Love the pacing. Your direct communication, seemingly seeking and seeing the audience. The way you genuinely seem to care about the hobby and us. Kudos.

[Tin-mc]

its great for students like me, going to uni and i need a PC. this computer works pretty nice for the price

[ArkhamKnyght]

Just yesterday I built a very similar build for about $850 USD (with tax). I opted for the 9600x because it was only $20 more ($240 vs $220) same cooler, found a screaming deal on a gigabyte B650 Eagle AX ($140), same b570 GPU ($230), I found a great deal on corsair vengeance 6000 32 GB ($94) and a corsair 650 PSU ($74), and I found a good looking Raidmax case for $64.

I really admire the amount of times you feature Apex Legends. As much as it pains me it is a good game to showcase a budget build.

[yerachmielb]

I just got my B570. Since gaming isn't a priority for me, this thing should last me a LONG time

[yodamasterx]

You never even went over the cost? How are u calling this a budget build video then never talk about the actual budget??

[diablodima]

Yeah, it's the first time I am not complaining there's no Runescape 3 in 4k all ultra benchmarks, since it's a budget build. Waiting for a 5090 build to see some of that juicy yew woodcutting in glorious 60fps!

[natjimoEU]

Performance to power consumption, the B570 is actually very power efficient.

[LowLoco]

12:52 bro! 😂😂 i was like, "wtf is he throwing up?!" Cause I thought it was something fragile but it was just screws lmao my heart stopped a second there

[Solo_ARC]

I just bought an ONIX ODISSEY ARC B570... seems like I made a good choice! (hopefully). I got an MSI 1080P monitor so, I'm going to be playing at 1080P as I've been doing so for the past decade on laptops/phones xD.
I got an i5 12400f, Asrock H670M RS PRO M-ATX, 32GB RAM ddr4, the ARC B570, MSI 650BN as well! and 1TB MP44L teamgroup nvme ssd. I think it's going to be enough for me, I'm still lacking a case and an UPS cuz I'm broke as a joke, but that's for the future :D
Building a PC in Dominican Republic is an economic nightmare :'), my first gaming PC in 28 years so, wish me luck~

The ultimate budget gaming PC build for 2025! Great insights and benchmarks.

[AnthonyGuns]

Can you please do a best set up for MSFS 2024. Like what you need bare minimum and one ideal best set up. Also what prebuilt PCs you would recommend. Thank you and keep up the great work.

[NextGen_Rigs]

Awesome build! 🙌 The Intel Arc B570 and Ryzen 7600 make for a killer combo in the budget gaming space. Really like how you’ve packed in solid performance without breaking the bank. Curious about your benchmarks with this setup—what kind of FPS are you hitting in some of the latest titles? Keep up the great work!

[PlasmaOscillations]

That case is huge, ahh the good ole days of full atx towers with like 6 bays at the top

[MaximusYeet]

I always recommend building your own PC. Its rewarding and feels great once you've got the system up and running. But if you don't wanna deal with the possibility of defective parts, damaging pins on the motherboard, or static damage, these days prebuilts are a better value than ever especially the budget prebuilts under $1k. LightForge PCs has a $600 prebuilt with an i7 CPU, RTX 2060 graphics card, and 16GBs of DDR4 RAM, and for $600 its got a ton of performance potential.

[tonac]

Well the power consumption is great. When I compare it with my 3080ti that pulls 380W sometimes...it hurts 😀

[christianspain]

Great video, thank you. I am doing research now to try and build a gaming PC on a budget. My current rig is over 10 years old so I am overdue to build a new one!

[overexcitedrx]

I'm so happy that I went with the less annoying AMD Ryzen Gigabyte X870E for my new build. I'd rather wait 8 years and save for a new build than go with a budget build.

[crazytacticool]

Would really love to see you talk through some PC/Home theatre stuff, specifically whether you can use your PC connected to an Audio Visual Receiver for Dolby Atmos combined with high end gaming (1440p minimum, possibly 4k 120hz?).
Would be interesting to see highest frames and resolution you can get with this, along with any input lag involved.

Pc is where the heart is for gaming, I’m looking to get a new gaming pc or a console after being out of the game for 14 years. Looking at what my best options are for audio solutions/ compatibility.
