I Bought The Cheapest COMPLETE PC Setup On eBay...

While we usually focus on computer towers or individual components, there are some bargains to be had on full PC setups. So if you have a tiny budget and need a complete computer, including monitor, keyboard, mouse and Windows, what can you expect at the lowest end of the market?
Thanks for watching :)

The only integrated graphics solutions that came close to the GeForce 210/8400 were the GeForce 9400 IGP and GeForce 320 IGP (both part of the Ion platform and used in some Core 2 Apple products from late 2008 until everything moved to Sandy Bridge). Maybe the ATI Xpress 3200 as well, but I’m not sure it supported DX10.

I build a Athlon II X3 435( with a 4th unlockable core)+ motherboard and a GTX 465 for about 50 euros, I used a HDD I basically got for free with some ram I also got for free, a case for 10 bucks and yeah the psu I initially got for free but I had a really loud pop when I was overclocking, and after swapping out some parts it appears the psu might have died. I'm gonna try it in a couple of minutes and see if that thing works again it's some old generic PSU that gives 450W which should have been plenty for the set up, it uses around 350-380W max if I recall correctly. Also I think it's probably dead I've had bad stuff with computers before but it was hella loud and yeah luckily nothing but that got damaged everything else is running as it Should. But ignoring the hick ups it's still really good for gaming ( less good for general usuage cuz if the hdd but a SSD would definitely fix that.) I can play most games on medium settings around 60fps( kinda depends what game exactly but deep rock galactic runs with medium and ultra settings ( textures in ultra the rest in medium). It did get a bit more expensive but the psu but before that it was a great deal. Still is a fun build though

[@maddhatter0]

This was great m8!

[@caligoclarus]

I have one of these I am using as a media machine on a TV, but it could, in fact, be used for light gaming if you upgrade/mod it a bit. I flashed a custom BIOS on mine and installed a cheap quad-core Xeon along with 8GB of DDR3 RAM. I added a $5 Radeon HD 7450, that I have a few of lying around anyway, for some basic graphics output. It can actually run some old or simple games OK, despite being an aging, weaker OEM card. It's only 25w, so besides fitting in the half-height slot, it can run off the low MB PCIe power. I would suggest something else though if intended for light gaming, perhaps the Nvidia GT 1030 variant with DDR4 RAM. While inferior to the normal GT 1030, it only requires 20W draw from the PCIe slot.

[@LouisCopsey]

[@EweToobUsername]

This machine actually had a deeper upgrade path thanks to the spare parts aftermarket. Boards from the 760/960 give you a q45 chipset with DDR2 support (8GB max), the 780 gives you a q45 chipset and DDR3 support (16GB max), and the 980 is a soclet 1156 board that is a direct fit and supports 16GB of DDR3. I don’t remember on the 760, but the 780 board and 980 I have both support up to 75 watt cards (my 980 has a Radeon R7 250 in it). I’d offer my 780 board and a e6700 Pentium Dual Core (3.2 GHz) for the cost of shipping if you ever wanted to do a video about upgrading one of these.

there may be a latch to pul back in order to re-seat the side panel. IIRC, it may be built into the padlock loop (the piece f metal with a hole on chassis and panel). I work in IT repair, 20+ years now, these were pretty standard machines for the state of CT, and again iirc, that side panel needs a lever that is hidden as part of the mechanism for locking up the case.

Actually on that model it may be a piece of black plastic on the top or side (depending on orientation) of the machine that pushes in to allow the side panel to slide into place.

You can remove the DVD drive and replace it with an SSD using a laptop ODD adapter, and you can replace the CPU with a modded Xeon 3300/5400 series from AliExpress for anywhere between $5 and $20. The X3363 is the most compatible, and the E/X5450 is the best value; just make sure you avoid the 400 MHz FSB models that end in 2, and remember to update the BIOS.

These Dell business PCs last forever too. We use them at work and they have to live in some hideous environments but they keep on truckin'. Specifically the Optiplex XE models, you can throw them out of a moving bus, dust it off, and it would be fine.

The trick with these is is to find the ones with the i7 3770 in. 8 threads some have 16gb ram in. Pcie 3 and sata 3. However get the normal tower as the low profile stuff costs more in parts.

Love the Prince Andrew joke in there. 👍😂

This would be all the computer a lot of people would need. Hook it up to a broadband connection and it would be great for a lot of parents and grandparents out there.

That's a pivot Monitor, I had one in a smaller size (I think it was 15" and 1024x768) - the advantage is that for full page view of PDFs, you can get a larger and more detailed display by pivoting and using the Windows rotate key shortcuts

Yes, this was the exact model that they upgraded my office PC to back in 2008!

I had one of these back in the day, dropped it one day and put my foot under to stop it getting damaged. It literally broke my toe but saved the system so swings and roundabouts.

if you want some free sound to go with that, most of the dells have a speaker in ( i have the same model ) windows wont detect it, or driver apps for some reason ? but you can find it on dells website,tho dont use the installer, it says o/s not know ? just unzip and then point device manager at it ! :)

My Optiplex 3010 has those same artifacts in a lot of games on Ubuntu Linux, and I was already considering adding some upgrades such as a Core i7, RX 560 if possible, maximum amount of RAM unofficially supported, and a SSD.

Not bad at all, especially that it has a mouse, keyboard and monitor included, and a wi-fi adapter :) That was probably an older Wi-Fi 802.11n 2.4GHz only adapter (I have a few myself) which is fine for most things. Of course if you want the best performance and don't want Ethernet, use a PCI card, not that you'll fit one in that case! The mouse looked to be a modern HP (my university has loads of those HP laser mice) but I'm not liking the Windows XP based clunky keyboard! That would have to go. And the legacy Dell monitor? Ok for the basics. Not my preferred type of monitor (not widescreen), but it'll do :) Good deal for £50 there, and can't believe the GT210 came in handy :D

This will ACTUALLY support a firepro wx4100 card which is pretty close in performance to an rx560 turning this into a pretty capable gaming rig at least for esports titles like CS:GO, especially with the aforementioned core 2 quad thrown in...you also have the option of using an x-series Xeon as the bios has built-in support for those too...I know because I got one of these absolutely free, maxed out the ram to 8gb ddr2 that I had laying around, threw in the wx4100 with 4gb video mem and an x3370 Xeon and honestly not bad at all for the price! It'll run most of the latest games believe it or not, great value even in 2020 and I did all this WITHOUT changing the power supply too!!!

what you did is push the retaining metal clips of the side panel flat, you can see it clearly at 2:59

I've been subscribed since you had 20k subs. Please take a friendly piece of advice and adjust your volume levels. Set the peak at -3db at least. Every time i switch onto your video i have to increase my speaker volume. Audio plays a big role on the overall content quality.

I'm glad this upload was on a school afternoon. I have trouble sticking with one video but I think I'll finish this one.
