Thanks for being the only creator that consistently focuses on budget builds

Builds like this are great for kids... in a good way. I put together an optiplex case swap with a i5-3570, 1050ti, and 16gb DDR3 1333mhz for my 8 year old daughter. She was OVER THE MOON when I gave it to her. It plays all her favorite games, the RGB fans look cool to her, and most importantly... she now has a PC like mom and dad do. And for the games she plays, it'll hold up for years.

We just beat the Co-Op Campaign(?) of Portal 2 together, and we had so much fun playing it.

My man got the Ronald Mcdonald happy meal Motherboard

This is the EXACT build ive been planning to build for a few weeks, same listings and everything

This channel is just satisfying to watch. Something about the calm vibe.

OMG your kitty is gorgeous!!! Thanks for this video. It's nice to know it's possible to game for around $200

[LiviChai]

Thank you for making videos like this. Since I am very much broke and my half year old new gaming laptop died and fixing would cost me so much money (cannot claim warranty due to laws in my country). I have been looking into other options, your videos are great. I think, I might be able to make PC for price, that is cheaper than fixing the cursed laptop.

I feel like build from 0-800 are the best and most realistic, like if you think about it most people aren't gonna spend more unless if they specifically are looking for a component that's expensive for some purpose like streaming, video editing or something

Iceberg Tech posted a video earlier today where he built a £200 ($254 USD) PC with mostly used parts consisting of an RX 5500, Xeon E5-2680 V3 CPU and dual channel 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and he was getting 95 FPS on Fortnite at 1080p Low, 61 FPS on Cyberpunk at 1080p Low and 67 FPS on Red Dead 2 at 1080p "DF Console Equivalent settings".

For $200, used is definitely the way to go. It's crazy to me when uninformed console people act like you have to spend $1, 500+ just to get a half decent PC. No, $200 isn't gonna get you super far, but it will do more than what a lot of people think it can do.

Solid video. Clear, concise, and well done. I like low end to mid range most.

[MMillerPCs]

Nice little build! I have been wanting to try the whole AliExpress thing, but I have not gotten around to it.

[MrCD-xvjj]

I think I might build this just to get some experience. Thanks for the video 😊

[FluffyPuppyKasey]

I've got a pretty monstrous system (7950X3D, 128GB of RAM, RX 7900XTX + RTX 4090 passed through to a Windows VM), but I do still like watching budget builds like this a lot. Might pick something like this up to use as a server or something

[shanemcknight]

Great budget build! I have seen the Zeon board combo kits used a little. Be interesting to see how much performance you could get from these kits. Enjoyed the vid!

[pbjames]

Very clean build considering the parts you used!!

[KingdomRepublic]

Dude i can't believe you made it possible! Not only did you built it for 217$ but actually made it look good!

My best was 350$ anything under that price wasn't possible for gaming so kudos to you 👏

[Craxler]

Love these series, I would love how you would progress a budget pc like this after saving up another 100-200$ as it would bring good examples how to go about it for someone who has a working well enough pc, but would like to play a newer game or at higher quality :) Cheers

Video popped up in a search. I’ll probably follow this build as it’s pretty much exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks for the great video! How do you only have 15k subscribers?! You’re killing it man.

[tijolo]

I already have a pc but these videos are really entertaining, good job

Since everyone's asking, I wanted to ask too - should I get a GPU for myself or do an internals overhaul for better future-proofing?
