I Bought A $350 GAMING SETUP In A Box From Amazon.com

The gashes are just there to show you the sheer durability of the items

Honestly, for $300 and much better specs than I was expecting, not the WORST deal out there.

[nova]

If I had this as a 12 year old, I would've felt like an absolute baller.
This is definitely a viable "Buying a gaming setup for my child" kit 4 newbs.

$300, full system, monitor, KB, mouse.... Although my personal standards are too high to use this setup myself, this is absolutely wonderful for a child's PC. I can't fault it, it's a pretty solid deal. I just hope they listed the PC as "used, refurbished".

[Baligante]

Not only is it a 750Ti, it's a 4gb one! How thoroughly fancy.

[ZyMaverick]

This is the first time it hasn't been a scam and actually was put together by someone who knows their budget hardware well enough to know which old hardware kicks ass and which is ass.

I was so impressed

[Varmint]

I am shocked that you got an actual GPU, not a display adaptor, what is basically a legendary CPU for its time, and TWO STICKS OF RAM in that system. Monitor quirks and cheap e-waste peripherals aside, this is one of the best value gaming setups in a box I've ever seen.

[GuruCS]

After hearing the specs, that monstrosity is actually a solid emulation box 😮

[Agent_Alpha_SLV]

Im very impressed that they actually managed to pull that off for 300 bucks, the gaming performance is not at all unplayable, this is a pretty banging deal for someone only has that much budget

[Lolwutfordawin]

I've got to say, this is a surprisingly good deal. You get everything you need with a reasonable collection of parts (aside of the crap monitor..)
A good system to give your kid if you don't have something better to throw a 1660 or whatever in

[triplehitangrylord]

Ran my i72600k, 16 gigs of ram and gtx 1660 ti up until 2022. That setup ran cyberpunk 2077 1080p max settings except screen space reflections (set to high) and still got between 30-40 fps. No ray tracing, and no dlss, fsr.

8:43 "everybody's favorite digital daycare" 😂😂😂

[stoneymahoney]

10:23 I'm not sure what's more valuable - the entire gaming setup or the motherboard that came in the box Dawid is casually propping the monitor up with... probably pretty close!

[treelineresearch]

I've never thought about covering a Dell SFF with skateboard grip tape but now I know approximately how it would look.

[RobertFixit]

Can't lie the mini RGB in the SFF optiplex does impress!

Side note, using the Motherboard box as a stand for the monitor is the definition of a true gamer!

[ej_tech]

The tower performed surprisingly well. I would skip the e-waste peripherals and then grab wired Logitech or Dell stuff, as well as a used IPS monitor that came from an office or something.

[HD]

That click you get from high wattage power supplies is to die for. I have an rm1000 and the click from turning it on is just so satisfying. It feels like your powering up something way more powerful than it actually is.

[Rizer]

No way this man won a game that easy, he's holding back his true gamer skills on us.

[benzwt]

I am really impressed what you can get for 350$. For that price, its definitely a W. There is even a monitor, and a setup included in that price. I am speechless 🤣

[Kachna]

After the intro my body was fully prepared to watch a notebook unboxing. And no, it's not a strange way to say it...
