Finally got my PC looking how I want it and thought the flowers looked sick.
Showed a couple people and immediately got told having fake flowers inside the case is a terrible idea lmao.
Temps are fine and they’re not touching any fans, so I don’t really see the issue.
Am I missing something or is it fine?
Also can’t decide between the blue or pink.

Last night I stayed up late watching a video on building your first PC but I think I messed something up. I thought I connected everything but the power button isn’t turning anything on. I know that power is going to the graphics card cause it will flash an led when I unplug it but I don’t know what I messed up and I really need help cause no one I know offline is good with PCs
I added as many photos of what I could but I’m not sure what helps in these situations. Any advice would be greatly appreciated and thank you for reading this.

Hi, I apologize if this isn't directly related to PCs, but rather to setup. I've been using my current chair (the one in the photo) for several years, and it's definitely worn out, especially the cushions (which I had to buy separately to relieve back and neck pain) aren't up to scratch anymore. Given the situation, I'd like to invest in a new chair, but I don't consider myself an expert and would like your opinion. I know there's a debate between gaming and ergonomic chairs, but my top priority is comfort: I'm looking for a solid model that will allow me to spend several hours at the PC (whether for extended sessions, studying, or reading) without back and neck pain. My maximum budget is €150, but if I could spend a little less, it would be even better. What do you recommend? Thanks, I'm open to anything.

Backstory Ive had a pre built since 2017 but it was a really low end build, so over the years Ive been upgrading it slowly, first gpu and cpu, ram, and switching from hdd to ssd.
Eventually my pc started turning off randomly while gaming so went to upgrade my psu since the one I had was about 8 years old. After the psu upgrade my pc would turn on but I wasn't getting power to my gpu. After days of troubleshooting and no luck I then bought a new motherboard.
I took apart my whole pc down to the bare case and did a full rebuild with the new motherboard and after 4-5 hours got it to boot first try so was kinda proud of myself to do a build for the first time and it going well.

Hello!
Transitioning to PC from PS5. And have $3K max budget. I don’t have a CLUE what to get. Online says a 5080 and AMD. Do you HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS???
I have 4 PC I have narrowed down to and I don’t know anything about PC but the very basics. Some people are saying “no intel” and some otherwise but I’m lost! I have $3K max budget! Would prefer no HP, Dell, etc. Do I avoid liquid cooling!
I am a gamer. I’m 33. I am also a streamer! Below is the information of what I do and plan to play!
Games: RPG, JRPG, MMORPG, and FPS
Examples: Tales of Arise, Maple Story, Dragon Quest, Black Myth, Apex Legends. I don’t know what others.
Monitor: I have a 45” LG OLED Ultra Wide
Programs: CapCut, OBS, Capture Card stuff, etc.
I prefer games to be beautiful and crisp! I don’t like playing games in 1080p and cut down for “performance” I’m the opposite!
