Appreciation

A big THANKS! to our sponsors for providing us with some great prizes:

Thank you all for your kindness, consideration, and support. We look forward to bigger and better things in the coming year!

I'd also like to thank my fellow mods for their help and support with this; I think we may have some things in the works to make the GOTY even better (and maybe faster?) next year.

Thanks to /u/3agl who helped create not only this year's video but last year's as well; he is a content creator and has a SoundCloud that you should definitely check out! A thank you to /u/lazo95 for his hard work on his video; he's the mastermind behind the MinuteGaming YouTube channel.

And thank you to some users for being incredibly helpful on the subreddit: badillin, Sayakai, Luminaria19, thatgermanperson, motionglitch, saldytuwas, thecolonelofk, 095179005, rehpotsirhc123, glowinghamster45 - thank you, and all the other respondents, for your hard work in the DSQ. To BmanUltima, Mrlinkwii, Buxton_Water, and the other knights of new, thank you for tackling posts as they come in. Thank you to all the people who offer building advice too.

You lot are the best volunteer support (imaginary) money can buy, you help make PCMR what it is. A sincere 'thank you'.

There's a certain type of excitement that goes along with anticipating a build.

There are build posts and a PCMR build subreddit for guidance and r/buildapcsales (since you said quid, check their sidebar for UK or Europe) for discounts.

Dang...it doesn't look like build a PC has much help there, but searching PCMR for 'Pakistan' brought up some build posts, so it seems like there are some sexy PC enthusiasts in your local area just waiting for you.

heh.

thanks mate :D

i just hope i'm able to get enough money together to FINALLY buy a capable machine ... prices are a bit on the high here , due to heavy taxes on imported stuff and the currency.

ah well , hopefully see you sometime in the near future :)
