CPU : Intel i5 2400
GPU: Zotac Mini GTX1050
Mobo: Lenovo M91p from Thinkcentre

[@nanosarge1]

Just to be clear the stuttering you see in the gameplay isn't the computers fault. It's the recording software which he set to low so that it wouldn't be too much of a bottleneck.

[@comptvlee]

+Kawaiiden sorry! It just takes works. These build usually take us weeks to build. And there's always new sales. Newest vid coming next week is similar, and the budget is even better.

[@simonblumberg1572]

It's so annoying when people say, I got this on black Friday, or ebay

[@KurtisTheLoyalBriton]

Sorry you cannot buy stuff on sale because you decided to buy a console costing £400-£450 and not find things that are good for the money you pay.

[@maxamphetamines]

you have to know your way around pcs, and have to look on craigslist and facebook marketplace. the only way to get a console killer for under 500 is to work.

[@goodnightnathan]

For Cities Skylines, you don't need high FPS, 16 FPS seems decent enough.

[@arissulistyo4051]

I just have the same thinking until someone spit it out first. I will build this if the total price is really true 250$. The better possible choice is that i will buy cheapo second dell optiplex with i5 then put some low power graphic.

Is that me or overwatch was lagging at 40 fps

is the zotac gtx 1050 ti better? and i3-6100 processor?

[@tand.1311]

Of course it is, but if you are getting a 1050 ti, make sure it has 4 gb of memory. If you can invest a bit more, I suggest a 1060 (3 of 6 gb) or a rx480/470. (please don't mind my terrible grammar)

[@ItsFoxBit]

Amazing build for $250! I paid around $300 for a Pentium G4500, 8GB DDR4, Z170 Gigabyte Mobo for K series upgradability, and my Corsair case (excact same one you used in this video) I could have paid less for used parts but I wanted to be able to nicely upgrade and get all the latest features. And I got an EVGA GTX 1050 Ti for Christmas :D

[@comptvlee]

Noice, congratulations!!! That's a smart investment for upgrades, too. Thanks for sharing, boss.

[@StephenYT.]

SlyFox waste of money you can buy a complete workstation Dell with xeon w3540 for less than 100$ instead of useless pentium

[@ItsFoxBit]

Stephen Yeah but it's gonna use a ton more power and you won't have any upgradability, or at least decent upgradability.

[@StephenYT.]

ton of energy? You have no idea how many years are used to recover the money in electricity bills compared to the less cost of old hardware. actually on a cheap x58 workstation it's possibile upgrade cpu until x5690 a beast six core. I have buy for a total cost of 250$ components like Dell with Xeon w3540, 12gb ddr3 1333, samsung 830 128gb, hdd 500gb, gtx 660 evga ftw and gamepad

[@StormyIV]

comptv Thanks! You're videos are awesome by the way :) One last question. What would be the cheapest CPU you would recommend to pair with a GTX 770? Mainly for Battlefield 1

[@LuvIsRage]

I feel like using Black Friday prices were not very good...

[@comptvlee]

Sorry you think that, but I assure you, these deals happen year round

[@sebstins]

I like how Lee is so concentrated while playing the games.

[@comptvlee]

the grind is real.

[@Techformative557]

If anyone was asking..the 770 is comparable to a 1050..going price for one of those is around 80$ and when OC'd it can equal a 1050ti ...draws lotta power though

[@Aydn999]

Not to hate but dont put in games that arent even on console if you gonna call it the "console killer"

[@comptvlee]

+To All Kind that's actually a very valid point. Thanks for your input bro

To All Kind And why not? Console fans always try and use the "but muh exclusives" argument every time they have a console vs PC debate.

[@MitchOnYouTube]

Zazzilas Arden You can't compare

[@ZazzilasArden]

[@JonathanX95xboxlive]

My PC is almost the same in the video for $250 as well! I have the same i5 2400 cpu, 8 gigs of RAM, but i'm rocking a $60 GTX 750 ti and let me tell you. I can't find a game that I can't run. Black Ops 3, Battlefield 4, Rocket League, GTA V, Skyrim. Those games all run fine, except GTA V i have to crank the texture settings down to Medium to hit 60+ fps.

January of this year i bought a complete Dell Optiplex 790MT. Over the last 5 months i've upgraded the PS with an EVGA 400W, A PNY 120GB SSD for boot drive (stock 300GB HDD is now a game drive) I also am running a Zotac GTX750TI and additional 4 gigs of RAM (4 G stock). The only non essential thing i've added was a Blu-Ray Drive so i can rip Blu- rays (my use i don't re-sell). All told i spent around 345.00, on this setup. It runs what i want, without troubles. I am planning to start playing GTA5 later this year so planning an upgrade to a 1050 GTX GPU. But all told, i'm happy with the speed and performance, of this 6+ year old computer. I call my build Ebay, because with the exception of two things so far(A 2.5 drive adapter tray and additional HDD tray, bought on Amazon). everything else was bought on Ebay

[@polariaosu]

I know, a 1050 Ti costs almost as much as this entire build, and the more expensive ones ARE more expensive than the build

[@superweirdo225]

1050 isnt comparable to consoles. People really dont give consoles enough credit for how stable the FPS is most of the time. Sure, sometimes it will have frame dips, but the games are optimized to hold 30 or 60 fps well.

[@PowerHamster]

But if we consider paying online gaming on consoles, unability to buy games cheaper (instant gaming) or even pirate them, then you can build a pc for the same price but to play 60fps on max settings so... yeah, not going to even think about buying console.

Cool Build. This is very similar to my budget build, heres what I did: FIRST on ebay I ordered a Lenovo Power Supply Adapter Cable 24 pin to 14 pin; I reused the Lenovo H50 4th Gen motherboard, i bought an i5 4th gen cpu (u can spend a little more and either buy a 4th gen used i7 or used 4th gen Xeon cpu), I reused the stock lenovo cpu fan & stock aluminum square finned cooler which uses metal bolts instead of those stupid weak intel plastic screws, i bought a rear case fan 92mm, bought 8gb ram, bought a standard aftermarket 450w power supply and threw away the 180w OEM (NOTE techdeals says if its a 300W OEM power supply you can keep it & use it with a gtx1050), i bought a used gtx 1050ti 4gb, 64gb ssd for boot, 1000tb hard drive for steam library, reused the dvd drive, reused the lenovo h50 case and be careful because you will cut your hands up several times jeejee. Im getting 45 to 60fps on High 1080 in Dying Light, Boots OK into both Remix 3 OS & Pepermint 7 OS. PLEASE NOTE I heard amd gpu sometimes wont work properly with certain oem boards and they wont boot up if u try to dual boot into a Linux Distro, also in the bios dont forget to set BOOT to legacy mode. For microatx cases I kinda like either the 'Masterbox Lite 3' or 'Mastercase Pro 3'. Hope that helps someone. Uuuuh did anyone else notice that he forgot to install the IO Panel 'before' installing the motherboard? jeejee XD

[@anticyclingclub]

One thing, people forget one major selling point for consoles, SIZE! If your going to make a PC for killing consoles, make it small. Although because Mini ITX case markets are so small it makes sense that you used a larger case.

[@peaj4812]

The list still holds up pretty well, the GPU throws it off as well as the case, but get a case that is still around $25 and the RAM prices have gone down, so by my calculations it would be still be around $253 buying everything from eBay.

The arcticle says that they reserve cores and then says how many MS and SONY reserve for their systems respectively. Just a reading misunderstanding on your part. BTW while rewatching I noticed you said the i5 2400 is hyperthreaded which it is not. Not trying to be smartass here, I really like your channel, just make sure to double check your script and facts (or add the little self insulting texts to correct yourself, these are always fun and a mistake may slip by here and there).

Dusk Gaming battlefront 2 LUL

[@angelguzman7838]

no it won't run since it needs a lot of ram

[@evanduffy714]

It won't run good but it might run decently, Battlefront 2's minimum ram requirement is 8gb which this system has and you could probably even get 16gb if you stretched the budget just a little bit. The graphics card meets the recommended requirements, however, your CPU would be falling behind a bit. Overall you could probably hit 30fps on 1080p in less intense spots, but you wouldn't be able to sustain it completely.

+Granger Gamer a second hand Intel cheap and mobo. The fastest amd chips arent worth it imo

[@grangergamer4057]

i5?

[@comptvlee]

+Granger Gamer oh yeah

[@MrSamadolfo]

Ryzen 5

[@hudanradifan]

How can u play overwatch like that lol

[@perezident14]

WhiteTiger PSN is it really high settings on console?! It feels lower when switching back and forth between PC and console. PC runs 100x smoother regardless 👌

[@tostcudede1332]

WhiteTiger PSN I think only the render is high,the game looks like mid/low

[@ZazzilasArden]

WhiteTiger PSN Only the render is high on console for Overwatch. The actual graphics settings are set to medium. There are several comparison videos that phenaggle with the PC settings to make it look identical, and that's what every single one of them has to do to make them look exactly the same. It's not that the console's GPU can't handle high graphics on Overwatch, but unfortunately the console CPUs are so excruciatingly underclocked that they literally bottleneck the whole system.

[@lex794]

Zazzilas Arden actually(at least the ps4) does not a have a graphics card and uses integraded graphics but better then the ones on pc.

[@ZazzilasArden]

LEX No, it has an APU. It's similar, but different.

[@Kilroy_5150]

I got a Dell 7010 (with i7 & 16GB ram) for $125 and dropped in the 4GB Zotac low profile (from Amazon) for $68 (package crumple discount) and i play all those games myself. I traded power for pretty in your case. I don't need a system that glows different colors to feel like a gamer though. I own a few Lenovos myself (even a killer 430u laptop, i7) but i went with Dell in this case and haven't regretted it. Later on i dropped in a 2TB SSD & i'm rocking all those games even faster now for about the same $250 he's talking about :) So, i guess my title would be "beyond ultimate for $250" :D

[@comptvlee]

+Jeff Vaughn ayyyy nice bro Hanks for sharing. Send pics on twitter!

[@skatcat743]

I was able to build a similar pc but with a i3-2120 that came with a motherboard ram harddrive with windows on it a case and powersupply for only 100$ Then found an rx460 for a good price then sold the entire system for 250$ but I had fun building it and the guy I sold it to was cool

[@gwn9161]

Or you can buy a used ps4 for 150.-

[@comptvlee]

Yeah you can!

[@InfamousMango123]

yeah and you could pay $60 year for multiplayer

[@roaringmusic1472]

+Gwn yes you can.. ..and not get the features of a gaming pc ;)

[@sicaqueen3884]

Yeah, and play at 30 fps

[@okioki1131]

I have a Ryzen 7 1800x and a 1080TI watercooled build... and I STILL like my console too :D.

[@trailerparkgarage6574]

My computer scored a 617 with Dual Intel Xeon X5460 Quad Cores, 20gb ram, and a GTX 1050

[@theodoros_1234]

I'm new here, and it looks like you make good videos. You earned a subscriber.

[@comptvlee]

+Theodoros Nicolaou thanks man. That means a whole lot!

[@CrevYT]

Thanks man this may be my first build thankfully you gave us this video :)

[@nevermore5216]

thank i was using this pcpartpicker before this and my pc was 1153.49

[@orionstar3310]

Finally someone knows how to get a bargain.

[@brandonscully4993]

That motion blur on OW and Doom made me want me to die

[@nolan6132]

Any people thinking of doing this should keep in mind that you also need to buy an OS, a keyboard and mouse, and a monitor which together could cost around 300$

[@chrif3398]

I have not seen a green motherboard since I had a 30 pound tan box running windows XP sitting in my kitchen.

[@TheThunderwars]

I would have probably buy an aftermarket cooler for the CPU. I did the same but it costs me less than 80 bucks. An HP benicia 1.01 with its case, 8gb of DDR2 800MHz, a core 2 quad 9500 overclocked to 3.4 GHz and a RX460 GB which was the most expensive here. It games very well. It was for fun though since I already had a I7 5820k and all the high end parts with it.

[@tmaaenl]

The 1050 is a great grab, solid 60 at med to high settings

[@MrRooibos123]

I'm building this PC. Thanks a bunch mate!!!

[@RoomerJ]

Beat drops at 5:40 if anyone was wondering.

[@wika1984]

Props to you, but I have to say, it's not really a console killer especially if you have to factor in peripherals like a kb+m since a console comes with a controller. Console subscription fee is equal to that of anti-virus subscription. You should've went for the rx460 for slightly better performance even for a Black Friday sale.

[@comptvlee]

+Y U No Get Gud yeah I was willing to pay the extra $15 or so for the 1050 because at the time of the video it was the better card in pretty much every game. Not sure if driver updates changed that though

[@xCCflierx]

I plan on buying a case on craigslist. Hopefully full of old parts to sell. been looking at $10 broken pcs that I can loot the case and sell the drives and psu

[@hunterdivirgilio2209]

when u accidentally click this video and its ur exact build

[@itsneight1260]

Nice video and a decent computer. I started with a similar (but even older cpu) build for my first one... Q6600 GTX 750ti. Have barely $100 in the entire thing and its plays games very well.

[@willpersigehl6031]

yo im not even paying attention to the fps in the RL gameplay. im paying attention to that amazing shot. god dang

[@francoiscampher6462]

Like your channel bro, pretty cool. High quality.

[@comptvlee]

+Tad Strange I like this comment, cool name. Classy. ❤

[@francoiscampher6462]

+comptv Thanks!

[@pr0tored129]

hey, I was watching the video and had a question. I notice you're not wearing an anti-static wrist band, yet every guide I've read on building a PC encourages you to wear one. Were you using the alternate grounding method with plugging the PSU in and whatnot?

[@simsized197]

I'm making a PC with a budget of 300$ Canadian, just bought the main prebuilt pc which is an optiplex and I'm waiting for it to arrive then il buy upgrades

[@monsterfukk7737]

Actual price of this build on pcpartpicker.com: $514.62. The CPU and GPU alone are $300. Budget PC gaming is a myth.

[@Chris-tk9hy]

Don't you hate it when KZbin won't let you see upcoming scenes in the time-bar.

[@danielzhang5842]

Hey remember me comptv? I had been watching a lot of videos like these but I'm not sure which to get. I play Minecraft, League of Legends and wanted at least 60 fps at high settings. What would you recommend?

[@angelusnielson7135]

"On black Friday" Really dude? Yah YOU got it for this price... It's May currently. What about the rest of us?

[@christianleierer7689]

Where did you buy the parts? I'm looking for a cheap, good build for a semi-beginner PC Gamer and I think this is the one.

[@ramibos6549]

Second hand market is huge there. Over here i5 2400 costs like 80 bucks and no way to find quality PSU under 50. In this build would defo go for Ti 4gb video

[@comptvlee]

+Rami Bos I would definitely pick the RX 470 at that price point. Not a huge fan of the 1050ti
