I also have a tv on the other side of the pc with a roku express player and my Xbox one behind it here’s the link to my pc https://www.amazon.com/STGAubron-Desktop-Computer-Bluetooth-Keyboard/dp/B0BK539D4V/ref=mp_s_a_1_3_maf_1?adgrpid=58949996827&hvadid=675835242410&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9020052&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=7148758667610609437&hvtargid=kwd-295130565020&hydadcr=20107_13388448&keywords=400+dollar+gaming+pc&qid=1696732282&sr=8-3

Congrats! Looks awesome. What needs to be improved?
Looks like you’re all hooked up! Maybe look into another desk for some more room to have while gaming. Looks great my friend! Better than I had when I was your age!
Comfort is important so I would first look into how to get setup where you can easily reach the keyboard and mouse while having the monitor in front of you in a way you don’t have to strain your neck
This would be my main priority
Apart from that, one nice accessory to have on my opinion is a large table mat and some nice headphones
Finally, a controller for controller games (like darksouls, fighting games, side scrollers, platformers, classic games etc) is nice to have – for example the xbox core controller
Looks great! Not a ton I’d change. Great first build!
Perhaps a small desk lamp clamped somewhere, to help with ambient light while you’re looking at the screen when it’s dark?
Maybe a bigger desk, you can get your parents or yourself to look on Facebook marketplace, they have cheap desks!
Is it really an i7-4770?? Return that shit immediately, you’ve been had. That processor is 10 years old.
Where are all these 13 year olds coming from
Looks like you could use a new desk.
I really hope youre gaming in proper light condition cuz affecting your eyes also leads to expensive eye care.
Find a theme, make it work, lets say orange black sports car theme, or halo theme. Change the lighting to fit it, some toys, wallpapers, decorations and plants to make it pop.
The RGB is programmable right? I recommend choosing colors to shine, and not having all the random colors haha. That’s more of a default settings to show to buyers that it’s RGB afaik
Looks good man! If I were you, save up for a year or two and get yourself a nice monitor. What you have right now is more than enough to enjoy some gaming
Looks better than I had ar your age (if i had a setup at all)
If I were you I’d move the PC to the ground (on a little platform ofcourse, not ditectly on the ground).
But I’m gonna assume you like to have the PC visable on the desk like most people here, in which case I’d rotate it 90°, move it to the far right, and have more space for the peripherals. Move the monitor further back, and get a nice big deskmat.
And like some already suggested, a desk lamp, you might not notice it now, but it’s much better for your eyes in the long run.
Didn’t know anybody actually buys those amazon PCs.
The fans on the bottom of the case look like they’re upside down. They seem to be exhausting, and should be intaking air from that location.
looks great man! wish i had this setup when I was 13 – make sure you don’t play on max brightness w all lights off in the room, can cause some eye strain…
I think instead of thinking about how to improve it you should spend that time enjoying it!
what games do you play?
You got this for your birthday at 13 and you want to improve it already? Just enjoy it and don’t act spoiled. Congrats have fun be grateful
I know you love looking at your pcs rgb 🌈but consider putting it on the floor and free up some desk space .. arrange everything symetrical .. to the monitor in the middle .. and rise the monitor to eyelevel 😁☺️ finaly let the pc shine in your fav single color .. less is more
Maybe try to get further away from the monitor, because of ergonomics.
