I just built a blue themed PC with this Sparkle B580 card inside of the Blue Montech King 95 Case, along with CableMod Modmesh Blue/black sleeved cables and the Cooler Master Vertical GPU Holder Kit V3 and it looks awesome. Obviously more expensive than this build but man it looks good
Great build! 🔥 The Intel Arc B580 paired with the i5-12400F is such an underrated combo for budget gaming. The Cooler Master Q300L V2 case really adds a sleek touch too! Curious-what kind of performance are you seeing in AAA games with this setup? Would love to hear your benchmarks!
"This is a computer that will last someone into 2026, 2027...." My last computer just died in december and was built in 2013. I just built a new one that can be upgraded for at least 4-5 years and should last me 10-15.
The B580 won't be able to perform that well with that 12400F in some games. It's not clear exactly how many games are going to have problems with that CPU, but Baldur's Gate 3 is a very good example (and a very popular and highly rated game).
Indie review was pretty disingenuous, didn’t go outside and it was stuttering bad indoors - card benefits from amd frame gen in some cases more than intels - would’ve been good to know cpu/gpu utilization during
Upgrades are myth, thats why: - most of the people, real people who works on usual jobs(not streamers, "influencers" and other onlyfans bullshit) build their PC at least for 5 years ahead - for the time of upgrade tech changes dramatically RAM, storege, ports, pcie v ect - newest parts always beat their predicessors by efficiency and performance - newest parts almost always cost the same or nearly the price of used top gen for the moment of upgrading What people can let in for the new build, and usually do: - PSU - Chassi - pereferal - monitors All other stuff goes away.
@ and you now have new CPU but no m.2 PCIe 4x4 slots, old Ethernet port, old buildin wifi and lot of other features(yeah mb you don't need them, but you don't have any of it because motherboard is old) And DDR5 time, it's faster. Economy of ~150 Euro for loosing all these features - it's cheap, why then bother at all and buy new processor if you always could buy old one but the beefier?
@@FabioBannet well, I have M2 slot on the mb and a 2.5G ethernet and a wifi PCI card. For my 6700xt pcie 3x16 is plenty enough. Granted I only get 3.5GB/s on my M2 but even with my Database/backend dev work I am not bottle necked there
@@loicjeannin6233 I have 4x4 m.2 slots, 2 ssds for now(Samsung 980 500GB - boot drive, 990 pro 4tb), 1 HHD for 4tb and 1 sata Samsung 970 EVO - and now I'm thinking about adding one more 4 TB SSD - because what I have is close to the full capacity. What I'm talking about - M.2 slots are progressing and for now PCIe 4 cheaper with high capacity then older and newer models, but in next 2-3 year it will be PCIe 5, they will have higher capacity for less money.
too bad Intel paper launched this card with no stock. Got a lot of good press for the MSRP, but good luck finding a card for that lol. The whole thing is a sham.
Would love to see the parts list. We have certain non-negotiable hardware things when we make these. Has to be a good PSU, at least 32GB of RAM, 1TB NVMe and case can’t make you never want to build a PC. Also no TEMU or Ali Express all parts are from standard companies.

Solid vid man. I enjoyed your building process and the quick testing. Straight to the point
Glad you liked it!

cool stuff bro. keep on keeping on. i liked & subscribed!
sensei at it
i have seen instances where people claim that tempered glass pc side panels just explode
Microcenter got them b580s just picked one up.
No gaming benchmarks?

Somebody gotta show me where you biy one of these for 250 bucks
I just ordered the Acer variant for 280 on Newegg. They told me it will arrive February 6th 😮
Imma build this once I get my paycheck
I would suggest spending a bit more for a better motherboard and one that supports ddr5. would cost like 50-100 more but would be a lot better
@@cademckenna863 For a build that costs less than 1000$, those 50-100$ could be used for a better gpu or cpu...
@@cademckenna863 then you gotta spend more on ddr5 ram
NewEgg has B580 in stock now just bought Acer B580 tonight

wrong, the driver overhead is exclusive to old amd chips. 12400f will have 0 issues
Wrong, that cpu will have literally zero issues.
This video card is a myth. Lol, I want a founders edition for MSRP!
Good luck finding a Battle Image for 250 💀

You obviously don't pay attention to hardware surveys
I upgraded my am4 b450m based pc multiple times in 4 years: ram increase, 2 cpu upgrades, 1 gpu upgrade. I dont know what you are talking about.

it comes in stock once a week for about a day on newegg. Just gotta be vigilant!
lol can make ddr5 in this budjet with 14400f
