    It was a blast showing you around Huaqiangbei, Linus! Thanks for taking time out of your insanely busy schedule. Turns out my editor already has a decent editing rig, so I'll be giving this PC away to a lucky fan in an upcoming video. If you're interested in winning this PC (and some cool and rare Strange Parts swag) definitely keep an eye out for that video.

    As a Chinese, I can tell you that all the products in these stores are all dynamically priced, meaning that the shop owner usually make up the price on the spot based on the perceived buying power of different customers. Simple put, they're overcharging you guys.

  • @chengchengding4542
    @chengchengding4542 6 лет назад +2096

    Chinese fan here! So I'm gonna try and explain things a little bit here.
    First about component price, Comparing China and the US, the things u can get cheaper in China are:
    CPUs: In this video Linus bought a OFFICIAL CPU with stock cooler, however, a local Chinese who know his ways would be choosing something different for CPU. Shop in China actually sell CPUs that we call“散片”, which are CPUs that got produced in China but DIDN'T pass the quality test and therefore should have been thrown away, but we the "tricky" Chinese would pick from those imperfections and sell those still in fine but not great shape. Those "散片" CPU would end up 0.1 or 0.2 GHz lower in performance and have less stable overclocking abilities, but still it would fit for daily use. Typical thing with these "散片" are that they don't come with a box and stock cooler, but they are usually 100 Yuan(20 USD) cheaper.
    Also it is also a performance-per-dollar choice to purchase SERVER CPU and motherboard combo like intel xeon E3 or G4560(of course it is not entirely legal for individuals to purchase these, so isn't "散片" deals, but that is the "grey" area for the current law.)
    Cases: Unlike other components, computer cases do not require any high-tech to build, so here you can see many small brands selling all kind of bizarre cases, that are cheaper and, probably, use cheaper and lower-quality materials.
    About the mall, 华强北 in Shenzhen:
    Even though I live in Beijing, the great name of 华强北 is still famous to anyone interested in computer DIY. I think it's fair to say that it is the largest of its kind in all of China. And as you can see in the video, people there have things beyond imaginations in stock, and I'm pretty sure there are even more wired and less or more illegal products hidden in the back of their store. You can dig up pretty much anything in your wildest dreams, literally.
    As one last reminder, I suggest STRONGLY that Strange Parts find a more stable power supply by a bigger brand. Because the best expert on computer DIY in China can save money in every way for better preformance, but NONE of us ever dare to save money on power supply. Because those cheap products from tiny brands don't have very strict quality test and you don't know what key components they've replaced. In short the cheap power supply is VERY LIKELY to go KABOOM(I mean it) in the future. Let's try not to risk that, like seriously.

Fantastic place to shop for IT gear and unbelievable repair resources. From data recovery to finding a faulty chip in my Dell laptop and replacing it on the spot for RMB50 (AUD10). There is another 7 storey building where they do the repairs. Even if you cannot speak Chinese, they are perfect doctors! They find the problem and fix it. If you do not know your way around just go to a small PC centre and let them build it for you. The IT district is ok for pros and techno-savvy people who know what they want. The customer support is excellent.

      anti static bands are NOT electrocution prevention, theyre to prevent static building up on you and damaging a fragile component as you handle parts.

    As a Linus fan from China, I want to say that:
    1. It is EXTREMELY important to have a good translator in this case.
    2. You can save at least 30% cost with more accurate communications and more clear objectives.
    3. Please inform us before the next time you come to China!!!!
    I see some of the people arguing your attitude to the strangers, but I can somehow to understand people's feeling when they first time go to this kind of marketplace. Even as a native Chinese, it is easy to be tricked out at the place like Hua Qiangbei without a clear objective. The retailers is actually prepared to bargain with you, but you just accepted that ridiculous price...
    There's like 2k comments under this video in the Chinese video websites that are suggesting better purchase plans and calculating how much extra money he spent in his tour.

    hyper x fury ddr4 RAM isn't bad it's what i used, before I switched to my fury beast 3200Mhz 32Gb ram stick I was using 2 ram sticks of 2666Mhz hyper x overclocked to 2800Mhz 1 was 8GB the other was 16GB i was worried they wouldn't run together being different memory but suprisingly it worked fine with 24GB of Hyper x Fury ram as long as they're both ddr4 and run at the same Mhz clockspeed there's no issue, had to swap em out for the new ram though if you stick in 3200mhz with lower ram clocked ram you have to cap it down to the same speed!
    so it was a choice between underclocking the new ram with the 16GB of old ram overclocked (my current mb only has 2 ram slots) so it's all met at the middle of 2800Mhz and having 48GB of ram running at 2800Mhz or going for the faster ram at full base clock of 3200Mhz with just 32GB
    I am looking at a new x570 mb though (like i've said before under prev vids I got a r5 5600x waiting in a box can't use it on this one) that new motherboard should be able to handle 128GB of ddr4 ram and I heard that ddr6 around the corner one friend of mine told me it's already here... but right now it doesn't seem necessary and i'm not looking for upgradability to whatever the latest is in 3-5 years just upgradeability for GB's of ram, gpu and cpu (and m.2's the new mb has 2 slots with their own heatsinks)
    still I wish here in the uk this kind of pc market existed up here in northern England my closest cities have nothing like this as they're only small cities although considering the nearest city has a super college/uni campus now (probably the largest up here now) and theres large emphasis on arts especially technology and videogames courses I imagine the growing demand for pc's and laptops might result in new hardware stores being opened in the city
