11:07 pro tip if you are bulk buying from an Aliexpress seller, message the seller and ask for a discount on top of whatever coupons get automatically applied. Chances are the seller will actually say yes and give you another discount. It may only be like $5 but hey, still saving :)

[@Red-ol9xg]

I usually make around 300-400 pounds profit (380-510 dollars) per pc sale. I also sell my PCs as complete setups so I include monitor keyboard mouse and speakers and sometimes a mousepad. Simply because I find most people don’t have any periferals and I can get them pretty cheap. So if u can sell a complete setup you will get more customers and you can charge more.

10:45 you started the built at 9-42am, 12:28 you finished at 10-21am, 40mins to build a pc is wild

[@rezaimran98]

If you do it a lot you can get faster at building PCs.

[@moy280]

I would say that’s on average on what it takes to build a pc for me including cable management. As long as fans are pre installed and you don’t have to deal with a lot of extra cable connections you should get a lot faster the more pcs you build. Also helps if you build in the nicer cases

[@sambrea1949]

@@moy280 I guess, I’ve built a few PCs and repaired/upgraded a bunch. 40mins sounds very fast tho, but ig once you’ve built 20+ PCs it’s almost mindless at this point

[@miihael4713]

i built my pc in 30 mins :D, not the best cable manage ment but good enough

[@HEAT_SEEKER01-000]

[@jd881]

Sounds like a bios issue with the clocks on those sticks of ram. The newer AMD chips can be picky when it comes to ram speed. I would make sure the bios of the motherboard fully supports the CPU and ram combo, then make sure PBO is turned off.

This is my favorite content, keep sharing the pc struggles I like to watch in case I ever run into them!

[@HutchKlutch]

I've had that same problem with my PC shutting off randomly. I did all those same steps except for swapping out the CPU. I finally ended up updating my chipset driver and that solved the issue for me. My setup at the time was a RTX 2080Ti, 32GB RAM @ 3600Mhz, and a Ryzen 7 3800x.

[@TropicalKrispy]

Hey bro just wanna say you’re the reason I started learning about pc’s and now I flip em! I’ve sold 3 so far! I managed to sell one for $1000. Thank you so much bro! I’d never thought I’d find a hobby that’d make me money!

[@franzbeckenbauer242]

Ryzens 3600 had problem with degradation like intel 13 and 14th gen. Motherboard set too high voltage for it and after 2-3 years CPU had issues even to boot at normal voltage. Maybe this one had simillar problem.

[@MrSamadolfo]

Exactly, its a well known fact, but I guess not everybody is up to speed yet?

[@GH0ST_ZR0]

This CPU runs at a factory setting of 1.5V which is too high for what it is capable of. Personally when I had it a few year back I was using it with a voltage of 1,2-1,3 V (some are stable at even 1,1V or lower) the thing. This cpu is easy to overclock and stable at around 4,4-4,6 ghz max boost with a voltage of 1,3 given that you have a decent cooler.

[@MrSamadolfo]

[@RencyJ93]

I’ve been loving this series as it’s given me motivation to join along with my own builds! Big question for you Elijah. When you ship and add insurance, how are you able to keep the cost of shipping so low? Which shipping provider do you use? I’ve sold several PC’s and shipping with the cheapest insurance runs me about $75. What sucks is that doesn’t include any third party website fees.

12:58 It's kinda fun building twin white builds. I guess I built cousin/twin builds last year when the cpu is different (or twins born a few minutes apart one was a 12700KF other 12900KF). Kind of easy when the board and BIOS are the exact same though just setting them up.

3:47 Remeber to check the maximum limit of RAM for the CPU. I think the ryzen 53600 supports 128gb ram maximum in dual channel configuration

[@Texial]

Yes I was gonna comment this. I don’t think he researched that all CPUs have a ram limit. Most mid tier CPUs (like the R5 3600) have the limit of 3200mhz, and 64gb of ram. So the ram he put in probably messed up the cpu and if he had just searched up the CPU ram limits it would have fixed his issues.

[@MrSamadolfo]

Tech Yes and Greg and a few other channels reported that many used 3600 are permanently damaged, they got damaged by the default bios settings being too high, the samething is happening now with used lga 1700 cpus right now. If you rewatch the old Fix or Flop videos by Greg the number #1 cpu that was replaced on the show was the 3600. Used hardware creates all sorts of weird Ghosts in the Machine errors they can sometimes make you chase Ghosts and Phantoms. Bad Boards is another main culprit. Just leaving the computer run overnite is not enough, the computer has to be shut down and cooled over night, then turn it back on and warm it up, rinse n repeat, some errros won't show up until you cycle the computer off and on and heating up and cooling down and expanding shrinking over the span of days. The Gamdias Talos E2 Elite is the superior and better case but of course it will cost a few dollars more its a clone of the Corsair 220T, im not a fan of pc cases that have a skirt panel along the side and bottom of the front, i prefer glass all the way from top to the bottom of the case.
