00:00:00
remember this is not on me this is on
00:00:02
the twitch chat and the only starting
00:00:04
point that i gave them was that i wanted
00:00:05
to build some budget gaming pcs around
00:00:08
these xfx red and black rx 460s that i
00:00:11
panic bought at the beginning of the gpu
00:00:13
shortage now you may instantly notice
00:00:15
that those gpus aren't even in our final
00:00:16
build here and that's because not one
00:00:18
but both of these xfx rx 460s that i got
00:00:21
off all the express were actually broken
00:00:23
the whole time and we didn't even know
00:00:25
it but thankfully i also panicked bought
00:00:27
this all black sapphire rx 460 and this
00:00:29
one works perfectly fine to go along
00:00:31
with that 460 during the live stream we
00:00:33
actually couldn't find too many budget
00:00:35
ryzen deals so we ended up settling on
00:00:37
this ryzen 5 1400 from aliexpress for 77
00:00:40
now 77 for that cpu specifically isn't
00:00:43
anything to write home about but
00:00:44
remember by buying a cheap ryzen cpu
00:00:47
like that it allows us to buy a super
00:00:49
cheap b450 or any am4 motherboard and we
00:00:52
can also use these stock ryzen cpu
00:00:54
coolers and then paint them and that's
00:00:56
exactly what we did i've explained this
00:00:58
so many times already but painting these
00:01:00
just looks so good and i highly
00:01:02
recommend that you do it for ultra
00:01:03
budget builds like this now if you want
00:01:05
to be a bit of a baller you could use
00:01:06
something like this deepcool ak620 and
00:01:09
it's actually the sponsor of today's
00:01:10
video coming in at an msrp of 69.99 this
00:01:14
is deepcool's latest crack at a true
00:01:16
high performance air cooler and it's
00:01:17
packing a ton of value the ak-620 can
00:01:20
provide up to 260 watts of heat
00:01:22
dissipation it's super quiet yet
00:01:24
remaining powerful and that sleek modern
00:01:26
design is something you know people like
00:01:28
me appreciate the two included pwm fans
00:01:30
not only look clean but can also perform
00:01:32
the heatsink comes packed with six heat
00:01:34
pipes and the three year warranty
00:01:36
ensures that you can trust it for years
00:01:37
to come check out the deepcool ak620 for
00:01:40
yourself by visiting that first link
00:01:41
down in the description moving on to the
00:01:43
motherboard i already had this asrock
00:01:44
b450 pro 4 which i paid just 41 for off
00:01:48
amazon warehouse and it's perfect for a
00:01:50
budget build like this our cpu
00:01:51
motherboard combo costs just 118 dollars
00:01:54
and that's obviously really tough to
00:01:56
beat for any modern budget build right
00:01:57
now so we're off to a great start the
00:01:59
good value definitely continues into the
00:02:01
ram well kind of this is a team group 3
00:02:04
000 megahertz super sexy red and black
00:02:06
kit that i'm going to guess i only paid
00:02:08
10 for hopefully you've seen me explain
00:02:10
this before but about a month ago i paid
00:02:12
300 for a crazy box of parts from
00:02:14
somebody and it included things like an
00:02:16
rx 570 rx 560 ryzen 7 3700x a 2400g two
00:02:22
motherboards two sets of ram a power
00:02:24
supply and even more based off of
00:02:26
everything i got in that box i'm just
00:02:28
gonna guess that i only paid about ten
00:02:30
dollars for this ram kit but honestly
00:02:32
because of how good the value was on
00:02:33
everything else i probably paid even
00:02:35
cheaper than that the one major problem
00:02:37
with this ram kit however is that it's
00:02:39
only a two by four gigabyte kit and not
00:02:41
two by eight gigabyte and nobody freaked
00:02:43
out on this one but this is definitely
00:02:44
the first time that i've only put eight
00:02:46
gigabytes of ram into a system for
00:02:47
probably two to three years now i
00:02:49
obviously don't recommend anybody
00:02:51
purposely build a system with just eight
00:02:53
gigabytes of ram definitely try to go up
00:02:55
to 16 but since i couldn't find this
00:02:57
same exact kit to add two more sticks to
00:03:00
it i thought this would just be a
00:03:02
perfect budget build to actually get rid
00:03:04
of these ram kits so we just left it at
00:03:06
8. it'll be fine for today but if you
00:03:08
are trying to copy this as a build guide
00:03:10
then definitely try to go with 16
00:03:11
gigabytes one thing to note however is
00:03:13
that we may not actually even see a huge
00:03:15
bottleneck here the ryzen 5 1400 and rx
00:03:18
460 combo isn't going to be getting
00:03:20
super high frame rates or game on super
00:03:22
high settings or anything so the 8
00:03:24
gigabytes of ram may not actually even
00:03:26
be a big issue but we'll find out soon
00:03:28
during the benchmarking run before that
00:03:29
though we got to continue through this
00:03:30
parts list and next up we have this
00:03:32
toshiba 512 gigabyte nvme drive that was
00:03:35
pulled out of the dell xps laptop and
00:03:37
actually sniped this during the live
00:03:38
stream for just 38 bucks this was one of
00:03:40
those times where if you see the deal
00:03:42
you just got to pull the trigger right
00:03:43
away and for an ultra budget build like
00:03:44
this it's a pretty solid choice same
00:03:46
thing with the case honestly this here
00:03:48
is the diy pc argb q8-bk and i've been
00:03:51
getting a ton of requests from members
00:03:53
of our discord community to check this
00:03:54
thing out you can go to
00:03:56
zaxtech.com by the way to join us this
00:03:58
qa bk has been consistently going on
00:04:00
sale down to 45 dollars and because it's
00:04:02
micro atx has a psu cutout for some
00:04:05
vinyl action it's all black and even has
00:04:07
some rgbs up here at the front and in
00:04:08
the back with the single fan this is
00:04:10
definitely packing some serious value to
00:04:12
be honest i actually really like the way
00:04:13
this looks too i'm not a fan of how that
00:04:15
front panel looks when it's showing rgb
00:04:17
puke colors like on the website but when
00:04:18
you set it to just a solid color like
00:04:20
white in this instance or even red for a
00:04:22
build like this it actually looks pretty
00:04:24
clean and you don't have to add any more
00:04:26
rgbs to the entire build in my opinion
00:04:28
moving on we get to the power supply and
00:04:29
this is just an evga 450 bt which is
00:04:32
obviously not a great power supply
00:04:34
choice but since i got it in that 300
00:04:36
box of parts it was honestly kind of
00:04:38
free and this system just allows me to
00:04:40
honestly get rid of it after that we
00:04:42
have some aesthetic accessories which
00:04:44
you know i always gotta throw into the
00:04:45
mix first up we have these fun tin cable
00:04:47
extensions i always recommend going with
00:04:49
asia horse but i do like to experiment
00:04:51
with other cables and these were a tad
00:04:52
bit cheaper at the time of buying and
00:04:54
they do look pretty solid in my opinion
00:04:56
and finally we also decided to add one
00:04:57
of those black m.2 heatsinks just to
00:04:59
hide the ugly pcb color of the ssd and
00:05:02
this way it looks much cleaner inside
00:05:04
all in all here's what the final parts
00:05:05
this is looking like and as you can see
00:05:06
the twitch chat did pretty good here we
00:05:08
ended up paying just 326 for everything
00:05:11
inside the build including the aesthetic
00:05:13
only parts and that's honestly not too
00:05:15
shabby for the current state of the
00:05:17
market inflation and dare i say this pc
00:05:20
actually looks pretty solid even if it
00:05:21
was a much more expensive build now
00:05:23
before getting into the benchmarks it's
00:05:24
important that we tame our expectations
00:05:26
as a 300 build only rocking a first
00:05:28
generation ryzen chip 8 gigabytes of ram
00:05:31
and an rx 460 we are not going to be
00:05:33
getting crazy good results here make
00:05:35
sure you keep an eye on the upper left
00:05:36
hand corner to see the balance of
00:05:38
utilization across the parts and also to
00:05:40
monitor the temperatures now if you are
00:05:42
interested in pushing some slightly
00:05:44
higher fps numbers than what we're about
00:05:45
to see to celebrate myself joining the
00:05:47
jawa team which hopefully you've seen
00:05:49
the announcement for already i'm gonna
00:05:50
be working in as an advisor level
00:05:52
position and also doing some direct
00:05:54
contracting work for them and to
00:05:55
celebrate they're giving away an evga
00:05:57
rtx 3070 ti and it's super easy to enter
00:06:01
head on down in the description for that
00:06:02
giveaway entry link and good luck to
00:06:04
everyone trying to win the 30-70 ti also
00:06:06
instead of me talking and blabbing
00:06:08
through the benchmarking run today we're
00:06:10
just gonna put on a casual playlist of
00:06:12
music and watch sam snipe some good
00:06:14
headshots and i'll see you guys after
00:06:16
this quick benchmarking run let me get
00:06:17
it down one time for anybody out there
00:06:20
following their dreams anybody in the
00:06:21
city looking through jobs so they can
00:06:22
get you bigger better things you can't
00:06:24
see that i was that i put in every day
00:06:26
at night go to every trick or write go
00:06:27
to every video just to hit them with the
00:06:28
fade when i stick it to the people that
00:06:30
i couldn't
00:06:32
make it i kept
00:06:42
you can't hold me down
00:06:46
[Music]
00:06:56
and then real quickly sam did keep an
00:06:58
eye on the cpu and gpu temperatures and
00:06:59
those results are on the screen now
00:07:01
obviously this isn't an elaborate
00:07:02
cooling setup or anything but those
00:07:04
temperatures are definitely decent
00:07:05
enough to not be worried about them and
00:07:07
also if you are interested in spending a
00:07:09
few more dollars and getting an honestly
00:07:10
much better pc than this then feel free
00:07:12
to click the video that's on the screen
00:07:14
now and don't forget to enter that
00:07:15
giveaway for the rtx 3070 ti as well
