Dude, don't listen to those "sell out" comments, you're always mixing up used and new products. One of the most creative Tech tubers on the scene. Keep up the great work. P.S. I picked up 7 assorted Dell Optiplex's today for $200 USD. Slapping them into some RGB cases and getting them ready for Christmas.

[@stevenwilliams6638]

@@Brandon-uy1uv not a huge deal. I sell them cheap so pressing F1 to continue at startup isn't a huge deal. Just need the power button to I buy cases accordingly (Phanteks P300)

I walked into a local pc shop with my deal hunting cape and had to have my parents bail me out of jail.

[@MojoWrangler]

Anyone who says you are a sell out has mommy and daddy money paying their way. You do you, make that buck, and keep bringing us good content. Thank you.

[@GGrev]

I am in Brisbane and I have noticed for the past year the used computer parts have gone up on ebay etc, so it is a national phenomenon. My theory is that the cheap parts have been sold out before the AUD went down, so it made new parts more expensive starting from about 2 years ago, and in that 1 year the cheap gear have been exhausted and the used parts we’re getting now are all quite dear. I have 8 of the Radeon 7990s and the cheapest one I got about 2 years ago was $150!!

[@computersfortheautisticfou9420]

we just moved to a new place which is a DIY/Makerspace gonna start hunting for PC's to convert them to donate for kids for Christmas hope you have a good holiday season and Merry Christmas Bryan

[@hd1845]

Never apologize for paying the bills Daddy Xeon. You're still one of the few used and new tech channels

[@KryptonicHD]

Bryan and Les couldn't even talk cause they talked at the same time every time LMAO xD

[@SmokinGoodd420]

Hey @Tech Yes City Just wanted to thank you Bryan! I finally picked up my first Tech deal, i was always afraid of used items. especially for PC building but because of your videos , i picked up a rx 570 4gb for 45$ USD power color red dragon. Its my first AMD card too! but i took the dive , and i want MORE! im already looking at some used x58 stuff to replace an old FX based system! Thanks Man!!

[@brendanfarthing]

About time we got some more X58 action! Look forward to the videos on those!

[@beronori]

My two best deals recently: Asus P6T+x5670+18Gb of Corsair XMS3+Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme --> £112 XFX R9 390 8GB Double Dissipation --> £38

[@DavidTimothy]

I think the new part reviews are great! I'm always changing up my personal rig with new parts and building rigs for people with a mix of new and used. Keep up the good work and let the haters lose themselves.

[@fabiusmaximuscunctator7390]

I really appreciate your reviews of new hardware, so please keep them. You are the only tech tuber I know that does comprehensive sound testing with motherboards. I really don't know much about sound, but at least there is someone how talks about it.

[@Xx-Zeppelin-xX]

I love the combo of new and used content! I have an old x58 that I've kept alive and just upgraded to x570, 3700x. Now the old parts get hand me downed.

[@mesterak]

The best deal I ever was lucky enough to land was an HP Z400 x58 system with 16GB and a Barco graphics card (FirePro 7800) all for $40. The system was super clean as well. Amazingly that was an eBay deal. Some guy had bought an office building and was trying get rid of all the equipment the previous owner left behind. I actually bought some other stuff from him for dirt cheap. I kept the Z400 and flipped the rest. Deals are out there, you just have to be patient and vigilant in looking for a deal.

[@ChazzaPvP]

nice, built my pc for £930 GBP/$1777 AUD/$1202 USD/€1091 EUR, it's really good! RTX 2070 Super, 16GB 3200MHz RAM, 240gb SSD, 2 TB HDD, Ryzen 5 2600x and a nice case too :D

[@redzyakuza]

I cant wait for the big ass x58 system to get some tech yes lovinnnn lets goo

[@greenprotag]

I honestly love the mix of used and new. It is good to know your opinion on new tech. We also like to see how it stacks up against older offerings. For example, if someone wants too much for their old i7 you can easily recommend a new ryzen 3600 because they have a pretty solid performance for the $200 CPU. It's important to build into a platform that you will want to use for 4-5 years and either you want an old platform to be a banger, or you want to jump into something upgradable like a new ryzen platform. I am a HUGE fan of older intel desktop CPUs like Ivybridge and Haswell, but it mayhaswell be cheap otherwise it ain't worth it.

[@kurok1tenshi]

That coolermaster 830 is in my heart, i have 1 even after some 10 years-ish, modded it and is still one of the best cases you can have, only lacks one thing that you can mod away, cable management, but the rest its a beast of a case.

[@peter2f6]

agreed, best case ever man. I wish I could figure out a way to modernize the front IO. I love that the mobo tray slides out.

[@twiztidsidfreak13]

Forget OEM, look for used prebuilt gaming PCs, you can find alot of older generation prebuilt systems that just need a little upgrading.

[@Trick-Framed]

You are THE ONLY channel I have notifications on for. TECH YES CITY FOREVER!

[@mattsmechanicalssi5833]

All 16XX V1, V2, and V3 are all unlocked. Intel locked them down for V4. The 1600's are also good with XMP memory profiles, whereas the 2600's are restricted to the Intel spec. For instance, My E5-1680-V2 (8c/16t) is clocked at 4.7GHz (all core), and running 32GB (8x4GB) 2133 @2400 CL9-11-10-27-54-2t. It was a big upgrade from the E5-2690 (V1) that boosted 2-3 cores to 3.8GHz, and the ram was restricted to 1600MHz. You could add maybe 3MHz to the BCLK, but even PCI-e cards didn't like it too much at 103MHz.

[@vincedonpsn9590]

YO. I found you on your x5875 overclocking guides etc. Seriously have improved my gaming experience from you man. I'm in Brissie, my mismatched PC and I seriously appreciate the videos mate!

[@retrofitter]

Love your videos, I'm running an i7 4770 and 16gb ddr3 I picked out of a chassis that was part of a load of rubbish that I was taking to the tip for someone. The chassis, PSU, mobbo and mid-range video card went to land fill. I saved the ram and CPU because it fitted on my dashboard. It wasn't until I cleaned the grease off the cpu that I realised what I had. I went to a local computer shop and bought a used motherboard to suit. If the chip makers were able to get significant gains in performance over time you woudn't be selling used PCs and I wouldn't be running trash picked hardware as my main rig.

[@shaneeslick]

G'day Brian, Please keep doing the new parts reviews, they are a big part of knowing if used parts prices & quality are worth the asking price, as you've showed some people are asking too much for used parts & new can be the way to go sometimes if there are deals to be had

[@FieryWings01]

Your friend from Brisbane must have done a good deal for you Bryan 😝😎🤓👍🏼 loved the new Pc parts hunt, keep up the great content as always and I can’t wait to see your videos on those 2 X58 rigs and what they can do ✌🏼

[@matthewmarkdegracia4182]

More power to you! Watching how passionate you are on what you doing makes me love pc more. Learning how appreciate the beauty of every pc/component that I find less attractive especially if it is not new. Looking forward on your future videos. :)

[@TheBinklemNetwork]

Love the conversations between yourself and Les

[@dog_knight]

Always loved the look of the nVidia series case, even though its looking more dated all the time. Was tempted to buy one in the past but it is huge and doesn't have a lot of the modern niceties. Can't wait to see how it scrubs up and what you manage to do with it. Hopefully you can make it something special.

[@themistoclesnelson2163]

Scored a Dell prebuilt yesterday with an i5 8400, 12GB of DDR4, activated Windows 10, and a 1TB Barracuda Drive. Cant wait to thro my 1650 in it.

[@moleenthusiast]

Do you think there will be good deals for black friday for a new pc upgrade? (~ryzen 3600 w/ motherboard & ram. I've just noticed the past few years that it seems to be less competitive than what it used to be... Unless im wrong?

[@ausbrendo9999]

Had a great hunt in toowoomba qld this month Picked up a pc for $250 with a i7 5820k, 32gb ddr4, 980ti hybrid, 120gb ssd and 750w psu also a $200 with a i7 4770 32gb ddr3, oem mobo 980ti, 250gb ssd and 750w. And also a $20 pc with fx6100, 12gb, hd6870 and 500w psu. Made good profit this month

[@dog_knight]

That x99 system is damn good value. 32gb of DDR4 almost covers the cost. Let alone a 980ti as well. Awesome find.

[@ausbrendo9999]

They all came up in the same week as well. Haven't found anything that good in this area in the last 3 years.

[@thcriticalthinker4025]

I like the new content most of the time, Its always good to see a trusted source cover upcoming products, and never forget, most of these parts will end up being budget at some point in the future XD. But definitely never stop with the used hustle, every so often I have to go and look for another source and its really hard to find good stuff like this.

[@tarelsun4025]

I have an older Xeon E5620 System here. The CPU got me from 2.4 Ghz Base to 3.78 Ghz stable with Blck OC. It´s running like a Beast.

[@pinkin8012]

I don't understand comments like this. It's not like you aren't bringing out any used parts videos anymore. So why wouldn't you stick around just because you cover new hardware as well? This doesn't make any sense to me at all. This doesn't make videos as this one less enjoyable and if you are not interested in new parts at all you don't have to watch it. I am personally here for the used pc parts stuff as well but also because of YOU and your personality so I also like watching the other stuff. Just keep doing what you are doing mate. A lot of people love it and when there are a few people who wanna tell you what content you should put out -> ignore it! Really looking forward to the X58 videos. Much love

[@shaneeslick]

I agree, I like the used parts vids for ideas to build cheap PCs for others, but knowing what it costs for new products can put used price parts in perspective, so the new product videos are important too You gotta know what new parts are worth to know if used part prices are a deal, in Sydney at the moment people are asking near new prices for used GPUs & CPUs, so Brians Bargaining tips are coming in handy to get better prices

[@thepcenthusiastchannel2300]

I really enjoy your content. I like the new stuff and the old stuff. I especially like the videos where you go out hunting for deals. Looks like fun :)

[@wallychambe1587]

[@thanhanle3879]

2:23 as far as i know, these oem cases are imported from the US, eu and shipping fees are so high that thay raise the price up This is happening too in VN, some sellers sell a Dell Optiplex with i5 2400 for nearly 150$ (without ssd inside) and it makes me feel bad

[@thanhanle3879]

5:45 this happening to fb marketplace, where some people ( seller for sure) use their second/clone fb account to post ads on, they usually post with 1 pretty high price and one for lower( still not a bargain). And they use different pics so that not many people will notice that and usually will buy from the lower one Same thing happens when they asking to buy used parts from normal user. Using different account to set a freaking lowball (58$ for a gtx 1060 6gb wtf? ) and then a higher ( usually abt 7-80$) and probally normal user will accept that price

Thanks Bryan, sending this from a stolen phone in a psych ward..they didn't like the cape. BREAK ME OUTTA HERE!!!!

[@NXSProductions]

Question: i5-3570 vs i7-3770S. Which and why? I know the i5 is better for straight up gaming due to the higher wattage, TDP, and being a 4-core, thread processor with a higher base clock. That said, for multitasking, I think the i7 will truly shine here. 2 more MB of cache (8MB) with 4 cores, 8 threads running at 3.1GHz (at stock, but turboing at around 3.8GHz) makes me think I've not made a bad sacrifice in gaming for the immense gain in multi-thread performance. That and the fact that the i7 uses 65W as opposed to the i5's 75W is also appealing. So again, I still have both of these... if you had your choice, which would you pick and why? Looking forward to your answers!

[@megumineatssand]

I found an Asus g750j with a 4th gen i7 mobile and a gtx 770m for $50 , the reason I believe he was selling it for was because he didnt know what was wrong with it , me being pretty smart knew the noise it made and it was just a broken hdd , replaced it with a 500gbb ssd for $100 , it needs a new keyboard but all keys are functional, now this is a very good or rare deal

[@8-bitpotato227]

​@@thealien_ali3382 i guess its just that many people just recycle them and upgrade so there arnt many left. Many of these also are inflated because of how cheap the rest of the components are like the cpu, ram, etc. I had an i5 4690k which is still very capable if you get tired of waiting for an i7 might be worth going for it and overclocking it.
