Hey everyone, just a quick, friendly reminder that bots are bad, Mkay? We run TheoJoe's bot destroyer 9000 several times a day to try and clear them out, but they just keep popping up. Unless the comment is from @DawidDoesTechStuff YT Account, it is not from me. I am giving away the Custom PC to a viewer through Gleam - the winner will be drawn next week Wednesday, and the winner will not have to pay for shipping or import duties. Please don't give any personal information or money away to anyone on the internet willy-nilly. P.S. I DO NOT HAVE TELEGRAM.

What a nice video on building PCs! I would also add that with building your own PC, you are able to shop around for the best prices for each individual parts, and also pick the best makers for each component, rather than being restricted to one brand and having little control over what you are getting aside from the basic specs. After all, the prebuild system had to cheap out somewhere to make up for the poor margins on the core components like CPU and GPU.

[@enntense]

[@matasa7463]

You can, it's easy. The hard part is finding what parts to pick out, because of quality, pricing, compatibility, and performance metrics. But once you have a parts list, the building part is just following a build guide. I build multiple PCs now, have started off with nothing but online tutorials.

The custom was so much nicer than the pre-built. Definitely like the quality of the Be Quiet products! The noise level of the custom system was awesome!

[@justsumguy2u]

I think the prebuilt was the winner, because it gave almost the same performance without the effort of building. I've been saying for awhile now that the margin of performance between prebuilts and custom pc's is getting thinner and thinner every year, and I think this is a good example

[@linkkevin11]

But prebuilt over time will last you less, since the GPU is running in such high temps that decreases lifetime. Also, that’s temps of a low temp weather. In summer you’ll see that GPU throttling in performance due to the high temps. The prebuilt is also limited in how much you can upgrade since it’s so small when compared to the BeQuiet it can be upgradable to a bigger variety of GPUs.

[@pcgenerationstore]

If you want a prebuilt, get a used pc. Sometimes you can find really good deals, like my luckiest find was $350 usd for an i7 11700kf, 3060 ti cyberpowerpc. It was used for like 3-7 months. Too many people spend money on something, and give up on it when they realize they dont want it anymore. Also, the most expensive part of any build nowadays is the gpu. It wouldn't hurt to have your whole build be new, but the gpu used. Even if it was mined, its still good and you'd be saving a good amount of cash

It was for a 2nd system just to play with and for when grandkids visit. I didn't order a case and wasn't planning on getting one yet, but changed my mind and grabbed the cheapest one they had without researching it. It is the Monarch X1 mid-tower ATX case and what a PITA to build in!! There was no room on the backside to manage cables and still put the back panel on. It came with 4 RGB fans that were powered by a molex connector, thus the RGB was not addressable, nor could you change the fan speed. I got the case to work, but it was not a fun build.

I have to admit, I didn't expect the performance to be so close as far as frame rate is concerned. The lower temps and noise pollution are factors to the positive that should not be overlooked. Thanks for putting in the work Dawid.

I liked this video before I even started watching it, as I know it's gonna be entertaining, educational and great quality. 👍

That Be quiet case looks very practical. I think it's the first I see one with a removable panel for cable placement near the motherboard. I have the same sweaty fingers as Dawid, so I would love to try to build a system with that case! Also have to mention the clear difference in quality between the two PSUs. I don't think the Be Quiet PSU will start a fire just by looking at it the wrong way... Even if it was installed in the MSI Crap-E-Tron edition casing, it would still have a better average life expectation than the "Insert generic name" PSU that is barely powering the MSI tower.

My pc is currently in housed in a 500DX, lovely case! I spraypainted the black parts of it gold, with the few inlaid details (bequiet logo on top and front io) handpainted in a vivid turquoise. Looks really fancy! I wanted to add some turquoise decals as well but couldn't decide on a design. Maybe I'll get to it when I eventually take it apart to upgrade something ^^

Nice work, Dawid. I'd definitely go for the home-built system. There's just something about gaming on a PC that has some of your own blood, sweat and often tears embedded into the components.

What a great video. You did a great job on the custom pc. I wish I had the money to build one just like it. Keep up the great work.

Always a pleasure watching you build a pc, Dawid! That Be Cool build is nice. 😎

I remember my first (and only) machine I built and the pink stuff covering the fan came off when I took the plastic cover off, so I rang the place where I bought it from (it was miles away from where I lived) and they said "whatever you do, don't turn it on, get another fan with the stuff on because it keeps the processor cool" and so I did and to this day, the machine still works perfectly well (although I've not tried it in a couple of years now) but I loved the machine. Ah those were the days... :)
