    I'm months away from building my pc, but I'm constantly obsessing about it and researching. I'm actually glad I haven't got enough money yet, because a month ago I would've been totally ripped off if I'd have bought it then, as it would have been totally incompatible and generally crap. Tutorials like this have helped me a lot, thanks.

    1st off Austin I want to thank you and your team for the videos that you produce. I've been watching for a while with a lot of your broke versus pros and the ultimate whatever Videos. I'm thanking you because my son is a junior in high school hes an hes Is Is computer programming course with his high school at a local Tech campus. He has been talking about computer Programming/Web design//game design since he was about 10. The reason I'm thanking you is because you inspired me to want to buy him his 1st gaming PC to Build. And my wife and I even drove 3 hours away to our local micro center as you'll make it look amazing and amazing is a understatement of that store. We live in Newport News Virginia we drove all the way to Maryland to buy all the components that he can build his 1st game in the 1st game in pc an eventually upgrade. His teacher had his programming class said that he is one of the most interested student he Teachers so not only is this a gift for Christmas but it is an investment. And does creators like yourself and others that I've watched over It's time and only building P c's but but reviewing technology that I enjoy watching. And here's shortly we're gonna watch this same video to to help him build his 1st pc. Thanks again
