I seriously can't get enough of your awesome work, dude! Your dedication and creativity are off the charts. Thank you for sharing this journey with us! 🩷
What would be cool is if you show what your target down payment is and put it on a progress bar, every time you spend your budget you reduce your progress bar and when you make profit your fill meter goes up. Would be cool to see it visually or animated.
For the couple of months I've been watching all your videos and all I can say is I love your channel bro, you put so much effort and time into these videos and you deserve millions of subs. Keep up the amazing work!
One small tip, when painting plastic always apply a primer. The color will stick much better and will look much nicer and last longer. The paint has a tendency to peel off the plastic due to the heat, the primer prevents this
Make sure you fully test those cards when you get the chance! Just checking for a post is a quick way to know its not a dud, but Ive had plenty of cards with dying vram and other issues that have no issues posting or loading drivers. The issues only become clear once a full vram and gpu core stress test is run for a few hours at least. The 3060 12gb for $70 is insane, nice job grabbing that!
I love this series, not only are people getting better deals then the "budget" gaming PCs from amazon etc. there is a lot of hardware getting reused that would normally just sit or get tossed.
thats good advise but sandpapering it after and before painting it is even better. Thats what they do with cars too before painting because smooth surface aint good for painting.
Crazy deal man! I do the same exact thing. Never seen a $75 dollar rtx 3060… that’s insane! I got a rtx 3060 for $160 and I thought the was a steal… might start a series just like this if that’s alright with you. Definitely inspired me!
Try and put high heat paint on the plastic and back. A lot of standard can paint will be eaten away as heat gets to it. Putting on high heat spray will stop that and give it a longer life and a better looking one as well.
Nice deals on them GPU´s bud!! I can see why you want to keep the 1080Ti; such a great GPU!! Its best for personal rig and, as you said, the RTX 3060 is better for a flip-rig. Im running a 3080Ti (custom watercooled) myself and Im pleased af. Thanks for great content!! Keep up the good work and stay safe!! Best wishes from Sweden, EU// Chris
Spray painting on the carpet in your home? Maybe its on a old carpet in the garage? Any how the pc an gpu look nice. Good Job! So the cost of the build was $345 and the sale price was $500?
Hi Elijah. Your content is awesome and I love it all. I just wanted to ask how often do you sell the pcs? Do you find deals often? I hope you don't mind answering some questions. I also flip PCs (in the UK) and am also in school. I've flipped around 5 pcs now however I'm amazed how you find so many deal and sell them so quick. I think it could be because of more demand in your area but I don't know. Thanks for the awesome content! :)
I did something similar to what you did with the Zotac card, accidentally put my finger inside the fan and completely broke it. Ended up delaying my build by about 1 week and set me back another $20. Lesson learned about Zotac cards.
Off topic, but I'd like to see another series where you compare used components, especially GPU's, as a none expert it's hard to tell GPU's apart, they often have the same/similar names but are drastically different.
Man, my area is absolute ass on a stick RN for selling PC's. I've been finding great deals on used components lately, but struggling to sell the full builds. I'm undercutting everything in my area and generally offering better spec for less money. People just aren't buying. I hope w/ the holidays coming up that the tides turn
Elijah next time you paint hold the spray paint from a side to another, the reason u got the bumbs is because u started spraying in the middle like all the time, so just go from a side to another and ur good, also nice deals man, ill be able to get a rtx 3060 for $70 in a few years aswell 😂😂
Great vid! Is it worth the extra cost to go with an nvme drive on a flip? I would assume most buyers who are buying a flip off of marketplace wouldn't know the difference and would see, at least, 1TB,and at most M.2. Great vids as always!
I have recently started flipping pcs and I usually make a Microsoft account, test the pc, reset it and then just turn off the pc when it asks me to log in with a Microsoft account again. Is that the best way to go about it before boxing it up for resell? Thanks! I am loving your vids man :)
The gtx 1080ti is faster at the moment but with games starting to release with Direct X12_2 Ultimate and like the GTX 780 ti which was still a very capable card which now can't launch modern games because it did support DX12 the GTX 1080Ti's days are limited especially with Nvidia's track record of Driver Support
Bro I would like to recommend you add the amount of money that you got from this series end of the series i always wonder how much you earned untill this for house please add a profit chart or something in end please ☺️you are my goat
Thankyou for adding a running total I've asked a few times for that and it's great seeing it and white system was a clean build. You should also use super high grit sand paper and rub down the plastic slightly before paininting(I learned that the hard way kinda similar to your first paint attempt)
the biggest mistake i make when finding good deals is believing things are too good to be tru. once i saw a listing of gaming chair for 10 buck i checked the online price and its normall 200 so i thought it was fake. but then i realized it was a rela deal and i missed out on it
How do you install drivers for nvidia cards when flipping? For my last pc i created an extra gmail account and then the nvidia account, but nowadays you need to have a mobile phone number for new gmail accounts
I keep asking myself if Supercdk is a scam and my school Missouri State University said if it's lower than Microsoft Cost then yes it is. I just do not get why that is?
Tbh the key from ms store is too expensive, could build an entire pc with that price, i once asked someone who knows more about these stuff nd they said that those 3rd party keys *sometimes* get flagged by microsoft but its super rare and almost never happens so i think you're fine and even if it gets revoked my ms u could still buy another and itll still be cheaper than getting from ms themselves lol
In my opinion the 1080ti was a better deal and heres why. Id pay no more than 150-200 for a used 3060, and I'd pay no more than 300-350 for a used 1080ti. So theres ~130 profit on the 3060 and ~200 profit on the 1080ti.
Fr bro last week I found a good 3060 ti for 200€ (they usually go in my country for 300+) and I thought that that was really cheap but his deals were insane

anyone else noticed how much of a glow up he has had since episode 1.

Started watching this series about a week ago and I finally caught up. What a banger series man! An absolute inspiration to also try flipping PCs too.
9:41 Tip:
Before spray painting the gpu get a micro fiber sheet and wipe the dust off of it, so it will be a smooth surface 😊
thats good advise but sandpapering it after and before painting it is even better. Thats what they do with cars too before painting because smooth surface aint good for painting.
I would have also put a clear coat which would give the color some pop and also protection
Put the cans of spray paint in a bucket of hot water before ya use them as well
W baby!!
Awesome deals
Love the pride you have in your work. Keep it up man.
I’ll meet you over there!
Crazy deal man! I do the same exact thing. Never seen a $75 dollar rtx 3060… that’s insane! I got a rtx 3060 for $160 and I thought the was a steal… might start a series just like this if that’s alright with you. Definitely inspired me!

Back here again! Made it this far at the 18 view mark! Love your Flipping PCs series!

I just binge watch the whole series and enjoyed every minute, keep up the good work and I look forward to what you will have in the future bro 😊
this is the most underrated person on youtube i love your vids my man! ❤

great vid bro very entertaining!
Man EL your so close to that goal of 10k. Dubs all around
I'd love to see your inventory spreadsheet in these videos! Really interested in seeing the parts list for that white pc, $324 is a crazy price
Didn't see you putting new thermopaste after the cleaning and painting... Definetely paint was worth it, much better looking : )
I brought two PC,s for 300$ in 2020, I ended up selling both for 2.7K. My biggest profit to this date.
I can't wait to see what your house will look like
The 🐐 of yt has posted
white pcs look so clean, imo they probably sell much better than those black boxes
Love this build! I just started flipping PCs myself for some extra cash. What’s your tips for spray painting indoors?
Spray painting on the carpet in your home? Maybe its on a old carpet in the garage? Any how the pc an gpu look nice. Good Job! So the cost of the build was $345 and the sale price was $500?
You wasted more in gas that makes the deal not a deal. 😂
I used less than a 1/4 tank. It was all highway driving
@@ElijahsLab cool.

Picked up a pny rtx 3060 revel Xrgb version for 127$ this past Friday! But you came up hard bro! geezus
Bro what's with the to catch a predator stash 😂
Weren't you at below 5k subs the other day? But you damn deserve more fr

Bro yes surr I love these videos keep up the good work man👍
Glad things are going good!
Bro you should throw in the cost of windows into your total price... discount code works legit!!!!! Awesome video!!!!!!!!
11:16 you should have also painted the fans white so it would match the gpu and also the pc
Thanks for answering my question 🙏
im thinking of doing something like this when i get some extra cash, seems cool.
Love ur vids 🍪🍪
(I’m active in the discord and I was the one who asked how long the vid would be yesterday)

Pretty nice video would be nice to do an additional video for the best deal you got with testing all the pc part you got for the future pc build
🔥 🔥 bro is killing it

I wondered before about spray painting a gpu. Thanks for that :)
*Great series, thinking about doing a similar series of my own*
Some W deals fr but an hour drive is crazy 💀
Lmao yeah not worth
1hr drive ain’t nothing🤣
Bruh that’s nothing lol. Gas is cheap, it was all freeway driving
Used less than a 1/4 tank
Great vid! Is it worth the extra cost to go with an nvme drive on a flip? I would assume most buyers who are buying a flip off of marketplace wouldn't know the difference and would see, at least, 1TB,and at most M.2. Great vids as always!
Hey, doesn't the spraypaint on the 3060 melt when it runs at like 90 Degrees Celcius? I bought heat resistant paint for that...
INSANE DEALS WAS WAITING FOR A NEW EP
I have recently started flipping pcs and I usually make a Microsoft account, test the pc, reset it and then just turn off the pc when it asks me to log in with a Microsoft account again. Is that the best way to go about it before boxing it up for resell? Thanks! I am loving your vids man :)
That was so amazing RTX 3060 for 70 dollars damn good job hunting.
are you tracking how much time you spend on this? would be interesting to see how much you are making per hour
Ebay is this man's best friend
Warm the paint before use.
what do you do with the boxes after building a gaming PC
I am also starting to get into flipping pc's. I currently have a green motherboard. Should i use a case with a glass side panel or fully closed?
this is so much fun to watch and really halpful
love the videos, you'll make it in life.

If you install windows 11 what do you do about Microsoft requiring an account in the setup process of windows?
Bro I would like to recommend you add the amount of money that you got from this series end of the series i always wonder how much you earned untill this for house please add a profit chart or something in end please ☺️you are my goat
Watch till the end before commenting. You’ll get the total
@@ElijahsLab i watched bro im saying about a chart like representing least week income from pc , dont get mad loves your content
TY
Whats the marketplace that you used for the 70 dollar rtx 3060?
Facebook
@@felixfn1_ I Swear it isnt
What do you set your profit margin at?
Love u brother ur video inspired me to build pc with used parts
keep pushing out vid💯
Thankyou for adding a running total I've asked a few times for that and it's great seeing it and white system was a clean build. You should also use super high grit sand paper and rub down the plastic slightly before paininting(I learned that the hard way kinda similar to your first paint attempt)
you should totaly make longer vids its so entertaining.
I got a 3070 for 125 from my friend so those steals are out there
My uncle gave me my 3070 for free lol
@@giladrosensteal of all time
both but i would rather 3060 as its newer
is the end of this video not from the last episode?/
you should hire some people to do certain things for you like them driving and getting the parts
Keep pushing
the biggest mistake i make when finding good deals is believing things are too good to be tru. once i saw a listing of gaming chair for 10 buck i checked the online price and its normall 200 so i thought it was fake. but then i realized it was a rela deal and i missed out on it
I think the 3060 is better over all because it has a better rtx performance and dlss and mesh shaders
price 3060
preformence 1080 ti
The 3060 was fr the better deal. 70$ is a steal.
How do you install drivers for nvidia cards when flipping? For my last pc i created an extra gmail account and then the nvidia account, but nowadays you need to have a mobile phone number for new gmail accounts
Don’t need to make an account
Just search up “nvidia drivers”
Find your gpu and download the file
You don’t need GeForce experience
@@ElijahsLab Oh thanks a lot

I’ve never had any problems and you can check if they are legit in the command prompt in windows
@@ElijahsLab could you do a video in the future as proof to make sure that it is legitimate or not. 😉
W baaby
There's literally a site that sells windows keys for $4
In my opinion the 1080ti was a better deal and heres why. Id pay no more than 150-200 for a used 3060, and I'd pay no more than 300-350 for a used 1080ti. So theres ~130 profit on the 3060 and ~200 profit on the 1080ti.
or you can run a cmd command to activate windows for free no point in buying
Which cmd command
dude cant stop crossing his fingers every 2 minutes
how much fps does the pc with an rtx 3060 get?
yo lab im from flordia do u do shipping
Love it
170 usd for 1080ti + 3060 thats just crazy,
In my country for this pricr you would find a single 1660 or 2060 if you are lucky enough...
Fr bro last week I found a good 3060 ti for 200€ (they usually go in my country for 300+) and I thought that that was really cheap but his deals were insane
He 100% mined with the gpu
what a glow up
Can anyone tell me the name of that white sama case?
Wish you could post more often love the vids
The windows key website is not legit it can deactivate after a month or so
Spraying that paint in your house? LOL scuff the plastic with a scotch pad and wipe with Prep-all. You wont have that issue again.
I managed to get a windows 10 pro key for £10. compared to the £100 or so Microsoft was asking for.
With the RTX 3060, it probably was a mining card.
A 3060 for 70 is ridiculous
W babyy
