Boris here to show you how to build your own PC. The thermal paste substitute we have is mayonnaise.
Today we build a budget PC with a price point of under $500. There are some rules to the build. All components have to be new and from the store. Also no scavenging parts from old PCs. All components have to be available to buy in store. This way we get a very nice budget PC build that actually can run games.
Instead of thermal paste, we use mayonnaise to test if it is a suitable substitute. Imagine this: you build your new PC but run out of thermal paste. Run to shop but shop is closed. What you do? You of course use mayonnaise instead.
This custom budget PC is tested to play these games:
* Metro Exodus
* STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl
* Cyberpunk 2077
(wanted to test Doom Eternal too but disk was full)

Along with mayonnaise thermal paste, the vodka cooled PC that I have built before, they should make up a very powerful device with ultimate slav cooling solution. But that is something for another upcoming video.

Low budget PC builds are always fun to do, but always have to check that all parts are compatible with each other. Here is the full list of components along with details that make the $500 budget mayo PC run smooth.

Components:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.6GHz
Motherboard: Asrock A320M-HDV (falsely used Gigabyte A520MH before)
RAM: 8GB DDR4 G.Skill Aegis 3200MHz CL16
SSD: WD Green 240GB M.2
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1050Ti 4G GDDR5
Power supply: 450W Corsair CV450 80 Plus Bronze
Cooler: AMD Wraith Prism RGB M4
Thermal paste: Arctic MX-4
Mayonnaise: high quality stuff I found in fridge
Case fan: Deep Cool 120mm Blue
Case: Deep Cool Smarter mATX
Wi-Fi card: TP-Link 300Mbps ETL-WN881ND

Mayonnaise cooling is here to stay.

[huxh]

This is actually is a very good tutorial.

[Alex-txuv]

Most high tech buterbrod, I applaud you for the technological advancement

[Q-H-T]

The verge should have hired this guy to build their PC instead of the thermal paste dude

[natasorimusic]

Back then when you showed us your vodka cooling pc ur cable management was like not even there xD

[magrat]

the reason this works i think is because it is more conductive and it managed to fill in the little cracks in the metal enough but don't put too much might fry ur cpu and mother board

[chimeraguts]

Man Linus Tech Tips been real quiet since this dropped.

[abnormalhooovy]

I bet Linus is crying after seeing this

[afflejuice]

Everybody Gangsta until, one day Boris starts using thermal paste as mayonnaise

[mrgallbladder]

-Is this a cooking channel or a tech channel?
-Yes.

[MemeLrd]

Scientist's that put in year's of research in making improved thermal paste: Why are we still here, just to suffer?

[chaido]

[denyel]

“One can return to store to buy the correct CPU,
But one cannot return to buy forgotten thermal paste”
-Boris maybe

[templarhelmet]

one day boris won't own pc's, he'll own high-tec slavic cuisine that run stalker.

[johnfizzelo]

Honestly though, he did a better job than the Verge.
