[@TheGameBench]

With GPU's with dedicated power, it's actually the other way around. They generally pull most of their power from the dedicated power and pull very little from the PCIe slot. I made that same mistake in the past.

[@Tech.Closet]

Great video, upgrading this kind of desktop is pain with all those custom motherboard, psu... good job👍

[@toxclegend]

Yall deserve WAY more subs! Videos get straight to the point, you explain everything in a way that people that arent familiar with the different pc specs (like me) can easily understand, and the benchmark tests really help give an insight of how well a product performs when running a certain game at certain graphics settings. I’ve recently started becoming interested in building PCs and learning which specs are good and which arent, which helps as i’ve yet to get my very first gaming pc, and let me just say that watching your videos has helped me learn more and more each day! Thanks for that!

[@Jimbo718Slice]

i did a build similar to this with the newer version of this PC that has a ryzen 3 5300G. i threw in a spare zotac single fan gtx 1650 and 16gb of corsair vengeance lpx ram for it and it works surprisingly well with my 50 inch samsung smart tv

[@projectpcs5064]

Love the videos, I aspire to be as big as you guys here in Canada

[@1gatomon]

Back when you could not afford or find graphics cards I built a few systems using the 3200G, 3400G. 5600G and 5700G Overall as you progress up from the 3200 the graphics got better and I could play most games on low to mid settings. Adding a graphics card boosted that tremendously. Still during that time one could at least build and game. Then upgrade when you got a Graphics card and could also upgrade the processor.

[@stillwing1]

You can drop a 6500xt in it and pull 100fps med settings I got it here in my bedroom as a backup gamer but I have the 5600g in mine. It handles the power just fine never pulls to much and is really impresive for the setup.

[@theoneyoudontsee8315]

you should have shown how just the dual channel ram upgrade works too!

[@Arrowsmith86]

huh, the algorithm found me something interesting, subbed!

[@80seurobeatgarage]

You can pick up an amd 6400 from best buy for about 160, doesnt require external power, is low profile so itll fit in practically anything. And would pair perfectly with low budget apu builds.

[@JinghisKhan]

1650 Low Profile might be better in most cases because of the PCIE Gen 4 vs Gen 3 issues that the 6400 and 6500 XT have. But yeah, if you have a low budget APU SFF build that also has PCIE Gen 4 slots and capability, then the 6400 isn't a bad card.

[@Ironzanni]

Was thinking of buying this exact pc but with the upgraded card already in it but I don’t know much about computers I only play old school RuneScape so this video helped me realize I only need a potato for OSRS

We bought my PC from Best Buy last year. The PC had a watercooled i9 10900KF and MSI RTX 2080 Super Ventus XS OC, 16gb of DDR4 3,200 mhz ram and a 1tb SSD. We upgraded the SSD and ram to a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2tb and 64gb of DDR4 3,200 mhz. The MSI RTX 2080 Super Ventus XS OC is still in the PC but I'm looking at upgrading it to an MSI RTX 3080 Ventus 3X 12G OC or MSI RTX 3080 Gaming Z Trio 12G.

[@JesusGonzalez-ft7ec]

I am SO glad I found this video, this is literally the exact same model PC I have at my work office and I’ve been discretely upgrading it since I like to game from time to time 👀 but it makes me so happy seeing a GPU that actually fits it because I could never find a concrete answer online as to which GPU would, and I’m even happier to know that I don’t have to upgrade the PSU since HP’s proprietary cables make that such a pain, THANK YOU!’

Yep, and the pavilion gamer line is already discontinued for the new Victus line which appears to be a much better line, won't know more till my store actually gets their victus stuff

[@chewysofa550]

Bought my first PC, the HP Pavilion desktop for $650 after watching your guys' video on it. It's a great way to get into PC gaming without throwing a whole lot of money into it without knowing what it is. It was helpful as I upgraded the RAM and memory in that computer to learn how to work on PC's. Although it's not a great PC it can run AAA titles at low settings. I'm currently collecting parts to make a RTX 3060 build. Love these low end PC reviews.

[@plopkoek6519]

Do you know what you’ll pair your RTX 3060 with?

[@chewysofa550]

@@plopkoek6519 I'd say probably an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

[@ThatPaulGuy]

I bought and reviewed the version of this PC with the 4600g and 1TB NVMe, and it wasn't quite a smooth trying to upgrade. I did get matching memory and even tested with a GTX1650 which did work, but the power draw was pretty close to the limit. I ended up getting a 400 PSU for it and throwing an 80 MM Noctua fan in it (mounted on the black side cage) and found that it performed pretty well after that, with less power draw and cooler temps. The current HP Bios at the time didn't allow me to swap a 5600g in as the CPU, but I was able to test the 4600g on its own and found a nice performance gain over the limits of the HP system. I did find it to be very solid for what it is, it was just a little harder turning it into a gaming rig.

[@aleksazunjic9672]

Do not buy AMD G processors if you already plan to spend money on discrete GPU. They are slower and cost more money than non-G counterparts.

[@b0ne91]

@@aleksazunjic9672 yeah I don't get why people do that. The 4600G performs like a 2600X (much cheaper) and a 1650 costs a lot more than a GTX 970 but performs worse. If you're using a discrete GPU, invest in a cheap PSU (at this wattage, you can get cheap and quality), get a used CPU and GPU and you're in for a much better system with more upgradability.

[@galacticcube6180]

I found a really cheap $190 dollar HP desktop computer like this on Amazon but it comes with a monitor and mouse and keyboard, it had decent reviews and it will arrive at my place Wednesday, any chance you think I can upgrade it like this?

[@banks33]

this makes me wanna re test my 3400G last time i tested that cpus intergrated gpu it did very well most games i played on it was able to get 60fps at medium settings or low settings at 1080p. it was proper good. might have to break out the 3400G once more.

[@manuelhernandez2017]

Does better now. 1080p med-ish is almost guaranteed in almost all modern titles except the most demanding. My wife's PC was running the division 2 and SFV at 1080p medium 50-60fps while I was waiting for her GPU to come in.
