Who wants to see a FULL 3070 set up video soon?! 😜

[Condisc]

Bruh, that 400 dollar pc build made 7 months ago was okay. This is much better, you have multiple camera angles and the audio is 🔥. Keep up the good work you deserve over 100k subs.

[domeng_gg]

I am once again asking you, to build on a Lian Li 011 Dynamic, don’t matter what budget. Still LOVE your videos Geekawhat!

[Vesper]

Shit man and I thought “Can it run Minecraft” was a running joke.... that thing is making the RTX3070 sweat

[HOPGamingZone]

Great to see you include Control, Doom eternal and Death stranding. These are the types of games that RTX3000 should be benchmarked on because it really puts the gpu to the test. Maybe on your next RTX3000 build we can see the likes of FF XV, Crysis Remastered, Red Dead Redemption 2, the newer Assassin's Creed games and the upcoming Watch Dogs Legion, AC Valhalla and Cyberpunk 2077 once they come out.

Great job as usual!

I'm about to build my first PC ever, using the 3070, so it means quite a lot when you do everything step by step. Love your vids man, just keep it all up!

[breeze]

Dude, I commented this on Instagram and it was made true! Was waiting for this build!

[Narfu]

Cannot wait to buy this pc build in 2021! I get paid £200 a month so gonna take until early summer 2021! I have a 1060 3gb right now and cant really play any new games, so I'm sooo hyped for when I can play all the games I want. Thanks for this video man <3

“Twelve hoondred dollah build”. Great content!

[stilldomi]

I love when YouTubers like yourself supply a bunch of different games because I tend to vary what I play and I might consider building this if I can get my hands on a 3070, and I am definitely subscribing

[eHammy]

“But first though, roll the montage”
*ad about Gorilla Glue plays*

[warpten]

Man honestly one of the best PC building tech youtubers out there. Such energy I'm getting. 11/10. That 3070 looks so tiny compared to those monster 3080's and 3090's ive been seeing.

[msgeen]

I really love your format. Every thing is clean. It doesn't have unnecessary animations and aggressive sound effects. I also love the addition of ticks (6:00) and product labels at the corner. Subscribed.

[hMax]

I'm currently saving up for my first PC. At the moment I'm using a fairly beefy laptop that stuffers from a weak GPU. Loving the videos and especially this one, as it fits perfectly into my planned budget when converted to £s.

I just subscribed, as should many more people.

[GamingByThomas]

This is what we’ve all been waiting for!

[szzy]

James you and your mate are doing an amazing job at filming these amazing high-quality videos! keep it up, guys!!

[nickdaniel]

I usually don’t comment, but this video is so amazing and helpful. I’m trying to get a PC for Christmas and I didn’t know what to ask for or get when it came to components. This just made it so much easier and straight forward than any other video I’ve watched. Thank you 🙏

[mhmwolfy]

Is nobody going to mention the fact that he called it “B550 tomahawk MAX” when the max version doesn’t exist as a B550

[cdtheminerdude]

Thank you so so much I was planning to go with this configuration and I was waiting for someone to do this build now that you've done it all my doubts are clear... Thanks ❤️❤️

[somiradomacadato]

Such a blessing for us people that want to build their own PC. Thank you!
