@@crism1912 No, def not. But even if I really was “budgeting” to an extreme to save money.. you don’t need 1.5k for a good pc. Unless maybe your some rich guy going overkill. Not speaking for myself, but many people in the world don’t have that type of money🤦🏽♂️
I think comparing a more midrange rig with a 4080 evokes more compelling questions for me personally. Upper tier cards make very little sense for 90+% of consumers but make up a comparatively huge part of the market.
If you do some price vs performance comparisons, those "high end" gaming pcs tend to perform 2 to 3x better than a "mid tier" gaming pc, but for about 5-10x the cost. It really doesn't make sense to spend more than 800-1200 on a new pc that is considered "mid tier" but will perform at or above 100fps for most major titles and for 1/10th of the cost. Unless you are in a profession that requires certain technologies, spending more than 1-2k on a gaming PC (at least for me) feels like complete overkill.
Yes! This is a good point that I tried to fit into this video but it was outside its immediate scope. Atari touched on it in their reply already, but value (perf per dollar) wasn't discussed because it's meaty topic and includes what you mentioned.

I tend to disagree with your statement that upper tier cards make up a huge part of the market. steam hardware survey tends to disagree as well. right now (July stats) 1650 non Ti is the top used gpu, followed by 3060 and 1060. the first 40 series gpu is the 4060 laptop version placed 31st and 4080 is trailing behind by it 27 places as well. so "comparatively speaking" it's placed where it should be. I would even go as far to say that most of the appearances of 40 series cards in steam survey comes from people benchmarking them. 0.39% doesn't ring as a lot in my ears honestly.
I want to thank you Oz for making PC building/gaming so chill and welcoming. It can really seem daunting and some people are super gatekeep-y about building PCs. You gave me the confidence to build my own using your “$500 build” from late last year. I love my PC and I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel. Keep up the great content
I'm still rocking a GTX 1080 Founders Edition and I'm going to wait for the 5000 series in order to upgrade. Love your videos! Great visual style, fantastic format.
@@OzTalksHW - OH! I'm totally up an all-used-parts-special PC I'm just about to post for sale and it would meet the price cutoff. Plus, with an 8700K and 2070 Super it would whoop on any new-parts $400 build.
the best part about starting PC gaming at a reasonably low budget is that you get to take your time reaching the performance you want. i started PC gaming with an i3-6100 on an H110 with a GTX 1050 and a couple hard drives i scavenged from my dad's old external hard drives with a single stick of DDR4, to a 5800X3D, RTX 3080, 32GB of DDR4, and way too much storage space in NVME SSDs. Such a satisfying experience to see how far your build can go
i built a pc with a Corsair 4000D case, R7 5700G on a MSI B550 Moba, 16GB DDR4, 3060TI, way too much storage space, 6TB... 2TB SSD, 2TB m.2, 2TB HDD, (accidently put windows on the HDD my brother gave me for XMas...) This is coming from a Prebuilt with a R5 3600, 16GB DDR3, 1050, that i upgraded with a 1660S, 2TB HDD that didnt cut it anymore. (in 2021 or so)
I think that was the best comparison yet. Everyone focus on the data and technical aspects. It is a bit confusing. You just make a simple point and makes you think. We all can’t go out and buy the next new thing based on advertising buzz words. Keep up the good content. It’s awesome.
Love your content!! So down to earth & realistic. Truth is you can have a great gaming experience and not have to take out a second mortgage to do so!!!
Wow! this video puts today's market into prospective my friend. It has opened my eyes to certain aspects that are easy to lose track of... Muchly! enjoyed all content indeed :-). Cheers - Jass.
I saw some video some youtuber posted it was like over 1000$ budget build, I was like what? 1000$ is a budget build? Man a very high end pc was about that price not so long ago, I did post a comment there and people attacked me for it, like ok I am sorry I don't have half a million dollars or more in my bank account.
no no you are completely accurate, once a full pc would cost a £1000 total for a real decent build. Maybe not top top of the line MB etc, but pretty much good stuff regardless. Now the top mb is like $700-1200 ..... insane
0:05 i don't think the script is messed up. The card is definitely entry-level ( the price is not ) when put in current " next gen " games, it's mid-range for games of about 3-4 years ago
Talk about Q.E.D! You proved the point completely. Most other channels give such bad advice on how to get into PC gaming, and too many people end up spending way too much. Will spending more money get you a better PC? Sure, but the returns are EXTREMELY diminishing. Your build here is hella fun. That extra money can go into buying some great games and having great experiences, alone and with friends.
Your videos are awesome as always! I just want to let you know that you help other people with your creativity to build PCs for older generation and not only for gaming. There are a lot of people who doesn't play games but need a PC for MS Office, TH-cam and movies. Your deep knowledge of the market helps them tremendously, thank you very much!
I liked your video, you covered everything that was important to cover with your hipothesis and your experiment. And the RX 580 was the best choice because the A520 has PCIe 3.0, from a budget standpoint it makes sense because the gpu is also PCIe 3.0
Thank you OZ for making this build. I am contemplating doing my own budget build but the lowest I have seen from other TH-camrs is $600 to $700. I guess if you are a big TH-cam it is easy to call a 4060 a budget or entry level GPU.
Neat! Oz is back! I'm cheap enough and broke enough that a budget PC for me is buying a $200 i7 4th gen at a pawn shop, then adding a 4G GTX 970 someone kindly donated to me. Sadly, since it was a Dell Optiplex, I needed a power supply and an adapter to go along with it. Curses!
This video changed my whole perspective on the build I JUST purchased and have yet to build… might return a few things now that I’ve considered the overkill
I recently challenged myself to attempt to build an all or as much as new system upgrade from i5 4690/GTX970. I was hoping that along with some help from MicroCenter on the CPU mobo combo they have to also squeeze in something like a 6600. I did not 'bide time' to do the build, it was time sensitive, and the best I could do was 3600 on an A520 motherboard, 16GB RAM, new M.2 NVME, power supply, case, and a nice wireless Bluetooth card for just at $350. The choices which would have included a new GPU stripped too much functionality and upgradability so I opted for using the 970. IMO a $400 new system without long term shopping isn't possible in this market on even lower end quality parts. That line lies far closer to $500.
Huge like and sub bro, concise, to the point, intelligent, but friendly. Kept my attention the entire time. I think I’ll check out some of your other builds/videos too! Thanks bro
This is a really good fricking video! With an idea, a valid point, that can be proof, really the industry needs to know that their prices are wrong, and they don't make any practical and objective sense
I know why every videos take like couple of months. Cause you need, good deals = some patience. Mega W. also the motherboard you can have picked asus prime b450-a-ii for same price
good to see using these high end parts can still land partially budget pcs. i put this card in my parts picker list just the night before. excited to see how it performs here as a part of my research
I'm planning on building an budget pc with Gigabyte 3060 8gb OC, Intel i3-13100f, ASRock B660M Pro RS, 16gb 3200 CL16 Corsair vengeance, 1tb crucial p3 plus m.2 ssd, cooler master lite 240, Deepcool PF550 and all inside Lian Li LANCOOL 205M Mesh, what do you all think? This all should turn out at around 750Euros in Latvia, idk how much it can cost in other countries.
Great video. I was horrified to see that people were recommending i3's and 3050's for over *700* dollars. We need more people like you to get us out of this acceptance of ludicrous PC pricing in this decade!
Should show the most important part of the build. Where the power and fan connectors plug into. Friendly called me up for help because he saw this video.
For those in Canada this PC with the RX 6600 is about $750 before taxes and shipping. Making it cheaper then some 4060 ti's but more expensive then others
That's a good take, bro. Like it's not a literal bad product, it's just seems like it almost doubles the price of the rest of the components in a pc most people would put it in and that is a shame.
Thanks! It's a weird product because it actually presents a good value in the current market at the $400 MSRP - if we're just looking at straight performance per dollar...but we in reality the market is just now correcting. Good tech, bad price
got a 6600XT a year or 2 ago and i gotta say i have never regret my purchase or thought to myself that a different card would've been better at the time
You definitely know how to maximize your spending, lol. I think I would have gone with a used B450 motherboard and used ryzen 5 5600. The rest I would have kept the same
@@riven4121 dudoy, but no, people are acting like the price increase is marginal. the 5500 cost 90 dollars, the 5600 costs *145.* That's up an entire tier dude.
Be careful with that psu, ltt did a thing about it. If it overloads it prevents system loss but then doesn't work again. Might be worth spending a touch more on that.
Honestly we complain a lot about the current state of pc hardware (rightfully so) however considering where we were a few years ago its a wonderful time to build a pc
This list was helpful for me. I am taking my 15 year old (Est.) family desktop that we have had ever since I can remember (I'm nearly 20 now) and am going to put modern parts in it. Problem is... I'll only be able to put a 90mm intake fan in it because it's so old (an OEM HP Desktop). I set my budget between $400-$500 and really, as close to $400 as I can get it. I think I'm going to take your recommendations on Storage and Motherboard, and Im gonna get an appropriate power efficient cpu/gpu from ebay. + a Thermaltake GF1 650w. Best rated PSU for the best price. I'll be able to fit a 3600XT and a 5700XT (used) for $420 total (nice), all together, with the 90mm Noctua fan. I'm gonna also wait until Black Friday to see if any new components go on sale, and then wait until Ebay dies down after the holidays to buy (I assume people will be buying a bunch of parts during Christmas? Or maybe even getting rid of them and I can find a good deal? Idk.)
I've bought my rx6600 brand new in the crypto boom in 2022 march and it cost me 650$ here in europe. It was the best performance for budget card and is still good for me ever since even on 1440p 144hz.
This is a very helpful video. I'm looking to do some upgrades, but I'm on disability, so not a lot of money to spend (and even then, it will have to go on a credit card because I never have a couple hundred dollars to spare and no real way to save, so as long as it just goes onto an already existing bill, then it's fine..well, the best I can do anyway) and figuring out what to get to replace my 1650 Super (struggles in quite a few games unless I run fairly low settings due to the VRAM) has been pretty rough. I never really even thought about a card like this tbh because I was too stuck on looking at like last gen or current, and I think we all know how the prices of current gen are going...I just need to figure out what will work for what I need it to do because I need to keep my computer up and running due to the fact that I use it for some side gigs to be able to afford groceries.
Hey for what it's worth the R5 4500 + RX 6600 combo is less than a 16GB 4060 Ti :) Also as someone who already has a R5 5600 @ 4.8Ghz all-core + 3060 Ti @ 2.2Ghz core clock I was completely uninterested in anything under the 4070 with Ada Lovelace cards. If anything, upper-high end RDNA 2 cards are having some crazy good deals right now. $399 for a RX 6800, $449 for a 6800 XT, and just under $600 for a 6950 XT. All incredibly powerful cards with 16GB of VRAM that not even fake fra--I mean "frame gen" enabled on the 4060 Ti can compensate for
i sold my 3060ti add some cash and got new rx6800, fps gain is quite big up to 40% in some games..I lost dlss but i dont need it with 240hz 1080p screen, RT is about the same but i dont use that either..
This is nice to see i still remember the horror thay began when the 1080 dropped and the market went to crap. Its been years and finally its stabilized. Only took 3 generations of GPUs to come out...
Just finally made the upgrade from Kabylake i5 to a "new" platform, even AM4 is actually dead. Was thinking about getting the 12400F at first, but in the end AM4 and the 5600X just are a way better fit for me for multiple reasons. Even I´ve ended up spending the same as on Intel, I´ve got so much better parts (B550 Gaming Plus, Kingston Fury Renegade, Deepcool dual-tower aRGB cooler black edition) and especially the mobo connectivity is way ahead of both 1700 and AM5, well to me. Gaming performance is about the same but more importantly, AMD is better at something obviously most pc users and tech tubers don´t seem to realize how important it actually is and how often everyone is relying on that performance without realizing, talking compression/ decompression where letter is the one what matters. Almost every single bit of software nowadays contains compressed archives to save space/ download bandwidth, so the lager Cache for better compression performance sure is welcomend.

Great video. I was horrified to see that people were recommending i3's and 3050's for over *700* dollars. We need more people like you to get us out of this acceptance of ludicrous PC pricing in this decade!
1:03 what is that PC case in the back?
I really like those orange fans in it, looks baller
Now thats some retrospect right there😍😍
this video helped to stop my anxiety of upgrading my pc, thanks
i love ur content
Now with used parts?
Should show the most important part of the build. Where the power and fan connectors plug into. Friendly called me up for help because he saw this video.
Gotta respect the Ozzie hustle 👍
Building budget to midrange PC is much fun tbh especially looking for the best deal in used market
actually that 410$ PC is Bang for buck
My first build was in a really cheap case then I saw the thermaltake versa h18 case and bought 1. Such an easy case to build in. I love it.
For those in Canada this PC with the RX 6600 is about $750 before taxes and shipping. Making it cheaper then some 4060 ti's but more expensive then others
Dude…hard to argue with that logic and evidence. Big agree on the phrase “entry-level“ losing its meaning. Great video.
funny thing is ive built a $400 pc on amazon and it was using a 5500 xt and ryzen 5 4500 (this was months ago)
That's a good take, bro. Like it's not a literal bad product, it's just seems like it almost doubles the price of the rest of the components in a pc most people would put it in and that is a shame.
Thanks! It's a weird product because it actually presents a good value in the current market at the $400 MSRP - if we're just looking at straight performance per dollar...but we in reality the market is just now correcting. Good tech, bad price
got a 6600XT a year or 2 ago and i gotta say i have never regret my purchase or thought to myself that a different card would've been better at the time
great video oz, btw memory usually just refers to ram, not storage
You just changed my whole view on a 4060 performance level pgus
I recently did a built like this with the same 4500 CPU , 1 tb nvme, 520 board, 3600 ddr4 ran and 5500 XT for my son, no complaints performance wise.
Great little starter PC!
You sir, have earned a sub!
i need your harddrive shirt. great video!
hehe someone noticed!
i like the new room
You definitely know how to maximize your spending, lol. I think I would have gone with a used B450 motherboard and used ryzen 5 5600. The rest I would have kept the same
I don’t think you understand the point of the video
@@edge60able I do
The 5600 is like 150 and has been for months. Super overpriced. You could argue a 5500 or 12100f though.
@@tumultoustortellini If you had the choice between the 5500 and the 5600 the 5500 wouldn't be it. Even if it is marginally cheaper.
@@riven4121 dudoy, but no, people are acting like the price increase is marginal. the 5500 cost 90 dollars, the 5600 costs *145.* That's up an entire tier dude.
Be careful with that psu, ltt did a thing about it. If it overloads it prevents system loss but then doesn't work again. Might be worth spending a touch more on that.
Honestly we complain a lot about the current state of pc hardware (rightfully so) however considering where we were a few years ago its a wonderful time to build a pc
This list was helpful for me. I am taking my 15 year old (Est.) family desktop that we have had ever since I can remember (I'm nearly 20 now) and am going to put modern parts in it. Problem is... I'll only be able to put a 90mm intake fan in it because it's so old (an OEM HP Desktop). I set my budget between $400-$500 and really, as close to $400 as I can get it. I think I'm going to take your recommendations on Storage and Motherboard, and Im gonna get an appropriate power efficient cpu/gpu from ebay. + a Thermaltake GF1 650w. Best rated PSU for the best price. I'll be able to fit a 3600XT and a 5700XT (used) for $420 total (nice), all together, with the 90mm Noctua fan. I'm gonna also wait until Black Friday to see if any new components go on sale, and then wait until Ebay dies down after the holidays to buy (I assume people will be buying a bunch of parts during Christmas? Or maybe even getting rid of them and I can find a good deal? Idk.)
I've bought my rx6600 brand new in the crypto boom in 2022 march and it cost me 650$ here in europe. It was the best performance for budget card and is still good for me ever since even on 1440p 144hz.
Yaaaayyy your back !
This is a very helpful video. I'm looking to do some upgrades, but I'm on disability, so not a lot of money to spend (and even then, it will have to go on a credit card because I never have a couple hundred dollars to spare and no real way to save, so as long as it just goes onto an already existing bill, then it's fine..well, the best I can do anyway) and figuring out what to get to replace my 1650 Super (struggles in quite a few games unless I run fairly low settings due to the VRAM) has been pretty rough. I never really even thought about a card like this tbh because I was too stuck on looking at like last gen or current, and I think we all know how the prices of current gen are going...I just need to figure out what will work for what I need it to do because I need to keep my computer up and running due to the fact that I use it for some side gigs to be able to afford groceries.
Hey for what it's worth the R5 4500 + RX 6600 combo is less than a 16GB 4060 Ti :)
Also as someone who already has a R5 5600 @ 4.8Ghz all-core + 3060 Ti @ 2.2Ghz core clock I was completely uninterested in anything under the 4070 with Ada Lovelace cards. If anything, upper-high end RDNA 2 cards are having some crazy good deals right now. $399 for a RX 6800, $449 for a 6800 XT, and just under $600 for a 6950 XT. All incredibly powerful cards with 16GB of VRAM that not even fake fra--I mean "frame gen" enabled on the 4060 Ti can compensate for
i sold my 3060ti add some cash and got new rx6800, fps gain is quite big up to 40% in some games..I lost dlss but i dont need it with 240hz 1080p screen, RT is about the same but i dont use that either..
@@roki977 that's my plan. Or a 7700 / 7800 XT
This is nice to see i still remember the horror thay began when the 1080 dropped and the market went to crap. Its been years and finally its stabilized. Only took 3 generations of GPUs to come out...
Just finally made the upgrade from Kabylake i5 to a "new" platform, even AM4 is actually dead. Was thinking about getting the 12400F at first, but in the end AM4 and the 5600X just are a way better fit for me for multiple reasons. Even I´ve ended up spending the same as on Intel, I´ve got so much better parts (B550 Gaming Plus, Kingston Fury Renegade, Deepcool dual-tower aRGB cooler black edition) and especially the mobo connectivity is way ahead of both 1700 and AM5, well to me. Gaming performance is about the same but more importantly, AMD is better at something obviously most pc users and tech tubers don´t seem to realize how important it actually is and how often everyone is relying on that performance without realizing, talking compression/ decompression where letter is the one what matters. Almost every single bit of software nowadays contains compressed archives to save space/ download bandwidth, so the lager Cache for better compression performance sure is welcomend.
Nice man, what GPU did you pair it with?
