I've bought much cheaper computers off of eBay and some of them weren't even auctions. They were "Buy It Now" listings. Recently, I bought a lot of two thin client PCs for a total of $14.02 USD and the funniest part was that despite the PCs both being in very poor cosmetic condition and one of them was super dusty, they worked just fine and the hard drives weren't removed. Luckily, the hard drives were wiped. It's amazing how cheap computers can get on eBay.
It’s really luck of the draw. Sometimes you can get them for really cheap, other times they are more pricy. My best deal was probably getting a thinkpad t530 for $140 including upgrades. It was only $30 for the base system. It came with a dual core i5 and 4gb of ram, but I upgraded it to a quad core i7 and 16gb of ram. It was even the model with the dedicated NVS 5400m. They aren’t great dedicated graphics, but better than the igpu.
damn right ive i told my friend yesterday my laptops 300$ can run games i wouldnt believe it could even run and plays 4k fine and it should last a long time u can buy entertainment for like 20 bucks emulators roms if u know u know
Ssd are the saving grace for old computers, I know a lot of people that got rid of their older computers because it felt so slow but if you upgrade the storage for an SSD instead of a aging hdd, it makes it feel like a brand new system most of the time, and for browsing and stuff it's still is perfectly usable
yeah the controller issue is that by default Windows 7 doesn't include Xbox controller drivers, in fact, back in the day when Microsoft sold Xbox 360 controllers "for Windows" they were just a regular 360 controller but with a DVD that included the driver, some third party controllers also included a driver disc, I had one and it came with a little disc to install the drivers, but since my laptop at the time didn't have a DVD drive I had to download them from the internet, turned out the controller didn't use any sort of specific drivers, it was just an Xbox 360 controller and used the Xbox controller drivers
Got my current machine (HP 290 G1) from eBay earlier this year for about £50 ($63.91), has a 7th gen i5 processor with a 256GB SSD (had a fresh copy of 10 on it) and 8GB of RAM. After upgrading it to 16GB of RAM and installing a GTX 1650, it's now a pretty capable entry level gaming PC that can play some of the newer titles to a decent enough level and it's super quick! The SSD really made a difference! It really shows how cheap you can buy an office PC from sites like eBay and how you can turn them into a pretty solid modern day machine.
People who watch smaller content creators and just compare them to bigger content creators kind of ticks me off. Yes, that's probably who inspired them to be a content creator. Just because you see similarities doesn't mean they're trying to copy that person's video's
7:13 i love that song, thats the one that came with my windows 7 computer, it is such a classic i always used to listen to that on my windows 7, and yet ive still got my windows 7 sitting the cuboard right below where my mac is currently sitting, i have got millions of burned discs with that song, and yet i havent listend to it forever
My dad found 2 computers almost exactly like that in a dumpster at his work. neither of them would boot until I put different ram sticks in them. The only difference between them and your computer was the sticker said Windows 7 instead of 8. The hard drives had been wiped, so I installed Windows 7 on them, and it barely worked, but when I installed Linux, it worked like a charm.
I own one of those(used to be in my old school, they got replaced with laptops) and I have 3, one from 2009(works, but motherboard or CPU is damaged, I replacement CPU’s and none of them work),2010(I think) and 2012(doesn’t work)
I think the reason for jelly car having 300x200 as a resolution is because it was also released on the DS, and the steam version may be a port. I really don't know the real reason, but I do know I used to play jelly car on my 3DS.
Just bought the same one has an i3-4150 8GB RAM and a 128GB SSD for around 40$, I have a spare i5-4460 so im gonna pop that in aswell as a GTX 1050. Gonna give this to my Sister as a christmas present cause she wants to play Sims 4 again and will work well for simpler games too.
I remember seeing those computers during high school. Also my friend has a much older Thinkcentre that was from the IBM days which runs Windows XP and he uses it to run this cool arcade emulator machine
My first brand new PC was an i7 of this generation. They still hold up very well today. Just need a GPU and you can fly with that little guy. Something like a 1050Ti doesn't need PCI-E power connectors!
Internet coincidences happen. Michael MJD and action Retro realeased videos on the same pcs withing hours of each others. Always room for a different view.
I have that same computer and I use it to practice DJing at home (When I'm not gigging) it runs the dj software with no lag, I upgraded the memory to 16 gigs.
Well,this kind of pcs are actually pretty capable,I used as my daily driver a couple of dell optiplex,390 and 3010,the first with i3 2nd gen and second with i3 3rd gen,both with 8 gb or ram and windows 11,I used them also for light gaming,such tboi or Minecraft. 390 mobo is dead,I trown it,3010,I gave it to a friend of mine,now has 500gb ssd and 16g of ram and is really snappy,even with Windows 11 on it. He uses it mostly with Autocad.
You guys are probably not going to believe this. But, I have the exact same pc that I still use. Instead mine has windows 10 pro, a i5 3470, and 8 GB of ram. (Can't forget the integrated graphics.) Also good video!
Hey, Just wondering can you make a video about putting a gpu into the 50$ pc, Like a gtx 1080 nothing to powerful :). Anyways if you could reply that would be great, And I love your videos they are very interesting and cool.
The first number in Intel’s number scheme is what generation of processor you have and the second number is what processor it is Also, that has similar specs to the base model 2012 iMac with less RAM and it might be a slightly difference queue of i5 but the same generation
LOL THAT OUTRO u slapping the pc sounded just like your outro music if you didnt take that pause would have been *the* perfect segue to the outro even the rate at which you slapped matched the music
I have a similar computer (which is my main PC) from the same era It has i5-3470, 14GB RAM, and I plugged in a GT 1030 GDDR5 which plays games just fine (I really need to upgrade now i know) Edit: it is HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF
Guess what, I have these exact computers at my school. Just have been trying to figure out how to use a USB to boot off this thing. To reinstall windows. Since the last batch left it woth quite a bit of viruses.
This gen of towers kinda sucks unfortunately, they overheat and if you mess with the ram too much, it can actually kill the board, a good thing tho is that there’s so much of them you can just swap it out with another one when it breaks

they both seem inspired by Druaga anyways. And Druaga was probably inspired by someone else. There's no such thing as a wholey unique idea.
The fact that thing can run portal with 4gb shared between the cpu and the GPU, with aero enabled, is simply incredible
this is enough welcome back MJD
4:01 Oh look it's a mouse stolen straight from my high school computer lab
Also despite the fact that GD says it can run on XP or newer... you need a completely separate program just to launch it on 7
9:57 "hum? ten MILLION"
You got a really good machine for the cheddar that you laid down on it. With some parts like GPU, Linux, and a better monitor. Cool video!
eve jumpscare 😭
I have found yet another great tech content creator. It's like a black hole. They never end.
The Windows 8 license that is installed in the uefi bios should be sufficient to run and activate Windows 10.
I'm like 51% sure that the single stick of ram is holding the system back and that's what might explain why games run much better at lower resolutions

Nice to see old pcs getting some new life playing games from the peak of gaming late 2000s/2010s
If $50 is cheapest then we are definitely in a financial crisis.
whilst your not bringus, bringus style videos are always appreciated
this video is epic thank you for making it lmfao

I bet that machine would make a great home server. That I5 would go a lot further with docker than the RPI could.

To get the Xbox 360 controller working, you need the Xbox 360 controller for windows software.
My first brand new PC was an i7 of this generation. They still hold up very well today. Just need a GPU and you can fly with that little guy. Something like a 1050Ti doesn't need PCI-E power connectors!

Of course he posts when i wake up! Good video as always!
i`m watching this on a Thinkcentre (i`m 27 seconds in to the video)
