I Use ONLY 'Amazon's Choice' Crap To Upgrade My Gaming PC...

I decide to use Amazon Choice recommendations ONLY when upgrading the Cheapest Amazon PC I built last week!

Here are the "Amazon's Choice" product links from the products in the video (Affiliate)

Play some Minecraft on the Dawid Does Minecraft server courtesy of our friends at Linode!
It works on Java version 1.19.3

As Linus pointed out, it’s strange that Amazon does not recommend their own Amazon Basics CPU cooler.

*"Amazon's Choice"* is determined by an AI algorithm of everything from number of product returns to number of product interactions (i.e. Q+A, average review length, etc). This is why Amazon's Choice is not always the highest rated item. Amazon isn't trying to find the _best_ performing item in a category, they're trying to find the item most customers will accept and be content with.

Ironically enough, the Peerless Assassin is actually one of the best air coolers in this price range. Gamers Nexus put it through its paces with their test and it came pretty close to matching the Noctua NH-D15 in terms of cooling performance. I think it might be due to you not having used the second fan as well as using the stock CPU fan curves that caused the excess noise in the system.

"A hemorrhoid on taco night" made me laugh way more than it should have. Love your work Dawid.

Wait. Looking back. 499 for a 3060 is absolute robbery

the crucial p3 is actually an amazing choice; 45$ for a 1TB 3500MB/s Drive is incredible. I personally recommend the p3 plus, but you can’t go wrong with either.

Gamers Nexus reviewed the cooler, Steve described it as “Ok”. That is very high praise for him 😂

I love how we went from upgrade number 3 straight to upgrade number 7

"Light up like a hemorrhoid on taco night."

You've still got it!

Love your content dawid, you deserve more recognition

Avoid Crucial if you're in Canada. If anything goes wrong, they'll ship you a replacement and you WILL get charged brokerage and duty. My SSD died and decided just to toss it as the fees would cost more than buying another (not Crucial) drive.

When CPU is weak, AMD GPU are always faster, ie, it has a hardware scheduler with less CPU overhead. This was tested on Hardware Unboxed.

I used some SYY thermal paste on my laptop about 2 years ago. Still going really well in terms of thermals. My only advice is that it's a bit thicker/denser than I'm used to so spreading is a bit difficult. I'd advise spreading it manually with the included tool on something like a laptop rather than just sending the screws home and sending it - it feels like it'd bend the board before spreading nicely

been using SSY 157 thermal paste for about a year now found it to be as good as anything branded plus its always in stock on amazon and I've been getting 8 grams for about 8 quid uk

"Light up like a hemorrhoid on taco night" really got me😂

[Serene-Scream]

I was surprised you had issues with the airgoo RGB strips. I’ve used them in at least a half a dozen systems with no problems.

The thermalright cooler is a really solid performer but as you pointed out there’s issues with RAM clearance.

Love your videos 👍👍

"... this thing is gonna light up like a hemoroid on taco night ..." had me rolling 😄

Peerless Assassin is a beastly cooler, up there with Noctua for a third of the price!

I used to have the same cpu cooler. Turns out, placing the fans as pull instead of push makes the cooler overall louder with a high-pitched noice. And putting both of them, managed to stay very quiet even with a 5800x with temps below 65° in a full load while gaming.
