Aadit has been into Play Station gaming for almost 5 years now. At a young age, he use to play games on his Play Station with his elder brother and eventually became fond of it.
3 years back he requested his father to get him a gaming PC, but his father denied it. Aadit, not giving up on his dream told his father that he will build his own set-up within 3 years. Witnessing his commitment and passion towards gaming, his father decided to help him.
With thorough research on YouTube and following some channels like- Linus Tech Tips, Tech Source, Setup Wars, and Setup Upgrades, Aadit made a list of parts and extensions he needed to create the entire setup for gaming.
His father helped him gather all the spare parts from Nehru Place market of New Delhi, which is popular for electronic goods. Not only this but his father further gave him a tech support person who helped him to assemble his gaming setup.
How much time does Aadit take to get this gaming setup ready?
It took almost 3 years to convenience his father and for installation, it took him almost 4 days of hard work. He almost spends around 2 lakh to 2.5 Lakh to completely set up the entire gaming ecosystem.
