Although this chapter in Japan has finished, I promise much more to come, not only with builds but other things too ;), thank you all so much for the support this far.
Hey man, your vids are great and they have inspired me to build 2 budget builds of my own, one with dual x5450 and a 7870 with 24gb of ddr2 ram (180 CAD) and another one with a qx9775 and a 750ti (240). Both run great! Keep up the great vids man!!!!
Man, I gotta say, great video. Goodluck with your next chapter in life and good job on being able to move forward in life. Also I sense collabs with GreenHamGaming and other austrailian tech youtubers incoming maybe. Keep up the amazing work!
Brian, you are an absolute genius when it comes to choosing the right song for each video. Quality content paired with awesome intros; I am astonished by how amazing your channel is. You deserve both more views and more subscribers.
I've just found this channel and i have to say : " Your channel is very helpful " . I live in a poor country so my family also not rich . But i have a passion with pc hardware . Since I was 18 , I've did a lot of job just to buy hardware . So , i can understand how hard to build a pc case when don't have a lot of money :) THANKYOU FOR YOUR VIDEO , HOPE YOU WILL MAKE MORE :)
Absolutely loving your videos man, value builds don't get nearly enough attention on TH-cam. Keep it up, excited to see how your channel grows, and good luck with the move.
Bless you mate. Good to see you having good times with your son! Its heart breaking that you have to leave him behind. I pray you get lots of opportunities to see him as often as you can! Good PC build as well! Cant say I am a fan of the clear tape cable management but that is my OCD preferences kicking in :) Looking forward to the next Aus build!
Really like this channel. I will continue to look forward to great videos from you Brian. I hope you find peace and sanity back home. Good luck with the move Bro.
Taste in used components = Top Tier Thrift Level = 99 Production Quality = Good Taste in music = Absolute Trash fire I will personally mail you a foley library with royalty free music if you change that shit up Seriously though you're doing gods work keep it up mate
Love the video as always, Brian. I also liked you having your boy in the video. It feels like you are a very loving dad, from previous videos that i had gathered that from. I hope that fate and circumstance will make things better, so you and him will have a bit of a life together, as i can tell that he loves his dad very much. All my hopes, man. Keep up the good content, and keep that chin up. You inspire a lot of us - by months end, i'll have a $200 CAD/AUS build that will be my own 'Hot Used Build' that i'm going to use as my console killer/substitute.
Thanks man, yeah he is such a gorgeous little thing, we have an unbreakable bond, it has been tough on me recently, but I have to soldier on, there is just no other option. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the build.
This is amazing. I remember i saw your video about modding LGA 771 and i did that successfully, believe me i got the processor for $25 and now im using it with GTX 960, amazing performance. Thankyou.
your production of these videos gets better and better! I cant reiterate to keep pushing these videos out....also... "don't live like an ivy vine... plant some roots so you can stand on your own" now i just have to do the same thing
I know this is a fairly old build , I think the song really adds to the emotion of the video, and with that being your last pc in Japan and last time seeing your son, it will always be my favourite video.
Hey Brian, I love these old but good setups. I have one myself, a MSI P67A-GD55 mobo with an i5 2500K at 4.2 Ghz. Running Oculus Rift butter smooth with an overclocked GTX 970 and 16Gb of DDR3 1800Mhz Ram. I built this computer in 2010 and apart from the GPU and RAM, everything is still the same! I have recently won an action on eBay for an i7 2600K for AU$150, so a nice little upgrade to improve my video rendering times and multi tasking (I am hoping to OC it to at least 4.5 Ghz). Next to come will be a GTX 1070, possibly Zotac Extreme (I love the chuncky look). I'll wait for black Friday for a good deal... Your videos rock, keep it up mate! Cheers, Allan.
Seriously, please do a video about the spray cleaner you use on the motherboards, maybe even do a build with less fast forward and music; and actually walk us through some of that cleaning process. That would be great, thanks!
at 6:55 , Glad you took my advice and didnt cut the heat pipes this time brother! BTW, great quality and structure over all on the video mate! especially doing it in a Hotel in Japan!! PS: Im so sorry that you cant be with your son brother...hurts me...I also have children and they mean the world to me...
Keep up the great work man, huge fan as I love seeing the cheaper stuff perform so well! Also they are in a price bracket that is actually obtainable to me which is even better :D lol.... anyway like I said, im a huge fan and keep up the awesome videos
I always enjoy your so called trash builds.That is why I watch,your knowledge just on parts alone is impressive. Last part of that video broke my heart.Good Luck Brian and I hope you don't have to go to long with out seeing that little darling,
brain thank you so much for what you do. my heart breaks for you having to leave your son. your videos inspired me to chase my hobby of building used pc's and turn it into a career path. thanks to the inspiration I get from watching you, I now no longer work a terrible retail job, I have achieved a goal in my life of doing what I love for a living. I'm now working with, repairing, and building used tech for a living. so once again thank you so much brian. I wish you all the best and hope that you can find what you're looking for back in Australia.
hey! I have the Xeon X3470 as well. But still running on stock clock. Manage to get a AIO CPU cooler from a friend. Can't wait to OC! I wonder how high it could go. Hmmm...
That's why I subscribed to this channel to see videos like this and not like that flood the web with digital build and absurd recommendations. Great video. Sorry for my bad English.
Great video, man. Good luck with your future endeavors and I hope things look up for you! Cant wait for Hot Used Setups though, if that's still on the docket :) Just dropped a Xeon x5687 into the Z400 build and its awesome. Definitely a processor to look into if you already have (or manage to get for cheap) a 1366 x58 board. Otherwise, the OEM HP boards on ebay are cheap enough, but not really able to OC.
Save yourself first, and as I've said before, time will help you redeem and get your payback. Be patient. Also, I'd say keep those used builds coming, along with the mix used/new ones. They're sick as always.
Good stuff Brian. Still shining Brother... I also love the Xeon's are so epic in price atm. I got me a 2670 at 2.8. Want it to last awhile but its playing everything so great and benching still impressive numbers also with 2 EVGA 780 Classifieds. Yea got that 2670 at 50 dollars and the X79 for free but had to get it referb. IDC its been tested and works great. CHEERS!!!!!
The Outlet Shop! I bought levi's pants there for 30$ each buy 2 take 1, amazing deal. Also bought some shirts for 10 bucks with the same buy 2 take 1 deal ^_^. Also as a tourist i was Tax free. The lego shop is just for kids, its barebones... I liked this PC build, it definitely fits my computing and gaming needs, i can definitely say this is your best budget build... Good luck in your future!
I built my rig for $600 and you almost tripled the cpu score as well as the gpu score on firestrike. MSI 970 Gaming Mobo AMD fx 8320 @ 4.00 / Hyper 212X Twin Frozr II GTX 580 @ 900 mhz 4/4 gb quad channel DDR3 1600 mhz ram Crucial 256 gb SSD DeepCool Tesseract Case (removed items that I already had) Really good video by the way. Love your content.
Bryan, love the build. Do you always sell your builds? What usually happens after you finish benching and filming? Also, your son is a sweetheart! Love him!
0:44 Watch out Bryan! Anyway, that's a real great price to performance computer! There's another person who does this with really old computers, but it's boring since all the computers perform so bad, but wow, great benchmarks on this PC. It ironically performs way better than my $420 computer. Granted, some of the parts are older and used, but I wasn't expecting that.
Bryan, I'm an Asian who currently study in Sydney. Your mechanical keyboard video brought me here. I've always enjoyed your personal experiences, down-to-earth attitude and multi-cultural background. You have no idea what your videos have brought to me. The joker drama is a bit sad, but just don't pay attention to it. It's not worth it. Very best wishes to your new life, Keep up!
Hi sir, it's good you're spending good times with your son I hope he comes soon with you to Sydney and live with you. I have a question for you can you help me please, a week ago or so I found a motherboard with 4 gig memory ram DDR2 with CPU Core2 quad ,so my point is what kind of chemicals are you using to clean up your motherboard, I am from Sydney as well so you point me what kind of chemicals exactly the name we are familiar to see at the shop. Thanks
Man, that must be really tough to be going through. Thankfully there are things like Skype etc, you can always have a chat with him and be in his life in some capacity.(this is if his mother allows) Good luck B.
Bringing it back with another used parts PC build and even sneaking the "YES" back into the intro. I couldn't help but yell "GET REKT!" at the screen from 4:05 to 4:35...
very awesome looking computer. to me it doesn't really matter new used I think it's a good idea if you can get a really good deal and for what you paid you got a killer deal good job
whilst i can appreciate your situation I must say that the japan factor has a charm about it i cannot explain. hopefully you can recreate this in your new setup in aussieland. dont change your style though
Really unfortunate having to leave a 4 year old son. I couldn't imagine leaving my daughter let alone leaving the country. That must have been very difficult. I hope you get in a better place mentally and are able to spend more time with your son in the future. You only get one life and he will only have one father. Best of luck.
Although this chapter in Japan has finished, I promise much more to come, not only with builds but other things too ;), thank you all so much for the support this far.
count on me to watch the shit my bro I love your channel

Also very sorry about you having to leave your son, hopefully you'll get to spend some more time with him in the future
Tech City How do you find deals like that? I live in Sydney and I can't find any good value parts.
Man, I gotta say, great video. Goodluck with your next chapter in life and good job on being able to move forward in life. Also I sense collabs with GreenHamGaming and other austrailian tech youtubers incoming maybe. Keep up the amazing work!
Whats not to like at $380 cheap as chips, good job at recycling old parts.
Best wishes! I hope you get to see your boy soon. He's a real sweetheart.
Brian, you are an absolute genius when it comes to choosing the right song for each video. Quality content paired with awesome intros; I am astonished by how amazing your channel is. You deserve both more views and more subscribers.

Man, you're such a bro giving your friend a really cool PC. Hope your trip outside of Japan is a safe and enjoyable one!
LOL on the bi-line about cutting heat pipes! Also, liked the crazy dance moves in the monitor reflection at around 7:30!
Bless you mate. Good to see you having good times with your son! Its heart breaking that you have to leave him behind. I pray you get lots of opportunities to see him as often as you can! Good PC build as well! Cant say I am a fan of the clear tape cable management but that is my OCD preferences kicking in :) Looking forward to the next Aus build!

your production of these videos gets better and better! I cant reiterate to keep pushing these videos out....also... "don't live like an ivy vine... plant some roots so you can stand on your own" now i just have to do the same thing
I really do hope things get settle down for you. you really deserve the best.
I know this is a fairly old build , I think the song really adds to the emotion of the video, and with that being your last pc in Japan and last time seeing your son, it will always be my favourite video.

Seriously, please do a video about the spray cleaner you use on the motherboards, maybe even do a build with less fast forward and music; and actually walk us through some of that cleaning process. That would be great, thanks!
He's already done that.
Kenneth Saul Good idea
SrSheepdog He did a video about the spray? Would happen to remember the title? Thanks!
I think the title is "cleanse your soul" or something like that.
Kenneth Saul PC PARTS COLLECTION - How I cleanse. something along those lines
Intro song reminded me of the TH-cam glory days.
"He took my job as well" "hes really a good friend
I passed my job onto him, came out little bit weird when you look at it that way lol.
Tech yes city intro?Dafaq?
Got me right in the feels with that card at the end, brother.
You must be one rad dad. Keep your head up man, I can't wait for this channel to grow more.
at 6:55 , Glad you took my advice and didnt cut the heat pipes this time brother! BTW, great quality and structure over all on the video mate! especially doing it in a Hotel in Japan!! PS: Im so sorry that you cant be with your son brother...hurts me...I also have children and they mean the world to me...

Keep these build coming there really cool.
Sick build dude. Hope to see more content soon. Your edits are on point
That message at the end sent me chills
Great vid, with great sentimental value, hope everything is going well in Aus
good for you man hope move in back goes well
I always enjoy your so called trash builds.That is why I watch,your knowledge just on parts alone is impressive.
Last part of that video broke my heart.Good Luck Brian and I hope you don't have to go to long with out seeing that little darling,
Is that a Scythe Shuriken? Love that cooler! Good for mini itx and AMD not so much for OC Xeon's! And holy crap that ending gave me the feels.
Yeah I think that was it!

brain thank you so much for what you do. my heart breaks for you having to leave your son. your videos inspired me to chase my hobby of building used pc's and turn it into a career path. thanks to the inspiration I get from watching you, I now no longer work a terrible retail job, I have achieved a goal in my life of doing what I love for a living.

hey! I have the Xeon X3470 as well. But still running on stock clock. Manage to get a AIO CPU cooler from a friend. Can't wait to OC! I wonder how high it could go. Hmmm...
you used the tech YES city intro, lmao, LOVE IT
That's why I subscribed to this channel to see videos like this and not like that flood the web with digital build and absurd recommendations.
Great video.
Sorry for my bad English.
Love the sing choice in the beginning!
Great video, man. Good luck with your future endeavors and I hope things look up for you!

That intro took me down memory lane to a game i used to play on the ps2, it was mx unleashed I believe. God that was so long ago
Props for using a Centurion 5 case. Good luck with your further adventures.
YAYAYAYA :D

Hi sir, it's good you're spending good times with your son I hope he comes soon with you to Sydney and live with you.

John borg Brake cleaner fluid
Actually, he explains what he uses to clean parts in a video, but i can't remember it. If somebody could post the link, it would be very helpful.
John borg I believe it was crc 556
John borg also if you just search clean tech yes city you will get a couple video results.
I thought Brian lived in the Gold Coast.
awesome build. but the best part was you dancing with your son :)
great build i myself planning to do a old part build soon :)
Man, that must be really tough to be going through. Thankfully there are things like Skype etc, you can always have a chat with him and be in his life in some capacity.(this is if his mother allows) Good luck B.
Right in the feels man :(
This one came out amazingly. I guess new + used is the way to go for good value.
thanks man I wanted to build a cheap system but was unsure about the budget.
Bringing it back with another used parts PC build and even sneaking the "YES" back into the intro.
I couldn't help but yell "GET REKT!" at the screen from 4:05 to 4:35...
I liked this video.
Your son is so adorable!
I love the introduction Headstrong By Trapt. :D
fight the good fight brother
very awesome looking computer. to me it doesn't really matter new used I think it's a good idea if you can get a really good deal and for what you paid you got a killer deal good job
I saw the title and thought this was gonna be the last pc build EVER. Thank Jeebus its not
dang....that's such a good value!
whilst i can appreciate your situation I must say that the japan factor has a charm about it i cannot explain. hopefully you can recreate this in your new setup in aussieland. dont change your style though
2:12 that dancing doe lmao
Really unfortunate having to leave a 4 year old son. I couldn't imagine leaving my daughter let alone leaving the country. That must have been very difficult. I hope you get in a better place mentally and are able to spend more time with your son in the future. You only get one life and he will only have one father. Best of luck.
That clip with his son made me like this video
I like the song choice
That xeon is awesome
Nice video, your little boy is so cute!
Eyyy good music, headstrong
That intro song was so damn nice!
