Pay to play online, barely any sales on games and you need to slap tax on top. Honestly, a used 6600 or 6700 XT with a cheap B150m and either a QTJ2 from China or those 11th gen soldered CPUs and some 16GB of RAM is easily reproducible and will land you around the $500 mark, giving you all advantages of a PC with 100% better performance than the Series X. That being said, series S compared to a $250 gaming PC, even considering pay to play, is really good value across the board.
So nice! I recently build a console PC for my father using components that I had laying around. Intel Q6600, a GT1030... He doesn't care about modern games, so with this he can play any game until the mid 2010s no problem. I used Playnite as a launcher, so he will never have to use a keyboard or a mouse, just his old Xbox 360 controller!
Oh boy. Don’t tell that to the pc community 😅😂😂😂. I totally agree with your statement when you buy console you get full warranty on it unlike with used pc parts. But the cool part of pc is you get to choose if you risk it or go with brand new parts
I actually....agree! at least partially. You get a ton of perks going brand new on Series X, but those perks I was willing to forego for my specific needs. I (hopefully) framed this video specific to my needs clearly enough, so it's not confused with a general comparison video. Thanks for watching~
I'm screaming rn, I had no idea you got on Nebula. I'm so happy for you and I really hope they reach out to more creators in the PC space to add to their platform.
I have a similar PC setup and ps5/series x, honestly I prefer the consoles as they are still more seamless plug and play which is better suited to my needs and with the PC you have to tinker to get things right which I find annoying however I understand PC players like this as they want more control over graphics settings. A big thing though I have an MSI RTX 3060ti and it absolutely screams playing games and I can hear it though the headset which I find really annoying and both consoles are much quieter and I can't hear them gaming with a headset.
The best part about the PC is that you can incrementally upgrade it every year instead of once every 3 or 4 years, it spreads cost allowing you to spend a little more on components and means you always stay up to date for the latest games. Upgrading cooling can also give you some headroom for overclocking which can extend the life of your cpu and gpu. And its versatile, can use it for everything from video editing to work to gaming. I build my first PC in 2016 and since then I have slowly upgraded every component at least once. I happen to have the same system you have here (except bigger and hence cooler) and it crushes modern titles.
*Enter next gen amd cpus needing u to replace your whole motherboard with new expensive ones and new graphics cards most likely requiring you to upgrade your psu* all jokes though i agree it’s one of the charms of pc gaming
@@kasra8106 realistically? no. I run an AM4 Ryzen 9 5900X, and an Asus Rog Strix 3080 OC edition. Neither will require me to upgrade for the better portion of 10 years unless I have a part die due to natural silicon degradation.
@@stonecoldslate I don't "have" to upgrade my 6-year-old stuff but it's increasingly difficult to actually run games looking and performing good at this point. If your goal is to play 1080 games for 10 years, you can do that if you buy high end stuff. But if you play at 4K? Good luck getting past 5 years.
For everyone who wants to make the build a bit cheaper here is what i did. I got an used r5 2400G and a used rx5700xt but a b450motherboard. The benefits where that i could overclock the cpu for additional singlecore performance. And i got the whole for about 300bucks. Happy gaming!
@@Jay-ho1wo it performs quiet well in Forza horizon 5 i get 60fps at 4k high settings with fsr2.0 at quality preset About 90fps in halo infinite 1440p high. And about 80 in battlefieldV at 1440p high settings. If you have the budget i would opt for a bit higher performing cpu bc it is the bottleneck in higher fps games like battlefield…
I'd recommend installing the Steam Beta Update as I think the same UI thats in the Steam Deck now replaces Big Picture Mode by default. If not, you can install the beta and create a shortcut of Steam and add -gamepadui to the end of the target field and have that open on start up for a much better experience. :)
I actually received the update a few weeks ago! It has some minor bugs that require a keyboard & mouse occasionally, but the UI is sooooo much cleaner.
Could’ve done much better tbh, could’ve gone with a used 6700xt instead which beats a 3060ti. I’ve even been seeing 6700xt go under $300 new, let alone used
11:06 Re-pasting the card would also improve temperatures. Also, Blower cards don’t need a fan below them to perform well. Try removing it and see the effect
I forgot to mention that the card was (according to the seller) already repasted and had new thermal pads. An update video would be interesting though!
Honestly a very sick build, not gonna lie. If you wanted more control with the controller without having to remote into your PC, you could get controller companion for like $3 on steam. It lets you use your full PC with a controller, even gives you a circle like keyboard when you click on the stick. Plus its easy to turn on and off by pressing back + start. Makes my living room setup way more manageable, for me anyway
I finished building my first pc, I have a i512400f and a rx6700xt, runs great at 1440p 144hz high/ultra settings, thanks for making this video! Love them
This thing looks like a beast of a machine for 1080p. Still under the price of an Xbox x even though they sell at a loss is incredible. Great work as always
Price of new vs used. There’s a reason why the xbox is sold at a loss. The Xbox would be able to be sold at breakeven, it would still be cheaper than the individual parts.

It's been amazing so far. Like Robert T mentioned, I *had* to go used for this to be even remotely possible. The PS5 and Series X are top notch value for a console, even 3 years later. But I hope this inspires others to make a living room PC, even if it's for light emulation. It's so much fun!
That's actually a really powerful gaming rig for the price. The 3060TI for that price was a steal although prices have been coming down a lot from where they were past few years. I bought my series X a year ago there's no way I could have got a 3060TI for $200. Does the budget include a controller though?
Curious why you don’t make videos more often. Granted, I know it takes time to make quality content- but still.. loved this video. Gonna go binge watch some more even though I’ll never cripple myself with a $300 gaming PC build 😂
Nice build, but I have to disagree with omitting the cost of OS to keep it under the cost of Xbox and used vs. new. I'm glad you included what a new pc build would cost
The biggest advantage to using a PC as a makeshift game console is that Microsoft can't run in and take away your emulators, then make you pay twenty dollars to get them back, except now they're difficult to access and have a bland, off-putting menu. I mean seriously Bill, what was up with that?!
The cheapest I could find an RTX 3060 version 2 was $349 on Amazon 😆. I bought 2 of them because I needed to build my son's PC, and I didn't think the prices would go down again until 2024 😂.
@@alderoth01 eBay has really good buyer protection so don’t feel too worried about getting scammed if you’re buying the parts from a seller less than a few thousand miles away or so. It might be easier to get scammed if you’re buying parts far away from China for example because buyer protection is only valid for 30 days.
Fantastic video as always my friend! I got my EVGA RTX 2070 XC Ultra for $220 CAD including delivery from a friend. The card's been great, minus the Video Memory Management Internal BSOD from Premiere Pro, every so often.

Right, but the 6700xt is needed to rival console performance since consoles have better optimization which makes weaker components rival stronger components
Don't forget the cost of Xbox Live. When you buy a console, it comes with a subscription service that's optional on PC. If you keep that machine for the length of the console generation, which is like five years, you're spending hundreds more over that time.
@@mcslender2965 I think it's all bundled now, but you still pretty much have to pay a monthly subscription. It's not a bad deal, but it's extra costs that you don't have to pay on PC.
Xbox live is not mandatory if you don't play single player games. For free to play multiplayer games you dont need xbox live. But for the paid multiplayer games, you will need xbox live. And live is included in xbox gamepass ultimate
@@mcslender2965 nah only for multiplayer games that aren't free, like cod which is still crap but better than nothing. I can play apex, youtube, apple music, or talk to friends in party chat without any subscription. (Talking about xbox not pc)
what? you need xbox live to play PC games online now? I didn't need it to play CoD 2019, but since every multiplayer game sucks now I hadn't heard. I can still play forza 7 online, and its not free. is there just a list of certain games or soemthing?
Have nearly the same build. I just opt for sfx psu. and luckily i got 2 fan 3060ti. then i used 4 thin fan 2 inflow on the bottom and another 2 outflow on the top.

I was able to find my first gaming pc on facebook 3 days ago. An asus rog strix with i7 9700f and rtx 2070 super for $500. Im excited to explore the pc gaming world
pretty good build, you might want to try reapplying thermal paste to both gpu and cpu if the seller didn't given that the seller used the pc for quite some time, or the cpu/gpu is on a higher temp than average in bench marks
Good job 👍. I built a $2000 pc with a 3080ti and I’m now on my second failed power supply. Having to deal with constant update battles I just use the PC as a PC now and stick to my consoles for gaming at this point. PC games are full of hackers so I turned off cross play for that reason on most games. Xbox cross play is weird to turn off but playing only against Xbox/PS players servers seem better and with less hacker headaches. Just an opinion. You got a sub.
If you would drill hole at the back of the cabinet where the PC sits, even though you keep the door open. You'll get better thermals, instead of that hot air being kept in one place, you create air movement and that is better. I have a SFF build in a cabinet and had to do it like that due to thermals and it really works.
I added a couple of case fans to the back of my cabinet with some quick Dremel work and a few holes drilled. If you dont mind two extra cables behind your pc, I seriously recommend it. It brought my thermals down significantly.
I love the concept of a living room pc. I've been using one for a couple of years now and it's great. Mine has a 3600x and an rx 5700 though but it still allows me to play games pretty well. Enjoy your content.
Ahh the dreaded two different M-ATX sizes. As you learned, most SFF M-ATX cases only support the 8" motherboards yet for some reason manufacturers like to spit out a 9.5" version that makes case shopping rather difficult.
You should put your steam in Beta so you can get the new Big Pic UI that looks like steam deck. Its more controller friendly and looks much pleasing to the eye :) otherwise great vid!
yeah somebody correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the Series X games run all current games at 4k60 fps??? how would a build like this even come close to that??
Most console games have dynamic resolution to keep 60fps stable, even series X does not run all games at 4k60fps at all times, it just compensates with that feature turned on. Some console ports to PC recently are starting to have that as well, but tbh I much prefer just turning graphics options down a bit and achieve the same, which usually gives better perceived picture quality. A 3060ti can definitely get to 4k60fps for most console ported games, but for some of the most taxing and most recent PC games it will not be able to do without turning down graphics. I think the need for high end GPU is highly overrated and mostly a marketing ploy to get gamers to overspend on high end flagships. Unless you are a competitive gamer who requires high refresh rate up to like 240 or even higher to gain competitive advantage, nobody needs the latest gen flagship. You can do pretty well with a latest gen mid range or last gen flagship, or even flagship from two gens ago (like a 2080ti), and you'll run most games comfortably at ~100fps with all settings turned to max.
@@fasthands1631 well factoring in building and browsing for the correct items. He also did it on Facebook market place so I imagine is drove to pick some of the items.
If you're using a PC as a console, get yourself a Logitech K400. You're gonna need it. Seriously. One pop-up from Windows Firewall prompting you to make an exclusion will stop your gaming session in its tracks if you don't have a keyboard on hand. There's a hundred other such interruptions that require (or are drastically easier with) a keyboard. Also, he didn't even mention one of the best things: no console generations! My friend and I are revisiting ME3 multiplayer. With PC, there's no pulling your old 360 outta storage to enjoy that sweet, sweet 720p30. Sounds nostalgic, but it will also make your eyes bleed at least a little. With PC, you can revisit every game, for years to come, with graphics that actually match or exceed how you REMEMBER them, with the only risk being if the servers are fully shut down or something. 👍👍👍
Once I saw the A320M I was hype, it’s the same one I’m using for my mini sleeper build. I’m using a 5700G with a RX 6600. My whole setup probably came around to 500-600 freedom bucks. Sick video man, you’re going to be helping a lot of people that don’t know otherwise. I got to sub!
Watching your videos inspired me to build a budget ITX PC. Loving my Ghost S1 that I made under $500. The part finding was half the fun. Keep up the amazing content!
kinda misses the point though. Whilst if you're only gaming, yes a console is better value, obviously. But something you may also need to own is a capable computer. Do you remember the pandemic? Do you also remember how everyone rented out terrible chromebooks? Situations like that are a reason that something like this makes sense. You're never limited with a computer.
The consoles may use a 6700XT-esque GPU but their performance isn’t even close in reality (find benchmarks if you don’t believe me) so the idea that you need a $400 GPU to keep up is inaccurate. You also could have cheaped-out a bit more on the Case, PSU, and motherboard, which when combined with a more reasonable GPU equivalent could have the price of a new rig at around $6-700 Cool and well produced video otherwise.
Never been to this channel before and my my MY, this is just so relaxing. You doing you, having fun and are down to earth relaxed while explaining stuff to us. A rare thing to come across. Keep doing you, man ^^
Using a 512gb SSD is kinda cheating since the Series X has a 1 TB drive. You also have to factor in warranty, controller, OS, the fans, UHD blu-ray drive, etc.
I have pretty much the same PC, but with an ASUS RTX 2080, a Thermaltake Core V1 case, a mini ITX B550 motherboard from ASRock, and a 650 W 80+ Platinum rated power supply. The CPU is a 5500, just like the one shown here.
Building a comparable PC to a Series X or a PS5 will typically always cost more. But people also tend to forget you are also getting a PC! Much better for web browsing, school work, and many other things other than just gaming. Much more value per dollar.
This is great, the built is really tight and this has kept me away from doing a MicroATX but I might just do this one or something similar, I have some giftcards from Christmas, thanks for the video.
Amazing how you got that EVGA 600 Watt Gold for $31USD I recently needed to pick up a cheap PSU for a project, and the same one cost me $78USD and I thought my price was pretty good. To bad yours was lost in the post, hopefully you can get it back.
Not sure, but I think the reason that your GPU temps are a bit high is because of the airflow. The GPU uses a blower-style cooler, which means it blows all the air out the back of the gpu rather than blowing hot air everywhere. I noticed that there is a giant cable mess right behind the GPU, so what you should probably do is move those cables somehow.
I did a very similar build about a year back using an ITX board, 5800x and a 3070 all in a Thermaltake Core V21 cube. Like you I built mine for couch gaming and like you I have mine in a floating media cabinet. I noticed you have to keep the door open when you used it due to heat obviously. I used a AC Infinity T8 plate fan kit on my media cabinet enclosure. It works extremely well in automatically keeping the cabinet nice and cool while keeping the doors closed.
A 1tb NVME Drive would have made this a beetter build even though its a little more costly. But what a GREAT VIDEO!!!!! Keep them comming! I so miss budjet PC builds!
I have built 2 PCs with the coolermaster NR200P case and can confirm these motherboard fit, for anyone interested: Asus ROG Strix B550-I Gaming (notice the -I) Asrock B550M-ITX/ac The Asus supports Bios flash without a CPU installed (to ensure compatibility with Ryzen 5000s), the Asrock does not but mine came with a Bios supporting Ryzen 5000s. There's also a sticker on the box of the Asrock that mentions it : "AMD Ryzen ™ 5000 desktop ready".
+ controller + cables + keyboard & mouse + shipping on every single part if not found from the same source. Also to note labor - research and time finding parts, dealing with multiple sellers and waiting time on everything. All that and most new games are still better optimised for the PS5/Xbox which comes smaller, sleeker and conveniently just pick up and plug n play which is a big factor.

So nice! I recently build a console PC for my father using components that I had laying around. Intel Q6600, a GT1030... He doesn't care about modern games, so with this he can play any game until the mid 2010s no problem. I used Playnite as a launcher, so he will never have to use a keyboard or a mouse, just his old Xbox 360 controller!
One of my cousin still using the Q6600 for his PC, not sure what his graphics card is. Was a very decent CPU and very popular in its day.
A legendary chip! That's awesome that you're still finding a purpose for it.
You can't compare used parts to a new system. Great video though!
Oh boy. Don’t tell that to the pc community 😅😂😂😂. I totally agree with your statement when you buy console you get full warranty on it unlike with used pc parts. But the cool part of pc is you get to choose if you risk it or go with brand new parts
I actually....agree! at least partially.
You get a ton of perks going brand new on Series X, but those perks I was willing to forego for my specific needs. I (hopefully) framed this video specific to my needs clearly enough, so it's not confused with a general comparison video. Thanks for watching~
Right I found a lightly used XSX for $300 I got a mean deal
I'm screaming rn, I had no idea you got on Nebula. I'm so happy for you and I really hope they reach out to more creators in the PC space to add to their platform.
Thanks! Yes, the team and the creators on there are phenomenal! I'm hoping we get more PC creators too
I have a similar PC setup and ps5/series x, honestly I prefer the consoles as they are still more seamless plug and play which is better suited to my needs and with the PC you have to tinker to get things right which I find annoying however I understand PC players like this as they want more control over graphics settings. A big thing though I have an MSI RTX 3060ti and it absolutely screams playing games and I can hear it though the headset which I find really annoying and both consoles are much quieter and I can't hear them gaming with a headset.
The best part about the PC is that you can incrementally upgrade it every year instead of once every 3 or 4 years, it spreads cost allowing you to spend a little more on components and means you always stay up to date for the latest games. Upgrading cooling can also give you some headroom for overclocking which can extend the life of your cpu and gpu. And its versatile, can use it for everything from video editing to work to gaming. I build my first PC in 2016 and since then I have slowly upgraded every component at least once. I happen to have the same system you have here (except bigger and hence cooler) and it crushes modern titles.
*Enter next gen amd cpus needing u to replace your whole motherboard with new expensive ones and new graphics cards most likely requiring you to upgrade your psu* all jokes though i agree it’s one of the charms of pc gaming
@@kasra8106 realistically? no. I run an AM4 Ryzen 9 5900X, and an Asus Rog Strix 3080 OC edition. Neither will require me to upgrade for the better portion of 10 years unless I have a part die due to natural silicon degradation.
@@stonecoldslate Neither of the parts in ur comment is next gen.
@@stonecoldslate I don't "have" to upgrade my 6-year-old stuff but it's increasingly difficult to actually run games looking and performing good at this point. If your goal is to play 1080 games for 10 years, you can do that if you buy high end stuff. But if you play at 4K? Good luck getting past 5 years.
@@kasra8106 next gen by who’s standards, the 40 series and AM5 are barely upgraded at all
For everyone who wants to make the build a bit cheaper here is what i did. I got an used r5 2400G and a used rx5700xt but a b450motherboard.
The benefits where that i could overclock the cpu for additional singlecore performance.
And i got the whole for about 300bucks.
Happy gaming!
Hey Fladu thanks for that 😁. How does it do performance wise I'm really interested in a build like this
@@Jay-ho1wo it performs quiet well in Forza horizon 5 i get 60fps at 4k high settings with fsr2.0 at quality preset
About 90fps in halo infinite 1440p high. And about 80 in battlefieldV at 1440p high settings.
If you have the budget i would opt for a bit higher performing cpu bc it is the bottleneck in higher fps games like battlefield…
That's a huge W there. The 2400g is a tad slow imo though
@@fladu2546 thank you so much. I'll definitely look into a build like this
Why get a G cpu when you are going to use a GPU? That cpu will limit pcie x16 to to PCIe 3.0 x8.
I'd recommend installing the Steam Beta Update as I think the same UI thats in the Steam Deck now replaces Big Picture Mode by default. If not, you can install the beta and create a shortcut of Steam and add -gamepadui to the end of the target field and have that open on start up for a much better experience. :)
Good tip
Was about to write this!
@@malvnathanielsame lol
I actually received the update a few weeks ago! It has some minor bugs that require a keyboard & mouse occasionally, but the UI is sooooo much cleaner.
Super impressive build for the price. This is the content I live for.
Could’ve done much better tbh, could’ve gone with a used 6700xt instead which beats a 3060ti. I’ve even been seeing 6700xt go under $300 new, let alone used

Im not into PC build anymore but always a pleasure listening to this videos
I recently built a ~£200 PC, I feel like your channel would have been a godsend had I been watching before!
11:06 Re-pasting the card would also improve temperatures. Also, Blower cards don’t need a fan below them to perform well. Try removing it and see the effect
I would love to see how this turns out.
I forgot to mention that the card was (according to the seller) already repasted and had new thermal pads. An update video would be interesting though!
Honestly a very sick build, not gonna lie. If you wanted more control with the controller without having to remote into your PC, you could get controller companion for like $3 on steam. It lets you use your full PC with a controller, even gives you a circle like keyboard when you click on the stick. Plus its easy to turn on and off by pressing back + start. Makes my living room setup way more manageable, for me anyway
I finished building my first pc, I have a i512400f and a rx6700xt, runs great at 1440p 144hz high/ultra settings, thanks for making this video! Love them
Beautiful machine. Enjoy!
Can I ask what are the full specs and how much you spent on all the parts?
Bruh i have a rx 7900 xt and r7 5800x overclocked to 5 Ghz, and 1440p ultra at 144hz is a struggle sometimes, mostly in warzone 2 and hunt showdown

This thing looks like a beast of a machine for 1080p. Still under the price of an Xbox x even though they sell at a loss is incredible. Great work as always
Price of new vs used. There’s a reason why the xbox is sold at a loss. The Xbox would be able to be sold at breakeven, it would still be cheaper than the individual parts.

It's been amazing so far. Like Robert T mentioned, I *had* to go used for this to be even remotely possible. The PS5 and Series X are top notch value for a console, even 3 years later. But I hope this inspires others to make a living room PC, even if it's for light emulation. It's so much fun!

That's actually a really powerful gaming rig for the price. The 3060TI for that price was a steal although prices have been coming down a lot from where they were past few years.

Curious why you don’t make videos more often. Granted, I know it takes time to make quality content- but still.. loved this video. Gonna go binge watch some more even though I’ll never cripple myself with a $300 gaming PC build 😂
Great build! Always great to see these budget minded builds.
The budget builds are so satisfying when they come together
And stress relieving for me as a creator LOL
Nice build, but I have to disagree with omitting the cost of OS to keep it under the cost of Xbox and used vs. new. I'm glad you included what a new pc build would cost
OS key is only like 5-10 bucks
The biggest advantage to using a PC as a makeshift game console is that Microsoft can't run in and take away your emulators, then make you pay twenty dollars to get them back, except now they're difficult to access and have a bland, off-putting menu. I mean seriously Bill, what was up with that?!
This video just summarised all points why you buy a console. It’s so much work to get a PC setup running correctly. Happy with my plug and play XSX 🤗
I think the 11th gen i9 from a laptop + mobo and a rx6600m all from aliexpress are good for a budget xbox

The Xbox x has the GPU power of the 5700xt not 6700xt.
Good video as always.
Right, but the 6700xt is needed to rival console performance since consoles have better optimization which makes weaker components rival stronger components
Ahhh you're right. I overshot by a good margin
Don't forget the cost of Xbox Live. When you buy a console, it comes with a subscription service that's optional on PC. If you keep that machine for the length of the console generation, which is like five years, you're spending hundreds more over that time.
I thought you have to buy Game Pass and Xbox live still?
@@mcslender2965 I think it's all bundled now, but you still pretty much have to pay a monthly subscription. It's not a bad deal, but it's extra costs that you don't have to pay on PC.
Xbox live is not mandatory if you don't play single player games. For free to play multiplayer games you dont need xbox live. But for the paid multiplayer games, you will need xbox live. And live is included in xbox gamepass ultimate
@@mcslender2965 nah only for multiplayer games that aren't free, like cod which is still crap but better than nothing. I can play apex, youtube, apple music, or talk to friends in party chat without any subscription. (Talking about xbox not pc)
what? you need xbox live to play PC games online now? I didn't need it to play CoD 2019, but since every multiplayer game sucks now I hadn't heard. I can still play forza 7 online, and its not free. is there just a list of certain games or soemthing?
im so disappointed in myself for not waiting on the gpu shortage to stop lol. i paid a little over a thousand for my 3070
Have nearly the same build. I just opt for sfx psu. and luckily i got 2 fan 3060ti. then i used 4 thin fan 2 inflow on the bottom and another 2 outflow on the top.

I was able to find my first gaming pc on facebook 3 days ago. An asus rog strix with i7 9700f and rtx 2070 super for $500. Im excited to explore the pc gaming world
pretty good build, you might want to try reapplying thermal paste to both gpu and cpu if the seller didn't given that the seller used the pc for quite some time, or the cpu/gpu is on a higher temp than average in bench marks
Good job 👍. I built a $2000 pc with a 3080ti and I’m now on my second failed power supply. Having to deal with constant update battles I just use the PC as a PC now and stick to my consoles for gaming at this point. PC games are full of hackers so I turned off cross play for that reason on most games. Xbox cross play is weird to turn off but playing only against Xbox/PS players servers seem better and with less hacker headaches. Just an opinion. You got a sub.
If you would drill hole at the back of the cabinet where the PC sits, even though you keep the door open. You'll get better thermals, instead of that hot air being kept in one place, you create air movement and that is better. I have a SFF build in a cabinet and had to do it like that due to thermals and it really works.
I added a couple of case fans to the back of my cabinet with some quick Dremel work and a few holes drilled. If you dont mind two extra cables behind your pc, I seriously recommend it. It brought my thermals down significantly.
I love the concept of a living room pc. I've been using one for a couple of years now and it's great. Mine has a 3600x and an rx 5700 though but it still allows me to play games pretty well. Enjoy your content.
I see, you cant build this in Australia for the same price because the GPU cost twice as much brand new
Ahh the dreaded two different M-ATX sizes. As you learned, most SFF M-ATX cases only support the 8" motherboards yet for some reason manufacturers like to spit out a 9.5" version that makes case shopping rather difficult.
You should put your steam in Beta so you can get the new Big Pic UI that looks like steam deck. Its more controller friendly and looks much pleasing to the eye :) otherwise great vid!
yeah somebody correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the Series X games run all current games at 4k60 fps??? how would a build like this even come close to that??
not natively lol. Usually uses some form of upscaling. 3060ti runs it natively and if he used dlss it would not even be close
Labor and time, this build is actually like $2000 haha. Convenience is nearly priceless
@@mikeslemonade if thats wroth $2k to you then im in the wrong business lmfaoo
Most console games have dynamic resolution to keep 60fps stable, even series X does not run all games at 4k60fps at all times, it just compensates with that feature turned on. Some console ports to PC recently are starting to have that as well, but tbh I much prefer just turning graphics options down a bit and achieve the same, which usually gives better perceived picture quality. A 3060ti can definitely get to 4k60fps for most console ported games, but for some of the most taxing and most recent PC games it will not be able to do without turning down graphics.
I think the need for high end GPU is highly overrated and mostly a marketing ploy to get gamers to overspend on high end flagships. Unless you are a competitive gamer who requires high refresh rate up to like 240 or even higher to gain competitive advantage, nobody needs the latest gen flagship. You can do pretty well with a latest gen mid range or last gen flagship, or even flagship from two gens ago (like a 2080ti), and you'll run most games comfortably at ~100fps with all settings turned to max.
@@fasthands1631 well factoring in building and browsing for the correct items. He also did it on Facebook market place so I imagine is drove to pick some of the items.
Ozy, this is a very good video, I think I've seen all of your stuff. This is definitely one of the best.
man really wondered why he couldn't fit an MATX board inside of an ITX/DTX case 🤣
Erying motherboard with soldered i9 11900H and a used 6700XT might fit the budget too.
Ooo, something I never considered
Linus tech tips would be proud
lmao the clip with your brother and your expression was just gold
If you're using a PC as a console, get yourself a Logitech K400. You're gonna need it. Seriously. One pop-up from Windows Firewall prompting you to make an exclusion will stop your gaming session in its tracks if you don't have a keyboard on hand. There's a hundred other such interruptions that require (or are drastically easier with) a keyboard.
Also, he didn't even mention one of the best things: no console generations! My friend and I are revisiting ME3 multiplayer. With PC, there's no pulling your old 360 outta storage to enjoy that sweet, sweet 720p30. Sounds nostalgic, but it will also make your eyes bleed at least a little. With PC, you can revisit every game, for years to come, with graphics that actually match or exceed how you REMEMBER them, with the only risk being if the servers are fully shut down or something. 👍👍👍
Once I saw the A320M I was hype, it’s the same one I’m using for my mini sleeper build. I’m using a 5700G with a RX 6600. My whole setup probably came around to 500-600 freedom bucks. Sick video man, you’re going to be helping a lot of people that don’t know otherwise. I got to sub!
Are you comparing with the Xbox series s or the Xbox series x?
I love how clean your home is, my lord. Everythings so minimal and beautiful

Love your content. Keep up the good work!
Just do yourself a favor guys and buy an Xbox Series X or a PS5. Cheap and super strong.
Exactly these console killer PC videos are bull shit.
kinda misses the point though. Whilst if you're only gaming, yes a console is better value, obviously. But something you may also need to own is a capable computer. Do you remember the pandemic? Do you also remember how everyone rented out terrible chromebooks? Situations like that are a reason that something like this makes sense. You're never limited with a computer.
The consoles may use a 6700XT-esque GPU but their performance isn’t even close in reality (find benchmarks if you don’t believe me) so the idea that you need a $400 GPU to keep up is inaccurate.
You also could have cheaped-out a bit more on the Case, PSU, and motherboard, which when combined with a more reasonable GPU equivalent could have the price of a new rig at around $6-700
Cool and well produced video otherwise.
Never been to this channel before and my my MY, this is just so relaxing. You doing you, having fun and are down to earth relaxed while explaining stuff to us. A rare thing to come across. Keep doing you, man ^^
There is NO WAY you can get 4k 120fps hdr gameplay at this price point in a PC.
A 4k gpu alone costs more.
Using a 512gb SSD is kinda cheating since the Series X has a 1 TB drive. You also have to factor in warranty, controller, OS, the fans, UHD blu-ray drive, etc.
I have pretty much the same PC, but with an ASUS RTX 2080, a Thermaltake Core V1 case, a mini ITX B550 motherboard from ASRock, and a 650 W 80+ Platinum rated power supply. The CPU is a 5500, just like the one shown here.
"Drumroll please" ....no drum ..... just a trumpet LoL ;)
3060Ti for 225$ ... cmon, you gotta be kiding me :/
LETSSS ggoooooooo
Building a comparable PC to a Series X or a PS5 will typically always cost more. But people also tend to forget you are also getting a PC! Much better for web browsing, school work, and many other things other than just gaming. Much more value per dollar.
This is great, the built is really tight and this has kept me away from doing a MicroATX but I might just do this one or something similar, I have some giftcards from Christmas, thanks for the video.
Series x will still run better because of optimisation
Amazing how you got that EVGA 600 Watt Gold for $31USD I recently needed to pick up a cheap PSU for a project, and the same one cost me $78USD and I thought my price was pretty good. To bad yours was lost in the post, hopefully you can get it back.
Great , it was nice if you could add the list of the hardware in the description.
7:21 I lost it looking at Burnt Ribs 😂😂
Him: I got the RTX 3060 TI for 240$ 🥰🥰
Me: Ah yes the GPU that actually costs twice the price of a Series S in my developing country.
Not sure, but I think the reason that your GPU temps are a bit high is because of the airflow. The GPU uses a blower-style cooler, which means it blows all the air out the back of the gpu rather than blowing hot air everywhere. I noticed that there is a giant cable mess right behind the GPU, so what you should probably do is move those cables somehow.
Great video all while doing a budget build, I can respect that though I myself buy the highest end hardware.
I did a very similar build about a year back using an ITX board, 5800x and a 3070 all in a Thermaltake Core V21 cube. Like you I built mine for couch gaming and like you I have mine in a floating media cabinet. I noticed you have to keep the door open when you used it due to heat obviously. I used a AC Infinity T8 plate fan kit on my media cabinet enclosure. It works extremely well in automatically keeping the cabinet nice and cool while keeping the doors closed.
A 1tb NVME Drive would have made this a beetter build even though its a little more costly. But what a GREAT VIDEO!!!!! Keep them comming! I so miss budjet PC builds!
You should lower your tv in your living room so the center of the screen is eye level when sitting down, much more immersive and less neck strain

I have built 2 PCs with the coolermaster NR200P case and can confirm these motherboard fit, for anyone interested:
Asus ROG Strix B550-I Gaming (notice the -I)
Asrock B550M-ITX/ac
The Asus supports Bios flash without a CPU installed (to ensure compatibility with Ryzen 5000s), the Asrock does not but mine came with a Bios supporting Ryzen 5000s. There's also a sticker on the box of the Asrock that mentions it : "AMD Ryzen ™ 5000 desktop ready".
+ controller + cables + keyboard & mouse + shipping on every single part if not found from the same source. Also to note labor - research and time finding parts, dealing with multiple sellers and waiting time on everything.
All that and most new games are still better optimised for the PS5/Xbox which comes smaller, sleeker and conveniently just pick up and plug n play which is a big factor.
What game that was made for PC and it's not a port from console runs better on consoles?
Man... You're making me switch from console to PC!!!
