I like how Matt emphasized the longevity of the products. Yes, you can go cheap, but too cheap becomes expensive when you have to replace so many parts. It was a good angle to go on and really contributes to our reduction of e waste
I love this series, but would love to see Broke VS Mid-Tier VS Pro setups/systems where you have a budget for each tier. For people like myself, I likely won’t buy a RTX 4080 but I might buy a 4070 if it’s justifiable 🤷♂️
In RUclips world your either Rich or your Broke.. I don't do the PC thing. I don't play any online stuff in any shape or form. So my PS5 and 65"C1 OLED is perfect for me. Offline story-driven games ON DISC I'd the only thing that makes gaming worth putting money into.
@@RedPillAlwaysGames don't even run off the disc anymore. They're basically glorified physical DRM. Which is fine, but saying it as if it makes you superior is disingenuous.
I would like to see a price range for each side of this challenge. I think Ken's broke set up would look a lot more comparable with like another hundred dollars. Seeing just how comparable you can get on a budget.
"Money = Good." this quote is actually true because if you're not good, you don't enjoy the game as much and won't spend money on the game or setup, if your good, you enjoy the game more and that encourages you to spend money because there's a reason, your happy and having fun in the game.
You know what'd be a really fun video idea? If you invited some fans out for this series and they got the PC parts at micro center or something and played against each other in different games. I'd be so down for that.
Honestly its thanks to videos like these that i've accumulated what is my gaming setup at the moment. Ken's right, its crazy how you can get high refresh rates monitors these days for so cheap! Keyboards? Look during Black Friday or Boxing Day, sometimes you can find good brands like Rosewill for 50$! Mouse? Surplus stores, that's where i got my G603 for 60$ and its a mouse that normally retails for 100$! The next upgrade of mine? Going Ryzen after using Phenom II for 13 years!
My first mechanical keyboard was a Magegee and I loved it. Til my daughter decided to crawl off my lap and onto my desk and knocked my beer over into it. lol, good times.
HA! I have that EXACT Magegee keyboard. Its awesome. For the price its really really solid. I got the blue switches but upgraded some of the keys with some gateron browns (spacebar, WASD, enter) love the hot swap and I would recommend that budget oriented peeps buy this as a starter mechanical keyboard
I bought one to keep as a spare. Really amazed for the price. My other keyboards are Royal Kludge and feel better but for 3 times the price. I got yellows in them.
as someone who uses magegee products. i can honestly say that if you're looking for a good mouse or keyboard. buy one from magegee. i own the same keyboard that they show in the video and its really good
I actually have that same Voyee Controller, & it doesn't feels bad like Mat saying it as is, it's really good for the price, maybe because he got a bit of bigger hands But anyway, Ken were pretty smart, maybe not the keyboard or the mouse, but everything else felt pretty great for that total spending
My homie lives in an RV, plays warzone on a ps4 slim with original controller. He consistently drops 30+ kills, many final circles and lots of wins. I could give him a 4090, high end m&k, 5million FPS and he would still drop 30+. Skill is skill and thats that.
Ken should have found one of the cheap mech boards with the Gateron optical switches and probably gone with like a Red Dragon mouse...he also should have spent some time doing cheap mods to the keyboard to make it feel/sound better to get a few bonus points. Sure, it might have made his entire setup cost like $200 total instead of $177, but there was definitely some wiggle room there to do small improvements that would have made a big difference...oh and I personally use a pair of MPow gaming headphones (that I got for like $12 from Walmart) which sound pretty good and have a decent mic). Since I'm actually broke, I know how it is to have to find the best deals while still trying to get decent functionality out of your gear.
Broke VS Pro but make it so that Austin gets to judge this time. Man always gets the short stick for some reason (antics, flex) and I really wanna see the rest of the team try to flex on Austin rather than him getting roasted every single time
I have a merc stealth keyboard been using it for over a decade. I use a Toshiba 120hz 1080p 39 inch TV for my monitor had it for 8 years. I use a logitec gaming mouse G502 Hero it replaced my more expensive gaming mouse because my cat chewed through the wire. I use a Logitech G935 wireless headset. I use a Xbox Shock Blue controller. My computer is the Acer Orion Predator specs Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz Geforce RTX 2060 16gb of DDR4 2666 RAM Has an 512 SSD and 1Tb HDD This is my broke gaming setup.
Here's my idea: What about a pointlessly luxury setup (Hermés mousepad ftw, you know, the stuff that are obviously overpriced) vs well put together lower midrange peripherals?
I love the quality of their videos even though they are edited in CapCut. I’m not saying capcut is bad I personally use it but I would expect a tech channel to use it. But I still love the videos ❤
Accessories today is soo much affordable than it was a decade ago. With the advent of streaming, cameras and mics gotten significantly cheaper and audio quality has skyrocketed. Cherry's patent expiring led to a flood of cherry MX clones that made mechanical keyboards dirt cheap. Mouse sensors have mostly stagnated so 10$ mice have similar performance as top tier mice back then.
I know it's all fun and games, but the moment I saw this video I said _"Just don't cheat this time."_ Let's be real, Austin not cheating is never gonna happen. 🤣
I really want to see a comparison again of racing sims. Going back to the first one makes me think that the pro one from then could have been even greater. Love to see this series back again❤❤
Actual simulations setup (flight, racing etc.) has always been expensive and to cater to the experience. Simulations hobbyists use to need a multi monitor setup before the advent of VR headsets that we have today just to simulate a racing game. The best setup I've seen is a racing setup with a omni theatre style projector. Just the calibration of the projector would be hard, but for a driving sims enthusiasts, it's all worth it. Playing FPS on it still sucks though.
KZ earbuds are the best value since 25 cent ramen packs, hard to believe you can get 20 dollars earbuds that are on par or better than 200 dollar wireless earbuds...not to mention you can make your kzs wireless too!
this can be summed up pretty easy in one sentence. if there are people out there who cant afford much and are used to gaming on a budget and are used to the reacurring problem like stutters delay lag and all sorts as well as being cracked at games anyway, they are going to be able to beat people with more expensive setups. my basic setup for a office upgraded laptop a rgb mouse and mouse mat totals to i think £267.00 total. £217.00 for the laptop £45.00 for the gaming mat second hand if not less i just dont remember £1.00 for a RGB gaming mouse with some extra settings and buttons which i only know of like half the buttons and what they do.
just hearing "broke vs pro is back" makes my eyes sparkle. its my favorite series y'all ever made.
yeah
Same I have rewatched over and over same wirh the intel extreme tech upgrades
I have to agree. I've watched all of the episodes multiple times and they never get old.
Yes

As someone who just got into this channel and Donut, I can't stress enough how much I love that you both have low budget vs. high budget themed shows.
Is the Austin evans account that replied to you fake? Because they replied to me too
@@neekojones7448 yes, of course they are.
How’d you get into donut? What do you mean by donut
@@Qwerty-uiop I think it’s autocorrect for denki
@@Qwerty-uiop "Donut" is channel for cars lol how can you not know that?? they are awesome!
This series just needs to be called "Ken always wins because Matt personally hates Austin".
honestly. its kinda annoying, since you already know the outcome regardless of how the good setup actually was (ken wins)
Exactly what I was thinking this is getting ridiculous.
And Austin sucks at games
^--- This i mean lets talk about all the negatives of going to cheap and then choose that setup anyway
they always give ken the win no matter what, that dude is mad corny too lol
I love this series, but would love to see Broke VS Mid-Tier VS Pro setups/systems where you have a budget for each tier. For people like myself, I likely won’t buy a RTX 4080 but I might buy a 4070 if it’s justifiable 🤷♂️
Buy 7900xtx instead faster than the 4080 for as low as 900 dollars
Justifiable. Yeah in this economy sure buddy

I loved this series and rewatch the old ones weekly we finally have a new one let’s gooooooo
Finally the series is back, this series is GOATED! Thank you
Yes! I also loved it
It should of stayed bead and buried
I would like to see a price range for each side of this challenge. I think Ken's broke set up would look a lot more comparable with like another hundred dollars. Seeing just how comparable you can get on a budget.
austin we want more bvp
agreed

can't believe it's been 4 yrs since the first one I was in 5th grade when I started watching now I'm in highschool been subbed for 5 yr

as someone who uses magegee products. i can honestly say that if you're looking for a good mouse or keyboard. buy one from magegee. i own the same keyboard that they show in the video and its really good
When you hear broke vs pro you think it’s some kids’ video, but this, it’s different. A masterpiece
ive seen every broke vs pro, and i think that was the best austin has ever done in cs go. so i do think that set up did help austin
Since you’re the pro at building things, you should really gave him the pro budget
No way Lmao, was just rewatching all the broke vs pro videos yesterday and it’s back today!
you should do the ultimate broke and the ultimate pro (basically, maxing out stuff)
when austin said ew to a 5600x and rtx 3060 it made me sad cause that's my exact setup lmao
I actually have that same Voyee Controller, & it doesn't feels bad like Mat saying it as is, it's really good for the price, maybe because he got a bit of bigger hands
But anyway, Ken were pretty smart, maybe not the keyboard or the mouse, but everything else felt pretty great for that total spending
Every time that Austin and ken do broke vs pro the keep one upping each other
That ramming felt personal.
My homie lives in an RV, plays warzone on a ps4 slim with original controller. He consistently drops 30+ kills, many final circles and lots of wins. I could give him a 4090, high end m&k, 5million FPS and he would still drop 30+. Skill is skill and thats that.

I’m HYPED FOR THIS!!!! let’s go bro I love this series if watched the old series like 5 times
I have almost the same Ken setup except for the monitor, but that Gawfolk monitor for $100 is really quite a steal.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SERIES TO COME BACK EVERYTIME I SEE A NOTIFICATION FROM RUclips I GET EXCITED HOPING THAT ITS A BROKE VS PRO VIDEO 😁😁😁
Broke VS Pro but make it so that Austin gets to judge this time. Man always gets the short stick for some reason (antics, flex) and I really wanna see the rest of the team try to flex on Austin rather than him getting roasted every single time
Yup
I'm Sorry but i'm team ken haha
Thank you so much for bringing "broke vs pro" ❤❤❤I missed this series
This new editing style is🔥! Like literally. I see fire all over the place!
Let's gooooooo this series is what brought me to this channel and it makes me so happy that it's back
I used to go back to the first episode all the time thank you
I love that you show you don't need to throw thousands down on a decent setup
Finally broke vs pro is back the ultimate battle
When Austin fell off the chair I lost my shit😂
Missed this so effing much.... and I also missed to see just how good at budgeting Ken is without needing to cheat lol
Video was funny and tech is good Thank You Duncan
I love the monitor that's the same one I got for Christmas super good for the price the poor one hahaha
I missed this series so much
I’m so happy this is back
YOO LES GOO NEW BROKE VS PRO🎉🎉

Love the vids keep up the good work man ❤
Been watching since 2020 , Love yall!
Let’s go he’s back!!!!
Ken's Jawline tho🐐🐐🐐
Break VS Pro, Fix or Flop and Fan Showdown are the best Tech Series on youtube.
Not gunna lie, i bought that magegee 60% keyboard a few weeks ago and for like 20 bucks. im so satisfied with it lol
YES!! THE BEST SERIES IS BACK!!
I have a merc stealth keyboard been using it for over a decade.
I use a Toshiba 120hz 1080p 39 inch TV for my monitor had it for 8 years.

This is my broke gaming setup.
One thing i want to upgrade is the ram.
Here's my idea: What about a pointlessly luxury setup (Hermés mousepad ftw, you know, the stuff that are obviously overpriced) vs well put together lower midrange peripherals?
YESSS!!! I was literally thinking of this just last night 😁 💯
I LOVE broke vs pro
Lets gooo!!! Austin finally gets the pro budget lmao I am truly excited to see what Ken does
I love these videos. Keep it up :D
i love the penguins at 10:00
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LOONGGG!!!!!
When I saw broke vs Pro I literally started crying and was happy to see this back 😊😊😊
I love the quality of their videos even though they are edited in CapCut. I’m not saying capcut is bad I personally use it but I would expect a tech channel to use it. But I still love the videos ❤
Yessss!!! So hyped... this is a good series. Good to see it again
You know given that Austin is a fan of Donut, we sound get a Broke vs Pro/HiLow crossover
The best series ever lets gooooo
maggee is prolly the best budget brand
My favorite series. Keep it coming
"but....he ain't a bot" is my favorite quote now

That Razer chair is great. I'm sitting in one right now and I love this thing.
YEAHHH SO HAPPY ITS BACK!!!
“You literally just scavenged these from our storeroom” 😂😂😂
Finally a broke vs pro episode thanks austin
I like the parts when they argue it's so funny to me fsr
I know it's all fun and games, but the moment I saw this video I said _"Just don't cheat this time."_
Let's be real, Austin not cheating is never gonna happen. 🤣
I love the wallpaper the pro setup has.
man I want the old broke vs pro back, where the actually build there setups also inside the budget. I miss that
LETS GOOOOOO BROKE VS PRO IS BACK
the editing is way over the top
Matt, I like that wallpaper. its hilarious!
yo Matts outro was amazing.
This video premise, but room styling tech. Would love to see y’all do this video
Having had both a SecretLab and the Razer chair featured here, my back will opt for the SecretLab 100% of the time

@@wahidpawana424 Best racing sim's are at every F1 factory. There are around 1-5 milion € and are absolutely AMAZING!
Finally brought this series😭😭😭
those broke earphones are the budget king
KZ all the way..
Lets gooo! I love this series
18:08 the space button is upsidedown lol
Anyone noticed the penguins dancing on the couch at 9:51 ?
I’ve been waiting for this shit for months 😭
The tungsten cube is a huge part of anyone’s setup 🤣
KZ earbuds are the best value since 25 cent ramen packs, hard to believe you can get 20 dollars earbuds that are on par or better than 200 dollar wireless earbuds...not to mention you can make your kzs wireless too!
Pls make more of these we need them
bro same broke vs pro is the best series ever

my basic setup for a office upgraded laptop a rgb mouse and mouse mat totals to i think £267.00 total.
£217.00 for the laptop
£45.00 for the gaming mat second hand if not less i just dont remember
£1.00 for a RGB gaming mouse with some extra settings and buttons which i only know of like half the buttons and what they do.
My man’s Austin got robbed 😂
You should do a broke vs pro ergonomic/workstation setup I think that would be pretty cool
They have a guess what Ken won that one there saved you time on watching the b.s of a series.
