Congrats, you just become all your familys designated tech guy.

[disparutoo]

Congrats on your ascension. When I switched to PC gaming, I never went back. Next up, it's time to learn the way of mouse and keyboard FPS rather than controller aimbotting people. Was impressed by how smooth the build went, didn't even slip up on the ram slots. Even now when I build pcs I forget the order to plug in cables and end up struggling to fit them past other parts 🤣

[NefariousKoel]

Congrats, man. I still recall my personal victory parade after building my first PC around 23 years ago. After the usual hiccups, and having to figure a thing or two out on my own for those old machines (dip switch settings, looking at you), it was quite satisfying. Got easier as time went by; more builds done, less troubleshooting or reference needed, and the tech became more user friendly. And, of course, saving money while doing so.

it's a great feeling when ya get that first build up & running. here's to many more 🍻

Apple isn't a tech company. It's a fashion brand.

Congratulations. I did some work for a charity that disassembled old computers to provide computers for those in need, and I have to say that assembling computers has gotten significantly easier over the last twenty years. Thank God. May Ice Pick serve you long and well.

As a fellow owner of 011 Air Mini I can assure you that changing defaults fans is a must if you like quiet running pc, beside that it's a great case.

[nishantmishra]

You are slowly becoming the only content creator I watch on youtube regularly. Congrats on the new PC my dude!

4:54 This is the way.
7:00 Best sponsor spot b-roll footage I've ever seen.
You did better than the Verge PC build video. Nice Job Jonny.

[Cornerboy]

I'm proud of you Jonny. Apples are for children and the elderly. You'll never go back; indeed, you'll never want to.

[CraigWard]

Well done mate, nice build.

Welcome to the party, pal!

[yarnwitch]

Looks slick! Congrats and well done man!

[coragin]

I know this is a year old @Johnny, you may remember I asked you about your fans months back.

Glad to see you built your own and are learning. And like you said, now you got the big. It's fun isn't it?

Well, just wanted to drop a comment and give you some praise. Glad you are enjoying it.

[nalublackwater]

Proud of you, ma boy. Apple is for people who don't really like computers, but need to use one and make it look like a fashion accessory.

[bbthebeee]

I've never been so happy watching a video! I wish I could build my own/ upgrade my custom-prebuild I'm running a 2070 card with i7 intel. It runs fine but I think it can do with some beefing up and more fans. Im stuck staring at an ugly black tower with a clear window that shows nothing fancy inside. WANNA HELP ME JONNY??? Your build is making me so inspired! Love all the effort you put into editing this too! The FlexiSpot had me giggling! You look good advertising that! Hope Ice Pick is great for you Jonny! Another great vid! 🥰

[PoopaChallupa]

This is like a Linus video, without the ads and allegations...

[joepineapples]

Hey jonny, massive shout out to you, I love all your content just wanna say a massive thank for all you do and some cracking entertainment, seriously you are one of the best
Keep up the good work mate👍👍

[JohnDavidSullivan]

Late to this one, but as an experienced PC builder myself (20+ years) I just want to wish you a huge PC builder well done. You've done a good job. You did mention about the RAM speed, and you are correct Mhz clock speed does mean faster, BUT it depends on the CAS Latency. Ideally you want the higher clock speed with the lower CAS Latency, but the lower the CAS the more expensive. But in real world performance there's not much in it for the average user or gamer. Arguably 1-3 fps - not worth fighting over so in future or for anyone out there just get the best deal. And as others have said, don't forget to enable XMP in the BIOS.

[Amrah]

So many caught in the Apple trap, fools.

[alena.k]

I know fuck all about computers OR gaming but you did made me chuckle and I did enjoyed watching the built. Thank you 😊
