A NEW Gaming PC build for the casual gamer.

[@tonkatoytruck]

Reminds me of my first AMD build in 2018 using a R5 2400G. APUs are a great solution, if you are on a tight budget but want the latest platform for future upgrades. Very sensible build, like many of your systems. Well done!

[@christopherturner9330]

Im not a Gamer, but its a great system to start on and develop your skills. Plus of course a great upgrade path. Really liked your build attitude and knowledge. Thank you for this production.

[@xanderkirkland3420]

I have pretty much this exact pc! I built it in August for $395 at Microcenter. The only difference is that I'm using a Ryzen 7600 instead of the 8600g because I intend to upgrade it with a gpu in the future and the 7600 is a better overall processor. Ive found that it's perfectly capable of playing games at low settings even without a sophisticated igpu like the 8000 series has.

[@xanderkirkland3420]

I should mention that I went for 16gb, 5600mhz cl36 (I think), as well as a cheap a620 msi board.

[@TrusteftTech]

@@xanderkirkland3420 So basically by "this exact pc" you mean "in no way this exact pc" lol. Happy gaming.

[@hasiv167]

Great build for someone who is getting started, adding a GPU in future and you're good to go for next 5-6 years.

[@FilthEffect]

That heat sink on the m.2 is massive 😮

[@TechLabUK]

It is huge, I did take it off to swap it around so the writing was the right way around and the thermal pads on it are better than some GPUs I have seen lol

[@TrusteftTech]

Good build. Good video. I really like the idea of the 8000 series for a PC.

[@Dingbat1967]

Good build. Have two of those cases still boxed. I think I need to build again.

[@CherryColaWizard]

APUs and integrated graphics have come a long way. A graphics card is still desireable, but if you don't have the money just yet for a mid-range card, the Ryzen APUs will be adequate for 1080p 60fps in most new games, and even better performance for older games.

[@Alpha-ms9nj]

I hope prices don't go up too much for new hardware in the coming months due to the imbecilic tariff situation coming to US soon. I'm stocked up on new/used parts in case. Those prices for that basic build are indeed a good value. I like that case too.

[@buildyourcomputer]

The last time electronics were excluded on the tariffs, I wouldn't think he'd do anything different than last time.(politicians so who knows though)

[@Loppy2u]

Deepcool on US sanctions list. Chinese Lenovo ( Motorola, IBM, Avigilon) sells to Russia doesn't get banned.

[@TRG_TheRantingGerman]

The 16MB L3 cache are not great for gaming. But I guess the APU is what holds the system back. A dedicated GPU, even the crappy RTX 3050 8GB for about 200 bucks would make this actually a system tapping into mid tier gaming performance (specifically with little cheats like the program Lossless Scaling and its frame generation capacity; it also has a new upscaler (SGSR) that works very much like DLSS, only it doesn't hit the quality of DLSS yet, but it's still fantastic).

[@jinty83]

I used the same MB with my 7500F and 7800XT build. Great little board.

[@billywindsock9597]

Very interesting build.

[@MnemonicCarrier]

The AMD iGPUs are quite amazing these days. I'd love to get an AMD APU to use for my Linux workstation, but I currently have a Ryzen 9 3900x which I'm gonna use for as long as I can (won't be getting rid of it while it still does everything I need to do). It's still plenty fast for my needs, and thanks to your "GPU cleaning" video, it's now whisper quiet again :)

[@TechLabUK]

They are getting very good, can't wait to try the latest ones in mini PCs and laptops, I am sure they will come to desktop soon also.

[@SpecBench]

whats the chances.. i just built a pc with the same mobo. picked up a 7500f and teamgroup t force delta 6000mhz cl30 ram off ali express for 187 pounds total. i then got this board for 140. i just sold my 5800x3d (RIP) For 300.. it only cost me 290 earlier in the year. switched to am5 ready for when 9800x3d is actually available in the uk without pre order.

[@BREEZYM6015]

What was your total build cost?

[@SpecBench]

@ so it wasn’t a brand new pc build ( I used my old case cooler GPU Psu etc. ) I basically just switched to am5 from am4!

[@fresco_dinero5155]

If u ever make this build, please add some type of cheap gpu. 5700xt can be found for around $100 and offers amazing performance

[@Connor-y3b]

1080ti's can be found for $150

[@fresco_dinero5155]

@ I stay away from nvidia but yeah there’s nvidia options too I guess

[@jordan-mn6yy]

That m.2 heatsink is funny big, i have a m.2 heatsink at half that thinckness with a little baby fan on there and its funny cause the temps on it are 1 degree higher than a heatsink without a fan but i keep it cause its cute

[@Midori_Ringo]

Most APU's nowadays mean there is absolutely 0 reason for cards like gt710 to ever be in a system. It also allows people to play games now while saving up for a better card, instead of buying stuff like an RX6400 which is a marginal improvement on APUs. It's a workable solution with limitations Also I will never understand why case manufacturers put a filter on what is typically the exhaust side of the case. It's not car emissions why do you want consumers to filter the exhaust? Filtration should be done on the intake ie point of ingress of dust particles.

[@Alpha-ms9nj]

You have a point there now that I think about it lol.

[@TechLabUK]

Absolutely, 100%.

[@buildyourcomputer]

cats sitting on top of case, dust gets in when computer is off?

[@Midori_Ringo]

@@buildyourcomputer Cat sitting on top of case makes exhaust pointless anyway. You've just blocked off the exhaust with a giant fur pillow stuffing the exhaust. You will have bigger problems than dust ie pet hair even with a filter. Even as someone who has 2 dogs they're not allowed into the the study where my pc and music gear is. Simply to minimize the amount of pet hair that gets in there. Clean your room once in a while, then you don't have dust everywhere. Also you will have a radiator and at the bare minimum fans and a metal grill. Guess what happens when you turn on the pc? The fans spin up and spit out the dust via the top that's sitting on them by nature of how the airflow is directed.

[@darthwiizius]

There are always use cases for low power consumption video adapters, not as a primary GPU though.

[@darioworrell3968]

Wouldn't you know it but im getting this exact cpu paired with an MSI Pro B-650P ATX motherboard and 16gigs of DDR5 ram. Ill look into getting a Graphics Card in the new year. Thinking about the Gigabyte radeon rx 7600 xt. Ive always been an intel person but my budget wouldnt allow me to get the 14th gen cpus. Now that ive seen this video im alot less sceptical with my choice.

[@darthwiizius]

Ryzen has been better for a while mate, AMD moved a step ahead of Intel when they dropped Zen2. I can't wait to see Intel break back though, Ryzen forced Intel to up their game and when AMD get cocky and lazy Intel will, sooner or later, return the favour. It's we the consumer that benefit from this type of competition.

[@Loppy2u]

Maybe the RX 7700XT will drop to that price soon.

[@TechLabUK]

That would be a perfect upgrade for a system like this later on.

[@konstantinlozev2272]

Would be good to try this with your GTX 1070ti that featured on your channel to compare

[@TechLabUK]

Would work a treat I would think.

[@darthwiizius]

It'd be quite good, modern games would be doable at 1080P60 with older to old games performing like champs.

[@BREEZYM6015]

I have an i7 8700k and GTX 1060 6GB. 😂

[@konstantinlozev2272]

@@darthwiizius I had GTX 1070s on all my 3 PCs at home at some point. Cyberpunk needed FSR3 at Medium to go above 60FPS. Slightly better, but similar in Horizon Zero Dawn. For Sub USD 100 they are great and will obliterate that measly integrated GPU any day. So I think a "casual" gamer who wants good upgrade path (which is the premise of this video), a Ryzen 7500f + GTX 1070 will be much more performant.

[@konstantinlozev2272]

@BREEZYM6015 I have a Pentium I 75Mhz, 64MB RAM, 2MB VRAM Laptop 🤪

[@eliascence]

can you please plug dedicated graphics card with at least GTX 1660 Super Thanks

[@supremeskorpion1863]

Can we see this build with a graphics card added.

[@TechLabUK]

Yep, working on it :)

[@blakegriplingph]

Those prominent button cell battery warnings tho 💀

[@MrSamadolfo]

as an alternative you can pickup a brand new 12100F for cheap, an matx 1700 board for cheap, and a used or new video card for cheap, u can pickup a gtx 970 or rx 470 480 570 580 for crazy cheap rite now, if you just need a display adapter and something to play at 720p Low Settings theres the 10 dollar HD 7570 1GB DDR5, i just ordered two cause they are just too cheap 🐢🤠🐢

[@ScoobertDoo-i5r]

Hi Tobias I’m sorry to bother you but do you build and sell these pcs anywhere? I’d love to buy one from you ! No worries if not

[@TechLabUK]

Hi, Sorry no, I don't sell PCs. I just make videos about building them really.

[@ScoobertDoo-i5r]

@ okay thank you for replying I thought should ask as I’d trust a pc built by you ha :) Take care thanks

[@Deutscheball]

a better system could be built on am4 with an rx 6600 gpu: rx 6600 cpu: 5500x mobo: B450 Storage: Crucial P3+ RAM: 16 gigs T-force Vulcan-Z psu: msi mag 650 case: any case below $65 all of this is only between 500-600 dollars and will outperform the system displayed in this video

[@JayJay-jv2wd]

a ~700 pound pc without a gpu sounds crazy. Don't know how i feel aboout this.

[@TechLabUK]

Unfortunately we are where we are when it comes to new and latest platforms. You could build a system for the same price with a GPU if you went for an older platform like AM4, or if you went pre-owned.

[@frsfthg9212]

Why not just 7600 and 5700xt

[@ONra_1g]

Why not just do your own video?

[@Nakedtoe]

@@ONra_1gand why don’t you make a video expanding on your argument? This build is horrible, I’d honestly recommend going am4 over this.

[@Will-zi6fn]

@@ONra_1gcus all he did was COMMENT a question in a KZbin COMMENT section which is exactly what a COMMENT section is for. Why would that warrant him making his own video?

[@SteTechGaming]

Pretty sure you can't buy a 5700XT new these days, only used

[@frsfthg9212]

I just asked a question, get over yourself. Also why would the creator like your comment, is he really upset 😅

[@indrakumarmutum3647]

can it supports online streaming game play with dedicated graphics card

[@TechLabUK]

Yes, easily.

[@jordanmntungwa3311]

This Build but with a A620 Board and a RTX 4060

[@Kanivalos80]

4 core 9000g Athlon when...

[@TechLabUK]

That would be cool, unfortunately it looks like AMD have abandoned entry-level CPUs, no Ryzen 3's or Athlons for three generations now.

[@tubesami]

Some of the ugliest modern cases and motherboards I've seen and this guy calls them "gorgeous" and "fantastic looking" 😶‍🌫

[@BREEZYM6015]

This particular case looks okay.

[@hundinger1]

Very ugly case indeed.
