Young PC Builder Got SCAMMED! Let's Help him out!

[@ThePcRehab]

Quite a few people have asked what our young gentleman paid for the original system. $140 was the original purchase price 🫶

[@TheGameBench]

Had the motherboard not been borked... it would have been a good price.

[@MrSamadolfo]

😒👍 fair price, next time dont assume anything, u have alot of scum bags out here selling their trash, Trust But Verify, tell the dude to power it up for you, if he doesnt want u in his house then setup a lab in the backyard or something but if hes giving u the run around then walk away, The Juice isnt Worth The Squeeze 🍊🍋

[@jollysword]

And while you're at it, please send some spare parts to him, too. The kid needs all the help he can get.

[@MichaelDean1]

Good job helping the kid out. Not knowing what he paid for it, $750 would be my selling point.I always Start higher and adjust the price accordingly if it doesn't sell quickly. Good luck!

[@danthompsett2894]

looks wise for guiliblle people who dont know anything about pc's yeah probably, but its made from used and a few new parts and rtx 2060 as good as it is, its a dated budget card, i think if your honest to customers $750 is optimistic and you shouldnt teach dishonesty.

[@Furball-8994]

@@danthompsett2894 When you look at "price to performance", I'd say it would cost you around $800-$1000 for a comparable "new" system. $750 gives him room to negotiate. He has a total of $340 into it, If it sells for $550, He makes $210 and the buyer saves $200. Win-Win.

[@GameOverAus]

Your personality is so infectious and you are such a great guy. This has quickly become a must watch channel :)

[@ThePcRehab]

Wow, thank you! That means so much!!!

[@shanemcknight1583]

Turned out awesome! I would say to sell $550-$500 to hopefully get his client base started

[@BobosBox]

My man Ryan took the CPU, RAM and storage and threw them in a fantastic build as always. Extra points for helping out the kid!

[@ThePcRehab]

🫡

[@TheGameBench]

I love every part of this, save for this kid getting scammed. It turned out awesome and should net him some good profit.

[@TBRANN]

What did he spend on the original omen?(so it was $140) I'd list it for around $650 and negotiate down if need be, great build!

[@Mainonaise]

Honestly, I like this style of vids way better. Do it more!

[@ThePcRehab]

You got it!

[@KO_GAMA]

Great to know you are getting sponsorships! Keep up the work man

[@MaxskiSynths]

[@ThePcRehab]

RIGHT!?!?!???!?!

[@nefaricius8627]

good stuff, Gingerbeard

[@ShadowCloudReformed]

YESSSSS. This is what I am talking about!!! I love seeing content like this !!!! We need more people like this in the friggin community !

[@ThePcRehab]

If you like this one you will love the newest upload 😉

[@chrispittmanComputing]

$575 would be a great starting price for that system.

[@GaahlDukat]

I'd for sure list it for $575 and let someone talk you down to $500 and always let the customer know that you're going to be there after the sale for any tip, tricks or troubleshooting. One of my main selling points....

[@ThePcRehab]

Great advice my dude

[@jamesolcott4388]

I'm Glad yopu were able to help the kid. I hope the system sells for a good ammount of moeny to keep his momentum going. Lets hope he learned from yopur toutering. Well done Young man.

[@joshthebutchergibson3218]

Just finished my first flip build and listed it! Thanks for all the helpful content as always man!

[@ThePcRehab]

That is awesome!!!!!! Did you post it in discord?

[@vdvd2090]

A small advice is that you don't have to/shouldn't put fans under the gpu like cases like this. In a dual chamber case the fans can intake fresh air and help with the gpu temp but in a case like in the video the psu is right under the fans and the fans doesn't have enough space to get fresh air from, and the air it blows to the gpu would just be the stale hot air already inside the case. For most pc cases, 2 intakes and 1 exhaust would be enough.

[@Tac_3403]

I prefer this format, the other videos are just too long imo. they are hard to focus on when its 25 minutes of b-roll and timelapse. 15 minute mark hits the spot perfectly!

[@thecomputersurgeon]

Sometimes updating the VBIOS on the graphics card will let it work in this kind of situtation. I've had this with a Fury X before - something to do with these motherboards forcing UEFI mode (?) New PC looks great! Keep up the great content :)

[@annareismith6843]

I put a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE ARGB CPU Cooler in my PC and I love it. My AMD R9 5900X gets very hot and with that I had no problems with over heating. All the parts in my gaming PC were high-priced. It was nice to have one part that was not.

[@ThePcRehab]

I love the Thermalright products. I use them all the time because the price is great and the performance is fantastic for that price. I just hope they never raise those prices lol

[@dozer4981]

I'd list it for 550$ with the thinking of someone offering 500$ which would be my bottom line

[@blindtechh]

Great build, I’d list it for 550

[@L8R-]

Hi Ryan idk if u remember me I was like commenting in every single video some time ago, just got really busy and didn't have the time to watch your videos, I still see the amazing content that you have been uploading. Pushing to 15K!!!

[@ThePcRehab]

Hey dude! Welcome back! Real life over the internet all day! Good to see you are still around my dude!

[@MlemDotaPersonal]

Hey, just wanted to say that as far as I know you can use power supplies with only a 4 pin CPU connector on a board with an 8 pin, you just plug in the 4 pins and it works totally fine as long as you aren't pulling enough power to require the 8 pin. So PSU probably could have been used. But I'm sure you'll find a use for that original PSU anyway. Good video :)

[@ThePcRehab]

Yeah you can use the 4 pin but how would I pump more voltage to that older cpu if I only had 4 power pins ;)

[@manuelsiongco]

Ginger beard😊😊😊😊.. Ryan very nice work 👌👌👌👌

[@ThePcRehab]

Thank you 😁

[@aprilwilt3798]

500-525$ seems about right imo

[@steveseybolt]

That is a Beautiful build. 600.00 would be a good price.

[@HetZieltje]

this is at most a €650 list in my market

[@OwenRodgers-sq9es]

I was 13 when I built my PC which was actually quite recently also I used all used parts luckily I did not get scammed I fell so bad for this kid

[@psttech4290]

its a lesson he needed to learn in this business....

[@MrDonangelico]

low end suggestion for my area of California would be 450. I'd say to localize your price to your area. if your competitors are selling for 550 then try to keep it close. you don't want to lose money flipping it too low

[@rabidwallaby84]

That Omen case isn't bad to look at, and the airflow will be more than adequate for the Ryzen 2700.

[@raulkasa3442]

Good man🎉

[@csjpokey]

Should have let him do it on his own. Would have been a good learning experience.

[@ThePcRehab]

He only had a flip budget of $60. That would not have gotten him far. Now that he will make some good money off this build he can afford to flip his next pc

[@TheBoss8960]

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Ryan you're doing the lords work, and best of luck to the young gentleman 🙌

[@ThePcRehab]

Haha thank you my dude!

[@peterhopfe3511]

Nice video Ryan!

[@ThePcRehab]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@TheHardneckmc]

You dont need a 8pin cpu the 4pin works fine 8 pin only if your going overclock, did you try replacing the cmos battery? Hp bios are wierd you probably needed the original gpu in there to access the bios to switch settings to support other GPU.

[@Hostyl176]

I wonder if it's not that there is something "wrong" with the mobo, but rather that the mobo BIOS locks out certain GPUs. I remember that being an issue with some Dell desktops not being able to fully boot with certain graphics cards. I'd wager if you had used that 2060 as the "known good" GPU it would have worked.

[@antonbuettner9451]

im currently starting pc flipping and i got luckily many parts if sth doesnt work i got like one keyboard 8 drr4 6 ddr3 6 ddr2 6 different sodimm ram stick a few psu mainboard and cpu all for the price of 25 bucks and when I added 45 bucks i got a booster gtx 960 card too i dont even know what to do witnall that

[@berkant_k]

You didn't really need to replace the PSU becasue of it only having a 4-pin CPU power connector, because most Boards with the 8-pin one would still work fine with just the 4-pins from the PSU.

[@ThePcRehab]

Of course I had to! How else would I pump more voltage into that cpu ;)

[@jacksonbtb571]

I actually just picked up an HP omen 30l to recase it and upgrade. The motherboard in mine only supports ryzen 5 3500 up to ryzen 9 3900, there is zero support for anything older or newer. That omen board might still work but only with a Ryzen 3000 series chip. Really weird there was a 2700X in there, I don't think the 30L ever had a config with that in it

[@ThePcRehab]

Yeah I read the same thing while doing my research, I had a 3700x that I tested in it as well as a 5600x and still nothing. Pretty sure that board was toast

[@Adam-Mei]

$575 to $775 and be willing to negotiate down to $500-$750 depending on original price spent. Not including shipping.

[@rabidwallaby84]

You can buy all of those parts used/new for less than $500. I just put together a 3600 w/ 32GB RAM, 3070 & 2x 1TB NVME for $600 CANADIAN

[@Adam-Mei]

@@rabidwallaby84 Yes you can. Yet, having it pre-built for some people is worth it. I made a little extra money back years ago by building rigs.

[@ReaperReef]

Did you remove the battery to reset the cmos? Did the motherboard offer a flashback option?

[@ThePcRehab]

No flashback, tried 1st-5th gen CPUs in it, cleared cmos as well as jumpers. It was finished

[@pfoxessjd]

Open it at $900 then lowest he can sell it is probably $800-850ish

[@thompi8]

you dont need a 8pinn cpu you can run on a 4 pin also :D

[@antonyjharper31]

Looks like 800!

[@Morys1990]

Great vid, love watching your content. If i can ask, what would you pair with r5 3600? Currently using GTX 1650 and looking for an upgrade. Whats the Best GPU you would pair with this cpu?

[@ThePcRehab]

A 6700xt would be a nice option. Not to expensive as you can find them for around $250 on the used market and would provide a nice boost to preformance

[@MrSamadolfo]

🙂 dont forget to upgrade your power supply, u have a bus powered card rite now so I assume u got something tiny

[@Morys1990]

It's a 500w psu, from what i've read it's decent. But thx for the remider. What would be a decent nvidia option? 3060? Or you think with a decent psu i could aim higher?

[@MrSamadolfo]

@@Morys1990 with only a 500w power supply i think a safer option would be any video card that uses a single 8 pin plug, for example a 3060 12gb or 6700 10GB would be safe, that would put you somewhere around 275 watts pulling from the wall, should be nice and safe, and im assuming your power supply is OK according the PSU TIER LIST? Is it listed at least in the C category?

[@Morys1990]

Would be sad if my psu would kill my GPU right after upgrade, guess i'll change it first. Just checked and it's a D tier. Not worth to risk.... hope i'll find some decent deal. This whole PC with ryzen 5 3600, gtx 1650, 16gb 3200MHz ram, 480gb m.2 ssd, and a320 mobo was 150$. Thanks for those tips

[@rappidralph8863]

Somewhere between £600__£800 that would be about right.

[@robertlucke4964]

Great video Ryan 600 dollars for this pc all day

[@phantomfreq]

I say a fair price for it is about $600 so I would list it at $650 and maybe settle at like $550-$600. And goodluck with the sale bud.

[@JuiceboxDesmond]

That would sell for $650-700 all day long.

[@Mr.Silver12]

where is the "PC YOU NEVER BEEN SEEEN" ?

[@ThePcRehab]

Comes out next week ;)

[@Jumbro6]

Out of the old build all that was kept: cpu, ram, storage. Kind of funny but that’s really all you can take out of OEM systems if it doesn’t have a great gpu. And trying to sell the rest on eBay. OEM route is not worth it!

[@dreadtrain2846]

In my area that would be posted for $2000. I wish I was joking.

[@Myserieden]

So I searched what you could build it for. I’d go with $650 as your goal price. You can list higher but accept offers at or above your goal price.

[@billlam7756]

Remmeber " high end pc, barely used like new" 😂

[@hasanmich1504]

you pretty much just built a new PC lol

[@ThePcRehab]

And?

[@danthompsett2894]

Given the high quality of the build and the parts used I should think $350-400 would be a good asking price, but its hard to say with used and new parts combined, my intial thoughts where did it need a bios update and what about a cmos clear, but the proprietary nature of the power supply, heatsink and motherboard which lets be honest is all pretty sucky, stock intel mounting style heatsink, motherboard which probably has quite a sh$tty power delivery VRM system considering it only uses 4pin eps stead of 8pin eps unless its highly energy efficient, 500 watt power supply that only has a 4pin eps, and all honesty i havent used less than 600watts since 1990's/00's average these days is 850watt, least to be sure it will work well with most CPU/GPU's combo's.

[@Gxkx_Blxck]

Start at 600 and go down Till 500minimum

[@Sketchschmidt]

do we know how much he sold it for ?

[@ThePcRehab]

I honestly have no clue haha

[@dobo_plays3534]

Ginger Beard the pirate rrrrrrr 😍

[@DuneRunnerEnterprises]

You DO realise,that there ARE 4 to 8 pin cpu power converters??

[@ThePcRehab]

Not a wise decision if you plan on pumping that cpu with a heavy overclock

[@ivelinivanov3414]

Bro, everything is new on that system lol, there's not much left of the Omen, except the hard drives 😅 It's not just the CPU cooler, the fans and the cable extensions. You changed the case, too. The GPU, the motherboard etc. Yeah you may have gotten those for free or cheap but they still have an actual value or cost that if someone were to do this flip will have to pay. You have to take into account the current cost of the parts you're using. You can subtract the cost of the parts you're saving from the Omen PC that you think you can use for another build or sell. I think that would be more fair estimate of the earnings. With that said, love your videos! Keep going! 💪

[@tackboyyy3624]

Hello The PcRehab I was wondering if you could donate any of your unused graphics card as I was also scammed when I bought my first pc that always blue screen I am am still looking through ways to fix it and I would really appreciate rhe graphics car any graphics car because the graphics I am using are from the cpu my cpu is the intel platinum g630
