    Been a subscriber since you dropped your galax gtx 960 review.

I have to be honest I never could have thought that this channel would blow up this much, but I am glad it did and you and your team definitely deserve it. The quality of your content has gone up so much since I started following you that I dont just watch your videos because they are from a local guy but now I watch your videos because they are some of the best on the tube. This is only the start of much bigger things.
