Thank you to everyone who allowed me to do this for the past 8 years. It wouldn't have been possible without the support of my viewers and this isn't lost on me. It's hard to give up on something that you've spent this long building and this whole decision process has been surprisingly emotional. Maybe we shall meet again✌
Best of luck my dude. Always have enjoyed the content!
i am so sad to see you go! You were a huge inspiration and such an awesome talent to watch and learn from over the years! I wish you the best! Also do you have any cameras you want to sell or any filming gear that could help take my content to a better level? I am a smaller channel trying to step up my game and If you have any gear that may help me i would be interested in purchasing some stuff! Thanks again and I hope you enjoy the extra time with the family and friends and things go well!
Loved your work. You were one of the first techtubers I followed when I started PC building. Hope to see ya in one of the local DMV Microcenters…
Wishing you the best with where life takes you next!
I hear ya, I took a big step back when COVID hit and still working on getting myself & my home at a state where I feel comfortable to be spending time into creating and posting media again. Also need to figure out keeping my physical health in balance.
It's been great working with you, Brian. I loved the tours of factories we did together in China and regularly think of that crazy trip. It'd be great to work together again some day on a build. Best wishes for what's next!
balls
Always down to do some projects together 💪

Bro! Come on! Tell you what! Take your break. relax, then jump back IN like someone killed your puppy... But, I do get it. Side hustle can be bitch!
I just want to say, thank you so much, Brian! Your channel has been amazing to watch grow from the beginning! Kudos to you for sticking around so long and many thanks for all the quality content you've given all of us!
❤❤❤😢❤❤❤
As a father of 3 kids i respect your decision entirely. Spending time with family is more important than a little extra income. There is something to be said about quality of life and time to just enjoy family ans friends. Think you are making the right decision. Ive been following you since your "viewers rigs." Was on one of those episodes where my kid had broken one of the fans when building. Its been a long and fun time watching your channel grow. Again, much respect from me and wish you the best.
Imo you're a good and honest man. This is a frank and honest explanation of what to expect when creating video content for the world. I've learned many lessons from you and I appreciate all of your efforts. All the best to you and your family, brother. Thank you.
Dude! You don’t owe anything to anyone. I dabbled with the idea of doing my own channel a number of years ago, but I haven’t and may never do it because of what I see creators like you go through. Like you I have a good job that has it’s own stresses and I don’t want to take away more time even if it is for something that interests me. In the end we need to be accountable to ourselves and do what we need to do to maintain that balance. I have enjoyed your content over the years and while I can say you will be missed, I completely understand and I wish you and your family the best! Take care!
Yes, the amount I make from UA-cam is more than 50% less than what I making two/three years ago with half as many videos and subscribers. My day job as a tech pays for my UA-cam channel where I work for free and get harassment at UA-cam. Even UA-cam themselves create issues with me with false copyright strikes and punitive actions taken without any proper verification or due diligence of the innocent accused. UA-cam is now paying me $13 per 1,000 views. So I spend $3k in computer parts to make a video that earns me $100 in 30 days. I also have a ton of PC parts I want to sell, but don't want to get scammed. If you figure out a way to sell them without getting scammed, please let me know.
Shoot me an email Carey
Ah man, tough to hear. I discovered BPS on YT only somewhat recently (a GN video a year or two ago? tour?) but I remember the case modding stuff from a while back. As a much smaller UA-camr who similarly reviews and builds gaming PCs with some other content mixed in, I have to admit, this is something in the back of my head that I'm afraid of. I like building PCs, always have, probably always will. I don't make the most bestest videos (ha) but I do enjoy it though I have had a limited return on my efforts. Similarly to yourself, the financials for me running my channel aren't great, I've had to essentially gut the budget for the channel this year and its definitely goofed up my plans. I still want to make videos and I will, just, not a much as I would have liked to in my head. I have estimated the costs of scaling up and I haven't becuase I just wasn't sure if it would work. Anyways, hopefully reclaiming a bit of your time provides you with what you need to re-energize other parts of your life. Good luck!
🤜🤛 Good luck on your next chapter Brian. Sorry to see you go, but glad you're making the decision that's best for you. Next time you're in the area, make sure to drop me a line. Whiskey is on me.
Steve from GN got me subbed long ago. Sad to hear, but happy youre ridding some stress. Good luck in future ventures.
I can relate to this. Youtubing is definitely not what people perceive it is. :)
Man that sucks but I totally get it with how UA-cam can be, best of luck going forward!
Brian, it’s okay. It really is. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing. That’s something I had to learn before approaching what I love with a new light. Twitter is always on. Reach out anytime.
Much respect to you Brian. Thank you for all the awesome content. Glad I was able to meet you at CES a few years ago! Take care of yourself.🙏🏼
Man what a sad day. Will miss your content. Take care.
I'm glad to have met you through UA-cam, man. The trips to CES were always a great time, and I always enjoyed seeing your content. You inspired much of how I do what I do on my channel, and this move you're making continues to do so. You're a good dude, and a good friend. Here's to enjoying our hobbies!
Brian, you f*cking rule. Thank you for all of your contributions to the PC enthusiast community. Have always loved your videos and even though we're sorry to hear you're leaving, happy to know you're finding balance in your life and that you're pursuing what matters most to you. Best of luck with everything and please remember that your fans will always be happy to see you again someday! 👑
Your awesome Brian. We support your decision and hope everything works out well for you!
Much respect, totally understand. All the best for what comes next.
As a person that has been subd since 2017 or 2018 im sad to see you go but I understand life choices. Best of luck to you and your family in the future.
Dear Brian. Thank you for the calm, very coherent and wise explanation. I particularly appreciated your intelligent reflections on the superficiality of social media and how it actually detracts from real life and real, genuine experiences. I hope that your stepping away gives you the time back and the space to find more value in your other pursuits. This cannot have been an easy decision for you but it also sounds like you were no longer enjoying yourself and were feeling burdened and trapped, which isn't something that people need in their lives. Wishing you all the best ☸️
Brian, I support your decision. Maybe you can also go visit Salazar. Take care Brian. Thank you for all the great videos. Wish you and your family the best.
Take care my friend
Love you buddy. I don't comment often, but I do watch. Best of luck to you and whatever is next. Family time is everything so I definitely support you for that. I wish you were able to do this full time, but it's definitely not easy. The fact you got this far is a huge achievement, never forget that.
Brian, I'm sorry to see you go, but you really need to do what's best for you. I'll miss you.
You take care of yourself and your family.
-jeff
You will be missed.
Not sure if this is a pattern. Hopefully Tech UA-cam exists in the next 5 years. It seems to be dying off
Good luck and Godspeed.
sad to see this man, but this just means its time you can start on that BEER UA-cam CHANNEL. 😅
I hope the best for you, I enjoyed your content over the years, for sure you will be missed. But you have to do what is best for you!! Hopefully it means you now have time to really put that racing sim to the test!
I am sorry UA-cam did not continue to work for you. Good luck. I have enjoyed your content.
Well sorry to hear, I can understand tho. I hope you move on to a happy and better lifestyle.
Take care of yourself big Dawg and thanks.
you right new gen getting un engaged socially, lets get back to lan parties .cheers
Thanks for your videos man, I first watched your stuff 6 years ago when I built my PC, they helped a lot.
I think you were just missing a better content strategy, if you do decide to return one day:
- work on your thumbnails & titles, some missed the mark around brevity and inciting any curiosity
- video topics need more flair, controversy and overall have to be more interesting
- you can’t ignore shorts
You are right about UA-cam being saturated. A lot of people see these big channels and think it's easy money - make some videos, put them online and watch the money roll in. Maybe you could do that 10 years ago but these days it is virtually impossible. You either do it as a hobby in addition to your main job or you have to make it big so that it can support your lifestyle. With only 35K subs I make a little bit extra each month in addition to my full time job. I have no illusions about making it big and am happy enough to take the monthly ad revenue.
Big bummer to see you step away from YT man, I've always very much enjoyed your content! I hope to see you again in the future. Best of luck Brian!
Nobody wants to work 2 jobs 7 days a week around the clock.
#RIP. Loved the content, and hope you find peace off the internet.
There are a lot of channels, but you definitely brought something unique and cool to your videos. You will be missed. Thanks for everything you shared with us and I hope this is the start of a great rest of the year. Onwards and upwards. 📈
Thanks for everything! I've learned so much on your channel. Wish you the best!
that's what i did years a go !! Thank you for the past hard work man , take care and have fun with your life ✌
Thanks Brian! You were great help when I got back into building PC's and gaming! Enjoy your free time!
Thanks for all of the content you provided! I hate to see you go, but I totally understand why you’re doing it. Best of luck on whatever the future brings!
Take care, enjoy your family.
Thanks for everything, Brian! Long time subscriber here. Wish nothing but the best for you and your family. I feel that we can both agree that PC Building isn't as exciting as it once was, considering the cost to performance these days.
Thank you Brian. A lot of your content got me through a lot of my PC issue when they would arise. Live life and blessing to you and yours.
I salute you, Brian.🫡
I wish you all the best Brian!
May fortune find you sir
😁😁😁👍👍👍.. didn't see that one coming..you will be missed...enjoy whatever direction life leads you.. enjoy the moments.
I hate that you are leaving us. I will miss all your great content. Good luck in whatever you do, I will follow you on Twitter. Good luck 👍 & God Bless!
Thank you Brian, for teaching me how not to mess up while building my PCs and how to benchmark them properly. I totally sympathize with you and I am glad you talked to us about it. We’ll still be here, at least the most loyal subscribers among us, if you ever feel like doing a gaming livestream or two every once in a while just for fun.
Love you dude. I know this was difficult. I enjoy your content. I’m glad you’re doing what’s best for you. Always best wishes.
You’ve gotta do what’s right for you man. Thanks for what you did, best of luck. Cheers
All the best for the Future. Greetings from 🇩🇪. Bundymania Reviews & Modding 😎
Appreciate you, Brian! YES WE SHOULD LIVE IN THE PRESENT. Best of luck in your future endeavors. Wish you good health.
GOOD LUCK!!!! Hope you can fund what makes you happy, as not many of us get to. You know I have actually seen about 3 other 'youtubers' make a video exactly like this so far this spring (and now summer) I've said this to all of you guys so far so I may as well say it again: Maybe you could keep yourself open to reviewing certain products to continue that EVER SO COVETED BENEFIT of getting free hardware... And in YOUR case there are some REALLY GOOD editing software that are 100% FREE and there are also a TON of royalty free music choices too. You don't NEED a super high end camera, lighting setup, or even a dedicated recording space either...
I honestly get the feeling that you don't even care much about that benefit anymore tho. You just don't seem to have your heart in this anymore either. You haven't seemed to enjoy doing your videos for a LONG TIME now. You've been coming off like it's a burden to be on camera TBH... BUT when you were at CES (I THINK it was CES.... I really can't remember... but it was the last big gathering of tech youtubers before Computex) you seemed to REALLY ENJOY IT!! I watched ALL of YOUR coverage because it was like I was watching a new person mixed in with that same grumpy attitude that I is just who you are lol (not in a bad way or anything.... I think the right word for your attitude would be 'unimpressed' LOL :D )
Anyway... I hate to see that what started out as something you probably were SO EXCITED to do... to become a 'youtuber' and a 'reviewer'.... (I haven't been subbed for very long.. maybe 2 years now 🤷♂ but it sure wasn't from the beginning) ...and for UA-cam to allow THEIR HALF-ASSED ATTEMPT at helping channels grow and EARN A LIVING to SHATTER GROWN CHANNELS INTO ASHES like this.... well it's just 🐂💩!!! If you could earn decent money just by making YOUR videos the way YOU want and not having to make WHAT THE ALGO SAYS TO MAKE...that's just TOTALLY BACKWARDS AND WRONG... and you stepping away is a direct result of that.... it's a damn shame!!
Well... I wish it didn't have to be this way..... maybe you'll upload again one day, even just to say 'hi' ... and HOPEFULLY with a SMILE on your face ... I know I'll still be subbed, no reason to leave now
I hope you do well, and you can ENJOY WHATS LEFT OF LIFE... that's all we can do (before the Sun goes micronova and end life as we know it :/ ) - BYE FOR NOW
US Old guys are fallen fast on YT ... Sad to see you GO Brian But I get it, Elrich has been dealing with the same issues for years on his channel Tech of Tomorrow !!! Go Build some RC cars and Film the shit who Knows ....one day your passion might re surface and if so we are here BUD !!! 🙏👉✝💯👏👍🏴☠🐊🌴🤠🍻 Cow}:-o)
Hi mate I used to have a tiny UA-cam channel (wasn't about subscribers but about education on BEVs, since covid and moving home I haven't restarted my channel mainly because the vehicles are going mainstream and because having the channel actually hindered my ownership of my vehicle. The channel actually made things worse in my opinion so haven't restarted it with a new bev.Cheers and all the best. Ps with the state of the pc industry right now I would give it a huge miss.
Sucks to see you leave UA-cam, Brian. Your videos spent so much time in the mellow, informative space, and they were a breath of fresh air in a medium that's kind of become plagued by content like, "WATCH ME BUILD A PC WITH MY MOUTH WHILE DOING A HANDSTAND!"
But I'm glad you're stepping back and focusing on the things that matter most to you. Thanks for all the content and knowledge, and I hope to occasionally see a short of an R/C car being jumped through flaming hula hoops or something similarly epic.
First video of yours that I saw was the NZXT Manta build as I loved the case and your color choice for it peaked my interest. Shortly after I spent a few years recovering from a terrible medical incident so while I was bed ridden I watched all these custom build videos on youtube including yours; and they always kept that drive in me to try something new with PC hardware when I would feel better. Back in 2019 I finally got the chance and modded a Phanteks Shift with a dremel and even a waterjet cutter from some shop in town to cut out a hole and fan mount on the rear plate and some vents on the front plate for better airflow (also dremel the SSD tray out to fit the fan to the rear panel.
Seriously though thank you for all the work you put in for us, tech youtubing is no easy task and doing it this long definitely takes a huge toll. We all understand and wish you the best in the future, and again thank you for the many great years!
I only discovered you recently but wanted to wish you and your family the best. There is 1000% nothing for free, that's the biggest misconception and time can never be replaced.
I am 55 Sir so I totally get it. Enjoyed much of your content and FYI I've struggled myself trying to get back to "real life" in that, even if my wife and I go out for dinner or to some destination I often leave the devices at home to avoid distraction and live in the moment and enjoy what's in front of me more, enjoy my company more etc. along with some unfortunate health issues of late adding to mental stress and anxiety I am trying mor and more to just enjoy and appreciate simpler things in life and yes it is true, a large percentage who grew up with tablets, devices, social media definitely have a harder time grasping these concepts. I say this as someone who LOVES tech and has tinkered and experimented and modded since before the Commodore 64 debuted, but I DO miss simpler times more and more as I get older, oh don't get me wrong, I am far from the old man screams at clouds stage so far as I could not imagine life without modern conveniences and internet etc but at the same time I am admitting I am addicted to much of it and the only one that can change this in the end is me, oh and believe me I am well aware of the irony as I share this ON UA-cam but eh, I figure maybe some will read this and maybe see some similarities with themselves and maybe see they are not the only ones having these thoughts or reflecting on such things. So thanks again, good luck in all your endeavors and I hope you find the fulfillment and balance you are looking for.
Much respect.
Health, family should always be priority. Especially over some YT channel & or tech gizmos.
Thank you for your content.
Kdenlive: Can't edit this? really?
Me: totally understandable move on your part. Enjoy yourself with what you do.
Sad to see you go buddy. Really enjoyed your content and I was wondering why I hadn't seen a video from you for a long time. I understand how hard YT can be I have my small channel and its very frustrating the time I put in to sometimes get nothing out of it, as well as working a 60 hour per week full time career as an engineer. I've thought about giving it up too but I do still enjoy it just not all the time.
Hope you find your balance and enjoy your free yime. Hopefully will see you again in the future.
I've been an infrequent watcher, but always enjoyed your authenticity and enthusiasm for the community. Best wishes BPS!
Dude, be you, reclame your happiness! Enjoy your life! God Bless, I wish you health and happiness :)
Thanks man for everything. I really enjoyed your channel. Good luck with your future endeavors!!
You realize you're getting older when a decent number of the smaller youtubers you subbed to as a teenager are leaving the platform 😅
I can't imagine working on weekends tbh, that's tough.
Good luck to you and take care.
It's a shame that your channel wasn't bigger. You always had great content. Even with your collabs with Gamers Nexus couldn't push channel further.... that sucks. But your reasons for stepping away are valid and you will be missed.
I was hoping it was your typical click-bait goodbye where you change your channels name to your actual name, but I am sadden to see that it is not the case. Good luck with life and your future projects. You'll be missed and thank you for all the content your have enlightened us with.
Thank you so much for the ride....much appreciated. Best wishes on the next adventure! Thank you again sir, cheers!
Thank you for your content, Thank you for your send off and Thank you for being you. I have enjoyed your channel and you will be missed; now go enjoy life and the Family!!!!❤❤
Your story hit a note with me too, I have tried for three years to build a Tech UA-cam channel and it's far harder then people think it will be. If you do this part time then it eats into your weekends when you should be resting, recovering and spend time with family and friends from your work week. If you're not getting what you want out of it then sometimes it's best to move away and close that chapter of your life., it's just a shame that UA-cam is all about the numbers but I guess a business is the same to a degree too, if the numbers don't add up then you haven't got a business. Hope you can enjoy your life away from UA-cam, all the best.
Always liked to watch your video's,.... but you do you man. Balance in your mind is more important then balance in your pocket. All the best.
I have never followed you, and I do not follow a single person on social media unless they are a IRL f2f actual friend, but I previously have taken some quick glances at your videos, and this video is one of the few talking-head videos that I actually watched through to completion (I still have never fully watched a single video from start to finish made by Linus Tech Tips and all the other talking bobbleheads on social media). It sounds like you have reached an enlightened epiphany about social media, so congrats on realizing just how much time and thousands of precious hours of their lives that people waste on social media, either watching content, creating content, trying to "go viral", or trying to be an "influencer"!!!!
With myself being a child of the 1980s and 1990s, it was awesome to go to a concert back then and totally be in the present moment, enjoying a concert without looking across a sea of glowing cellphone screens. Nowadays, many people do not fully experience a concert because they are too busy recording, livestreaming, and taking selfies. When my wife and I go to restaurants, we actually stare into each other's eyes and have very interesting conversations (we've been married for 18+ years now and still keep things very spicy ;-) , while many other tables next to us have a guy and girl both staring at their cellphones and not talking (booooorrrring!).
I have honestly never been "influenced" by a single sycophantic influencer; "influencers"" are really nothing but modern-day shills. I tell people that if they really want to make smart purchasing decisions, they should learn to do cost-benefit analysis, prioritizing their need, wants, must-haves, nice-to-haves, and deal-breakers. They should buy products with the intent of *NEVER* showing off their purchases on social media. They should also not follow a single so-called "influencer" shill (a total oxy-moron imho). If you can reduce ego, avoid the need to brag about your purchases on social media, and ignore *ALL* influencer shills, your purchasing decisions instantly become a million times smarter. And you also free up countless thousands of hours of your life due to not vlogging, livestreaming, creating videos, and not watching all the fake influencer shills pimping products on social media.
So enjoy your life to the fullest extent now that you have broken your addiction to social media! Social media disorders are a real class of modern-day mental health disorder.
A lot of Creators are feeling this way right now, especially in the tech space. I really feel for you, its hard to hear as a tiny creator myself, but i do have days where I feel like this, it's a chappy landscape right now and there really isn't anything exciting, I mean really exciting that normal people can get hold of. Unless you have millions of subs and views per video, no one seems to care. Its such a shame.
You do what is good for you, you owe us nothing, I will miss your videos and the occasional rants about tech, you claim your life, visit us when you feel it's right, don't feel the need to edit a video, just turn the camera on and leave it, no intro, keep it simple as I value you visiting us instead of thinking about the effort editing the video then ditching the idea!
Keep it simple and I wish you all the best, with love from Libya.
Yeah, I get it. Ran a company on a knife edge of profitability (with employees) for 7 years and eventually had to call it quits. Best decision of my life. All the best to you!!! Enjoy those weekends! (PCs can be a hobby again.)
Brian, firstly thank you for the years of enjoyment and interactions 🥰👍.
Secondly, you need to do what’s best for you and your family and they should always come first 🥰😇.
Thirdly, when you’re a sole business owner, people don’t realise how much work it takes to keep the lights on in your business and your own home and the toll it takes on family time so I applaud you for taking the right step in focusing on what’s really important 🥰😇👍.
Take care of yourself, your family and enjoy life 🥹🥳🥳🥳.
It’s sad to see you leave us, but that is part of life and if by chance you do post anything in the future, we’ll all be here to see what you’ve been up to 🥰🥰
120k plus subs youtube makes good money id give anything to have 100k plus subs while making good money
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. I appreciate that. Take a break, drop us a video when you want to. Make it fun for you and your family. Thanks.
Loved your content brain. Loved your community too. My 3900xt is from a deal made in your discord.
Glad you're getting time to focus on yourself and your family though.
Sorry to see you go. maybe in your free time learn OSS tools and see if you can break your dependence on adobe because I think you not making videos EVER again kind of thing would be a loss, I for one will stay subscribed to you. I liked your full AMD build issues video because it the difficulties of going FULL AMD and the problems that they bring. I experienced the same kind of issues with full AMD builds for non gaming workstation and server builds almost 20 years ago. The fan girls just don't understand the areas that AMD is lacking in. You should have ran a mining rig on the side 😉
Love ya buddy. Enjoyed watching your vids throughout the past few years. Wholeheartedly agree with your statement regarding experiences and being in the moment. Best of luck to ya in the future!
Thanks for your time. Loved what you did. Take it easy... Maybe do some live gaming streams just for giggles?
If you look at all of tech UA-cam everything outside of negative videos hating on current pricing is trending downwards. People simply can't afford hardware/have completely lost interest in it due to the economic situation as well as the corporate greed of hardware companies (mainly Nvidia). It's tough. Best of luck, man!
I fully understand your decision Brian. Family and mental health comes first. Please enjoy and live your life and don't feel guilty about UA-cam vids. 😎
Well, I'll miss ya, and that 2007 system was probably my favorite build you've done, but I hope you still keep going.
I can respect your decision, and it's probably a wise one(i say this ofc, as a 58 y.o dude 😉 ). Good luck in all your endeavors, and enjoy your free time...and most of all..family time.
Good call. I think that the supply chain and then the video card companies have robbed much of the joy from PC enthusiast section of UA-cam, and thus the lower numbers.
Take a long break Brian, recover and only do this for fun. Hope to see u XOC RTX5090Ti with SteveGN in the future 😂
Thank you for the entertaining times.
Take care Brian. In case you decide to come back we will be here waiting.
Again thank you for the videos you've made.
Thank you for all the amazing news and information that you've provided to the PC community!
Thanks for the content mate. You need to do what's best for you and your family. As someone moving from PC to console gaming, priced out of the PC gaming market sadly, I can appreciate the difficulty of hanging up your hat from something you've dedicated so much time and effort into. As an older bloke myself (50), I certainly get not needing to document every waking moment. All the best Brian, and thanks again for the content you've provided.
Dam! I am going to miss you man. One of the few Tech UA-camrs close to my age. But I understand your decision, (I am a father as well). All and only best wishes for you!
Btw, I totally agree with you on experiencing life without recording everything. When I am on vacation, I will take the odd photo if I see something really beautiful or unique. But I generally put the camera and phone away and enjoy everything with my own eyes and ears.
Thank you for one of your reviews, especially on zotac 1070ti, help me to decide on my build years ago. Really appreciate it.
Hey, Brian. Thanks so much for all your hard work creating content for us all these years. It's sad to see you go but completely understandable. Channels your size were the ones hit the hardest by youtube's policy changes the past few years. Anyone in that 100k to 300k sub range before 2020 has been devastated. Almost eveyone with your size of channel has left active use of the youtube platform since growth completely stalled or regressed regardless of content output. Project Baron is still my favorite Caselabs SMA8 build and it's a nice video series to rewatch even though it ended in a case of explosive diarrhea of coolant spew. Definitely keep the channel up so you at least hopefully get some residual income from it.
Brian, sorry to see you go, but I wish you the best! I enjoyed your content and live streams when I was able to catch them. Thank you for your time and effort. I wish you peace, happiness, and prosperity in your future endeavors. Cheers! 🍻
