I think PC Builders like you that know how to fix the whole "The part is out of stock" issue are great. Its like "teach a man to fish"

[marcusnoahjefftuckernate]

My friend is building his first pc right now so this comes at a perfect time, thanks Zach!

[tallsz]

12400F and the B660M Mortar is a great combo. You are setting yourself up with an elegant board with great VRMs ready for Intel 13th gen

[eddy]

Exquisite video Zach! I love seeing videos like this in different price ranges. 🥇

[ChristopherFartNickel]

The hellhound card is great for the price point just wish you could change the fan color for those who want to side mount the card. Good video as always feel free to take your time you cant rush perfection!

This is a pretty solid build but for $1000 but if you want to get the most performance i would recommend you this build.
Intel i5 12400f for $174 (can be found for lower)
Vetroo U6 pro cooler for $49
Asrock B660 pro ATX for $109
Teamgroup classic 16gb (8x2 3200) for $43
Adata legend 500gb m.2 for $35
XFX Radeon Rx 6750xt 12gb for $470
Any ATX case under $60 will be fine
Rosewill 80+ bronze psu semi modu for $54

Total about $999

This pc is pretty future proof cuz you can always upgrade to Intel's 13th gen when it comes out cuz it's backwards compatible and it's easy to upgrade the storage, GPU, and cooler. Have a nice day

Zach, know how you feel about doing white builds. Matte white, semi gloss, off white is all frustrating. Still looks solid and thankfully you can cover any off whites with aRGB!

[Rsalance]

Massive respect to you for the single dad stuff. You got this

[bradbezner]

If I’m doing a $1k build today, I’m going all white ITX in the Meshlicious, not certain of components but I would make it work

[lukev]

I was actually looking exactly for a 1k build👍👍

[beaugizmo]

I used this video as a guide to build my first rig. Thanks Zach.

[itz_bboucher]

Can you do a $1500 build? That would be amazing.

[kingzilant]

Bro, keep staying strong, I work nights to watch my 2 girls while wife works all day, I feel you. Sick build! #superdad

[cadkins]

Just purchased everything for my first build. It’s this. Exactly. Except for 2 things.

Ram: Oloy Blade RGB 32 GB (2x16)
GPU: Zotac Twin Edge OC White 3070

I’m pumped

[gamingcyber]

Great video Zach. Love the case as I have changed over to it after using it in a flip. Would love to see a mw2 remake benchmark vid, think it would be interesting to see the preformence on budget cards like the gas 960 and 1050 ti. Keep up the hustle!!!

[WellBeSerious]

Antec 80+ Platinum (EathWatts EA-650 650W) lasted 10 years and is actively used in my main computer. Amazing and best, from my experience, if you can get it on sale!!!

[codeyfrisk]

Thank you for showing me pc build guide I’m a first time building my pc your videos have made it easy for me thank u zach

Given the socket mount issues with the 12th Gen intel's, I'm willing to pay a little more for a 5600x that mounts properly doesn't warp and has proper gap between the CPU and Cooler. I feel like I should not have to pay extra for a proper CPU mounting solution.

[zachcanreed]

Cable extension are essential! Best mod you can do for under $30
