As someone with a high end PC, I love these ultra budget builds. I wish there was more focus on them as it shows that the cost of entry does not need to be high.
I'm so happy I went second hand. Manged to get my dream rtx 3090ti i912900k build for £1,100. Think I save around 1.25k. But then spent it to upgrade my setup lol
For £550 you can comfortably get a Ryzen 5500 and Arc A580 system, with a 650W PSU, mesh case, and 1TB SSD. Could probably get it under £500 if you're hot on deals. I'd say that's the play! Maybe I should do that?..., 🤔
yer its not a great build i got a 7500f , 32gb 6200hz ram and motherboard and 6600xt for around £550 yes thats not including the psu and hardrive but most people can use their old computer bits like i have and have much better gaming computer
Better still you can get a 5500 rx6600 build with 32gb ram and 1tb ssd NEW for less than £550. if you're willing to buy a few parts used you can get even better. uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/2ZDmJy
hey dude, i just want to thank you for all the information i got on pc gaming because im new to it. now i found out that its very easy to build my first gaming pc!
I actually done this R5 build last month for my daughter... She loved it, I was Meh so I put in a gtx1650 just for a little extra... But it's a great windows 11 desktop for the family and plays games... Whats not to like
Definitely a good option for someone who's going to upgrade in the near future but otherwise a ryzen 5 4500 and rx 6600 build would cost the same and massively outperform this for gaming. Not a fan of the psu choice, that thing is F tier, there are C tier power supplies for the same price.
I have this motherboard and I built my PC without updating the bios first. Can I update it now without having to completely re-do everything I have on my computer?
I would think so as it is just an update that can be done on fully built and running systems, if you have a bios usb port and a usb it will be a lot easier. You may just have to go back into the bios and check your settings incase its reset the memory etc
@@Ladioz depends on the location especially retailing from abroad these hardwares do tend to inflate pricing beyond your pre conceived budget of course I would rather ship them overseas but the hustle in getting it to my doorstep tends to add up the overall cost hence the general skepticism.
8700g for 290€, am5 motherboard for 120-130, 2 ram for 100 and a graphics card I alrdy got/use my old one. And sure I don't have an m.2 in it, but I'll just get one later and just use one of my current SSDs.
The bare minnum spend for pc should be 800. At htis point just buy a ps5 or series s. they sell used for atleast 300. Or just save up. I saved 400 more to get my dream build. i9 10900k and rtx 3090 with 64 fgigs of ddr4 ram.
id personally get a 7600 and suffer with the weaker igpu until i can afford a 4060 just cuz the extra cache is important for me for clip studio paint, and then prolly upgrade again on zen 6
I would have gone for a cheaper PSU and the cheapest case for a 6000mhz cl30 ram kit and possibly a B650. I'd rather upgrade the case and PSU at a later stage. Likely at the time of getting a 12GB or 16GB dedicated GPU.
I have this case and hate it so much that I enlarged the front intake holes out of frustration with a drill. Don't judge me, it was cheap and I didn't have much cash in my pocket :(
I just built a $500 build with an i312100f and a 1660 Super for a friend, is that okay for 500? The price to performance seems pretty good for what it is
doesn't m2 need heatsink for gaming? my lexar m2 died in about 12 months and i really don't know the reason. i thought it was the lack of heatsink. and i only had halo infinite, OW2 and my windows 11 on it.
At the moment, I'm trying to find a good build so I can play STALKER Anomaly/Gamma/EFP. I can't even play it on this computer we bought in 2014/2015, but it works for SoC/CS/CoP and runs it well until it crashes at some point because the GPU doesn't have enough VRAM or the engine the game it is playing on crashes. I do live in New Zealand and I am finding it hard to acquire good parts that are reasonably priced, but that is not really going to be realistic at this point, considering prices are going up and some GPUs are hard to acquire. I'll get there. If anyone can help with some suggestions of parts and how much I could be looking at something between five hundred to eight hundred. Thank you!
I'm someone who doesn't care all that much about the graphics side of things 60fps would be nice but I want a pc solely for modding purposes. Would this be a good option for me anyone? I need help so bad I have no clue about pc gaming!
I have been watching your videos for about two years now. I have already, "liked' and ''subscribed' and I appreciate your, 'budget' builds, because that definition changes each year as things go up in price each year. I "imagined" and have created many builds in my head, up and down in budget large to small. When the chips are down...I don't have much money to play with...and I come down to earth. Then I arrive at, "what can I really afford?" I am still saving to build my own PC...but saving for even a 'budget' build' is still....taking a while. So it's nice to turn to you and keep in touch with what can be accomplished with what money I have...which is closer to 'nothing.' It keeps my 'budget' build, current.
Never a good idea to recommend the latest generation on a $500 build. You could’ve gotten a solid gpu in there AND all new parts if you went AM4. Could’ve had 6c/12t, 16gb ddr4, and at least a 4-6gb gpu.
Actually they aren't at all.. IF he would've used faster ram, and enabled PBO he would've got wayyy more FPS. He was barely getting 50 fps in Fortnite, and my 8600G get 80-90fps in warzone? How is that possible? I paid $480 plus tax with 6000mhz 32gb DDR5...
Imagine paying $500+ and not getting a GPU... amatuer 😂 Edit: I built one for my sister a year ago for $600ish after tax (she wanted the rgb if not for that it wouldnt even have been that much) and that included a RX 6600 and the only part that was used was the CPU. APUs are for $200-300 builds anything above $500 should have a graphics card
Interesting CPU, that build is a NOGO and a Hard Pass for me, I think that CPU should be more for non gaming netbooks and non gaming laptops and oem desktops where u can use it for light gaming. But for a custom build like the one u did it has no place, just the stuttering alone tells me this is cringe and that u can't even Gift this pc to a friend or family member and I wouldnt dare sell this to anyone even at cost, its just going to make u look bad and hurt ur reputation. Stick with a regular cpu and pickup a used video card of some sort if ur broke. Its too bad u dont have a shelf full of all the popular used cards out there so that u can quickly plug them in and give us comparisons but I guess ur viewers could just do a search for them. But yeah just look for something like a 750ti or better to get u going cause it makes no sense u got this nice size matx case and power supply where just about any old one fan or two fan old video card can easily be plugged in. Thanks for the review. Next video.
This is unfortunatelly payed sponsored review by some store!! everyone with brain knows that this apus are garbage and you cant have good gaming PC with rx 560 performance of igpu !! you will have only stuter mess and shitty low seettings

Same. Wish I used second hand parts. The amount of money I could've saved to get a better GPU

You can probably even squeeze an RTX 3060 Ti or 4060 Ti in there, depending on what the other parts are.

It's good to have a UK focused PC channel.
I really wish there were more
@@EjayT06I will make videos on cheap pcs that you can get in the uk... Because I am not rich.
There's actually quite a few out there 😅
Smaller market - but we exist!
There's loads...
It would be interesting to see how much of an impact higher performance RAM makes with those APUs. Like a comparison with 4800, 6000 and 6400 RAM.
Imagine how much faster mini pc’s or how handled gaming pc’s will become. 😅
Pls do an 800 dollar pc budget pls for making a gaming pc. I want to see if you can get a medium high settings pc
I just finished building my pc over the weekend and I was not careful enough and i cut my finger on my IO shield lol

You got a good match congracts on that epic victory!
Ryzen 5500 + A520 + 16gb ddr4 + RX 6600 + 600W PSU + 500gb ssd + case = 509 US dollars on Ama.
Thats a sweet build!
I have i5 12500+rtx 3070 + 16gb ddr4 +1.5 ssd+ case for $520 dont think anyone can beat that easily.
This about time u go to our level. High end pc content.
With the last 2 gens of AMD, use Directx 12. Works very well.
It's suggested to at least run 6000 mts cl 36 on those Apus and 6400 cl 32 or better is preferred.
I have this motherboard and I built my PC without updating the bios first. Can I update it now without having to completely re-do everything I have on my computer?

Cheap? Let's bump those numbers down those are still Master race digits
$500 is very cheap for a whole PC... considering 500 is the price for a mid range graphics card these days
wdym? rtx 307-3080 sell for around 500

A 2050 still goes for $450-$500 used here. There just aren't many gamers in my area so we hold on to our rigs longer.
No lmfao

Linus be like - why you don't use screw driver 🤣😂
Okay-- now do the upgrade path and what it would cost : )
Or brand new parts
84 degrees!
8700g for 290€, am5 motherboard for 120-130, 2 ram for 100 and a graphics card I alrdy got/use my old one. And sure I don't have an m.2 in it, but I'll just get one later and just use one of my current SSDs.

On pc outdated, it has very good pc parts prices that are outdated or brand new better pricing in 2024
My partner needs a PC now. But..... At end of month I am inheriting a 3070 will I just be able to plug that into this set up when the time comes
You're better off buying a 12100f or 12400 with a used GPU.
Can u please do a 4070ti super im going to buy one for my build of a 7950x3d
id personally get a 7600 and suffer with the weaker igpu until i can afford a 4060 just cuz the extra cache is important for me for clip studio paint, and then prolly upgrade again on zen 6
Whens the next live stream? Would you recommend using a contact frame for a i9 14000K and Asus ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO ATX LGA1700 Motherboard ?
So this crazy new apu performs worse than the 7840u that has a lower tdp? My handheld at 1080 performs a lot better lol.
Fancy doing a NAS build? 4-6 Bay for home use.
Do a $750 gaming pc build
Could someone stream with an apu? Only stream no gaming involved.
As a German.. The Nikki Lauda Joke got me off-guard
In my opinion, the ASRock B650M Pro RS is a far better value at 135$ with 3 m.2 slots and wifi.
feel like thet will be a good option in a few years when the prices drop or new one comes out
just built a PC with an rtx 3070 for 500$. used that same case
I Feel we have different opinions about budget because anytime you say budget the price be saying otherwise 💀
Build a pc with console preference with the same as the APU. I would like to see a video from you on it
Good video.
I would have gone for a cheaper PSU and the cheapest case for a 6000mhz cl30 ram kit and possibly a B650. I'd rather upgrade the case and PSU at a later stage. Likely at the time of getting a 12GB or 16GB dedicated GPU.
with 8600G you cannot have good gaming PC without discrete gpu !! its like saying that you have good gaming PC with rx 560 in 2024
in my opinion, the ASRock B650M Pro RS is a far better value at 135$ with wifi and 3 m.2 slots on a matx board.
they're great boards but usually out of stock in our markets if you want to buy it new

What would be a good GPU for the 8600g?
Are you able to individually upgrade each item?
If you keep adding RAM or upgrade the GPU when do you know to update the CPU or other components?
🤔 what do you do with most of these systems you end up building? Is there like a museum lol?

Hell no. Over $600 for an APU build is wild.
You can get a better CPU/GPU combo for less than those apu's.
These apu's are not for gaming.
