I really like your build, it just looks so clean with the white case.. I just recently did a build on my channel recently but went for all black :) Keep up the great content man!

[@venomsnakessidepiece]

i’m new to pc gaming and came across this when looking to build my first one, this video is enchanted! ✨

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Thank you!! :))

[@nickknamed]

Great build, im also using the rx 470 and ryzen 5 2600x for my build and its achieving very good fps. Rx 470 is an very underrated budget gpu imo

[@speedslimeplayz]

Not bad! I guess my pc aint so bad. Good luck and subbed

[@AlexHusTech]

*Great looking build*

[@ZombieDontMiss]

I'm glad you like it! Thanks a lot

[@boogie9076]

Great video my guy hope you get 1k soon 🎉🎉

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Thank you :))

[@HarmonyMF]

This man deserves 1 million subs NGL very pro video

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Thank you sm

[@jurivjerdha2467]

Beautiful build ^_^

[@MrSamadolfo]

🙂 yay, im using three fish tanks cases of different types

[@cpbdude4409]

thank you so much for making this build I am now building the same pc just ordered the parts :)

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Thank you that’s so cool

[@cpbdude4409]

Hey quick question what games do u think this can run good

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@cpbdude4409 pretty much just any game honestly

[@cpbdude4409]

Okay but hey I just got my motherboard but the cpu won’t fit it’s the same cpu it’s just not fitting on

[@cpbdude4409]

My cpu says on the front intel Xeon e3-1240v3 is that the right one

[@RobertFixit]

Pretty clean! I wish the PSU was white to match, but hey it works!

[@ZombieDontMiss]

True. Would look nice!

[@Gatts03]

I know nothing about pc when I click the link for motherboard a bunch pop up what’s the specific one 🙏

[@FrostedAimer]

Get this man to 1k

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Real 🙏🏼

[@ElizabethDMadison]

I don't know about the specs but I do know it's a gaming pc because it has so many fans and they are lit up so that means it would run any game pretty much.

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Exactly

[@SirAzur3]

The aesthetics are a dream but I don't know about the performance, it wouldnt be my dream at least. I built my dream PC for only a little more but I ditched aesthetics and got a used workstation PC to get the best performance and value over anything else. So I guess each person just needs to decide if they want better performance or better asethetics.

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Totally understandable. Nah I just play Fortnite so as long as I’m getting 120fps I’m happy 😂 Used workstation is a smart idea though, I bought a few of those recently

[@Esterango]

Hey um can u help me, what motherboard is the best to pair with the intel i7

[@tkoahmaze6829]

It would depend on the generation of i7 you have, unless you're talking about the one he mentioned in the video? If not, which i7 are you talking about?

[@ChrisKadaver]

Dude. Wtf!
You're tying to fit a LGA 1150 to a LGA 1155 motherboard?! :o

[@CJFromGroveStreet]

I built mine for 300usd . It packs a ryzen 5 2600 and rx 5600xt .

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Nice combo

[@CharredSG]

[@ZombieDontMiss]

I just built one just like this for $200 but it’s an rx5500 XT

[@matthewtonkovich8709]

Got a build list? Need a good cheap fast computer for trading just two screens

[@CJFromGroveStreet]

@@matthewtonkovich8709 Ryzen 5 2600 , b450m ds3h v2 motherboard , 8x2 gb ram ddr4 , 512gb ssd , 550W PSU , rx 5600xt , No rgb gaming case just a boring old dell case cause I just wanted performance

[@Aether241]

Will this one be able to run minecraft woth shaders and a few mods? Thanks

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Yes it will, I tested it yesterday

[@Aether241]

​@@ZombieDontMissThank you will try building it soon

[@Zilla42537]

How does it perform in apex legends and valorant

[@ZombieDontMiss]

I’ll have to check; but it definitely would be able to run them. I like PC because regardless of the build it still has no delay compared to console

[@BMW-M4-M-POWER]

Im gonna built a 300 dollar gaming pc too soon but should i get a ryzen 5 3600 Ryzen or 7 2700x with gtx1070

[@ZombieDontMiss]

They’re very similar in performance but the Ryzen 5 takes the win

[@gogaming5449]

u did that cpu dirty :( didnt clean it before hehe ;D

[@ZombieDontMiss]

😔

[@gogaming5449]

hehe still nice build for 300

Finally Someone Who Understands "Budget", Wanted to see was some benchmarks. W vid though

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Thank you! Glad you liked the video

[@ZaidenMC]

@@ZombieDontMiss How does it preform planning on building something similar for my first build

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@ZaidenMC it performs pretty well especially for someone’s first build. Someone did a benchmark video with the same specs if you wanna check it out: ruclips.net/video/u-ABIX3BxmM/видео.htmlsi=kniLJGnPq34WYH9F

[@ZaidenMC]

@@ZombieDontMiss Thank you. Anything should lookout for especially that this is a dated motherboard. Any compatibility issues etc

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@ZaidenMC most of these motherboards don’t have usb3.0 support but of course there’s still a bunch of the 2.0 ports, not really any issues I can think of at the top of my head, I build these a lot. I think you’ll really like it

[@DANYbonheur]

Full tutorial brother

[@youraveragehoursplayer642]

What do I do if my h61 mobo doesn’t have a rob header for my cpu cooler?

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Most don’t, you’ll need a sata 3 pin RGB controller. Here’s a link to the ones I usually get if my case doesn’t come with an RGB hub

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Although the case I linked in the video should come with a hub and you shouldn’t need any additional parts

[@youraveragehoursplayer642]

@@ZombieDontMiss ok thanks, I just got my custom pc finished, it was based on the video you have from feb 2nd I think?
Specs: gtx 1060, h61 mobo, 1tb ssd, i7 3770 ( at the time I bought it I didn’t know Xeons compare to 4/5 gen i7 lol) 16 Gb ddr3.
Thanks for the build idea as I didn’t get an exact replica, but you still inspired a lot of the thoughts and design of my pc.

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@youraveragehoursplayer642 that’s so cool, thanks for watching bro!

[@yk_the_vibes]

How much fps does it get?

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Depends usually like 140

[@staky_jaky]

What frames did it get

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Typically like 120fps on performance settings. I mostly play Fortnite and this thing was awesome

[@CJFromGroveStreet]

Why did you spent more on aesthetics than performance ?

[@ZombieDontMiss]

RGB = FPS

[@sruul]

can i use a 1660 super and a AMD Ryzen 5 5500?

[@ZombieDontMiss]

For an AMD socket motherboard yes

[@sruul]

@@ZombieDontMiss do you know any other cpu that would not bottle neck with the 1660 super

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@@sruul the r5 5600X but honestly you should be good with the 5500

[@sruul]

@@ZombieDontMiss could I use it with that mother board

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@@sruul no you would have to get another motherboard. Look up “am4” motherboard and that should work!! 🙏🏼

[@echeese63]

$300 seems high for a build on a 10 year old platform

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Yeah it’s be a bit less with local deals and not putting much effort in the aesthetics department

[@summary9569]

No way Xeon💀

[@OffsetRoleplayps4]

Xeon is the best budget cpu

[@tamaris_]

the look 😍 the the components🤢
