he could, i know a guy who just turned 15 yesterday, he knows more than I do about computers and I can build a computer. (i am 18)
If they are a computer boff and enjoy messing around with computers and stuff then yes but I wouldn't advise it...I would say no.. thats my opinion

Hello and welcome to Techspot.
Yes, sure you can build a system at 14.
It isn`t that hard really.
Just take your time, and I`m sure it`ll be just fine. Maybe get someone who`s already built a few systems to give you a hand.
Take a look at How to build a pc.
Hope this helps.

Perhaps you would like to try "Building a PC for Beginners". It's a book I wrote. Also I have a websitewww.monkeyseemonkeydobooks.com
that has free info from the book. Wish you the best.

Yes, it is definitely possible to build a PC at 14
This must be true as i have done it and the PC works (did i mention that my arm was in a sling at the time)...... This was about a month or 2 ago and i'm 14 at the moment.
Just dont go out and buy any old compatible components, spend a LOT of time doing research...boring i know, but i did it.
The hardest thing about doing it at our age is budget (i'm not as rich as i'd like to be.... but then again, who is?), you can get a decent(ish) PC for about £350, if (you overclock it a lot...) you don't need to run Doom3 at full reseloution and so on, but it would be running linux... (if you need windows get win98SE cheap)
Anyway - Good luck
