Welp, i mean, i guess screwing over others to get ahead is the prime motto of milionaires and large companies, so it's only natural that the people struggling because they're being screwed over would do the same. It's a damn shame, but i can understand why people would get into that mentality. Still a bad person in my eyes if you do it tough.

Your line about "poverty tends to be like that" really hits me. I'm from the same boat too. All of my friends are either middle or upper class. They always remark how weird I am with money. It's not that I don't want to spend time with them in fancy restaurants or on vacation trips, it's that I really have to make sure whatever money I make goes to savings (what little there is). There's no inheritance money, no trust fund, no estate. You're doing an awesome work helping out your customers.
I lived a few years of my childhood around and below the poverty line, but my family inherited some houses a few years ago that we could sell so we're far above the poverty line now. But I still am very cautious of my money, because when the time comes for me to get fully independent I don't want to instantly ruin myself financially.
I immediatly subscribed to you after saw this video. Indeed you are the greatest technician that's ever lived. Here in Korea most of computer shops always profit-focused and cheating to their customers (mainly repair cost and swapping lower grade parts), and I also do computer shops and I am doing as honest as I can. I don't make profit enough but I don't care. Sometimes other computer shops attack me about being honest. It's really fortunate for Salem folks having honest computer shop. Bless you! (Sorry my English bad for not my first language)
Your English is better than most native speakers! Thank you so much for the donation, and for what you do for your community. Our industry is global, and we all have good shops and bad shops, I'm proud to know you're a good shop and you watch my channel. There's nothing bad shops hate more than a good shop that calls them out on their dishonesty. Please continue fighting for your customer, but also make sure to take care of yourself and find a way to pay the bills! Thanks again.
My family lucked out on our purchase for a PC, it does have it's issues but it works and that's all that really matters for the person that got it. Though, they do have me to carefully look through and make sure nothing shady comes out.
@@Yasin5791-d7u Yeah but there's a lot less potential to get ripped off with getting something that doesn't work. FB Marketplace can be OK for some things. A computer is one of the riskiest things to buy from FB Marketplace, there is so much scam potential.
A video that included lessons in IT support, moral fortitude and philanthropy, oh and now I know that rats can't burp, what more could I ask for from a video? You truly are the 'greatest content creator that ever lived'...
"RTX 2060 R5 3600 128GB nvme Payed 1800$ in appril 2020 so im sellinh 4 1700$ firm no lowballs i knoe what i hace" -The most intelligent facebook marketplace seller
worse is that they think marketplace is the site you go through if you want to dispose e-waste. like broken or not working parts tagged as fair, untested
The delusion is real, they don't even realize you can build a brand new top of the line computer for that money that outperforms theirs in everything by a good margin
Had the pleasure of interacting with a seller who thinks him selling is several years old 1660 super at 180$ is already a loss for him since he bought it for 220$. That's how it works buster, you can't use something for 3 years and expect it to be worth the same. His ad is still up for months now 😂.
@@loowick4074 the funniest thing Is that the more time passes, the more that GPU will lose value. So if he won't sell It at an acceptable price, he probably will lose 50$ in value in only ~1 year.
Thanks guys. You make great content and have the right moral fibre. As a chartered IT professional I pay it back by helping friends, family, neighbours etc. FB marketplace is full of scammers with no morals unfortunately...
These long forms have the best life lesson endings that been missing since 90’s sitcom episodes. Thanks for filling the void in humanity Andy and being a good dude.
Bravo to you for taking care of that kid and hopefully having him learn a valuable lesson. Honestly though it would have been even cooler to have had him in the shop to teach him the basics on building / repairing - you never know where it might take him. Thanks for what you do.
Thank you! Unfortunately he lived quite far away and my schedule is so hectic running the shop it didn't work out, but that definitely would have been awesome. Thanks again, I really appreciate it!
I've just popped over my neighbours because they wanted a couple of bits listing on Ebay. I asked them to check how much postage is and they just don't know how to look at something online, they're the type of people who get conned on FB marketplace by shit sellers who have no soul. I repair laptops for a living and have spent literally thousands of hours over the last 20 years helping people for very little money (or none) get online with a sensible machine. I hate the con artists who sell you a 2nd gen i3 and a gt710 and tell you it's a gaming PC and I advise people to DO SOME RESEARCH before you part with your money!!!!!
You're doing what I literally want to do for a side business after college. Fixing computers the right way and helping those who need it. Thank you for existing on this hopeless Earth 🙇🙇🙇
Aside from the bro getting scammed, I'm sad the RX580 died, it's an absolute beast of a GPU and handles a lot of games decently well. I have had one for 4 years and will continue to love having one and using it till it does die or I upgrade to a much newer one
Boought one last year, was used for mining, wa hard getting drivers that worked, and also the original vbios, used in a system with an I3 1015, 16gigs of the cheapest ram in dual channel, I can play almost anything with decent performance in 1080p for people like me that because of being poor has a system made of old parts of some quality, and cheap new parts, the rx580 is gold. It will play anything without complaint, but generating massive amounts of noise and heat
Won't the iGPU in the 7600X outperform it, though? iIRC all 7000s are packing a pair of RDNA2 cores, which isn't a lot, but it should be compatible to a 7yo Vega card.
I used to have an RX480 8gb with a 9350 with 32 gb of ram (got all 4 sticks for $70, they messed up the price on Amazon.) When I did my total upgrade, I refurbed everything and gave it to my friend. It can still run games like hogwarts legacy and anything else she wants to play.
Did the same for my step brother, he went from a 4th gen i5 and a gtx 1060 3GB to a Ryzen 7 1700 and a RX 5600XT and then I overclocked the hell out of the CPU for good measure@@mattthemouse1

Good man with the fix and helping out someone in need. FB marketplace is definitely filled with not so nice people. But not every seller is out to scam people. I've been buying/selling PCs on marketplace for a while now and have learned to sort of tell what listings to avoid (bad pics, vague description, no items previously sold, low number of reviews, price too good to be true, communication is bad, etc.) But unfortunately people who are new to buying on marketplaces don't have that kind of knowledge so can fall into traps like your customer. Truly living up to your tagline. Keep it up!
Dude this is wholesome as shit, thanks for posting these kind of videos. Would love to start repairing PCs as well, if you have any tips how to get started small let me know 🙌
I DID enjoy this video. Yes, please put the Greatest Techno Song That Ever Lived on Spotify or even TH-cam so I can "save" it! You look just like your Daddy! Thanks for entering without all the recent angst. ❤ from Hawaii.
Thank you so much but I'm really just a normal dude. I'd like to think most decent people in my position would make the same decisions. I have considered a Patreon but the last thing I want is for people to donate and for me not to be able to provide content worthy of donations. I'm struggling to manage my time between the store and social media, so perhaps in the future.
You do exactly as I do. I give back to customers that get hosed either by a marketplace or with a cost cut prebuilt. I also take donated/abandoned hardware and build PCs for kids in the area. Wife works at the lowest income school in town, so we know who wants or needs one. They may not be Cyberpunk 2077 4K monsters, but they can handle more than enough. Plus it gets them into the PC space so upgrading down the road is a better prospect.
You're a good person, and this is one of the reasons I'm subscribing to this channel. Besides the helpful content, of course. I'm 64 years old living here in Malaysia since I was born. My late father who passed away last year at 90 had dementia during the last 7 years of his life. That's how I immediately connected when I saw one of the Shorts here mentioning a bit about your mother. It's very sad and painful to see one's parents no longer like what they had once been. Best Wishes to you and your family, and to the people you're involved with. We may be far away, with different race, religion and culture. But essentially we are all "the same" when it comes to life and living.
hey Andy, i just wanna say thank you for reading my comment on the old macbook swollen battery short, and I just wanna say that you are a great person and your business is great as always, and your content is awesome.
5:22 Sucks that your Apple Watch failed, but my Pixel Watch not only got the answer, it spoke it out to me. Rats do not burp, nor can they have acid reflux, and they are not capable of vomiting. They do not have the muscle capacity in their esophagus to expel the excessive force required to burp, vomit, or even have acid reflux.
I really like the chemistry you have with your partner.. You guys seem to have a lot of fun working together in the industry you both like. What a team !! ♥♥
Ya know, good for you and well done! There are other youtubers who do the same thing and that's great. And FYI, I do like the long videos better than the shorts.
I love this long form videos, im glado to see the good thing you did in yhe past ate paying off today I am glad to say you truly are The Greatest Technician Thats Ever Lived ❤
Quite literally, the kindest technician that ever lived! You are a hero Sir! Oi! You got an Sub from Scandinavia now. Good man. If only more could be like you Sir.
I found your videos popping up in my feed randomly. The intersection of generational poverty and tech repair is right up my alley. Being poor as hell sucks, but I never went without the bare necessities. Now my retirement plan is solely predicated on surviving until my parents have accidents and receive settlement payouts that they can gift to me via inheritance. Which is exactly what happened.
Very fine of you to do this. Unfortunately scammers refuse to take any additional proper images of the equipment they sell. Clean table with the pc showing it runs something is a minimum. Adding a shot of the Uefi showing specs of relevant parts is also necessary. Then the seller can only say the delivery guy broke something. Go get it yourself if possible, ask to see it running. But pre-builts are preferred often among experts too.
Just came across ya! Workin on my A+ certs now, love working with computer and see all the "gaming pc" ads on local market and just like wtfff scammers are everywhere! Keep up the great work!
Cheers and love what you do sir! As someone who builds computers for everyone I know (and teach them how to), it is rewarding to help someone out and it is unfortunate that people take advantage over ignorance on a topic like computers.
Always nice to see you dropping longform uploads. I love your sense of humour and having it spaced out a bit over a few more minutes than they would be in a short is great.
Bruh, literally been watching forever, love these. Also kudos to gardening and helping community, absolutely adore when people I enjoy are genuinely great human beings. thanks
You're one hell of a stand-up guy growing up helping people make their lives better with limited resources and your dad definitely gave you some great advice.
I actively go out of my way to make sure pcs i build aren't shitboxes that overheat or are scammy. I'm on the pc side hustle, but I'm making sure to not do something I'd hate. irritates me when i see someone online selling some POS for 500 knowing someone is gonna bite. The lack of at least the bare minimum, a working PC, and taking advantage of someone who knows little about PCs or anything really is just overall frustrating, and I'm glad that people like you exist.
Thank you for the video. I don’t understand much about computer repairs, and all the talk about the sponsor is white noise for me. But it’s still really interesting to see behind the curtain of computer repairs from a guy with such great attitude :)
It's really unfortunate that people will do stuff like this to get a quick buck, but, it's good that you're around to help those who get into these situations. I am tech savvy enough to be able to build my own rig and have everything work for the most part, I know how to troubleshoot, but knowing people do stuff like this online just bothers me a lot for obvious reasons.
As someone who build custom 2xXeons for students who need the horsepower on the cheap i can understand that, begining was ruff... but have been at it for 5 years and people come back just because it's so difficult now a days to even trust pictures and find someone who is not trying to screw them over, love your content! keep at it
I love your videos, and how honest you are about the industry you work in. Poverty is a pain, my dad used to get computers from the side of the road so at least we'd be able to do school assignments. most didn't work, but as a hobby I'd at least get them running software wise.
Even though i fell in love with your shorts. I am loving this longer video. Its basically a longer peak at the daily life of the "greatest technician that's ever lived"
You're the first person I've seen on youtube peel the label off of the nvme so that it makes contact with the heatsink thermal pads. That reassures me that I did the right thing when I removed mine. Thanks. I remember reading it somewhere but almost every youtuber I have watched leaves them on. Also, nice work helping someone out.
@@noveliayuki Also, I dont think you're f-ed. Like I said I have seen it done both ways without anyone saying it definitely has to be done either way. In my mind it just makes sense to take that label off to allow as much heat to transfer directly to the pads.
@@Two_Thumbz yeah, it makes sense to me to remove it too. Thats why i think i did it wrong, probably peeling it off is a bit better. Its fine though, now i know for the next time i get a nvme. Thanks
@@noveliayuki It doesn't have to be removed. They are made to stay on there. It may affect it slightly but not enough to matter. Also remember that nvme ssds are designed to run in certain heat ranges from 50c to 90c or so. I believe the controllers need to run hot to work properly, unlike most other pc components.
My dude, you are the last of a dying breed. Lived my life under "treat others the way you'd want to be treated" and hustling someone just trying to get a little of what the rest got while on a budget ain't the move. You remember your roots and keep it 100. Qualities that are dying off generation by generation. So, just thanks mane
Yoww thanks for sharing your day fixing this computer. Enjoyable to watch plus we got life lesson. Awesome haha! I am an incomming 4th year IT student and what I want is to be a game developer, or a programmer in general but because I play on low end systems, I learned to clean, optimize, reformat, and fix hardware (nothing complex). SO I guess I have a shot in starting a carrer like what you are doing.
I've been watching your short videos for a while. I just subscribed. Your content is making me interested in trying this, more as a hobby than a profession, or maybe I'd try to acquire used computers and refurbish them.

Scams like this are the reason we started our prebuilt business as well. We even make build videos with alot of our builds for public transparency.
I always enjoy your shorts but your long format videos are fun as well. Always enjoy the content from the greatest technician that's ever lived.
You're truly a gem of a person. Would you ever consider setting up a Patreon?
Thank you so much but I'm really just a normal dude. I'd like to think most decent people in my position would make the same decisions. I have considered a Patreon but the last thing I want is for people to donate and for me not to be able to provide content worthy of donations. I'm struggling to manage my time between the store and social media, so perhaps in the future.
You do exactly as I do. I give back to customers that get hosed either by a marketplace or with a cost cut prebuilt.
I also take donated/abandoned hardware and build PCs for kids in the area. Wife works at the lowest income school in town, so we know who wants or needs one. They may not be Cyberpunk 2077 4K monsters, but they can handle more than enough. Plus it gets them into the PC space so upgrading down the road is a better prospect.
You guys rock.
I know it's not much but keep up the damn good work!
Dude just you watching is enough, seriously. Thank you so much!
Absolutely loved the video. Found you via shorts, but love these longer actual videos!
10:49 we need morals and you're father is absolutely right, It's heartwarming to see guys like you doing right things ❤
It really warms my heart to see people and TH-camrs like you:)
This previously had weed in it 😅 I'm dying
You're a good person, and this is one of the reasons I'm subscribing to this channel. Besides the helpful content, of course.
I'm 64 years old living here in Malaysia since I was born. My late father who passed away last year at 90 had dementia during the last 7 years of his life. That's how I immediately connected when I saw one of the Shorts here mentioning a bit about your mother. It's very sad and painful to see one's parents no longer like what they had once been.
Best Wishes to you and your family, and to the people you're involved with. We may be far away, with different race, religion and culture. But essentially we are all "the same" when it comes to life and living.
I'm shocked to see Loopya ACTUALLY working! 😉🤭
I love these long form videos so much. Inspires me to start my own tech repair business, but I think the business is too saturated in my area.
2:31 i gagged at the dead roach being in the box.
You gagged at that small thing. Come to india some time. You will puke your heart out
me too
hey Andy, i just wanna say thank you for reading my comment on the old macbook swollen battery short, and I just wanna say that you are a great person and your business is great as always, and your content is awesome.
5:22 Sucks that your Apple Watch failed, but my Pixel Watch not only got the answer, it spoke it out to me. Rats do not burp, nor can they have acid reflux, and they are not capable of vomiting. They do not have the muscle capacity in their esophagus to expel the excessive force required to burp, vomit, or even have acid reflux.
i run a computer repair/sales shop with my dad and im super thankful that stuff like this is one in a million, i applaud your patience good sir

CPU to CPU fan: Ayo bro watch your jet
AYO, watch your jet!
AYO BRO WATCH YOUR JET!
(Don’t ask it’s the first thing that came to mind)
I watched your shorts when I started getting into PC building and started my LLC! Thanks for showing us how it goes down behind the scenes 😊
Music 🎶 is nice. u should use it
I really like the chemistry you have with your partner.. You guys seem to have a lot of fun working together in the industry you both like. What a team !! ♥♥
10:01 : Sounds like you are not a fan... of Fanxiang
Ya know, good for you and well done! There are other youtubers who do the same thing and that's great. And FYI, I do like the long videos better than the shorts.
The kindest technician thats ever lived
Thank you so much, I'll make sure to pass this on!
Love your content bro. Thank you for sticking around for us little guys. Huge respect to you.
3:44 Bro literally leaked phone numbers
I doubt they're real phone numbers tho

I am glad to say you truly are The Greatest Technician Thats Ever Lived ❤

Quite literally, the kindest technician that ever lived! You are a hero Sir! Oi! You got an Sub from Scandinavia now. Good man. If only more could be like you Sir.
Congratulations on the 1.2mil!! You deserve it as the greatest technician that's ever lived!
I found your videos popping up in my feed randomly. The intersection of generational poverty and tech repair is right up my alley. Being poor as hell sucks, but I never went without the bare necessities. Now my retirement plan is solely predicated on surviving until my parents have accidents and receive settlement payouts that they can gift to me via inheritance. Which is exactly what happened.
Very fine of you to do this. Unfortunately scammers refuse to take any additional proper images of the equipment they sell. Clean table with the pc showing it runs something is a minimum. Adding a shot of the Uefi showing specs of relevant parts is also necessary. Then the seller can only say the delivery guy broke something. Go get it yourself if possible, ask to see it running. But pre-builts are preferred often among experts too.
Just came across ya! Workin on my A+ certs now, love working with computer and see all the "gaming pc" ads on local market and just like wtfff scammers are everywhere! Keep up the great work!
Cheers and love what you do sir! As someone who builds computers for everyone I know (and teach them how to), it is rewarding to help someone out and it is unfortunate that people take advantage over ignorance on a topic like computers.
Always nice to see you dropping longform uploads. I love your sense of humour and having it spaced out a bit over a few more minutes than they would be in a short is great.
Awesome attitude. Love the shorts, and now a full length one. :)
Nice work dude, hope your watching the Belgian GP right about now!
Hah, you know me well. I stayed up until 5am making this video, slept til 9, and am currently watching it as I eat.
Bruh, literally been watching forever, love these. Also kudos to gardening and helping community, absolutely adore when people I enjoy are genuinely great human beings. thanks
You're one hell of a stand-up guy growing up helping people make their lives better with limited resources and your dad definitely gave you some great advice.
Thanks for all you do for your customers!
Thx for the work and the fun. Loved the values shown at the end.
I actively go out of my way to make sure pcs i build aren't shitboxes that overheat or are scammy. I'm on the pc side hustle, but I'm making sure to not do something I'd hate. irritates me when i see someone online selling some POS for 500 knowing someone is gonna bite. The lack of at least the bare minimum, a working PC, and taking advantage of someone who knows little about PCs or anything really is just overall frustrating, and I'm glad that people like you exist.
Thank you for the video. I don’t understand much about computer repairs, and all the talk about the sponsor is white noise for me. But it’s still really interesting to see behind the curtain of computer repairs from a guy with such great attitude :)
2:34 Casually ignored the roach
It's really unfortunate that people will do stuff like this to get a quick buck, but, it's good that you're around to help those who get into these situations. I am tech savvy enough to be able to build my own rig and have everything work for the most part, I know how to troubleshoot, but knowing people do stuff like this online just bothers me a lot for obvious reasons.
As someone who build custom 2xXeons for students who need the horsepower on the cheap i can understand that, begining was ruff... but have been at it for 5 years and people come back just because it's so difficult now a days to even trust pictures and find someone who is not trying to screw them over, love your content! keep at it
I really just enjoy watching you fix all of these computers, and I personally just like that you are an all around really nice guy :)
I love your videos, and how honest you are about the industry you work in. Poverty is a pain, my dad used to get computers from the side of the road so at least we'd be able to do school assignments. most didn't work, but as a hobby I'd at least get them running software wise.
Even though i fell in love with your shorts. I am loving this longer video. Its basically a longer peak at the daily life of the "greatest technician that's ever lived"
I wish you were closer to my neck of the woods. I seriously enjoy the same line of work, and you guys are awesome.
You're the first person I've seen on youtube peel the label off of the nvme so that it makes contact with the heatsink thermal pads. That reassures me that I did the right thing when I removed mine. Thanks. I remember reading it somewhere but almost every youtuber I have watched leaves them on. Also, nice work helping someone out.
Wait, which label? I dont remember peeling off a label when i got a new nvme... ahh im fcked :(
@@noveliayuki at the 10:09 mark. the crucial nvme ssd label.
@@noveliayuki Also, I dont think you're f-ed. Like I said I have seen it done both ways without anyone saying it definitely has to be done either way. In my mind it just makes sense to take that label off to allow as much heat to transfer directly to the pads.
@@Two_Thumbz yeah, it makes sense to me to remove it too. Thats why i think i did it wrong, probably peeling it off is a bit better. Its fine though, now i know for the next time i get a nvme. Thanks
@@noveliayuki It doesn't have to be removed. They are made to stay on there. It may affect it slightly but not enough to matter. Also remember that nvme ssds are designed to run in certain heat ranges from 50c to 90c or so. I believe the controllers need to run hot to work properly, unlike most other pc components.
Incredible work as always man! Super informative and professional comedy aside 💯❤️🔥🤘🏽
Its so great that you're doing things like this, you really are the greatest technician thats every lived. Much love man!
That mini NAS kit is kind of a steal, might have to pick one up
My dude, you are the last of a dying breed. Lived my life under "treat others the way you'd want to be treated" and hustling someone just trying to get a little of what the rest got while on a budget ain't the move. You remember your roots and keep it 100. Qualities that are dying off generation by generation. So, just thanks mane
Yoww thanks for sharing your day fixing this computer. Enjoyable to watch plus we got life lesson. Awesome haha!
I am an incomming 4th year IT student and what I want is to be a game developer, or a programmer in general but because I play on low end systems, I learned to clean, optimize, reformat, and fix hardware (nothing complex). SO I guess I have a shot in starting a carrer like what you are doing.
I've been watching your short videos for a while. I just subscribed. Your content is making me interested in trying this, more as a hobby than a profession, or maybe I'd try to acquire used computers and refurbish them.
your videos are the highlight of my day. And your shorts are the highlight of my corporate funded bathroom visits.
I really wish we had more shops like you, Salem.
Love your videos and creativity. Please keep on growing
The Greatest Technician that ever lived is too small of a title for you my good sir. I wish you the best and I vow to always watch your videos
Man, i really love the content you created, the stupid editing and jokes you make, not very brain rot, its perfect
