Really glad gamestop is getting into pc parts. There was no need to reinvent the wheel, just provide a better alternative to newegg and as far as I can tell, they're doing that. 2 weeks for the gpu is gross but it's far better than "7 to 31 business days" that newegg has been letting their sellers get away with.
Don't pick a seller from China and that won't happen.
I will stick with Micro Center if you have one near you.
@@Raansu Physical games are not disappearing it’s just companies are doing half lazy releases and selling you the rest Val DLC not to mention they wanna control your games via DRM & such, i will always support both media if given the option.
They can easily become a bigger microcenter in the next couple of years.
That stock thing really got them goin I think
@@Raansu The real reason for this isn't because "devs are lazy," it's because load times are significantly faster even if the only difference is loading off an HDD vs the disk. And current gen consoles (PS5, Series X/S) have SSDs. Actually loading these games off the Blu-Ray would probably multiply your load times by 10.
Austin! I didn’t know much about tech before watching your channel, just build my first pc because of your expertise and humor. Thank you sir!! Keep it up!
Same I'm building the exact same PC that was in the building a PC in 2022 video
If you are using this dudes tips your pc gonna fall apart
If you only watch Austin Evans then you still don’t know much about tech 💀
Wait a second... this is a PC build tech channel!?!?! :O
Same
Anything to make GameStop the Amazon of Gaming :)
This is the way.
@@covfefe9254 did i find my people??
GameStop should come out with a flagship cellphone, marketed to teens and college gamers.
@@blackleague212 I’d throw away my iPhone for a GME phone
@@Brennan-yf4yv did we just become best friends?!
As a GameStop employee, currently watching this while working, I can say we do have great deals
Same. Make me wish I could point out that the website filters for out of stock... or you know that we are expanding to have this stuff in store. The closest microcenter to me is like 3 hours away😥
Always nice to hear, now if you could just work on not ripping people off when they come to trade or sell items you'd really turn things around in terms of reputation 👌
No you dont that pc is absolutely garbage for the price l
@@jordanroberts4965 better then me. im 9 hours from my closest one
@@agentmay0 get outta here, it’s not ripping anyone off if they accept it. Plus if you’re a pro member, you get more value than if not. You just have to be smart about these things, if it’s something that would sell fast: do it yourself.
Gamestop really has a lot more than people realize online
Who cares? With all the GameStop's that they closed, plenty of grown arse men don't have jobs now.
@@blackleague212 ok? And?

Sweet aural bliss?
@@GrandMental "oral bliss"
Grand Mental beat me to it
Lol
@@austinevans I like cheese. You stink
"this looks terrible" me with the exact same case crying at the corner
Can confirm this is all true. I needed to build a new rig for gaming and also for content creation, and while searching online, was pleasantly surprised by their offerings! Built my PC, but also got a gaming chair, lighting equipment and some other decor that fit my vibe. One of the items was sent wrong, but when I reached out to customer service they actually sent me the correct item and let me keep the incorrect item which I ended up using anyways. Shocked Pikachu face.
Similar experience for me. Their customer services has been on FIRE the last year or so
This is what companies do when they are starting up a new service. This is the company that gives people $0.25 for a game they resell for $30. This is the company that sells "Refurbished" consoles that are dirty and broken. Don't ever forget that. They just pimped you so you would advertise for them and it worked.
@@SomeOldGamers Wrong. A billionaire investor shook up the board last year and has been reinventing the company. Their new mission is to delight customers - just like they did at Chewy.
@@SomeOldGamers if getting pimped means they gonna keep letting me keep $30 products, then I'll gladly keep ho-ing myself out on the corner
@@vict1435 lol
When he said Gamestop is bringing power to the players i lost it
I actually just started my first build, going for a 100% GameStop sourced pc! Thank you so much for this video, you give great insight with a healthy/sincere tone throughout with lighthearted jokes at Gamestonks. I will give you a follow and hope to learn more about this field! I am very green.
Cheers!
I find it hilarious as someone who has been gaming for 40 years that you are proud of your "Game Stop Sourced PC"
@@SomeOldGamers Sounds like you’re saying you’re old and out of touch.
@@SomeOldGamers I like the stock, so it’s only natural I buy everything I can from there.. 🤷♀️ glad I could give you a chuckle!

GameStop is just starting to get into the PC parts biz. Gonna be even better a year later. Shout out to all the "But GaMeStOp iS a DyInG BrIcK aNd MoRtAr StOrE." haters.
Will that stop them from losing millions every quarter?
@@stever4233 I didn't know investing money into aggressive growth is called losing money. Good to know. How much cash are they sitting on again? Oh yeah, one billion?
You should tell all the execs from that jumped ship from other big tech companies to GameStop thst GameStop is losing money. I bet they didn't know that when they signed on with GameStop.
I'm not wasting time with someone who's already made up their mind.
As a GameStop employee, GameStop is absolutely dying. Any place they can only survive by only having one minimum wage worker run the entire store is a doomed business.
@@13loodLust aggressive growth? Revenue was up 6% while inflation 8%. They have 1b cuz you dumb fucks bought shares at 200$+, each quarter they burn more money. A growth company that doesn't have anything to spend it's cash on lmao. A bunch of mid level execs move for higher pay? Wow amazing. You're a clueless investor gonna lose everything
And GameStop is not a tech company loool
@@nonsensicalfox as the CEO of Microsoft I disagree
see how easy it is to make shit up on the internet
Hey Austin it's me from the subway in walmart just wanted to say that it was great meeting you and you were my inspiration to learn about tech and study about computers more in school and the reason I want to be a computer engineer
That’s rad man thanks for the delicious sandwich
This is so wholesome
@@austinevans omg you actually replied yea its np man
This is amazing and I wish I could have the same luck but I work in a small cafe in missouri
I actually was able to score a GTX 3060 12gb at 400 bucks at gamestop lol
Gamestop actually has AMD Ryzen CPUs as well, such as the 5700x, just not many AND Ryzen CPUs on there either, just saying
Yea I actually bought 3 things from gamestop for my pc as it was cheaper compared to other websites
Edit: Checked their stuff and they may have jacked the prices up.

This is a good step for Gamestop. For now
Yup yup, just gotta fix the ripping people off when trading or selling & they'd really be on to something 🤔
@@agentmay0 How do you think that'll be done?
@@agentmay0 It's not ripping off. You get to sell your games and consoles with ease just like you would at a pawn shop or when trading in a car. If you want fair market value then go sell it privately on ebay or fb and deal with low ballers, listing, shipping etc.
@@kickpuncher5572 I sold my games at pawn shops because they gave me more than Gamestop was offering

Austin always has a way to impress us
haven't been in the pc building space in a while, but got a recent itch but... holy crap. Hyper 212 for 45.99 normally 52.99... THAT is insane.
That is called "selling at a loss" to sucker in new customers.
@@SomeOldGamers Nope. It’s smart business management. They bought their inventory before the shortages in anticipation. That’s why they can sell at MSRP.
Why are they so expensive now? I got mine for 30 bucks
I almost spat the water out that I was drinking when I heard, "Are you saying that Gamestop is bringing 'Power to the Players'"?
Austin how much did you get for the PC? WE NEED TO KNOW!!!!
*Gamestop employee: "best I can do is 10 bucks"
"Actually we only have 8 bucks in the cash register so yeah take it or leave it"
Gamestop filling there pockets since 1999 👌
As Fan : Austin always finds great way to amaze us in he's videos.
You're absolutely right, He IS videos.

can i get a GS employee to chime in here? you're going to have people coming in for PC tech support and that's loads different than the sort of existing GS tech support which is more like "i like this video game" and "this console isn't powering on wat do"
shrug
they put 500 new customer reps in Florida recently.
Wow he bought all that and didn’t sign in using his pro membership for points 😣
1500 dollar 3080 ti
Yeah definitely msrp
Its all fun and games until AMD and nvidia decide yall are too rich for affordable GPU 🤦🏻♂️ ffs
What if you guys made a gaming PC using only pokemon card it would be amazing if you can pulled it true it but no way you guys will do it.
no way🤣🤣😎😎
Austin definitely got a great deal with $70 of store credit for a new video game
If Your Web Browser Is Not Loading Your Pages Properly Turn Off "Hardware Acceleration" In The Browser Settings.
Unpopular opinion: The RTX 3060Ti is a better valued card compared to the RTX 3060
its not unpopular, its true for MSRP and even most market prices
Also funny at Austin saying "for basically MSRP" when its like 200 bucks over MSRP even if MSRP is all fantasies
i like the stock, hedgies r fukt since last year . lulllllllllll
Are they acting like $1,700 is not a lot of money regarding a PC?
Nice umbreon pull, lol. more Pokémon openings please?
Austin u should build a top of the line pc in a razer tomahawk atx, im building mine with a 3090
Austin is smiling to hide his pain at 3:37 😂
First comment yay♥️♥️♥️ I love your videos
Ok do this same video but the first half. Go and ask a gsmestop employee to build you one. Basically instead of you knowing what you want. Have the associate inside order the parts for you.
This is what GameStop needed, now got in store parts with the same prices 👀

I work at Gamestop and it hurts seeing them have gpu's when I bought my 3060 for 800
Never knew 3060s MSRP was "basically" 500 $ but I guess he doesn't care
Cant stop, wont stop, GameStop 😁
I like the company.
Buying my next pre built from Gamestop's website instead of Amazon.
All my homies hate Bezos.

I'm now waiting for linus to send a cease and desist for dropping things in videos
I finally found someone that brought up Linus dropping🤣
Honestly that's a more powerful pc than mine and i paid roughly about the same price if you count the 3060 ti i paid 509$ for recently
How much did GameStop give you lol
I'll happily take the extra PC you've made here!
And they gave him 50 USD store credit for that pc bet 🤣
Bet you they're under new management, yet you don't leave your mothers basement to find out. Sit down with your ashy elbows 👀
Definitely lol, gamestop ripping people off since 1999
@@agentmay0 Company is being restructured, shows what you know.
Umbreon 🥰🥰🥰 4:06
Video Idea:
Compare a mid range Gaming PC from 2022 to a high end gaming PC from few years ago while having the price of both the same, it will help you determine what is the most bang for the buck.

The video ended before the best part! Really wanted to see how much Gamestop would offer in store credit
This is exactly what I came to the comments to find... bet they offered like $300 🤣
We need to see if gamestop truly does buy it back..
Yes! Please
Probably will, with a good 200 bucks if you're lucky
I believe they don't. Everything will be final until they decide to sell used components.
They don't. It was a funny meme to end the video on
Im just like austin i cant resist pokemon cards, i was buying parts for my first pc on amazon and i found pokemon cards online so i bought them with the pc and every pack i got a full art v or rainbow rare v but not lucky enough to get alt art, unlike austin i actually play the pokemon card game.
Nice video but I might add that PCPartPicker includes the provider product tax on the base total sum. So this PC is technically 130 dollars more expensive than what PCPartPicker found in the market.
I understand you are trying to be positive about the purchase but honestly it's on-par with most Pawn-style PC stores out there, making your own research is still cheaper.
Wait.. you said you bought one 8G and one 16G sticks of RAM for a total of 24?
How much could I get for my 3090?, employee at gamestop "hmm we could do 500 store credit or 200 cash"
forgot a decimal point between the first number and the rest lmao

I have autism and feel like building a gaming PC would be really relaxing for me cause I like to work with my hands but with the prices being like that I'd rather build a corner to cry In knowing I can't afford that lmao 😅
Pick up parts used aside from the power supply. It can be done.
best option would be to buy one used because it will be cheaper and you can upgrade it as you see needed. by monitoring which components are capping out you can upgrade those first to gain the max performance boost based on the tasks you often do
Seems like a good idea but after bills each month I never have enough for myself so I'd be lucky to be able to come across anything decent
