About

The Goal

Buying, building, and servicing any kind of computer can be tricky these days. There are so many options out there in the world, but not all of them would be a great fit. Short of becoming a professional, how can you be confident in your decision-making?At PC Monster, the goal is to provide that confidence while delivering the best and most personalized experience possible. Whether you are looking for a fancy new rig (that's nerd-speak for powerful computer), your aging desktop is a little slow, or your laptop with all the family photos on it has moved onto its next life, PC Monster is here for you!

The Owner

Hello there! 👋 My name is Ethan Schneider, owner of PC Monster Ltd. Co. I was born in the Green Bay, WI area in 1997 to two wonderful parents, and I now live in the Appleton area with my lovely wife, Morgan. By day, I work for Menasha Corporation in Neenah, WI as an IT Service Desk Analyst, where I assist our end-users with a wide variety of technological issues surrounding hardware, software, networking, security, and more. I have been working in that role since February of 2021.I have couple of accomplishments in the IT field underneath my belt, those being a CompTIA A+ certification that I received in March of 2023, and earning a Computer Support Specialist degree from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, or NWTC, in 2021.

The Builds

My journey into building PCs started in 2019 when I decided that I wanted to play games on my run-of-the-mill HP ENVY desktop that I had purchased for music production a couple of years prior. I wouldn’t have been able to play much without giving it a little extra juice, and thankfully, the computer had room inside of it for expansion. So, I hopped online and shopped around.Being somewhat strapped for cash at the time, I bought myself a brand new XFX Radeon RX 550 2GB graphics card for just under $100 and slapped that bad boy in there. It certainly was not the most impressive machine one had ever seen… but it was my machine, and I was proud of it.Now, after a handful of years, many upgrades, some long troubleshooting sessions, and a ton of dedication, I have built myself a magnificent machine comprised of some pretty powerful components (first 3 pictures). It is a BEAST, and I am very happy with it!On top of that, I've built a couple more machines that you will also see pictures of below. Thank you for checking them out!
