Hello,

I want to know on how I can take good care of my new prebuilt gaming pc. How can I get as much life out of it as possible? it has a gtx 1080, i7 6700K (not going to overclock), 5oogb samsung 850 evo ssd, 4 of these: 8gb ADATA XPG Z1 ddr4-3000 RAM, the cooler master V8 GTS CPU cooler (VERY LOUD!!), Gigabyte G.1 Sniper Z170 Motherboard, 800 Watt PSU (not sure on the brand, sorry, I got it as a gift and I am reading this off of the specs list that came with it), and a wireless network card.

So how can I take good care of this system? Thanks for any info.

Honestly, especially if it is pricey for your family which it most likely is, don't go around fishy sites or install pirated games. Also make sure you keep a anti-virus in tact, but you should be fine with the standard Windows Defender.
I Recommend downloading speccy (https://www.piriform.com/speccy) to check over your Tempetures. This can be very important to make sure your parts last.
The GTX 1080 should be fine under 85C Maximum. For your CPU, try to keep it under 80C. Keep your SSD Under 70C. Note this is mostly under heavier load.
