Building a new PC table for my daughters new PC

[Remodeling Maidiac]

I'm not much for fine trim carpentry but this should turn out nice.
We repurposed the frame of a really old table but the top was shot.

Your daughter is getting/got a new PC? Now is an absolutely terrible time for that! CPUs and GPUs are low stock and horribly overpriced at the moment.

Will it be able to handle the weight of one of those "standing desk" units? After using one for over two years, I highly recommend them.

I was near a Microcenter when I lived in Marietta, GA. Everything I've read to this point has been that getting a video card at MSRP right now is nothing but pure luck. Maybe an older model (more than 1 gen old), but the current and immediately previous gen cards have all been incredibly low on stock due to a combination of silicon supply problems, cryptocurrency mining, and scalpers. As an example, going to the Microcenter website for their Marietta store, there are 12 video cards in stock. There's an RX570 for $350. There's a couple of GT 1030s for about $100. There's an RTX 5000 listed at $2300. Nothing from the RTX 3000 series, nothing from the RX 6000 series.

If you got a current or even last gen card at MSRP, congrats! You won.

They get between 6 and 10 cards everyday. People line up every night to get them. We had a pc built.

By the way, how do you like that Rigid cordless nailer?
