5 Year Old PC Gets New Parts!

Title should say 5 year old case gets new parts

[RetroBerner]

Screw all that, find a used i7 to throw in there, get a more reliable PSU and blow the rest of the budget on a high end GPU. Job done, best bang per buck.

[Nazguloid]

I think you would see pretty similar numbers in games if you just replaced the Radeon GPU with the 1050Ti and left the 3570k.

[shivashrestha]

$550 for old system
$600 for upgrading
Why didn't you built entirely new system instead.🤐

[TechByMattB]

I probably would have just upgraded the gpu, power supply, and maybe the case.

[LTraje]

Why didn't you upgrade just the GPU or picked up a used I7 3770k cpu? Would have been cheaper since you wouldn't need to buy DDR4 RAM and a whole new platform.

[AtaeruCDX]

That's not an upgrade, that's just reusing the case and power supply for a new build.

[daviddacactus]

Add an i7-3770k and 1060 and call it day. Ryzen 5 with 16GB of ram makes no sense with a 1050Ti

[michaelkregnes]

9:13 on old PC it says "DDR4" I'm pretty sure it’s surposed to say "DDR3"

[rodrigo]

i would just upgrade the GPU, like 1060 cuz that i5 is good and 16gb ram is great and ram is not very cheap

[patrickptmonk]

More like "I build new pc in craigslist case"

[maurijn]

Honestely getting a gtx 1060 for ~300 bucks would have been better and faster in the tested bencmarks. This is not really upgrading a pc but just keeping the case and psu in my opinion. The cpu can definitly go for a few a few more years.

[drmjuae]

Thanks and sorry. Replacing everything and keeping only the case is not an upgrade!

[TechTunerLife]

No need to upgrade CPU, Motherboard and Rams. Power supply good enough. Overclock the CPU and Upgrade the GPU. Buy used cheap GTX 1060. That’s it. Best bang for your buck.

[bluedrew]

Thats not an upgrade, its literally a whole new pc

[redslate]

You swapped out the motherboard, CPU, *and* GPU... That's not an upgrade, that's a replacement.

[DaiAtlus]

...you're essentially building a new PC when you're replacing the mobo, CPU and ram... :/

[timlolxP]

Why not change the i5 to an i7 of the same Generation or even keep it, its not to bad... So with the 1600 you have to buy a new mobo and DDR4 wich is still way to expensive and when your on a budget that is just dumb, when you have 16gb of DDR3. Go with a 1060 or even 1070 with the budget of 600$.
You did not really upgrade a PC you build a new one except drives, shitty old power supply and the case. Thats not really how a pc upgrade works if you ask me...
Also the ram you are showing is DDR4 3200Mhz not 2400 as you said.

a little disapionting this video.

[jonasedvstuff]

0:47 a new upgrade after 4 years?!?!?

I'm still gaming on my I7 3th Gen and GTX 680 😅

[-eMpTy-]

Why not get a used 3770k, Seasonic Focus Plus 550w PSU, an SSD and a used GTX 980ti all in for ~$450?
