  1. Hey Linus, Congrats on the 1 Million subs! I found out about your channels around June of 2013. Around that time my laptop I was gifted for graduating high school was crapping out and all the hype for "OMG SUPER NEXT GEN CONSOLES," was starting to surface. And at that time I found myself in quite a financial pickle. I needed a new PC, but I also wanted to continue gaming. And so, the idea popped in my head. "What about a gaming PC?" Along with this idea was "FUCK! Gaming PCs cost $5,000, this idea sucks!" So I did some reached and stumbled upon your videos about building computers within a certain price range. And from there lead to watching endless videos on how to build PCs and all their different components. And so my journey began when I casually mentioned the idea to my father who works for Intel. For my 21st birthday he sent me the gift of a bundled deal he was able to get from work which contained an Intel Core i5-4670K and an 224GB Intel brand SSD. And from there I dove in head first with pcpartpicker and Linus tech tips at my side. And looking forward to today, I can honestly say I am truly proud of what I was able to do compared to what I was going to do. Which was buy a laptop and buy a PS4. Your videos helped me realize my gaming rig as it is today. I can feel proud knowing I built it and I can upgrade it slowly as some parts start to struggle instead of having to buy a whole new PC. Hell, I throw new part in the my rig even if the old ones will suffice, merely because that shit is cool and it make me feel good. This whole experience has sparked an amazing hobby of mine and I am very grateful for all the work you and your team have done to help me get to where I am today. On a side note. MRW, After switching from Intel integrated graphics to a full-fledged graphics card: http://gfycat.com/EquatorialLazyKudu Thanks again Linus and team.
