Tomorrow, my niece turns three! So, like any good uncle would, decided it was time to initiate her into the fold and built her this “Elsa”-themed rig for her birthday.
Is it overkill? You bet! Will she use it? Who knows! But hopefully all the colored lights, view into the computer, and princess-y things will grab her attention, draw out her inner geek, and we’ll be gaming together in no time!

Haha, this is really cool man. Probably a bit too young to be pc gaming (In a year maybe?) My kid started playing switch at 3, and she can play alone now. PC has been harder with mouse and keyboard.
Do the parents know their 3 year old is getting a whole ass computer?
what are the specs?
That keyboard is weird. NGL.
Man. How much screen time does the kiddo get a day?
Cause 3-year-olds should definitely need more screen time, not problematic whatsoever
lol weird flex. Take the three year old to the zoo or something
How’s the keyboard and mouse? I saw it at a local retailer and want to get it for my girlfriend who barely games so the price point was ideal
This sub is so goofy
Everyone in my office is using that keyboard and I hate it.
I was expecting ELSA GPU instead of MSI GPU, ELSA motherboard instead of ( I think that’s an asus or ASRock mobo) and ELSA gaming monitor instead of an AOC one
Pink is fine, but how is it *Elsa* themed, beyond the wallpaper? Elsa’s skin/cheek color?
My daughter is 7 I got her a laptop with a 3050 and people made fun of me . This man giving a whole ass pc to a 3 year old and we good?
Just an observation – wouldn’t an Elsa build be technically in white and blue tones?
Can she even work a pc at 3 years old? My niece certainly couldn’t.
THREE?!
aint no 3 year old playing PC games.
Are you accepting applications for nephews at this time?
Congrats, you built a door stop for internet points. This thing will never get used.
Congratulations, but i don’t think any 3yo child has mental capacity to understand what computer even is. Let alone how to use it.
Even when she’ll be 6 years old, it is still very questionable.
Nice gift for her father though, lmfao.
By the time she’d actually use the computer for something meaningful, it’ll be outdated. Money well spent!
I feel bad for the kid, ngl.
OP needed any reason to build a PC again, lmao
those key caps are comin off. im excited for the day my son no longer realizes he can take my keys and hide them in the dryer
Dawg I didn’t get a computer until I was 17
3 years old is clearly too young to have a pc gamer. Or you should limit the time to 30 minute a day something like that.
For now, she’ll just stare at the RGB and return to play with toys. She”l just treat it like a lamp, like my sister once did when she saw my first PC’s RGB fan when she was 3. An “Air Lamp” like she said.
When she grows a little more, she’ll probably use it either to view movies in a few years (Like me at 6 watching Phineas and Ferb in my grandma’s computer with my best friends, good memories). Gaming won’t be easy on that thing at that time.
Maybe when she’s 8/9 years old (And once that CPU gets to the level of an i7-6700 by today’s standards) you can gift her a GPU and show her how to game. She’ll have a much better beginning than me, who just had an i3-2100 with integrated graphics running Need for Speed 2 at 480P.
When I was 10 I could consider myself lucky when I was allowed to choose a bar of chocolate from the supermarket … What has this world become
I think parents give their kids phones at too young of ages. This is something else entirely.
I feel like a 3 year old shouldnt be allowed to use a pc… but still nice build.
THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES
for reference, she’s 2 years away from attending school to learn her ABCs, but will fully understand how operate a PC lol
That’s insane, 3 years old?! She gone be fucked in the head by 11 I guarantee.
Why?
