[@ronnyb5890]

if you really want a state of the art PC, then you should do what i did, buy a piece every month untill you have everything most of the components are reasonably priced, exept for the GPU, those cards are pricey, i only went for a 1080p 4Gb DDR4 one, all the rest is too expensive, i did put 128Gb DDR5 RAM in the PC, i bought 64Gb at a time like i said, if you sread buying the components over several months, then you can buy a powerful PC

Any system with a clean install of Windows should never boot straight to the desktop due to legal reasons. The OOBE (Out Of Box Experience) should always be triggered by the seller once they have finished setting up the system for their customer & it is the responsibility of the person using the system to agree to the terms & conditions, also to set any of the privacy settings during the setup of the system

I mean - for $217 this is LITERALLY a good deal! You need to add another 100-150 for a LOW PROFILE GPU in this order from worst to best: GTX 1050, GTX 1630, GTX 1050 Ti 4GB, GTX 1650 (normal, Super, Ti) Then I think the RX 6400 belongs here and then the RX 6500, RTX 2050, RTX 2060 - and now we are getting to the price of the system - so $200+ RTX 3050, RTX 3060, RTX 4050, RTX 4060. Think that pretty much sums up your options. Personally I would try and find a GTX 1650 for this CPU pairing. It will literally crush most modern games in low 720p/900p/1080p - depending on the game.

[@MarkHyde]

And a SSD.

[@SAMIAMFNX]

[@Craider79]

@@MarkHyde Hehe yeah fair - said that in another post - so for some reason didn't have it here? You can get a 240GB SSD for $18 so yeah - 100% agree

[@Craider79]

@@SAMIAMFNX I mean the thing is - sure - you can get much better monitors - but as someone who grew up with CRT monitors (12" and 14" CGA, EGA and VGA was the shheeeiiittt when the first PC my dad had put in my room when I was like 6 had an "amber display" :-D ) - these cheap monitors are ACTUALLY not that bad. I would 100% upgrade the keyboard and mouse first if It was me - since you can at least get fairly competent mice on sale for like $20 all the time. Man just remember my dad worked on a VGA monitor for days which had been thrown out due to it being "not repairable" - and he fixed it - so I could play Wolfenstein3D! Dads are the best! 😀

[@AmierAzzeal]

I think for a low end set up for gaming it would need to be around $400-500. Better to just make the PC yourself with a decent size PC case so you can fit in everything you need. But for those who don't want to make their own PC I would agree with the video that this setup may not be worth it, for gaming anyway. If you can fit one of those GPUs and replace the hard drive with a small ssd, couldnt tell if there was a M.2 slot then thats already a big upgrade. Monitor could always be upgraded later.

Actually not having windows installed is the correct way TVN, having windows installed means the seller had to agree with the terms of service which the buyer did not and YES it's stupid but Microsoft Windows does see this as a illigal move on the OEM TOS. Linus Tech Tips was able to explain it and everyone agree's it's stupid, but Microsoft owns it so they make the rules

[@Lord_Williams]

Apart from the mega cheap peripherals, that may be a good entry level pc for anyone. Would it be possible to upgrade the hdd to ssd and add a gpu? I realise expense but an idea. Also after snapping that keyboard I think you should have stomped on the mouse to see how that held up 🤣 Love the channel and much respect.

[@CRPT_X]

You can't upgrade anything really in that pc, I've got the same and the cable management is horrible and the components are so close together

[@DredFul595]

That is possibke but hard

[@RusRus72]

that hdd was a enterprise grade hdd so its basically pretty fast hdd main reason as to why it feels pretty responsive

[@efftee]

The best GPU you could fit in there is probably a 3050 low profile but considering most of these come with 240w psus a 1650 super low profile is probably safer.

[@deathseeker754]

Want to throw in my 2 cents here. I got one of these for a friend, not the crazy rgb one, but they have a setup that comes with a 4GB AMD graphics card, with an 17 cpu, and it was $185 but it also had a 500gb SSD with a 2 TB HD. I have to say i was beyond impressed for the money it cost, he usuae it to this day and it plays everything at about medium to high except for he big title fames like BL3 plays at med-low. But still, its a great starter and it showed him the possibility of PC. I also got him some emulators and older games like morrowind and oblivion. And although you got the more.... "RGB GO BRRRRR" version, there are definitely some gems out there for everyone to find. Also this was about 3 years ago so that may be different from the price they have em at now.

[@andrewryan824]

For the money it's not a terrible deal. certainly not a gaming rig. But a good second computer after you add an ssd and it would be a decent machine for maybe editing video. i5, 16g ram, and 2tb storage is nothing to sneeze at, get it booting off a ssd and it's certainly usable.

[@BadgerOff32]

I don't understand why all modern gaming stuff has to come with RGB lights all over everything. Like, do companies think that is what gamers want? Garish multicolored lights over everything? Keyboard, mouse, speakers headsets....even the bloody _mousemat_ for gods sake! Why does a mousemat need LED lights around it? RGB lights just look tacky, and makes even the most expensive equipment look super cheap.

[@FayeSKIII]

Then why the FUCK would you call it a GAMING SET UP if it doesn't have rgbs? That's literally the point of gaming set ups, if your mouse and keyboard doesn't have rgb then don't call it a gaming set up, instead call it your office, you classic nerd

[@ytmld]

the aesthetic gives people the idea that you’re getting more than what you paid for. It doesn’t cost anything to put RGB on and it doesn’t rack up the power bill so there’s no reason why there *shouldn't* be RGB for these gaming companies. me personally I hate RGB since my PC is in my bedroom and I don’t want it to be a nuisance.

[@Craider79]

You can probably OC the monitor - however I don't know if the crappy Intel onboard graphics allows for it.

[@Vortexaon]

why did you turn on directx 11 because performance mode is better fps

[@zgamingF9]

[@cryptodevilgamer2511]

These pc's are mostly used at office's, most will know that. gaming on these so called setups, is not impossible, lowest settings + limited in games that one can play, but why hassle, an old pc, can be fun. Just add a low profile GPU and you are on the go. ;) One has to love oldskool ;)

[@Spietler]

You could probably find a Ps4 slim and Monitor with built in sound for about the same price if you buy used. That would also quilify as a complete setup. Fortnite and Minecraft runs great on Ps4. I'm not sure if it will work with a mouse.

[@NaturalBornLowlander]

He hears the cpu calculating? I'm sure the cpu doesn't make any sound. You probably heard the hdd😂
