    One thing to consider: the "ancient ports" are there because many of the business units are industrial, and may have hardware that requires PS2, Serial, and VGA connections.

      "many of the business" LOL yeah sure.. "may have hardware" of course buddy. the points is 98% of motherboards since 2011 should not have PS2 ports... and there should only be some motherboards with horrible aesthetics and strange prices specifically for the industrial or medical work sector... but that is not the case.

      PS/2 ports are there for some work environments to disable USB ports for security and still have a functional PC (e.g hospitals, defense companies). Modern ASUS motherboards for industrial / OEM use still have 2 PS/2 ports for this reason

    I know it's a bit of an unfair advantage but I built a system similar to this using an HP prodesk of some sort that I got for free from a local office when they were doing a clean out of old systems. It had an i7 6700, 32gb ddr4 RAM, and a 400w 80+ gold power supply. I spent about $150 to get a gtx 1660 super and a 1tb ssd, which is the best I could squeeze into the system without needing a better power supply. It absolutely crushes games at 1080p.

      Lol. On a similar story, one of the companies i work with was tossing out a "defective" pc, they told me i could have it, just in case there were parts i could use. The pc was built inside a cheap low profile case..
      When i tested it, it would not boot... i re--seated the memory ram and it worked LOL. It ended up being an i7 8700, with 1 stick of 8gb ram, on a very smal h81 mobo, and it even had a wifi card. The system booted straight into the bios, but i just had to select the ssd as boot drive... Yes it came with a 240gb ssd and 1 tb hdd! Crazy!.
      The thing is tho... i took out all the components and put them in a better case and flipped them for a profit, from which i bought a 5600g and 16 gb of ram, b550 mobo with wifi, and an nvme 500gb. I put all in the same case, to wich i added a handle, and attacked a laptop screen 15.6", to make an "all in one" pc that could run games.
      Later tho, i sold the internals again LOL. And now that pc has an i5 12400f, 1tb nvme, 2x8gb ram sticks, and an rtx 4060 low profile LOL.

      $150 is a bit much to pay for a 1660 Super but OP's build is only $100 because of a unicorn deal. Meanwhile, I theoretically could have built a machine with an i7-4790S and a 2060 this year for right at $200 and crushed it even harder than you. I paid $120 for the 2060 6GB that was used for mining; I had to refurbish it but it scores very well on benchmarks. The machine I actually built has a 670 SC for playing older and vintage games on digital services that now need Windows 10. But that GPU cost $25. The rest of the system was $75. I didn't get any unicorn deals but I got good deals on everything. Deals most people could get with a small amount of effort. So if I put my $120 2060 in there, it would be a solid budget 1080p machine for $200.
      OP is definitely losing out on frames because of the non-HT quad core. Skylake was a dead generation - essentially no better performing than Haswell. Same feature set. Generally an abortion of a generation. The only thing more pathetic were the Broadwell dual core i7 mobile CPUs. And, of course, all of the 13th and 14th gen CPUs are more pathetic than that. They will all fail prematurely.

    Honestly it's impressive to get a machine together for just a hundred bucks, bit realistically I'd recommend saving up another hundred. With a 200 buck budget you could upgrade the gpu to something like a 1660 super/ti and get a reasonable bump on the gpu end, and could possible squeeze in a used 6700 cpu, which has hyper threads which would sure up the 1% lows you were seeing.
    Honestly 200 is probably the more realistic super budget goal to aim for if someone were realistically looking to game on a budget system.

I sold one a few months ago, custom build with an i7 6700 and an RX580 8GB, and it was capable of running Starfield with medium settings, I tried a 2070 Super in it, and the bottle neck wasn't as bad as you might think.

    • @Lurch-Bot
      @Lurch-Bot 2 месяца назад +12

      Based on the number of DOA and underperforming new GPUs I've seen in recent years, buying a GPU with a couple years use on it is a better bet than buying new. Think of it like an extended QC check..I bought a mining used 2060 this year that is solid as a rock (after I refurbished it) and outperforms most 2060s in benchmark testing.
      But if it weren't for people like that buying new cars, I couldn't get a bargain on a used car. Same goes for GPUs. So let them be ignorant and stop pointing it out.
      When I consider budget PC building, the most important thing to remember is that trying to cobble together hardware that is several years old to make a cheap gaming PC is not something a lot of people can do effectively. Even the scouring of Ebay that is often involved is a skill unto itself. I can get great deals on hardware. But your average noob, trying to claw and scrape their way into current AAA gaming, usually can't. Knowledge of hardware and the relative performance thereof is crucial. It allows you to avoid the many pricing traps you can run into where certain hardware is just more expensive for no good reason. Pricing is not well correlated to actual performance. Skylake is one of those pricing traps. OP could have had a Haswell i7 for what they paid for a Skylake i5. The performance difference between Haswell and Skylake is margin of error. Instruction set and features are the same, with the exception of the DDR4 support with Skylake. But it is irrelevant because Skylake only supports up to 2133MT/s. DDR4-2133 will always perform worse than DDR3-1600. So even if you have a Skylake CPU, it is going to be better to run it on a DDR3 MB. I tried to warn people about DDR5 but people took a noticeable step back just to get on DDR5 to get worse RAM performance for more money. Early adoption is never a good idea and that comes from more than 3 decades of experience. Early DDR5 is why the gaming performance difference between the 5800X3D and 7800X3D is miniscule.
      DDR4-3200 barely outperforms DDR3-1600. DDR5-5600 is worse performing than DDR4-3200. You need expensive DDR5-6400 at CL30 to slightly outperform cheap DDR4-3200 CL16. Transfer rate and clock latency determine actual bandwidth and a new iteration of DDR may double the former but also double the latter. Actual efficiency increases from one generation to the next are minimal. In terms of theoretical bandwidth, DDR2-800 CL4 = DDR3-1600 CL8 = DDR4-3200 CL16 = DDR5-6400 CL32.

      The people that know what they're doing will buy 2nd hand. 1st time builders? Most definitely not which is understandable. The thing is if you know where to buy 2nd hand equipment you can get great deals and well looked after equipment. I've been a member of an overclocking forum for almost 15 years now and the trading there is still as busy as ever. I've got a $5-10k in trades there everything from custom waterblocks, delidded CPUs to sticks of RAM. I'm not into hardcore overclocking anymore but those forums are still useful. All the long timers know each other and there's a degree of trust. But as for Facebook marketplace/ebay/craigslist etc? Yeah no that's a massive crapshoot

    The only thing I have to say is about the Helldivers 2 benchmark. My current pc has an i5 7500 and a GTX 1660 Ti with 16 Gb DDR4 RAM at 3200. Anything over "Hard" difficulty is entirely unplayable, at least as of a few months ago. Had to drop the game due to constant stuttering and egregious input latency with large groups of enemies due to what I assume is cpu overload, and you can't really progress past a certain point unless you can play at higher difficulties. If possible, I'd recommend running a benchmark at max difficulty for that game specifically, or any game that has cpu-intensive gameplay at any given point. I know Borderlands 3 can have very large groups of enemies also, but I haven't tested it on my pc yet.

There is a CEX by him and we mapped out an upgrade path for him with new mobo, DDR4 ram and a better CPU for about GB£75 so he can get up to 6th or 7th gen i5/i7 which means he has a really capable gaming PC for about GB£200 if he goes with upgrades and if he sells the parts he no longer needs he knocks £20-30 off that price.

    It's such a shame you couldn't find something nearby for local pickup a quarter of the build went to delivery, $25 could've gone to an RX580 possibly. I also think you could gone as low as high end Haswell cpu (i7 4770-4790) to pair with anything up to a 1060/rx580 so they're not bottlenecking each other. Have to also understand the people making these type of builds aren't going to be using monitors with high refresh rates, so more likely 1080p 60FPS is kinda ideal. Anything more is wasted. Also just as a sidenote for anyone doing this be a bit careful when buying Dell/Acer/HP OEM desktops, they tend to randomly have proprietary power connectors to the motherboard, sometimes within the same model series. You may need to buy an adaptor so you can use your ATX PSU

    As much as I always had AMD's, even during their bad times, the old Intel chips are legendary for ultra cheap gaming PC's.
    Pre and during covid I sold my ITX Ryzen to a friend and got myself a cheap I5-2400. I later upgraded it for a Xeon1230v2 chip (like a lower clocked I7)
    Later a friend simply gave me his old I5-6600K
    GPU wise I went from a used GTX570 that died shortly after buying used, I RMAed it and Zotac sent me a GTX680 which I used for a while.
    Just at the start of covid before the crazy GPU Prices I snagged myself a 250$ GTX1070.
    Honestly if your budget was 200$... the HDD can go up to 500GB with a GTX 1070... the performance would almost be double.

    After building multiple office gaming pcs with 4th and 6th gen CPUs, I can definitely tell you that the Fortnite stuttering issue is something related to shaders. Once you play a game or two, the stutters go away. They are a one-time thing, and once the lag is gone its mostly gone until the next game update. (I die on purpose and spectate somebody until the game ends, it gets all the stutters out of the way).
    I recently built a sub-100 dollar pc (i5-4590 and rx570 4g) and its working great in Fortnite after some HUGE stuttering. I also tried dx12 and the stuttering was gone, but had tons of missing textures and audio cutout. Dx11 is the way to go, you just need to power through the initial unplayable lagfest 😅

    As for audio - you should be able to just plug it in, I don't see a reason to just leaving it unplugged, since it was plugged previously
    BTW - if you're going to case swap motherboard from this pc please make sure that the power supply cables have enough length to connect to your motherboard
    I was waiting for new PSU and decided to throw original PSU to new case just to find out that the cables were too short

    This pc really sets the bar for cheap esports used pc's. Though I would think finding a similar 16gb with and i5 6600 is hard to find for $60 with shipping. I'd be interested to know what this would sell for on ebay or fbm.

    I would love to see stats of machines like this running less than 1080p, I know this isn't for everyone but I'm someone that likes gaming on smaller ress monitors, some for the retro and some because it is a great way to make a pile of crap run an otherwise really good game very well, Used to do this with Half life and L4d back when I had a core 2 duo barely clocking 1.8ghz. Good video though and darn nice finds.

    You should try testing this system with the mod that allows you to use AMD or NVIDIA's frame generation technology on older cards. I tried it with cyberpunk on a old 1070 and it got me a pretty decent FPS boost.

    Here's a single problem I have with the "actually getting into gaming is way cheaper than you think" argument. Whoever wants to get into gaming, and has little budget for it, probably doesn't know how to build PCs. They don't wanna search all over the internet and make sure everything they need is compatible and get the best offers and then put it all together and then troubleshoot if needed and go through hoops of selling stuff and praying to whatever they believe in that someone actually buys it. The amount of people that want to get into gaming, have a 100$ budget (without tax which I think is misleading because the person still has to pay tax at the end of the day), but also know their ins and outs of building a pc and will be able to troubleshoot, is VERY low, near-zero. This is the kind of a fun project someone WITH money to spare and pc building experience would do. 100$ isn't a lot of money to throw out, you can have your fun, see what kind of performance you can achieve etc. But for an average Joe that just wants his PC to work and wants to have a warranty to get it replaced if needed, this kind of thing just isn't viable. This isn't the kind of video that should be addressed towards those, the video for those people should be what kind of pre-built PC should they get, what to look for, and what to avoid.
    Don't take this as hate, I really like the video a lot, because I love budget builds and your content is good, I just think it's not addressed to who it should be and I wanted to say all of that to any potential average Joes watching this video :3

I understand the hard ware parts, I just have a hard time understanding how to diagnose what limits what when it comes to a pc. I don't game. Im a cnc machinist, and my cad/cam software fusion 360 is constantly taking very long to process some of my more complicated designs. I find very few useful videos on the topic except for gaming rigs.

    I was able to find an HP z230 workstation system that comes with a 4 cores 8 threads cpu with 3.8 ghz boost I'm not talking about i7 4770 it's the xeon e3 1245 v3 Wich actually the same
    With 16 gb of ram and 512 ssd plus 500 hdd for an 100$
    Considering that the ssd was new sealed it's very competitive price for the system the advantage of this z230 is the big free space for vga cards and the 400w psu which is able to power an rx 580 or gtx 1660 ti
