Merry Christmas y’all! I hope you enjoy. Check out my merch and the PC here.

My favorite about building budget non-RGB PCs is the simplicity of it. Very little wires, easy to install stock cooler, and the single M.2 SSD.

[yaseenlol]

I absolutley loved how calm and chill this video is, no screaming the title, no fancy stuff just a guy explaining calmly, this makes me consider doing this build.

Budget builds are 10000x more interesting than top-of-the-end expensive ones. Would love more videos like this in the future!

For those out there that want to follow something like this video, a 1650 super or 1660 used on eBay goes for about 70-80 dollars. For $20 more, it’s a pretty significant upgrade. Plus you’d be getting new drivers, since NVidia still supports it

[certified_freak]

You are genuinely one of the best technology youtubers out there. Your calm and relaxed demeanor is so refreshing compared to others and I actually enjoy watching you build step by step. Keep doing what you are doing 😁

[frankboyer]

The chill energy and straightforward explanations are totally my vibe. Gaming videos don't need to be loud and in your face. Thank you.

[headgasket_]

Huge respect! Many youtubers trying to build world's most expensive builds with latest tech and here you are saving our ass.

[applejuice]

I cant lie this man has helped me out so much my first gaming pc was a success

[thecasualcanuck]

I absolutely love these super chill builds. I watch bitwit and a bunch of other pc building channels, and the hype is fun sure. But these are really laid back and relaxed. I love it. Merry christmas! Great video as always

[OootearooO]

I love all your videos. You were the reason why I was able to build my very first pc for $500. Thank you😊

[nerdgeneralist]

Really appreciate the chill vibe and yet still dishing out some good PC talk. A lot of the big PC HW channels are so loud and abrasive. This is like The Joy of Painting but for the PC world.

Used this case for my recent build and I absolutely love the looks and quality for how cheap it is

[The_GodlyGecko]

The way you do your videos is just ... *chefs kiss*, chill beats, a little bit of back ground noise from the building. I get myself fresh ground and poured espresso and just vibe and feel pure relaxed. 10/10, get this man 1 mill subs

[SpaceDust_]

Oz, you are so down to earth, chill, and giving ppl out there that are in a budget very sound advice and how-to get into reasonable PC gaming. I live this style of tech channel. You sir, are one of the few, and a solid above the rest at that!
GG, good sir!

I built almost the exact same thing for my nephew for a Christmas build. I did have an NZXT case and extra Lian Li SL120s and I went with 120v2. I also was able to go with a 2TB team group m.2 and I had the case, fans, and PSU (a NZXT 750), but everything else was the same. He mostly plays Fortnite, so it should get him going. He's going to pick out so custom sleaves, and then save for a better GPU. Oh, for my gift to him, I got him a 65% mechanical keyboard, all white, with cherry brown switches and a white glorious mouse.

[Brikzilla]

As someone who just build a budget PC for my nephew for Christmas, I gotta say there's still no beating the ol Optiplex+ Gpu. Got an i7 7700, 16gb, 500gb ssd, gtx 1080, and a 600w psu all for under $330

[chipcurrey]

The relaxing music/barry white voice combination is great

[Anna_Rae]

I really love these videos and this channel. It's got such a chill and cozy vibe 💖💖💖

I used to think what's the point of PC gaming if it's not high end, but these builds definitely show some incredible value for the price, without needing any special deals to take advantage of.

[mouadlafkih]

i was uncertain wether to buy some random aliexpress xeon combo or try for something cheap but future proof, this definitely made me choose what to do, i will buy these same components except the case and in the future i will upgrade if needed, thanks man you helped me a lot, have a great day
