This might not have been a joke.
The video basically says you get what you pay for.
In this case you really don't because for 50% more cost you could have 200+% performance so you really overpaid what you got.
THAT is Bullsh*t. The APU is 6 years old and never was meant to compete against gaming machines. It was a really nice solution for HTPC or office PCs back then, outperforming the Intel/HDGraphics combination with its Bulldozer(?) cores and Integrated Radeon by a whole lot.
the video titel even includes the question "Can it game?"
the title was not "can it office?"
i dont really understand what you are going for.
Hang on, all you proved is that a crap CPU is indeed crap.
Why didn't you benchmark that cheap ass motherboard against another AM3 board?!
This board was my old computer a loog time ago. It was really reliable, I took it to friends places alll the time each weekend. It was not amazing, but with a "ok" graphics card it was fun to play a couple of older titles, and as an emulation machine it was fire. I kinda love that old thing.
What are those lies?! Everybody knows that the dankness of wallpaper memery, ads 15+ fps minimum
Did he even apply thermal paste?
I think since he was using a stock heatsink, and fan it came with preapplied thermal paste which in this case was good enough, but I could be wrong.
The skit was shot after benchmarking was done. Some components were installed just for the sake of the video.
Probably not given the fact he never plugged the cpu fan in ;)
Bro, do you even thermal paste?
no. at 4:50 you can see the baseplatethingy that sits on processor and theres nothing there

*:(*
The cheapest motherboard on the platform you want should be good enough if you're not overclocking.
Unless you're going for looks or something.
Nope, just look out for the CPU support and features (overclocking, M.2, etc.) you need, but among boards that supply those buying the cheapest is generally not a problem. Although Linus didn't test it, but I'd bet this -POS- board performs identically when compared to anything else with FM1 and this CPU.
I honestly wasn't able to tell much of a different between L Unit and normal Linus...
Josh Smith lol
Josh Smith lol
That chain actually prevented you from shocking the board, nice move Linus :)
serious question though: what about the "cheapest AM4" or the "cheapest LGA1200" motherboards? will those be fine outside of i/o and overclocking support?
You should mount a pc to the blades of a fan to see if that will cool it and how good it will be
Braden Barnes wires would get tangled up
the only problems would be cables
There are way around that
It would be a pain though

Probably pre applied on the cooler
@@TurboBG at 4:51, you can clearly see the cooler with no paste on it
There is nothing wrong with cheap motherboards, if they work for you. All they need to do is support your graphics card, processor, ram, and psu needs. If it works, it works, you can add usb hubs, you can ad 3rd part audio gear, you can add even core mother board cards too like NIC's, I run an MSI 990 FX mobo for an 8350 and 390x, its old, its not the newest pc, but it edits 4K like a champ, it plays games at 60 FPS, and I have everything I need.
Poroto, your PC, even as old as old as you say it is, it's a diamond compared to this cheapo mobo.
Yes he over-acted a bit... but it's laughable nonetheless.
People should avoid building systems with cheap mobos like this one... people need to educate themselves and avoid buy pre-built systems.
i have an old cheap motherboard which last had a bios update in 2012. running an 3770 + gtx1080 perfectly fine. although i did have to get a seperate soundcard as the audio especially at high volumes was lacking.
edit: i tested performance at 4k ultra in bf4 on various single player missions and it happily stayed around 70-90 fps
Hey Proto! Love your videos.
I'm using a £40 motherboard and it's perfectly fine, I've overclocked my 4690k to 4.9ghz and have a slightly overclocked Rx 480 and it's running perfectly fine, so cheap motherboards are awesome
Most cheap motherboards can't overclock processors that well
*So... you have a printer port... so usefull!*
FUCK YOU, printers have feelings too!
WellBeSerious12 dont worry its vista it crashed
Can we get a re-do of this in 2022? there's a few lga1155 motherboards on amazon perfect for budget builders. The only thing is there's not much info on the brands
So how does it compare to another board of that age? Or how does a cheap MB compare to a expensive one?
Is that a crunchyroll hat?
Audie Liem yes, it even has the price tag
Audie Liem I was just about to ask that too.

it's 2018 and I still use a6-5400k and an A55 board by gigabyte with 4gb of ram with a 768p monitor and a 500 watt psu with mustard and ketchup cable.

ecs h81h3 m4 + i5-4460 + rx580 4gb,,.
intel 1151 motherboards are $40-50, so whats the point. WHATS THE POINT LINUS?
americanv8ss that's his point
americanv8ss
.
That it's
I have one of those, i play bf3 and bf4 at 60 fps. Idk why he ridiculizes so much this hardware as it is not meant to play triple AAA games or to run with a fucking 1080ti. It is a mobo for basic things or light gaming..... simple as that and it is pretty cheap.
Ionut Daniel Serban the asrock dgs is constantly 30 dollars
americanv8ss You're right, I use an msi h110 board that I purchased for $52, and it works like a charm. Just because it's cheaper does not always mean it's shit.
Although I find Linus's insistence on reviewing absurd products somewhat disappointing, I certainly would appreciate it if he would review some reasonably cheap products since the highest volume motherboards/GPUs/etc. at the low end are rarely reviewed by big-name tech journalists.
Would you even trust their reviews though? Luke is likely the only guy in the whole studio who sorta kinda understands computers besides Linus, and even he doesn't quite have the methodical meticulousness to pull off a good benchmark or to notice some significant pitfalls, and he's better at it than Linus. The rest of them can't even assemble a computer from a bag of parts. I think it's a lost cause. Take it for what it is, computer-centric entertainment.
he did it so he can rub it into poor people not that he has money, he could have easily choose the h81m-plus from asus which is the same price and way better.. this video was a huge middle finger to anyone that's poor, he could have also made a comparison between all cheap motherboards and made a genuine review about it but no he made it so sarcastic
He's been over this, those videos just don't get views, no one actually watches them. Sure you might, but it's not worth their dollar to make those videos
Buildzoid/Actually Hardcore Overclocking is where you'll find that type of information. He does contractual work with Gamers Nexus so you'll find some other stuff on there.
You're right on. These products are a joke and a waste of time. They focus on the extreme ends of the scale which both represent a poor value, which only tells us not to buy extremely cheap or expensive products. It would be preferable if they compared mid-range hardware that 90% of their viewers are going to buy.
Was thermal paste installed?
2:07 just when i thought this channel was earrape-free lol
I return to this video every now and then just for that.
@Tedd Jasiczek

Linus looked so handsome at that end speech about the motherboard.
And I liked the video, laughed, and got the point about it. Come on guys, you're acting like you really needed to know if a 30$ motherboard is a good option for gaming.
It is backwards compatible with a lot of stuff though. If you have an old monitor and printer that thing could support them.
Yeh well technically RGB CAN affect performance, lightstrips can deliver some heat so the pc is getting hotter and the strips too and then it's as hit as the sun and boom.
(Or just don't have led strips..)

Wait so why are people butthurt?
probably butthurt from cringing so hard

Because there's a Hard Dick Drive in there.
So the A8 5500B won't work in this mobo?
Why you didn't put thermal paste
BUT WILL IT BLEND?
Looks like somebody had to stretch a video out to 10 minutes.
Did you really run that without thermal paste?
My general advice for buying motherboards: find out what motherboard chipset you want, what socket you want, what I/O you want, and what form factor you want, then get the cheapest one that fits those parameters. Aesthetics is really the only reason to vary from this formula because all that matters in a motherboard is the chipset and the list of things you can connect to it.
You guys clearly aren't day 1 Linus fans if this video upsets you. This is Linus's personality; he has off videos at times. Deal with it
ikr.
Well a lot of people rage at shit videos and it's also just their personality, on that note maybe you should also deal with it.
Anonimo Anonimo
So we're defending people with shit personalities now?
Not in the slightest of ways, he says that people should't be upset at a shit misleading video because that's Linus personality, that said, if he's so tolerant of personalities then why criticize people for being upset? That sure seems like a fanboy double standard.
skip to 6:48 if you want to skip the dank memes
i hope u put on some thermal paste in the cut out
How much was this board when it was first introduced?
You forgot to put on thermal paste
You're right.
That chip comes with a pre applied pad.

I know im late but 0:21, "Unless you buy a b150" what does he mean by that? ive got a b150m-a mobo
It means that you can't overclock... I think.

Keyshen its back up.
Hang on I'm new to PC building and this is all going over my head is this a good mobo?
+Carl Kun Watch the video again, if you still can't understand whether or not this is a good motherboard, just buy a PS4 Pro or Xbox1X. PC building can get complicated, but this video should be *very easy* to understand.
Seriously, even a regular PS4 would be better than this motherboard, this is *not* suitable for gaming. Although I wouldn't recommend a regular PS4, Xbox1, or Xbox1S. As someone with a PC from 2005, I am very disappointed with the regular PS4, I refuse to play any multiplatform games on it, even my 2005 PC can watch 4k videos, regular PS4 can't even do that. The PS4 Pro and Xbox1X are what the 8th gen should have been to begin with, almost all new TV's are 4k, and you will want to take full advantage of that.
If you want a suitable office PC where you won't buy a GPU or be playing any games, this motherboard will work as it is only suitable for typing word documents and internet browsing! And it will work with all your outdated used parts from 1998! Want to dig out your parents first keyboard? It will work here!
No
