Costco has what looks like a great budget starter PC on their website for $500.
This the full name of the product im talking about.
ASUS ROG Gaming Desktop - AMD Ryzen 5 3600X P - GeForce GTX 1660Ti - Windows 10.
I'm more interested in the specs of the motherboard because if its a B550 it's totally worth it in terms of upgradability
for 500 thats amazing
Let me know if you find anything else out I just looked it up and I think I want to get it only sus thing is I see no reviews
crazy...a year ago it would have been almost double that
@@qy-exotic7717 it is if the motherboard is a b550 its a steal!
@@5k_jay840 yea I tried looking a bit and couldn't find much but I'll let you know
hey pcbros, thank you for teaching me so much abt pcs! im almost 1 year in and have had 3 different pcs. i have just managed to build myself a pc from facebook marketplace for 410 dollar. bought an used pc for 300 dollar with pretty new components in it, a nice noctua case, ryzen 5 3600, 16gb 3600mhz ram, B550-plus motherboard, 750w psu, 500 gb samsung 860 evo sata ssd and a gtx 970. i sold the 970 for 90 dollar and bought a rtx 2060 super used for 200 dollar.
Your lucky. I sold my 970 to a friend in a build for $500 (it had a core i3) and I bought an RTX 2060 super for $450 when it was still new in August 2020. I should have waited
I'll be honest this setup performed better than I expected lmao
Probably a Kepler 730 then, I own a fermi one and it’s not this good.
still sucks tbh you can buy series s xbox for 250 which comes with controller and then add 100 for a monitor for a total of 350 and u get 120 fps on fortnite for example. but i guess it depends on what games you want to play and if you can play controller
@@DetectiveConan990v3🤓 🤓 guysh buy an xboxsh
@@DetectiveConan990v3also super wrong no monitor is gonna be 120 hz for 100 dollars and consoles can't play any pc games

I watched a few "we bought a pre-built for cheap" videos and for some reason everybody starts to disassemble the PC itself. I can't understand why not test the system as it is arrived and after the tests are done disassemble it.
Beside the urge to get system in pieces, it is a great video, great vibes. :-)
Also that keyboards just awful, it is so effing loud... I can't stand it.
It's been a long long time, but I had one arrive with instructions to open and check components before powering on. This was well before the interwebs were full of videos of delivery workers casually tossing expensive items about.
Dawid does tech stuff does it the right way
Maybe here its the time constraints?
The reason the graphics card was so hot is because 6th gen OptiPlex's usually have an intake fan to cool down the graphics cards. Though it looks like they got rid of it to make room for the rgb.
And they have airflow vents at the front
You seem like you are good with pcs could you play other ges on this like ready or not (I no nothing about pcs💀)
I feel like you can get better with an upgraded optiplex for that price but I guess a good portion of the money went to the customized front panel.
for some reason the pc in the video is performing better than my Dell Optiplex 990

i5-2400
16GB Of Ram

500GB HDD
@@2een0 no doubt you have the GDDR4 1030 and the 2400 is incredibly dated.
Looks decent, and the fact you got a gaming PC (albieit a converted Dell Optiplex), monitor, keyboard, mouse and other accessories for under $500 is pretty good!
Do you think this pc would run minecraft well? Assuming it was only used for servers to pvp on?
@@vectorslair1477 it ran fortnite and valorant with pretty decent and stable performance, I'm positive this setup can reach 150+ fps with optifine and low settings, if you wanna go full performance mode and use the Sodium mode (best mc performance boost mod right now) i guarantee you'll hit 300+ fps.
@@jesuispasvalid8392 more I have a laptop and I get near 100-200 fps
@@jesuispasvalid8392do you think it could run roblox?
@@ShadowGaming1952yea rovlox isnt too hard to run
I spent 170$ on all my setup and I have 270-290 fps at valorant, 144fps at fortnite and 90fps at gta v
Edit: I have i5-6500, 8gb ram and gtx 550ti, all components are from an office pc, and the graphic card I bought it for 25$.
I like the build. not bad for a starter who doesnt want to do any customization and wants it to look cool and perform decent. and also 1 more thing, in your benchmarks can you please add GPU usage and GPU mhz instead of the Temprature alone?. Thank you.
Gotta appreciate toasty bros for the daily content🙏🙏
they don’t post daily
@@Hell4Tay they’re a scammer and they said that in every comment section
@@SAMIAMFNX how exactly are they scamming?
@@limastall9279 They say that in every comment section
@@SAMIAMFNX ok, whats the scam?
I put Sapphire Pulse RX550 4GB in all my Optiplex builds. I ordered a heap off Aliexpress a couple years ago for $70 a piece. They pair perfectly with the i5-2400.
I upgraded one to a 2600 with a 1050ti. The small form factor optiplex I had I could swap in a 500w psu. So I put a 1660ti in it, well....half out of it too. Lol
This seller actually has RX550 on offer for $30 more.
@Y TUBE did you use a 6pin adapter to SATA or something? Or did you swap PSUs?
Hi Toasty bros. I’ve been following your content for a while now and you guys have inspired me to start saving up for a pc. Money in my family has been hard recently and it’s been hard to save money for the past few months. It’s always been a dream on mine to be able to play video games on device other than a Android. As of now I have saved up $115. I quit my football team to have more hours to work and earn money for my family and save extra money to go to my pc. I wasn’t sure if I felt comfortable to share this with anyone but I finally built up the courage to comment this. As I said before thanks for inspiring me and I hope y’all have a blessed day
I know u got this because you were smart enough to take action to achieve what you want that type of mindset takes you places
Depending on what your exact call is. The office computer with the cute stuff here is around 140 on ebay. Without a 730 in it.
Add a 1050ti for about 100 you have a very basic cheap can basically play anything on low. Few games at mids
Good luck with your PC search! Honestly, if you're keen and know what you're looking for, you can possibly get a PC build going for that price, and upgrade it as you go!
My most recent pickup (like last week) for example was for $40, and came with an 1155 motherboard, an i5-3450, 1x8GB DDR3, and a Radeon HD 7770. I threw it into a case that I got for free and cleaned up (Antec Nine Hundred) and added some drives, had myself a little budget gaming PC. I ended up picking up a ~$50USD RX 460 off of eBay for a little more performance.
There's definitely deals out there, so good luck with your search!
i know how you feel i have saved up for three years and i got mine toady!
wholesome
My two monitors were cheap. I snatched them up from the curb before the trash truck got them. 😄
The packaging is good, but the overall product it's strange to buy for this price ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
P.S. Great review!
St
That is what you get for that price. They have a version with rx-550 which is $550 (+$30 ) and it is probably much more "gamier" than this one.
Lmfao you're paying 90% for the quality of the box and 10 for the product itself.
@@Kareemle you can’t get any better than this for that price giving a computer, monitor, and peripherals. It won’t happen
500 dollars for a full setup and a pc is just too low tbh
I'm glad I came across this video. I have a tech magnet pc on the way, it's an Intel core i7 3.25ghz, 16gb ram, and a 2tb hard drive. I'm hoping this runs good. I went with the 24inch monitor. Hoping I don't have to sacrifice graphics setting, so we will see.
Hi! I'm currently looking at the same one! How do you like it? How does it run? Please let me know! Thank you so much!
It runs great! Once I got it all ironed out and setup to my liking, it's awesome.
@@sinist3rfpv672 thank you! I just went ahead and bought it!
I was hoping someone commented. I am completely clueless when it comes to computers and my 11 year old son is in to gaming. I don't have the knowledge or time to build one. I have a tech magnet on my Amazon cart. He is a beginner. He doesn't have to have the top of the line I just want it to work. Thanks guys!
Is it good I’m getting the same one
Me, watching all the budget $500 PC builds, while not having $500: "Hmm, I see. That would be a very good build to have."
same
If you even have a gaming PC period! You're doing better than most of us so how ultra fast it is ain't my issue it's price first!
That valorant whiff though
That link for the build goes to a single Optiplex PC
Fully semi-HD
this is what i was looking for thank you for reviewing
They have recently updated some of the hardware on this set up for the same price now on Amazon updated monitor and keyboard mouse set up and comes with a i7 now instead of a i5 bought one for world of warcraft playing on ultra settings most of the time when in some raid encounters it does lag so going down a level in graphics was required but very impressive for the price and definitely a recommend for a entry level gamer
Not a bad little system for the price
i feel like i watched this same video from you guys like 6 times now .. and i still watch lol good job
You know they messed up the airflow bad when the gt 730 is overheating, guess that’s what you get when you shove a thick acrylic sheet onto the only intake.
Adding bling-bling to a TURD only increases the problems when choking out air-flow! Already a under-preforming WORTHLESS system as it is...
about time you got sponcered by HP
I have my gaming PC, keyboard/mouse, and gaming monitor all in my cart. Just have to go to the bank.
bro pulled out a whole fcking sword LMAOOOO
Congrats at 500k subs

I have a 13 yr old son who wants a gaming pc and I’m not trying to spend thousands we don’t have it, so I very much appreciate these reviews
I really need a setup so thanks
Me: Buying a 2,000 dollar gaming pc
Me: a few minutes later after it got to my house and finding this video 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Toasty bros are just too underrated
i just got my first pc and i have to thank yall for telling me whats good for a budget pc.
Name?
Please do more of these
9:45 Good god , 94°C on the GPU 💥 how did it NOT fry itself already !?? 🤣🤣🤣
Is it worth purchasing though cause I really just want a pc for League of legends, Apex legends, that's it.
thats a monster of a knife
Its pcin' time
The GT 730 graphics card is a deal breaker. You can nab a GT 730 for $35 on ebay. The models with a GT 1030 are better, but they should be going GTX 1050 4GB or better for a "gaming" PC.
Would anyone know how games like swtor, stellaris, and warhammer 40k games would work? My current pc (not a gaming pc) as problems running these games in low settings
Try to upgrade the graphics card to a gtx 1660 super and upgrade the ram
Isn't there a vented side panel (that you've got the PC standing on), to intake air to the gpu? Did you guys try to lay the PC horizontal to see if the gpu temperatures got any better? I have the same GT 730 gpu by Colorful, and it doesn't get nearly that hot.
Bro that knife lol
im not the only one watching on a cheap computer
No bad for the price shipped to your door. Obviously not a super high-end amazing setup but on a big budget with a display and input devices what do you expect?
At this price for the OLD tech your getting it's not WORTH it at ANY price! Garbage!
@@johnszatkowski6898 If you were a struggling college kid who needed everything you wouldn't be saying. I wouldn't buy this but I can afford better stuff.
@@MobileDecay ;
True but after a VERY short time seeing how badly this preforms your then looking for a "real" setup and end up spending MORE money to replace this! I'd buy a laptop that you can take with you if I was a struggling college student in the 1st place. There are MANY laptops out there for just a few hundred $ more that will play WAY better than this setup with higher frame-rates and more modern hardware and 1080P+. I've seen laptops in the $750 range that will run circles around this ancient hardware. Why spend $500 to find out it's a turd and then turn around and spend MORE money for something that actually preforms? Skip the $500 and go right for the $750+ range to begin with and save yourself the CASH.
@@johnszatkowski6898 If you don't have the money you can't spend the money.
@@MobileDecay ;
You are correct! Something is better than NOTHING! As a struggling person this system will still stream, do MS Office and other tasks and will barley 'game'. It's better than no PC at all.
bro said "mousemad" lol
Really appreciate everything u guys do!
I feel they could have skipped the RGB everything and got a better gpu LOL
A better GPU and CPU! This setup is terrible! It's outdated as f#$k! I've seen MINI-PC's using Intel's built-in UHD or IRIS graphics or AMD's built-in Radeon 8 graphics preform better than this at 1080P at MED settings for the SAME price with something 'Newer' than Intel 6th GEN tech. Even AMD 5000 chips with built-in graphics preform better than this turd!
@@johnszatkowski6898 Yeah, I would agree, but this was just them exploring something for $500 on amazon and it was a complete setup. You can do much better than this for sure, so glad they spent their money to educate consumers.
@@PinkyTech ;
Your right the Toasty Bros do videos to help you or recommend something. They did not really speak highly of this setup as I did not either. For just a few hundred more you could get something better. This system would QUICKLY become a disappointment even for a child or young college student. If you were NEVER going to game it would stream and do MS Office type work all day. But their review was 'gaming' and even they stated several times the GPU was on the verge of puking it's own guts out!
The point that the gpu reach 100°
too funny I just bought one of these used(without the acrylic) with an I5 8500(Not T) and no GPU for 100 dollars.
Great formfactor, not bad desktop performance, has NVME slot, BUT the PSU is non upgradable and has no external GPU power ability. With the 8500 your better off without the gt730 and either go to the 1030 or stick with UHD 630 graphics. it's essentially the Dell Optiplex 3060. I may throw a rx 6400 in to see what it will do, but it's PCIE Gen 3
Don’t need a computer for anything other than casual sims and Roblox playing, maybe some terraria and Minecraft 😭 so I think this will be fine for me! Thanks for the review
Can you please tell me how to connect it to the wifi?
yoo the dart monkey chilling I love it 😍
Bro that's better than my $1800 laptop
im watching this on that exact setup 😂
Is it good the setup for gaming on games like mincraft?
I open boxes like that using a small hobby knife. But some like to use a sword.
You guys look kind.
Love the video
i got a setup fully, with headset leds (alot of leds) signs, moniter and pc keyboard and mouse, mouse pad all for around 170 dollars
Can this run the video game rust😂?
you should do a video how to insall msi afterburner
why cheap pcs are only avail in yt videos ?
Yay for Amazon buys 😎😅
Add like a gtx 1060 or 1050ti and perfect
i bought this setup to play command and conquer… you think i will have any issues?
Not rlly i have the same pc
400 for a gt 750 is just wild price i can find an rtx 1050 ti for under 120
Seller has different options on offer. For a version with gt 1030/ RX 550 you need to pay $30 more, another $30 to replace 20 inch with 22 .
worth it
what graphics card can you put in there to make it perform better
"the monitor works, its 20 inches so that's pretty good"
No, that's not pretty good lmao
Lmao
To think I've been playing Dota 2 without the upgrades and just turn out didn't explode yet 😂

I regret buying this
I have this but i cant set it up
I'm not able to set it up either, what was your issue?
pretty decent for the price... just swap out the GPU---surprised that it was not a 710...wait did you verify the Ram and VRam?
of course, the price went up on amazon🤣
This is NOT 'decent" at ANY price in 2022! It's a under-preforming stressed out POS! The GPU is ready to melt-down over the heat issues at LOW settings! Just on the verge of thermal shutdown is NOT 'decent' in any stretch of the imagination!
@@johnszatkowski6898 I'm imagining it as a gift for a child's first gaming PC...totally complete with all peripherals...you'd have a hard time getting all that for less...if your biggest complaint is the GPU then I can't argue with you there...
@@mattblatchley2061 ;
I get what your saying and am NOT dumping on the Toasty Bros. They reviewed this hardware for "gaming" and even they stated how under preforming it was! Yeah a full set-up with an inferior monitor, VERY cheap keyboard and mouse and OUTDATED hardware. I don't remember them ever testing the headset either (Please correct me if I'm wrong here). They stated it was a 'playable' E-sports experience at mostly LOW settings and was lagging as they mentioned. I feel even a child would VERY quickly become disappointed with this system once said child saw what someone else's computer can do at 1080P or higher with the speed and visual quality this setup simply cannot EVER provide! As I mentioned for a few hundred more $ you can get something better that WILL actually preform. In my view, WHY buy something at ANY price and find out it is an OUTDATED under preforming setup that you'll just replace in 6months or less? Where did you 'save" any money here going the CHEAP route?
I bit over kill with the knife
they way the pc looks reminds me of when people put weird rims and mufflers on cars like 10 year old hondas

could be donated to people all over . at 500 a box , anyone lacking a setup could get one .
I had bought the same one and Fortnite kept crashing
Absolute beast nice
Wow, be careful with that knife.
I wanna see you put a better graphics card in that pc!
I feel like some people buy these without looking at the specs, just hoping that it 'has a 3090'
Honestly I need the pc ngl
Question, would this be a great starter pc and then I can upgrade the GPU at a later point when I get the money and/or cpu also upgrade the Ram. I’m trying to find a good gaming setup and this looks perfect if I upgrade it at a later date when I get the money. Would that work or would it not?
No
Lol
Any optiplex system when a decent i3 or i5 and slap a 730 on it and you could add low profile gou later on!!!
Around 200 if you find a used optiplex and a decent graphics card
Yall did it finally lol
Over all do not remodify any Dell Optiplex office desktop PC to gaming PC just build one from scratch.
