I just got a custom PC at my local flea market, but I don't know if it's actually built or not. Before I talk about anything else, I need to tell you that I am new to computers and never worked with one before, so I might be bad. I have taken some pictures of the computer and the bag of wires that came with it. I really don't know if everything is there or if something is missing. Even though this machine looks super fancy like a high-end PC, things change fast in tech, so I can't say for sure how good it is right now. So I am asking anyone here to help me figure out what parts are included and give some advice on fixing or running this thing. My 13-year-old son loves playing Xbox and always wanted his own PC. His birthday is coming up soon and I would really like to get this computer working so he can play for his party. Thank you for your time and joining the forum. https://imgur.com/a/Dpw4IlZ

What are the specs if I tell you what they all are? Do you know why the GPU isn't getting power? How much did you pay for this? The Molex plug on the board looks old. This is probably an ancient motherboard: https://www.asus.com/us/supportonly/cros...knowledge/

I don't know about the settings or what kind of graphics card you need. It's not plugged in, even though I checked if that power cable is attached. I bought this thing for eight hundred dollars.

So cool to see your new name, man. You really thought hard about it.
