The tricky part with budget builds is to get the maximum value/$ on the long term, not buy too cheap and have to upgrade earlier or buy too expensive and have more than what you really need but still upgrade at the same time in the future. That is a very tricky balance, it depends on hardwaredevelopment, price-development and game-development.

[@frankshaw2057]

A power supply that I like lately is the Thermaltake Smart BM3 650W, the price is higher, $60 to $70, it gives a little more headroom for future upgrades and is a semi-modular design with all black cables. So it looks great and you can cut back on the extra cables getting stuffed somewhere. I do like your build videos, you sound like you enjoy doing them.

[@nikolassovtich1309]

I would have went with a cheaper case and put that extra money into the psu 😁

[@MrSamadolfo]

check the 750 cause sometimes its the same price, prices are weird

[@drek9k2]

@@nikolassovtich1309Yeah like I'd recommend anyone try and get a 700w if they can, IF they was planning to keep it and upgrade the thing in a few years. You pretty much can't do that without either getting a lower end part with low power draw or having to upgrade PSU and let me tell you changing out power supply is one of the biggest hassles, only replacing the motherboard is a bigger pain in the ass and not by much. You typcially want only one PSU in the life of the PC even a very high end one. It's a hassle and money you never needed to spend, so try and make that last. 650w should be plenty for most GPUs, and I doubt anyone is buying a 4090 or 7900XTX if they're starting with a 500$ minmax build. 500w is fine for lots of parts but if it's on Intel you may run into power problems when trying to fit power budget into an i7+new GPU. Ryzen is super good for that reason, it's so power efficient.

[@fone5003]

4:20 Case reccomendation: MSI MAG Forge 112R I used it for my first build recently, it's got a mesh front panel, 4 pre-installed ARGB fans, splitters, an RGB hub and looks fairly minimalist to fit into whatever setup you want. I don't know about the USA but in the UK it's about £60 on Amazon.

As somebody who daily drives a Ryzen 5 5500 and an RX 7600, you're the only person I've seen online who doesn't just blatantly disregard and instead push people to go for the higher binned 5600G or 5600. it's a truly great processor for when it just fits your budget. Thanks Oz! You're the best at these videos, and I find that watching your builds is often so relaxing. Edit: also really dig your choice of background music!

[@13bmitchell]

Meh. For a few dollars the 5600 really is worth it. You get slightly better clocks, more L3 cache which can affect gaming performance, and the PCI 4.0 support is good for the Arc and RDNA 2 cards (RX6600).

[@Del11k]

The thing to remember with the b350/450 and a320/520 motherboards is that you don't get Gen 4 support,only Gen 3. So either go for the Gen 3 nvme(slighty cheaper also) or get the non-wifi Gigabyte B550M DS3H(which in the UK is the same price as the b450 wifi). Also not having Gen 4 support effects the performance of some low end gpus(rx6400/6500xt/etc).

[@esref_52]

Ryzen 5 5500 does not support PCIe 4.0, so it does not matter in this case. But for future-proofing, a b550 makes more sense as you might be upgrading your cpu and want to take advantage of its features.

[@kimsoderholm9101]

Check your gpu usage bro, it´s being bottlenecked by the cpu. You need something like a 5600x to fully support the gpu imo

[@wagnonforcolorado]

+1 for the observation. GPU in Hogwarts is showing only 70ish % utilization. The Ryzen 5600 (x or non x are very close in performance) is only about $120 on Newegg. The 5600G is NOT a good alternative (the G has less cache). 5600(x) has higher clock speed then the 5500 and more cache which would help keep data flowing to the GPU. It's also possible that using a PCIE Gen 3 slot might be contributing to the issues? (hint hint...possible video comparison topic...) Good news is that this build would give great service, while you kept an eye out for a screamin' deal on a B550/5600 or better GPU combo.

[@ashenwattegedera]

​@@wagnonforcoloradoThe problem I have is that B550 in my country is way too expensive. I really wish A520 had a least 1 pcie 4 slot. For me its cheaper to buy 12400 and h610 and get better performance than 5600x and h610 has full pcie 4 support.

I got some old office desk terminal/PC husks with power bricks already in them; put the screws, spacers, and studs I wanted to use with the upgraded motherboard, flipped it over and put a tiny dot of epoxy on each stud end, set it in the case and waited for the epoxy to cure enough to pull the screws, removed motherboard and added more epoxy (metal epoxy, like JB Weld [not an affiliate] is what to use), let it cure, rebuilt system. Very quiet, very cheap, tiny footprint, fun to build and not too hard - since every motherboard comes with the back metal plate to pop in, a dremel type tool to cut out the opening after tracing the plate is also quick (choose the right dremel blade, or if you have a keyhole/scroll saw that also works easy) and everything fits.

[@vespasian606]

I can't fault your choices but I'll point out the one obvious thing. That PSU will potentially limit any GPU upgrades. It's a $500 build with new parts so it is what it is. The only alternative I can think of is moving some of the CPU budget to the PSU and maybe try getting something beefier. The catch would be that further down the line your new GPU might be limited by the weaker CPU. Such is the life of a PC builder.

[@MrSamadolfo]

agree, that power supply is more for video cards that are single 8pin at most

[@user-kc1tf7zm3b]

I'm not even a PC builder, tho I game on consoles I really enjoy your content. Very relaxing, and hey... Never know I might decide to build a PC one because of you. 🤙👌

Oooooo SNAP! King blue and black never goes wrong! I’m very picky at cases specially Cable extensions, but yours looks ASTONISHING!

[@mikeelek9713]

I like what you've done here. I've been thinking about building a PC for a buddy of mine, and this one looks like it would suit him perfectly.

Love the cozy feel of your videos, keep up the good work man!

Imo if you're building with AM4 you want to have at least a Zen 3 processor since it will be the final upgrade path of AM4. But I think the Ryzen 5600 will make the price went up over the $500 price limit. Still a worthy spending though

You must be having so much fun with what you are doing

With the IO shield you don't need to place it on the IO of the motherboard before installing, you can snap in the IO Shield to the IO cut out of the case and then align the motherboard with the standoffs which should alight the IO with the cutouts in the shield.

🙂 he just wanted to make sure he didn't install it upside down, so thats why he place it on the motherboard temporarily, but yeah like u said he then went on and placed the shield into the case first, he just didn't film it

Dude, that music, I feel like we just went on a quest to defeat overspending and slayed it.

TBH if I wanted to go budget then I'd just buy a Legion Go at this point lmao.
