    Hi.

    At This Moment I have a intel i7 9700 and I feel I am downgrading my cpu with this. Is there a different amd variant that would suite better?



  9. CoZZoK1ng on April 2, 2021 at 1:39 am

    Is there a vid for how to build the parts



  10. ibby A on April 2, 2021 at 1:39 am

    I did use these websites cause I thought they were some scam websites



  11. Abigail Denise on April 2, 2021 at 1:40 am

    Would you be able to play valorant on this?



  12. helman li on April 2, 2021 at 1:41 am

    Hi, is this PC good enough to stream games like fortnite and Rocket league etc. on twitch or YouTube. If yes do I need an Elgato or not.



  13. AlexTheDefault on April 2, 2021 at 1:48 am

    What kind of frames do you get on games like minecraft and cs:go



  14. Cohen Fendyk on April 2, 2021 at 1:49 am

    With the alternative motherboard is that for if you wanted to go to a mid tower or full tower case instead of micro aTX



  15. zitaAU on April 2, 2021 at 1:49 am

    So if I get everything that u guys suggested will my pc work



  16. Harvey Malone on April 2, 2021 at 1:49 am

    will this work on a 1440p monitor?



  17. NikonCrayzee on April 2, 2021 at 1:49 am

    I would like to teach the person behind the camera as well as the post production editor and give them a thorough grounding in …wait for it…HOW NOT TO CREATE A VIDEO!
    The video was so distracting that it was hard to focus on what was actually being built – I actually felt I had a latent form of ADHD – no kidding.



  18. Prashant Ghimire on April 2, 2021 at 1:50 am

    If you don’t care so much about heavily upgrading your pc down the line, you can buy something around 5 to 10 percent behind In productivity the same peformance in gaming for around 1150 AUD.

    1660super 350
    10400f 215
    16gb 2666 90
    B450 tomahawk wifi 160
    H18 thermaltak case 60
    1tb hdd 60
    480gb sata ssd 65
    Case fan 120ml x2 20

    550w vronze 80 plus psu 100

    If u just care about gaming then and don’t stream or edit

    Swap the cpu for 3100 165
    1660s for 2060 460
    2666 ram for 3600 115
    And an am4 wifi mobo 140
    Upgrade the psu to a 600w 110
    Total 1225

    This one is gonna be around 75 dollar aud more expensive, great for gaming but below average for streaming and video editing.



  19. Prod. By STEGGZ on April 2, 2021 at 1:52 am

    Does anyone know if the benchmarks are FPS numbers or just a score based benchmark



  20. Nick Walker on April 2, 2021 at 1:53 am

    Do you still recommend this pc ? I just bought all the parts and think I should have bought newer stuff



  21. Ronie HD on April 2, 2021 at 1:55 am

  22. natalie bennetts on April 2, 2021 at 2:00 am

    Bro thank god I found this channel bc I was going for a $2k pc build but I researched and these parts are only a little bit under the ones I was going for.. g



  23. jagged on April 2, 2021 at 2:02 am

    this makes it so easy, rather than converting usd to aud!



  24. mahalia mcinerney on April 2, 2021 at 2:03 am

    what’s another good graphics card for this build? the one linked is sold out everywhere



  25. helman li on April 2, 2021 at 2:04 am

    Do you think this would look good with the white s100



  26. Coleman on April 2, 2021 at 2:06 am

    I just purchased everything for this build with the upgrades. (1660 super and toughRAM ) And also in including a pure 20 200mm ARGB fan for top of the case and also got my hand on a Wraith Prism AMD cooler. I’ve also just gone with 1TB m.2 ssd and will add a 1TB sea gate HD down the track…finger crossed it all goes well it is my first build.😬😬😬 thanks so much for making this video it’s help me alot..



  33. Planet Official on April 2, 2021 at 2:15 am

    gross



  34. Angus W on April 2, 2021 at 2:16 am

    Can you do a video of gameplay with this pc!? I’m thinking of buying it!



  35. Ant on April 2, 2021 at 2:17 am

    Out of curiousity, is there another RAM part that you can link? I opened up the link in the description of the video for the RAM part and it appeared with an error 404: page not found. If you could link another compatible 16gb RAM part that’s still in budget that would be super handy! Thank you!



  36. jackson leib on April 2, 2021 at 2:20 am

    I feel like your reading my mind,😨😨😨😨



  37. Clan tox1c on April 2, 2021 at 2:22 am
