It probably would have cost them around 10-15 bucks to add another stick of ram into the build. Instead they only put one in to save that little bit of money and cost us even more money since ram is more expensive and harder to find if you are only buying a single stick versus two sticks.

[@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou]

@@olivierdols5556 I think so especially seeing how some people that buy prebuilts aren't comfortable upgrading their rig even if it's something as simple as sticking in another stick of ram. So a prebuilt coming with 8GB will definitely stop some people from purchasing it. I'd prefer they charge an extra 20 bucks and include a second stick. I ended up throwing in two more 8GB sticks of ram in my prebuilt that came with a single 8GB stick so now I'm rocking 24GB. I was able to get two sticks of 8GB ram for 55 bucks which wasn't bad I would have preferred to just pay 20 bucks extra for a second stick of ram to be included though.

Actually that new case could EASILLY be "hotrodded" for much better airflow. Remove the hard drive cage, install fan onto empty holes as front INTAKE. It will be limited but a pressure optimized fan should pull much more air in than nothing. The GPU "backplate" is a brace that will help guide air from the front intake to the GPU. It even has slits cut to allow airflow front to back. REVERSE the exhaust fan by the cpu, use as rear INTAKE. The case will have passive exhaust out the side panel. The only real cost is a new fan, and the sacrifice of the HDD cage. But you could still slap a couple of SATA SSDs around to make of for some of the HDD cage loss. The worst choice they made was the excess of side panel ventilation. A substantial portion of the front INTAKE airflow will be lost out the bottom of that side panel. Covering the extra triangle they added this generation could improve the path of fresh air to the GPU and not wasted out the side panel. Can the panels be swapped? Always love your videos man, they get me thinking.

LMFAO this said 1 view and 26 seconds ago, I thought it said 26 days. Ima enjoy this vid now!

[@DawidDoesTechStuff]

Haha!! That would have been real sad.

[@atlBG13]

Would anyone recommend this mainly just for running recordings and streams on an Elgato HD60 on 1080p 60fps? I have a MacBook and use it for work and my Elgato but I want to upgrade since the MacBook can barely even do 720p with 60fps. I don’t know a lot about these PCs so some info would be very much appreciated!!

[@ThePunchBag]

this computer works great and is great for people without a lot of money this video is honestly insulting..

[@DeusVult-zy6ls]

But you can build a much better one that doesn't try to eliminate itself just by running anything for cheaper, and with all the issues that just pile up it isn't worth it

[@samuelglynn287]

Yeah I picked this one up on sale for $499 as my first true gaming PC and when it comes to building my own I didn’t want to mess anything up my first time around so I actually like this PC

[@trevorsmith470]

The SSD in that system is actually better than I was expecting. The SN520 is DRAMless and doesn't have HMB for some reason, but it beats the trashy WD Greens that a lot of OEMs put in their machines.

[@Alaitoc1422]

Everytime I see these pre-built PCs I'm more and more happy to have learned and built mine. Hitting thermal limit like this is absolutely unacceptable. This build (and many other) always reek off the ''it works good enough and they don't know better, so whatever'' mentality. Like in LTT newest tech shopper. Even in the winning iBuyPower build, when he put on screen the ongoing benchmarks on the 2070 super that it was hitting 1665 Mhz core clock. This was a MSI 2070 Super (not a blower one). I have one of the cheapest 2070 supers in my PC (gigabyte windforce 3x) and at base settings in goes to 1965 Mhz at less than 65 degrees. Stable OC at 2025 lower than 60 degrees with ajusted fan curves (I have a good arflow case). The pre-built basically gives you a 15% drop in core clock compared to a cheap GPU of the same kind. Wild. Anyway good video, I really like those.

[@bobbimg1974]

Well I got this for my first computer and as a Christmas gift so I hope it's good

[@DawidDoesTechStuff]

Reinstall windows in it and you should be okay. 👍

[@depressedfrog2]

At least it has a back fan so it's not going to be THAT hot

[@Cr1tikillHit]

ikr

[@rmgaminguk7079]

What gets me, is that even if the parts are ok, you have to be a tech enthusiast to sort it out. In this case, buy 8g of extra ram, reinstall a fresh windows to get rid of all the bloatware, add an hard drive for backup storage as 512gb will not last long, and even after all that there's not room on the case to add more fans to solve the heat issues. To solve the heat issue you'd have to go all Jimmy to remove the drive cage and drill holes to start mounting input fans in the front and another exhaust fan at the top. If you could do that you could build a better pc for less. So at the end of the day these pre-builds are just there to scam people who aren't into computers :(

I have this exact Pc, I simply upgraded everything from the GPU to the CPU and cooling fans. I’ve had zero issues with it. Runs warzone at 120fps. So far it’s been great little Pc. So if you can’t afford anything outside of this models price range, get one and slowly upgrade the internals. This video is great but it doesn’t really give the pros vs cons of the system.

did u end up getting it

[@Hi-ue2jf]

No I’m getting a pc August 6 and I’m not sure if I should get this one or not

[@AnimexesPiano]

@@Hi-ue2jf I have bene fishing for a good pc for the last couple of days, every single prebuild is 'bad' for every review. I think this pc isnt that bad, you can uninstall the bloatware. Only thing weird is the power supply fan on the bottom, but if you put it in a different case (later) or maybe just put elevate case with the bottom fan having more space to breathe its not that bad imo

[@Hi-ue2jf]

Ok good to know thanks

[@TrusteftTech]

10:10 - 10:18 What do you mean by that? That the GPU is a small version affects its temps negatively? If yes, why do you also mention the CPU? They only come on one size and the motherboard and case are not tiny.

Summary: don’t buy a gaming prebuilt from a company that makes office computers

[@stephenw6]

Cousin of mine got one of these earlier in the year, changed the IO fan and deleted some of that bloatware and its actually a good bit of kit

[@dkillerbean8368]

Any idea how you change fans and what to buy

[@Franfan69]

This guy just hates acer likes wtf

[@Electrify85]

No complaints about my Acer prebuilt. Granted it is a non-gaming model which I added a video card and upgraded the power supply, but it has met my gaming and computing needs quite well over the last 3 years. Hoping to keep it going for a couple more years before I do a major upgrade to it.

[@downnnnnn]

My acer prebuilt was actual dogshit.

[@erniehelmholz3644]

Hey man I enjoy watching your videos. The acer nitro 50 isn't too bad. Played lots of games on it like total war warhammer and all the others. Planet zoo, subnautica, zero dawn horizon and more. Based on speccy it didn't got to warm. About 65 at the cpu and 60 with the gpu. I also build my own pcs and know that building your own is always best. But for people that are afraid building their own one and don't need to much power its really not to bad. The ventilation isnt good that's true. But also mine came with 2 8gb rams so they improved there I think. Keep up the good videos✌️

[@sfjwr]

Hey man, I want to purchase this for my son. Is it a good starting point as far as a gaming PC?
