One of life's cruelest tricks is letting you slowly go up the product stacks over the years, until you finally reach the top where you can play everything at the highest possible frame rates, but then you don't have time for games anymore because you're a dad with a full-time job 😔

The amount of Marcus’ videos that I’ve watched in preparation for ordering my pc. I finally ordered it all, thank you so much!

I can't help but notice that for many gamers the 'last' and still as important thing is audio. Don't forget to save budget for some nice sound whether it be speakers or a headphone/headset setup. This makes many RPG games more immersive and give you an edge in the e-sports titles by hearing your enemy before seeing them.

I've been watching your videos for a couple weeks now, I've always wanted to move to PC but ive been scared to mess up building one, but with the help of your videos I'm now awaiting for the delivery of the rest of my parts to arrive so I can build my first gaming PC

[MrSpaceboy]

another great video! thanks! I was just thinking about looking for more info on how to find performance jumps (or lack thereof) for the amount of money I spend on PC parts. This is a video in the right direction for what is useful for me! cheers!

keep this flowing, we love this type of content

[gemmalloyd]

Watching all you’re videos and finding them so helpful. I’m not lying I’m well out of the gaming world but my daughter is now following in my earlier years. I think as well getting a budget in mind and trying to get the best value for your money is a great way to avoid falling down the rabbit hole and being disappointed. Currently awaiting the new gaming pc delivery!

Thanks for your videos. You have taught me a lot about gaming PC's and just PC's in general. You have helped me tweak mine for best performance. Love your videos.

[gishifps]

I genuinely laughed out loud at the IT Crowd reference. Thats one of the many reasons I love your content 🙌🏾 keep it up!

[kanishkmathur]

[simonacomanescu]

Thank you for this video. We will look into your other videos on how to put together a pc.

I'm an old guy (almost 50) and was just looking for something about this topic. Thank you for doing this.

ng the good work😍😍😍

The biggest thing I learned is that if you buy the right PC, you will get an amazing pc for gaming and productivity and media consumption scenarios. I was going to buy a console and a new PC in 2021 and ended up buying a Corsair Pre Build with a Ryzen 7 5800X and RTX 3070 instead of two different devices. I added a 2TB SSD and memory to upgrade it to 32GB. I've got two devices in one - an amazing device to build content and work from - and play games. I wasn't focused on FPS - just wanted to play Flight Simulator. F1, and some other games. It feels like driving a ferrari every day when I work from it!

[whyulion]

"How much should you spend." You gave no monetary values at all. 😂 Definitely an informative video though as I'm currently building two.

[steelerheat]

I randomly clicked on your channel one day a few months ago and now I’m getting ready to buy a pc for my birthday soon. Thank you so much for your amazing tips and content I’m super excited to join the pc side soon and can’t wait for more from this channel!
