Hi Zach! Thanks for reviewing one of mine!
I appreciate all the positives and all the recommendations! Thank you for taking the time to help sellers and Jawa as a whole get better! Looking forward to more videos like this one!
My systems do include a quick start guide, a benchmark summary, and receipt breaking down total cost for sales tax reasons. How lucky I am to forget to include this stuff on the most important one!!!
Apologize for the paint on the packing, I'm sure that if it was any other color this wouldn't have been a point. I do a lot of custom work requests to paint GPUs, I often use anything I have at arms reach to clean a clogged nozzle or mask off paint and this was the first time I've done a candy apple red GPU (Really does look bad on that white foam though). Thanks, I will check my packing materials box for any paint (particularly red) from now on.
- My quick start guide does address the power supply check, and GPU video guide with pictures. I promise it has been included and will continue to be included in all my future builds!
- Although, I am not sure why or how the LAN drivers are not present, I do a test installation of win10 to run all my benchmarks using a LAN cable for internet access. This one is a mystery and a real thing to check from now on. Thanks!
- The power supply is "technically" new. It was purchased on Amazon, but I received the wrong model. RAIDMAX Vortex RX-800AE 80+ Gold. The package did not look in excellent condition, so I decided to label it as not new to avoid a long explanation. I understand that it may not be the best out there, but at 800W and 80+ Gold, it is definitely more than okay for a power efficient build.
- The windows installation is OOBE to adhere to Microsoft's legal stuff! Technically setting up a PC for a customer is not entirely legal, so I've been advised... I've always done the complete setup with drivers, RGB software, etc. but I decided to omit that and go with the Jawa Commission Build rules and setup all my builds as OOBE evenly.
I'll like to continue the trend that Toasty Bros started by offering a free Micron 2TB sata SSD addition to the next 3 sales on Jawa that mention this comment and your video!
I’m glad you took his criticism the right way
Should have had you paint that Zotac card white, WHOOPS.
Highly, HIGHLY recommend Gaming Workstations for your next PC. Stellar builds, stellar pricing, and stellar support.
Thanks for being a good sport about this! I truly had no idea Zach was doing this review. I'm not surprised the overall impression was positive - you're one of our biggest and best sellers! And we had no idea Zach was a blood spatter expert on the side... ;) Personally, I like using packaging rather than throwing it out, but I understand the criticism since we want to be competing with the larger PC companies out there. Thanks so much for being a valued Jawa seller! -Amanda, CEO Jawa
As a fellow seller, I commend you, your PC overall is quality and with the budget range you were working with you did great.
Great pc! With using this feedback to setup pc better etc, you maybe can charge a bit more:P
If someone has blood splattered on foam around my pc. I’m buying more from them.
Their willing to bleed for me. I need more like this
🤣
Now there's a take that I didn't knew I needed, but I'm glad it's here. Thanks
Remember, blood turns brown when it oxidizes. So it's very obvious that it's not blood.
Also I understand and prefer the single extension on the GPU. Between the choice of no extension or that for the same price, I like this because it means no stupid dangling extensions.
My guess as to why GWS only used a cable extension on the GPU is cause most of the cable kits that you can buy come with multiple GPU connectors and a lot of cards only require one 8 pin connection so you end up with a bunch of left over cables. So instead of letting them go to waste they toss the extras in more budget builds to add some aesthetics and not spend a ton on a whole cable kit.
ive done this before i always save the extras
I was thinking the same while watching the video, saw your comment and figured I'd reply
Exactly! Can't let them go to waste :)
Exactly. As someone who builds/sells 20-30 machines a month, I do the same thing as Gaming Workstations. Utilize the extra cable extensions to keep them out of the landfill and spruce up the build a little bit, without adding cost.
That very well could be what happened!
This is such a great video! I just found out about Jawa and bought my first PC from them. It's great that you have equity in the company, and I am very impressed with them so far. I hope they continue to grow and more people find out about them because they’re a far better and safer option than eBay. I bought my PC for around $870, and it has the same type of case that you show in this video but with slightly updated specs. So far, the seller has been super nice, responding extremely quickly and being nothing but professional, kind, and friendly! I hope you continue doing business with them because I am thoroughly impressed! I can easily see Jawa becoming the number one online computer retailer in the next couple of years. It gives me peace of mind that consumers have safer options, especially if it’s their first time buying a gaming computer! Thanks again-awesome video!
decent buy. last weekend i picked up a 75 hz monitor, corsair keyboard and a full pc build for 275. Seller said the pc didnt boot and needed new parts. I tore it down cleaned it all and tested everything individually to find no issues, so i did new paste and put it back together..pc booted right up. Ryzen 2200g with an evga 1070 and 16gb of ram. even tho its outdated i still feel like its an insane value for the performance im getting. Only had to buy a mouse for it
Haha wow that's awesome to hear! Love those kind of deals.
Thank you for being so open about your position, a lot of people wouldn’t say anything, even if they did they would be discreet, so thank you Zach.
Transparency for sure over here!
Regarding the power supply, this is the Gold rated one which means it is indeed tier C speculative. We know it's built by Andyson on platform code Q8, but not much else.
Thanks for the info!
TIP: If you don't have ethernet or a WiFI card you can use an android phone to share the connection via USB. It's "USB Tethering" in the cellular hotspot section.
guys go to 14:37 if you want ANY information at all
I understand why he went with the GPU extension cable, it is the longest and most prominent cable than the other two are.
Is the power supply, the first thing on the customer checklist?, It could get Switched Off, during packing or unpacking the PC.
This is nice Zach!!!
Blood dries to a brown color. If this foam had showed up to me, I would honestly be glad that it wasn't just tossed in the bin because of a little bit of paint.
I have used Jawa to buy used graphics cards a few times, and while the selection is tiiiiny compared to eBay the prices are not rarely slightly better. Scored a 5600 XT for, if memory serves, 85 dollars. That's a steal for a very competent esports 1080p card.
This is pure gold. Thanks for the undercover buys, more pls!
Glad to hear it!
The only thing I dislike about jawa is that there is no international shipping or I'd have ordered one a while ago.
As a seller on Jawa, I really think the future is extremely bright. This video definitely helps, but the only thing I don't necessarily agree on is the stance towards updating the BIOS. I've always been in the camp of, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. If the PC is working fine with the current BIOS, I wouldn't update it.
Now they might upgrade the RAM a couple months later, it's not fully supported because you were using an older B450 or A320 and they might have intermittent BSOD. Or they might upgrade the GPU down the line and can't seem to enable SAM. It makes perfect sense to update the BIOS before selling it.
I used to be in this camp as well but lately there have been many security issues and important patches that warrant such an update, I always update to the latest Bios before selling to a client.
You actually aren't allowed to setup windows for people. I think thats why he did that. Also i don't mind the 24 pin and cpu cables not having extension, you don't notice them as a normal gamer. And those gpu cables are always leftover extras anyway so better than to go to waste
Honestly I thought it was a cosmetic choice to blend in the graphics card
Nice review!
Thanks!
I like the videos and its all good content but I feel like you can be a little too strict on stuff like the red on the foam
They are a much smaller seller so you cant expect such high standards same with the guide sheet some people just look to flip and sell quick on deals and like you said there is a small profit margin and so that would just be adding to the cost time and effort.
saw jawa on daniel owens channel and thought the idea was really cool. nice surprise finding out youre a big part of the company! :) was bummed that its only america based right now, any plans on doing stuff in canada?
I am in the medical field and that does not look like blood but I can kinda see your point.
4:33 Nice little L.A. Noire reference
I recently made my first ever custom pc build with rtx 3060 and 5600x and my idle temps are 32 degrees and 40-50 degrees respectivly and in game it just goes beyond like gpu 80-90 degree and cpu 70 to 80 can you advice me how to lower my temps?(i am using stock cooler and my case is kinda cheap it has 3 intake fans and 1 exhaust but the front of cabnet is of glass rather than mesh )
Thank you
This should be listed as sponsored content 😂😅😂
The power supply could have been a corsair CV 550 / 650, new of course. Given that the price is good, even if the PC is 50 dollars more expensive, it would be worth it
Got an email from Jawa asking what I was looking for. I said exactly what GPU I wanted. No response. Waited for several days.
Bro I can't wait to sell something on here not for money just for the fun of building a pc
The look is pretty clean for the price. Alot of times builders dont make budget pcs aesthetically appealing which just because you dont have a high budget it shouldn't have to look like crap.I also believe there should be some focus on these smaller case builds for younger kids who play simpler games Roblox etc with decent specs and appealling at a good price..... especially geared towards girls that like to play alot of builds are not made for them.
Back in late 2020 I purchased a PC from Amazon from Skytech and the main issue I had was they didn't set anything up so my Steam games wouldn't run and wasted 15min trying to figure out why nothimg would launch.I did get a full refund as I was not happy with the PC which also had a sketchy PSU.
my friend bought one to for a year ago it was a scam pc off course so I got him to refund it and it didn't even have a integrated gpu so I built one for him instead and guess what he paid for that pc 600 dollars
Zach when is jawa gonna become global? I have reviwed the site multiple times and it looks amazing but it is not in EU hopefully we could see that in the future
Can someone tell me a different case to use for the itx 250 pc build he build last month for a more international person because Newegg isn't the good for international people
Is it possible to upgrade?
the 800 watt psu💀💀💀💀💀
You should do one of these with radiumpcs
Is jawa the shipping for jawa international?
When is your pc's gonna be in stock?
I'm eating mee Jawa and watching this video 😂
How you do turn it on
I kid you not
I was gonna buy that exact pc 😭
Or something super similar
Sorry for snagging it lol. The seller has a ton of other options :)
As a person with blood, that has seen blood. Blood goes brown within like a couple minutes.
Also his commissions and higher priced pc’s look hella dope even his more mid ranged.
is pro settings on fortnite high or low on the settings spectrum>
Funny enough I know a buddy for a long time who been doing his own pc business and the one I bought from him is a i7 9700 Intel core, rx 6600 xt GPU, 16 gb of ram, 1 tb of storage, can't remember the power supply all for 550 USD, and he told me if i have issues eith the gpu i can send it back to get a better one or a Nvidia one hes posted this both on ebay and jawa
Profit margins definitely a problem now, have had a system up for over a month that if it sells will end up making me 52 dollars profit.
I5 12400f + Arc a750 wich power supply i should by
im planning on getting a pc from jawa and i was wondering if it is good
can we buy it from canada ?
Do you have to do shipping on Java and you're selling? I can't figure out how to locally post something. I'll deliver to anybody for free in the area in my own car.
I like this case so much, I don't know if my psu would fit though so I'm hesitant to buy it
It can fit a full size ATX PSU so I’m sure yours would fit.
@@Mstained really? Because I could have sworn the toasty bros said it couldn’t, but if that’s true I’ll be buying this immediately
@@tankdjsims yeah I’ve used it a bunch and it fits ATX PSUs no problem :)
I dont wanna be that guy but you can make a 550$ build with a RX 6600 (77% faster than 1060 6gb according to techpower up) brand new
That being said Jawa is still great but the pc choice is questionable
what u can build vs what prebuilt u can buy will always be very different. Obv building it yourself is the best value but then its not a prebuilt. Idk why people still point this out every video.
@@daytimerocker3808 I understand that but this prebuilt is terrible value... even amongst prebuilts... a GTX 1060 3GB
@@stevensouillard5997 well that is certainly true
Zach I got a pc with a ryzen 5 2600 and a gtx 1050ti and 16gb ram for 240$ is that good
Does Jawa shop worldwide
can you review Kyusha
pc
Definitely didn't look like blood to me, but it's a fair point.
What are the fans in that case?
Rgb fans
For $500 that’s not great. The 1060 3GB is iffy at best and should be avoided moving forward unless you get one for like $30 lol
sadly not available in canada,,
Good price to performance is a GTX 1060 3gb for 535???? lol ok man
It is for prebuilts in this price category. That look ain't cheap and as far as I understand, the 535 were including shipping? There needs to be some profit margin. Of course I can build this or something similar for $400, or considerably less with used parts and some deals. But as far as I understand, the seller (according to their comment) transfers warranty and specifically tries to buy as many parts new as possibly.
Is the 5600xt better?
@@ZanZamyes, the 5600xt is much better. the 1060 6gb is still good
@@b0ne91not really a good deal considering I got a rx 6600 and a i7 6700k with 32gb of ram for only 575
Does your shop ship to uk?
Just the US, sorry
Will Jawa come to Europe? I need this. I bought my parts from eBay and got a similar 10100f and 1070 for 400$ but no cable extensions, no good case and only 400w PSU
Why get a PC from the US. with the money shipping cost you can build a high end PC in your own country. its a waste of money just get your parts from the country you live in and build it yourself. or find a Prebuild company in your country and buy from them.
@@metalvideos1961 bruh no but open Jawa in Europe so i as a German guy can sell parts there and others can buy parts there. I don't mean to buy from the us
@@krustiques772 Germany is already cheap with electronics. Also Germany got perfect stores for this already. I am Dutch and jealous of Germany. We don't have that here
@@metalvideos1961 what stores that you mean? I used eBay Kleinanzeigen now...
Does Jawa ship to UK?
Unfortunately no, not yet.
So i have question
I
Is there any plan for other countries like india
I mean is jawa going to launch world wide
i hate it that i am in the netherlands i mean i see pc that i maybe would buy and than i look at shipping and i see us only 😫😫😫😫
I'm always super skeptical that the Fragile stickers do anything other than paint a target on the box.
Meh I disagree. I'm not saying they work all the time, but I would definitely recommend using them versus not using them as a seller.
Bought my first gaming laptop. Feeling cool as a cucumber, then I start YouTubing gaming computers/laptops, rabbit hole later.. I read comments like under this video.
Deflated and realizing
I know less then nothing.
Can jawa ship it to Iran?
It's only in usa 😞
i got pc to jawa its 😊 good 💯
Used components without stating such = scam. 1060's haven't been in production since 2020, and I believe 2018-2019 from EVGA.
1660 super in my 500$ build😂
Can you plz give the a pc?

(Will switch this Pinned Comment to Gaming Workstations & Services comment once I see it)
Lol
No nit the 3 gig 1060 😢
Could you make another 200 dollar pc
I love you ❤😂
Question: does jawa accept payment in euros ?
why would you as a european buy something over seas from the US. thats literally a waste of money. you want to know how expensive shipping would be? all that combined you can literally build a high end PC that last you for 8 years easily. tons of good European pre build pc builders.
@@metalvideos1961 Ok, thanks for the suggestion 👍
@@vinciscur5432 Where do you live in europe if i may ask? because i am European as well maybe i can help you or something
@@metalvideos1961 Doesn't matter, I ended up choosing to build a pc myself, thanks for your help
Do you guys ship to Nigeria?
Nah only usa
Oh god. Not the fragile sticker.💀 Shipping workers go out of their way to beat the shit out of any box with fragile on it.
the logo is the one a clan on jedi academy named jawa use lol
real Blood, would be dark if its drying out..
Wasn't bro in the military? He should know this
I been watching u for years! So I decided to try it out. Wow, that was shitty!! If u want 1/4 of what its worth . Aka videocards. Ill be sharing my thoughts.
Going through the windows setup is not very legal as the user needs to agree to the ToS of all software
You’ve never seen blood, have you? Other than being a shade of red, it doesn’t look anything like blood.
Isnt it illegal for a pc seller that isnt selling like a used PC to install windows? So wouldnt sysprep make sense in this situation
Sir I'm lost I'm begging you can you pls build a budget gaming PC with rx 6800 plssss
have you ever seen blood? clearly that wasn't blood.
Not blood, dried blood has a unique colour to it and it is not as vibrant as that red. That red is pretty obviously from some other kind of pigment, still I understand the possible concern of someone who is not related to medical fields (or biomedical research field, like myself).
Do my build next once i post another build
Is Jawa legit?
oof 3gb gtx 1060 would rather have an gtx 1650
This PC is almost unusable for gaming, for $500 you can get a PS5 which uses an RX 6700 as the GPU which costs less and would be about 120% faster.
In what world is this almost unusable for gaming 😂
@@paxton_6569Anything modern requires more than 3GB of VRAM and a speed about double what this GPU can process. For $500 you just got pranked basically. That GPU is worth about $40 so for the most expensive component to be less than $50 means you are completely overpaying.
You didn’t even need to go undercover
30 min
Yo dude! Just bought a 500 dollar prebuilt from Jawa and man it is great… it’s my first gaming pc too
A GTX 1060 build for $500USD? Absolute rip-off!
bruh i have 50 bucks
Any updates?
Trading cryptocurrency for profit is highly risky, but it can also be profitable for those who invest wisely.
1060 for 500$, this is a joke
I know 😂
