We accidentally had themed recommendations this week! Welcome to DIY with Mel and Kelly! Mel builds a computer while Kelly finds a site to build EVERYTHING!
Mel’s Recommendation:
Website: Newegg.com
- A Tech Superstore that will help you find all of your pc building needs.
- Many products have unboxing videos that give you a full tour of the product so you can get a close up view before you buy.
- They also are very well known for great customer service.
- A lot of the customer reviews are left by very tech savvy folks who describe any problems they had with the install.
Website: TomsHardware.com
- Don’t know which video card to buy, or which processor is the best bang for your buck? Start here.
- If your really stumped take a look at the forums where a lot of very knowledgeable people tend to hang out.
Kelly’s Recommendation:
Website: Instructables.com
- Full of tons of cool instructions or “ibles” that help you make pretty much anything you can think of.
- Awesome topics include Cosplay, Steampunk, Halloween Decorations, Cooking, and 3D Printing.
- They also have tons of contests for the best instructable in a given category.
- Go check it out and try your hand at “building” something cool!
- Also if any one wants to make this Dragon Cake and send it to Mel…..
Social Media Recommendations:
Mel: NeweggTv on YouTube: lots of videos about products plus more current event geek type news.
Kelly: 5Facts We Learned from the Internet is a fun YouTube show by Annie Colbert and Matt Silverman. It has frequent visits by some awesome guests like Wil Wheaton and Grover!
