You should start including the tax and shipping costs (from eBay, Mercari, etc.) to the final build costs at the end of the video. This will give a more real representation of the actual money spent on the build and the anticipated profit.

Great looking build! I like this Zalman case.

[haydenlopez]

I would actually recommend the Ryzen 5 2600 over the i3 10100 as It better fits the build and has less chance of bottlenecking. Thanks for the awesome video!

Just built my first white pc and I love it. White LED Corsair fans, white cooler, white case (O11 air mini) and white cable extensions 😁

[ABRelaxingSounds]

excellent budget build. you can also find many of these parts cheap on the marketplace to. Your budget builds are always great. Although there are cheaper options for cases out there as well. Overrall great video!

I just built a 300 dollar rig with a 2300x and this same 1060 6 gig, little 1080p console like beast

[DrZoomer]

Man that fan is almost not even white looking next to the case! Clean looking build though per usual

[jonathanwolf]

Thermalright Assassin X 120 SE, best budget tower cooler. ~20$ on Amazon looks SUPER CLEAN.

An i5 10400f would be better for a little more but it's still an amazing looking pc.
Good job!

Just found out about this case today while making yet another PC part list, this could be the case I choose if I go with a mATX motherboard!!!

[BREEZYM]

You really can't beat it for the price. This would be a nice build to give to my son for his birthday.

[ChristopherFartNickel]

Damn! the asus 1060 really does have some killer flipping profit margins! ps cant wait for your Halloween build! An idea I had was we could all build it together on your stream like you did with the $300 build a few months ago

[maltomeal]

I bought a 1060 6gb for $80 in Dec 2019... Glad they're coming back down.

[saucequatch]

You could have put the m.2 into the other slot for the heat sink to go on top of it. Amazing build tho

Talking about flipping PCs, I was able to flip a 430€ PC with a 1200af and a rx570 with a total profit of 280€

I think if you're building this yourself instead of spending more on the CPU you'd get more out of spending on the GPU. The 10100/105 is perfectly capable of running pretty much anything up to a 3060 or AMD equivalent without issue. I saw RX6600s being cleared out new last week at £220 inc VAT delivered for example, that would be brilliant in this build.

b560 board is a lot easier to over clock that ram. I use 11th gen boards for my 10th series chips. I have a 10400f with the ram running 3600mhz instead of 2666hz by using an xmp profile.

[michaelthompson]

Definitely a very impressively slick build for sub-$500 price point 🥰💪🤯😇👍.

[tenshi]

This is a great budget computer for It’s price, but Linus Tech Tip’s newest $500 gaming computer is on another level.

I did a 10100F (Amazon) with a B560 DS3H AC from Gigabyte (EBay (Big Mistake)) and 16GB of Silicon Power Turbine at 3200MHz (after bios update F6 speed was clocked to 2667 and option to change was locked. You could change on Bios F4) and a Silicon Power A60 512GB M.2 (amazon) I already had a RX 580 8GB. Replaces an AMD Athlon x4 860K on the FM2+ platform (My Second Intel build) Good part list Zach, but I prefer AMD CPU and graphics. Editing I would use NVidia (for CUDA acceleration) Edit: Forgot 802.11AC and Blue Tooth was required, and I wanted it built in.
