic devices. The ram of choice is Corsair Dominator 2x16 GB 3600mhz as it's a beautiful design with top-of-the-line performance, which can increase in-game fps. The CPU, Intel Core i9-12900K, is extraordinary. The new 12th gen (Alder Lake) is ready for action and performance. This processing chip will unlock all PC capabilities. It can be used for heavy design work, heavy workloads, video rendering, clean gaming, and more. It's literally one, if not the, fastest processor on the market as of now. This will help me, as a freshman at SJSU, to work on assignments, projects, studies, and essentially anything with the amount of power and accessibility brought to the table by the CPU and the PC combination. This will be a major upgrade to the Dell i5 laptop that I own. There are stutters and lags on the laptop that I own. It can game, but it's more of a bluff as it's horrible. It does work fine but performs badly under medium and heavy workloads. Something faster with more components will unlock more activities for me. I learned photoshop when preparing for this project. It's something that I liked and would love to continue doing. This setup up will unlock and allow me to run platforms and applications at great performance. This is a piece of technology that can change lives, and it will impact mine for the better.
