This HALF-BAKED Gaming PC Needs a Makeover! - Gear Up S3:E4

Welcome to our Gear Up series! In this episode, we meet with Christopher at the Charlotte, NC Micro Center to upgrade his old gaming PC! He's currently rockin' an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080. Let's see what budget he wins and how he spends it!

There's a slight sync issue at the end of this video. No, you aren't going crazy 😅 Only two episodes of Gear Up Season 3 remain! Thanks a ton for the continued support on these. We love filming them, revamping rigs, and meeting folks as passionate about tech as we are!

[stivesyy]

This episode had it all 😂
Nice budget, guy knew what he wanted, used the budget very well imo, random shopper gift card surprise and a painfully awkward closing clip 😂
Keep up the good work, man!!

I really like this guy, he was looking at the big picture and not just throwing everything into a beefy GPU. Someone who actually picks their GPU based on their use-case instead of bragging rights is alright in my book.

[Ladioz]

Very nice guest Greg! He was humble and knew exactly what he wanted. Spoke politely

[adamball]

Chris's giggle through the video made this one so good 😂

These Micro Center stores are fantastic! as a local from the netherlands in Europe we do not have stores likes these. Parts of course can be bought online. But the amount of parts these micro center stores haven is amazing...

I love this series!

For the next season, you should consider adding a benchmark of some sort to it, before and after. Just to show the improvement in their selections etc, it would be awesome to see that raw info. That's what I always miss at the end is seeing an actual numbers improvement, just a tiny bit of data.

I'll watch either way, love it!

Bro even upgraded his walking ability at the end.

You know who doesn't need a makeover? Greg Salazar. The Salazar Style is fire!

[prrocker]

The jump he got from going from a 1080 which still holds its own all things considered to a 7900 GRE is nuts not to mention he still has some wiggle room for a cpu upgrade in the future to an X3d cpu if he really wants to get the most out of AM4

[Cutie_Yuri]

Been watching this series since the beginning! Former Micro Center employee, always awesome to see Greg and Micro Center do these upgrades for the people who need it. Keep the series going!

I love this series, wish we had Micro Center in Europe. Can't wait for new episodes, thank you Greg!

[marcussigmon]

Love to see it when people are appreciative. His laugh was genuine and could feel he was enjoying the process. And giving away the gift card. Love the content. Keep it coming

[lub_fps]

That dude was so genuine, and his laugh is hilarious 🤣

[NeaJEDI]

This is my favorite YouTube (creator) series by far.

[ameersyazly]

dude seems like a chill person irl. so happy he get the chance to gear up his rig and he knows what he's upgrading

[thseed]

Be happy you don't live near a Microcenter. Mine is 20 minutes away and I end up down there almost every time I see one of these videos 🤣

FYI, I've purchased that same exact ASUS TUF power supply unit for my 4080super and I've had no issues with it delivering on the wattage and power. However, it is LOUD. Unlike every other fan in my pc, the power supply fan ramps HARD. Even in games like cyberpunk, my cpu and case fans spin around 900-1000rpm, the gpu fans spin at 1100, but the psu fan hits 1800rpm. Its by far the nosiest fan and it stands out in the noise profile of the entire pc.

Giving that random dude a $50 gift card was pretty wholesome after helping someone upgrade already.

This season 3 is going very well, Keep up the good work Greg the ending was epic.
