Each year our students pick out computer parts that will all work together to build a complete gaming system. The scope of the project is to be able to find all the computer parts that will work together, be able to successfully install all the parts, and finally load an operating system that will work on the computer. Each student specs out their own computer for a set budget. Then it is up to the class to vote on the best computer. The winning computer is purchased and built. All the computers are tested on the PassMark Performance Test Benchmark found at https://www.passmark.com/products/performancetest/index.php. The current Performance Test we used is version 11.0. The scores for the years are listed below:
