Played it a few times. It isn't perfect but it's good for people for are new to building PC's by visualizing a general idea of it if they don't have the parts physically.
I agree I wish it had a bit more like the pcie locks and things like cross pattern on air coolers which could really help people not mess up in real life
@@ghfjdksks well i meant the motherboard clips on the pcie slot, its nice to have the case ones when applicable but the motherboard ones are more important imo
You can even overclock stuff and mess around in the bios. It's really deep actually. I would actually recommend this to people who want to try to build a PC but are too afraid to do so. One can definitely learn something from this.
Level 27 here. Bought it like a year ago in GoG. That startup sound.......haunts me in my dreams. One of the cooler aspects of this game is that sometimes the jobs you receive have a cool history behind :P
They update it with more stories Stuff like, the LARPer, the queen of a country, and the dude who just got his pc rekt by some thief who broke in. The IT Expansion that’s out is also pretty fun!!! Its a free update
So many tricks to learn. no need to individually unplug, add multiple jobs to cart to only pay shipping once. also you can go negative on cash to a certain point, and there are often hidden objectives in the emails that aren't always listed. You can change the peripherals on the desks and the is a esports expansion where you work for an esports team repairing and upgrading there pcs.
I started playing this game one evening and the next thing I knew it was 3am and I was playing for almost 5 hours straight... hooked me in instantly. I especially enjoy the "PC Repair Tycoon" style career mode and the fact that you can decorate your office and play whatever music you like from internet streaming channels inside the game, super cool.
btw some game tips: 1. you can go to minsu for up to 1000€ if u go more u pay 10€ each day. 2. Later u can buy Upgrades that make the gamy less anoying like Automatic USB Energy and Display Port Cable Connecting & Automaitc "Screw Screwing". 3. U dont have to plug Everything out when u're done if u pick the PC up everything gets Autometicly Disconected ( also your USB stick u won't lose it). Thats some Basics the rest u will learn in the Tutorial have fun! c:
Couple quip tips, when your done with the computer instead of unplugging it just stand and pick it up...you don't even have to shut it off lol the game doesn't take stuff like that into consideration, When buying stuff buy everything from all the jobs you take at one time just add them to the cart if you go check out another computer then go shopping your cart is saved so just keep adding till there's nothing to add anymore you pay shipping per shipment so dont make five order make one order of five things save money you need to or you will fail lol
I bought it on Steam and claim it for free on Epic. Yup i played a little bit i have only little over 400 hours in game, lol. You can order multiple things so you pay only 1 delivery fee, if you order mutiple times you pay mutiple fees, so you just waste money. You can go easely into -1000$, so if you go -300$ for GPU that isn't much. Task have time limit, you can check on calendar on your wall next to your PC. And Happy B day Greg.
My only gripe with this game is not being able to switch fan orientation, especially on the rads. When I mount the rad to the front of the case, it's always exaust which makes my OCD go through the roof, but other than that, it's an awesome game
I actually managed to somewhat plan out and Demo my Dad's last (not gaming) PC build with this. It didn't have the old i5 2500K but i could kinda sorta fudge something together to give him a visual impression of it before we ordered the new case and fans 'n stuff.
If you start a whole series on this I’m sure your viewers would love to watch. There is a bit of wonky stuff. The tutorial even lets you spin parts around to inspect, but it does some stuff wrong. You also have simplified BIOSes on the computers in the game. Pretty cool.
PCBS has a lot of interesting questlines. Including a rather mindfucky one. Shean and Morotoni are both made up low end brands for the game to use, rather than having some RL parts brand as the low quality option. Avoids pissing off brand fanboys, and the companies themselves. Anyway, a couple more levels in and you'll start getting specific requests on jobs. Use this brand of part over another, use this color cable, and so on. So you'll have to buy new cables when those start popping up, but after you unlock a new cable variant you have a unlimited supply of them.
Can we see you play more of this? I find it fascinating someone with your knowledge in PC and repair playing PC simulator and could watch hours of it! Thanks!
I bet you could make a lot of fun content through this game. Later on, you’ll get emails asking you to build an entire pc on a budget that can get a specific score or better on 3D mark. Even jobs that require you to figure out what the problem is with a pc. Really cool
I am an IT technician and this game was the reason I had become so good at knowing what to repair and where it was, definitely has built my PC knowledge up. Just wish you could actually code on it launching Linux on this thing would be crazy
I have been playing this game since it came out, left it for 18 months but came back to it in lockdown, its an entertaining game and they added the IT expansion which is fun. You can make the game harder by selecting to not to show all needs and you have to work them out yourself. In the bios you can overclock ram, cpu and there are two downloads to stress test and oc gpu. Good luck.
0:29 That itch died out years ago working in a computer store. I've filled a lifetime quota of building thousands of computers. I still like building mine, but no more itches lmao.
Its a pretty fun game, the tasks get more involved as you get on. So you have to do some deep dive trouble shooting. Also there are some interesting side stories buried in the emails
I love this game. When I built my pc in March it was the first time I’d ever messed with PCs. Built a middle to high end gaming pc. Then found this game. Fun because you can build whatever you want. No gpu shortage on here. Fun game
I really enjoyed it honestly. Has enough to keep an experienced builder interested but not too much a new person can't understand it eventually. My only disappointment is not having a mode for building only on the motherboard before putting it into the case. Later in the game when you build for customer after customer it would be nice having ready MB, CPU, RAM combos which can easily be placed into a case. This is the most realistic thing I'd love added and would make me play again.
I'm up to $600K in career mode and iM already beyond the point where the business is 100% mine. It gets tedious because the story jobs stop after that and you just get build, diag/fix, and upgrade jobs, averaging 2-3 a day. But the IT expansion pack just dropped yesterday, which makes you an independent IT contractor at a fictional startup company. Plenty of easy story jobs to regain my interest, plus I have all my experience from playing career mode to draw from when doing the IT jobs. Edit to add: I am not an IT guy in real life. Just an amateur PC builder who loves being able to do it virtually for free with hardware prices the way they are these days. I even have a virtual version of my actual PC stored on free build mode so I can swap out different components virtually and see what they do to the 3DMark score in the game.
How long have you played? Are you going for the $1M in bank achievement? Did you get Hoarder(every part in inventory) or Sitting on a fortune($200K used part value in inventory)?
@@jtenorj I have not achieved any of those things yet. In fact, my cash balance in career mode is barely more than what I reported in my original comment, because I've been doing almost exclusively IT expansion pack jobs. But since I've fully cracked that nut and now those jobs have the same level of tedium as Career mode jobs, I'm bouncing back and forth between the two modes. I haven't even touched the Competition mode because I didn't feel like paying for it at the time. But I'm also not playing the game every day anymore. At best I play 2-3 times a week.
Make sure to always turn off the lights when you end the day , will save you loads on the electricity bill. Tasks are a litle bit basic at the start but will get way more advanced when you start leveling up with hidden tasks , full pc builds , overclocking and custom watercooling.
Truth. Saw another comment where someone had a $480 electric bill one month because they forgot to turn stuff off. I usually remember and my last bill was like $180($300 less).
Yeah, been in IT for over 15 years and I really enjoy this game too.. granted it's not perfect, but it's really close.. also check out the IT Expansion when you get a chance..
Took ya long enough! To be fair even my CompTIA instructor had never tried it. I gave him a copy to play with and he uses it as a teaching aid now. (It still has its issues though, lol)
i had this game for a long time from steam, one of the few games i paid full price for and honestly 20$ feels totally worth it for this game if you're into PCs. especially now that they released the new IT expansion for free. for anyone who just loves building PCs and having fun there's so much to do. career mode lets you have a business and you do jobs for people, from the simple ones you just did in this video to full blown custom builds, upgrades and even custom loop water cooling! it's even beginner friendly with the "how to build a pc" tutorial which explains stuff pretty well, and it does have a sandbox mode called "free build" where you can just build anything you want you have all parts at your disposal. gotta love the extra stuff too like the workshops from different companies and the other modes that put you in different scenarios.
Yeah, bought this game on sale a while ago because I was planning my first rl pc build, it really helped me get the proper routine of installing and building stuff down. x)
I played this to max lvl 34/35 (no lv 35 lol) There was/is some collision bugs like the AIO piping can collide especially with wack PC case. So it's recommended to save before applying for job here, do the job normally, finish it, and save once all jobs are complete. This doesn't include the "build me a pc" job, as it can be done before saving because more room for error.
I have been hooked on this game for about a month now. It gets really detailed. Doing dual GPUs and hitting benchmarks and changing cables without going over budget.
I love this game! I was hoping that you could mess up and not complete a case too, it would be nice if you could be a sloppy PC builder, the only thing you can really get away with is forgetting thermal paste and overheat by overclocking customers PC's and not connecting fans, I tried my best to sabotage customers PC's. :)
I was very pleased to find out this game was free, as I was fan of it before. It's a wonderful game that allows me to nerd out over many many different things regarding computers.
I've found it to be quite addictive. It definitely is European-based. I also figured out to order as much as possible from the store at once because there is only one shipping charge.
74 year old woman, and love PCBII, I learned enough to try to build an actual rig. Looks like you Played PCB (I) before PCBII released. Just beware that some of their fixes can be more frustrating than the pesky (PIA) ones on your "Fix or Flop" series. I personally love PCBII as an alternate to WOW, which is my "go to" game.
@@GregSalazar you are actually allowed to go to up to $-1000 in this game, after you do, you will get an email from a bank telling you that they "got the backs of small businesses" or something like that, can't remember the exact words. Also, happy birthday!
@@GregSalazar yeah, Forsaken is right. This game will be a breeze for you. Sometimes you have to read between the lines on some tickets because you'll get some hidden objectives. Yeah, the amount people pay for simple tasks is appalling at times. The IT Scenario is interesting because you might get some person who will bring their computer in for an upgrade with a 3080 and only using 8gb of RAM (1x Gskill Trident Z RGB). They wanted some no name parts in their system because of some contest. So I'm like, "Okay, this DHL thing only has RAM and GPUs. Low budget, so let's at least up them to 16gb. This loser wants to throw away some Trident Z for generic RAM that has barely a heat spreader... Okay... I'll get two." I pocket the Trident Z stick and they're upset that I went over budget. The request defied all logic. Yeah, got a 1 rating, but I upgraded my rig with that used RAM. You get spoils like that at times.
I probably wouldn't watch something like this in the future, but because I was into this when it first came out.... I had to watch this particular one. I would be curious of a heavier dive into the game and more thoughts so I can relate with my own experience. Anyways... You are still awesome and despite not being "pro" youtuber like some, You always manage to entertain and show your human side. You rock.
There is Water cooling in it and you can eventually repair the broken parts you have then sell them in a similar if not simplified way to real repairs.
I played a lot during the pandemic lockdown (lvl 20-ish, haven't played in a while). I enjoyed every aspect of it except for the startup sound! Some job emails are really funny. Happy b-day Greg!
Hey Greg! I dont know if anyone else has suggested this, but if your digging this game (which it looks like you are currently), you should also really check out Car Mechanic Simulator 2018! Its certainly not perfect and it takes a while to level up and unlock most parts of the shop, but its just as awesome as this game! I love them both!
over time it gets a lot more in-depth, like you have to actually diagnose a problem, i.e. the pc is not booting, you also have to hit benchmark scores for your clients and they ask for specs to match a games performance.
I picked it up fairly cheap on Steam's summer sale and had a blast with it. Got to the point of unlocking 9th gen Intel CPUS and RTX cards, but haven't played it in a little while now. Definitely recommend picking up the fast screws, and then later the auto screwing and cabling once you get enough cash on hand.
This game is really really fun. I have several hours logged on this game in the short time I've had it lol. It's definitely a pretty cool learning tool in a way because I'd love to be able to do this kinda stuff for real just as you do as well man. Also love your videos man!!
I started it when it was free on Epic too. I spent 40 hours on it the first week :D So it was basically a work week or repairing PC :D I really enjoyed it. I need to start it up again. It gets more and more challenging, to the point you are the one doing the diagnostics on the PC, troubleshooting stuff. I really recommend it.
If want to be an enthusiast, then play that game. It's really good. I have so many games in my library but I only play that game. So relaxing and entertaining.
I learned about this game when jayz two cents did a playthrough. It scales up in difficulty pretty fast and they are pretty strict when it asks for parts you have to install specifically what it requires.
Can't believe I've never played this before! Genuinely fun pastime. I turn 27 today, so I think I'll relax a bit and play PCBS a bit more! :-D
HAPPY BDAY!
Happy birthday 🎉🎊
Happy birthday❤
HBD, wish you all the best.
You're one of my fav.
Happy Birthday 🎂
10:18 fun detail: if you turn off the lights when you leave the office for the night, your utility bill for the month is lower!
Yes , if figured that out when my first electricity bill was 480$
Now THAT is some detail! 🤣
Also shutdown the office pc to save costs too
also group your purchases to save on shipping
@@ufsteropolstero6014 Unless there's some urgent 1-day orders, or I messed up the purchase, I usually buy parts every 2 days.

I actually used it to plan my dream build I'm saving up for rn
Also they just announced a free IT expansion available now
yea , plus the in-game benchmark programs. if greg keeps playing this will be fun to watch!

@@GaborYT and bold of them to assume I have money to buy the game

The halloween pumpkin and christmas tree besides your personal pc in the game.. if you click them. you change decoration around your work office.
@Greg Salazar you should do more videos of this game and have a playlist. This is interesting to watch!
Make sure.you turn off lights at the end of the day and the PC to make your electricity bills cheaper when they come through
My only gripe with this game is not being able to switch fan orientation, especially on the rads. When I mount the rad to the front of the case, it's always exaust which makes my OCD go through the roof, but other than that, it's an awesome game
Pc building simulator is sooo well made! I always wanted this game to design my rig.

@Greg Salazar thanks to you I was able to build my first PC last weekend. Also shout out to Discord Community for the help..
I spend 15+ hour in this game and prob more that the it expansion just come out
Fun fact, on the office computer in the sim, you can set the music player to your own real music library… the wallpaper also matches your pc.
Shoutout from the Philippines! Really love your vids, sir Greg :)
I probably wouldn't watch something like this in the future, but because I was into this when it first came out.... I had to watch this particular one. I would be curious of a heavier dive into the game and more thoughts so I can relate with my own experience. Anyways... You are still awesome and despite not being "pro" youtuber like some, You always manage to entertain and show your human side. You rock.
There is Water cooling in it and you can eventually repair the broken parts you have then sell them in a similar if not simplified way to real repairs.
So happy to see you play this lol I've been playing for a while now and wondered when one of the channels like yours would pick up on it :)
I played a lot during the pandemic lockdown (lvl 20-ish, haven't played in a while). I enjoyed every aspect of it except for the startup sound! Some job emails are really funny. Happy b-day Greg!
Hey Greg! I dont know if anyone else has suggested this, but if your digging this game (which it looks like you are currently), you should also really check out Car Mechanic Simulator 2018! Its certainly not perfect and it takes a while to level up and unlock most parts of the shop, but its just as awesome as this game! I love them both!
i got it off epic games and i still havent downloaded and its just sitting there.... menacingly.
Do it! You won't regret it :-D
I’m glad you played this game. I got addicted to it when I first installed it. Accidentally went broke but all in all fun game
Played this game for 143 hours now. Its really fun, every lvl you get new parts to build with.
They made it too much of a grind.I’m like level 21 and only just got 1080 ti cards with 90 hours of play.
Your cable management is always top tier.
PC Builder very fun game, from someone who build there own pc and loves play games, i loved playing this game. you should play more on your channel.
you can go into negative budget when playing this game, I'm well into it, been playing it for over 1 year now.
I am hooked on this game personally. Quality video as always :)
over time it gets a lot more in-depth, like you have to actually diagnose a problem, i.e. the pc is not booting, you also have to hit benchmark scores for your clients and they ask for specs to match a games performance.
you should play the sandbox mode its really fun!
I’ve been subbed to you for a few months and I watch you’re tech videos every now and then but this one I didn’t hesitate to check out🤷🏾♂️
I picked it up fairly cheap on Steam's summer sale and had a blast with it. Got to the point of unlocking 9th gen Intel CPUS and RTX cards, but haven't played it in a little while now.
Definitely recommend picking up the fast screws, and then later the auto screwing and cabling once you get enough cash on hand.
Best startup and shutdown tone ever! Microsoft take note for future versions of Windows!
This game is really really fun. I have several hours logged on this game in the short time I've had it lol. It's definitely a pretty cool learning tool in a way because I'd love to be able to do this kinda stuff for real just as you do as well man. Also love your videos man!!
I started it when it was free on Epic too. I spent 40 hours on it the first week :D So it was basically a work week or repairing PC :D I really enjoyed it. I need to start it up again. It gets more and more challenging, to the point you are the one doing the diagnostics on the PC, troubleshooting stuff. I really recommend it.
Same I love this game. Epic games gives a Away some pretty cool games sometimes
Great video! Thanks for keeping it clean!
If want to be an enthusiast, then play that game. It's really good. I have so many games in my library but I only play that game. So relaxing and entertaining.
Love your videos, keep it up man. Also Happy Birthday!! Love from Australia, Sydney!
I appreciate it!
This would be a really good series!
I bought PC Building Simulator on PS4. I wonder if I'm the only one? It's lovely and relaxing.
I learned about this game when jayz two cents did a playthrough. It scales up in difficulty pretty fast and they are pretty strict when it asks for parts you have to install specifically what it requires.
love all your videos, please make more of this! i want to see more of this!!
It's like surgeon simulator!...but better, and the innards don't bleed.
This is super cool! I'll definitely start playing this
Happy birthday by the way, love all your content
You can even build entire PCs, benchmark them, do whacky combinations, and more. I really need to buy this and play it.
i could watch you play this game all day and night
