Member-only story
I’ve been using Ubuntu and Windows dual-booted for years now. It was because of a few awesome classmates and mentors in college that I got interested in Linux. Since then, I’ve explored various ways of configuring this. And there are many small blogs related to this on my personal blog — mrsauravsahu.tech/blog. Now let’s discuss how I’ve setup my machine. From hardware to software.
Note: Throughout this blog, there are terms that could interest you, so I’ve marked them with inline code-blocks. 😉
Hardware
Back in 2018 I built my first machine. It was a great exercise, and took me a while to see what is compatible with what other hardware components. But I remember using sites like pcpartpicker to help me make sure parts worked with each other. I bought my PC case online as I didn't want to carry it from the market. 😂
I bought the rest of the components from the famous SP Road in Bangalore, trying to haggle my way through. Went there with a couple of my friends as we were all building PCs. So, here’s my hardware breakdown.
2018 PC Build Parts list
I’ve tried to create a list here which mostly matches my parts. Few of them aren’t available anymore, so I’ve tried to give it an upgrade. Please note these are affiliate links and you buying from here…
