@@DawidDoesTechStuff Here in France if you want to ripp someone off, just say what you sell is Artisanal or Organic :D they'd pay whatever you want :D :D
Not only that. You literally pick everything. It just takes put one of the 2 things people say makes a pc "your pc". You either have to build it or have to select the parts.
That's how I bought my alienware. My dad wouldnt let me build my own and I had to get a dell so I customized mine on the website. Only bloatware is dell support assist. Edit: there are some more but it's for the drivers for rgb and overclock presets, and driver updater
One more advantage of the leet system is that since it is using standard ATX case and components, it is far easier to upgrade that system than it is for most volume manufactured prebuilts. Great vid. I really enjoyed this one.
I wouldn't say that the "Artisan" system is a rip, but you can definitely buy a better prebuilt for the same price. I just bought a Lenovo system with a Ryzen 5 2600x, RX 570 4gb, 16gb 3000mhz, built-in wifi/bt, included in a very clean 1st party Legion case for just barely over $700 after tax.

it's just amazing how well the RX570 and RX580 hold up till this day! 1080p is still the most popular resolution for gaming and these little beasts nevre fail to deliver
because you dont need more then 1080p, ok if you want to enjoy a game and get everything out of the graphic then go in 4k or higher but do not lower the graphic then because increase resulotion to have better graphic but decrease the graphic itself is brainless. But there is a reason why Kompetetive gamers are playing on 1080p monitors and not on 1440p or 4k because of the refreshrate of the monitors.
The fact that they installed Firefox means they really know what they're doing, and this is honestly gonna be one of my new standards for prebuilts. Chrome sucks these days, plus Firefox cares about your privacy and security a lot more than Chrome.
@@theoriginalKland So my entire career has revolved around cyber security, and Firefox walks circles around Chrome in terms of security. In every test I've done, Firefox has been just as fast, if not faster, than Chrome. The real difference is when you have multiple tabs open.

Google has gotten pretty lazy with Chrome, and I hate all the tracking they force on you. If you're okay with Google knowing everything about you, then go ahead and use Chrome.

I discovered long ago that if you want a mass-produced machine that is actually quite decent in both hardware and software, the higher-tier office-workstation pc's are the way to go. They are often well-build and low-profile (no flashy lights or sticking-out plastic bits) since they are for the office environment, and they rarely include any bloatware (aside from the free-trial virus-scanner that you can uninstall in 5min time), probably because they know companies are brand-loyal, so they don't want to scare them away with bloated software. Ofcourse if you have the option of built to order from a well-reviewed / trusted builder, I would certainly recommend it, but if that option isn't there or you just want an off-the-shelf pc, what I typed above would, in my experience, be your best bet.
That's a nice looking pre-built pc. The editing is really on point man, congrats. (I really like how Anna is working on the background and doesn't care that you're filming lol)

I have built PCs all my life, but the last time I needed a new machine I bought a nitro 50. And after removing the pre-installed crap, it's a decent machine and cost me less than if I bought the parts.
I love that you actually benchmarked games with sights to see, like Farcry and Battlefield, at high visual settings, while sticking to the realistic minimum settings for something like CSGO where frames are all that matter.

This is a pretty broad generalization. I've seen varying quality of Pre-Builts. The crap you reviewed in that Acer Nitro is the lower tier, but there are better ones like MicroCenter's PowerSpec series that are actually built correctly. Kind of a shame that we don't see those up here in Canada.
I sold a PC last month with those same exact specs (granted it was in a aerocool case) for $550, it cost $475 to build back in February. It would probably cost closer to $600 to build right now with prices being screwed up like they are though

I’m a fan of my MSI laptops...I always add more RAM and storage...then reformat with a fresh Windows install and manufacturer drivers instead of the bundled drivers. Not for everyone, but doesn’t bother me.
The most important aspect of the Acer is it being at Best Buy on the shelf. You can buy it and have it home today, and you can take it back to Best Buy if something is amiss. There will always be a market for that even if not the best value. That being said, I've never understood why Microsoft gives such prebuild companies them cheap/free windows installs when they know they will load them up with bloatware and make the windows experience bad.
With the artisanal build, I would’ve assumed you built that. It doesn’t look like oem crap. I enjoy taking old dell desktops and just beating fronts until the shitty plastic comes off and then giving them good air flow.and taking the cpu heat sink and combining it with other stock heatsinks and adding additional copper to it.
As a coffee lover, i loved the comparison but twitched at the very mention of Nescafe instant o.O Great video as always Dawid - Here in Scotland we have some great artisan coffee shops...which ofc atm are closed (I've said hello on some of your streams but I have a different name on there!). It's actually my times in Sweden that awakened my love of coffee though. On a side note, just a few days ago I put together such a build for a friend of mine over in the US from a built-to-order local place. She seemed happy with the build i suggested so I'm a happy bee.
That's so cool! Thank you for the nice comment! It's a shame that all the coffee shops are closed. Do you have a coffee machine so you can get your fix? 😁 It's great that you built your friend a PC. I think if more people did that we wouldn't need prebuilts.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff I do infact, I have a Tassimo machine (I don't know if you have those over yonder!) Yea, she liked the build, she has it already, though like a British dolt i forgot sales tax so i went over budget. Woops!
I'm pretty the leet review unit received some special treatments. Also if the Acer is instant coffee, I would say leet is more like Starbucks. It is made to order, but still quite generic.
Can you do a budget build including the only thing that doesn’t comply with the word budget... an rtx 2080ti and at least 16 gigs of ram. And see how it works.
By the way Dawid. The '1337' is from the early to mid 00's. It's number terminology for the world 'leet', which is slang for 'elite'. It was used in a lot of FPS online games back then like Counter Strike 1.6 and Unreal 2004 and BF2 and such. Just in case you were curious.
Yeah monitor refresh rate, the first thing I check on a computer that is not mine. Always hated coming to a friends place and the first thing I saw was their CRT monitor flickering.
Dawid: I grow my own coffee beans Friend: Really? Can I see? Dawid: Okay I lied but I built my own gaming PC Friend: ...what how is that the same thing at all
I am pretty sure 1337 PCS is out of business. I ordered a PC from them after watching several reviews but I has been weeks now after my order and I can't contact the company. I am in the process of getting the charge reversed on my credit card now. When you bring up their address on google maps street view is show a space that is for rent.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Me Too, always a joy to see the DDTS Notification, although I'm a bit different to most I watch my favourites last, I suffer from depression & the laughs I get from your videos help me through the day 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰, love to you, Anna & Neko 🧔👱♀️😺
HAHAHA the crazy thing is I LIKE that Nescafe coffee!! And yes, Firefox since before it was Firefox. Faster and more secure than any other browser. I still want a system where I have selected the motherboard options and not an off-the-shelf board.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Haha I have a cup of Nescafe now while ignoring the snow squalls out side. It's good that there is a rise in these type of custom builders though, I remember when you couldn't shake a without hitting a shop doing them and then they all but vanished. The next will have to be "office in a box" given how big a global change has come about to work-at-home.
again a top video, you give me the confidence to finly thinking avout building my own pc. you can laugh my pc is so old it cant even handle windows ten. a compaq hp intel pentium dual core with 4gb ram, thats most i can put in. no gpu
I use firefox and comodo ice dragon cause chrome was giving me a 'non responding' error many times and hour and would freeze up. i tried 'Brave' another chromium based browser and that did same thing. So I use non-chromium based browsers. My computer overall works better, doesnt crash nearly as much as it had been.
I bought a built to order computer from Memory Express. Their warranty is next to unbeatable. They merely charged me an extra $100 or so to build it for me - which is worth it for me because I save time and it’s covered if anything goes wrong. I chose all my parts in store. I think that’s very different than a pre built Asus TUF x570 gaming pro Wifi 2x8 GB vengeance Corsair 3200mhz Ram Asus RTX 2070 super gaming advanced Ryzen 7 3700x Corsair 750 80+ gold PSU Corsair carbide spec-omega Case
Something that needs to be said is that the higher-end one having an NVMe SSD is totally irrelevant for your average gamer, as NVMe SSDs load games virtually no faster than SATA SSDs. It's one of those facts that many refuse to acknowledge/accept, but the proof is there via a plethora of benchmarks/videos. What NVMe SSDs are superior in is moving large files, but most people don't care about that, anyway. However, I'd still take that PC, of course. I'd just grab a 2-terabyte SSD and put it in.
I think you can get a decent pre-build, but just be ready to pay a higher price. I mean depending on the additional items you're doing, such as water cooling, a decent pre-build will probably cost you about $200-300 in addition to the parts pricing. And a good pre-build will use quality components (some you can pick out yourself -- or in some cases, you choose all the components and just pay someone to do it) and have good organization (ie. wires).
I spent $80 on a case with 3 or 4 RGB fans for $80 off amazon, a Ryzen 5 3600 off ebay for $165, a B450 motherboard for $99 on NewEgg, then I bought a 8GB RX580, 8GB of DDR4-2600 ( I know it is slow for Ryzen but it's what I have for now, will upgrade to 16GB 3000+ some time soon probably bring my total to $500-550), and a 600 watt 80+ EVGA PSU off Facebook Marketplace for $110 used, and I have a old 240GB SSD and 1TB HDD that I've had for awhile, so for $455 I got a decent better performing PC than buying a new prebuilt. I feel satisfied I got such a good deal.
I found a great price on a pre built, it was actually cheaper than getting all the parts separately and building it myself, it was a built to order so I changed a few of the specs like the power supply and stuff and then they built it and sent it out to me, I already had bought a 6750 XT and I just added that myself when it arrived. Definitely wouldn't buy one of the weird OEM ones though.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Hair grows, no big deal. I did the same with mine, then went crawling back to my wife so she could fix it. On the plus side, I had to watch the video twice, so more money for you! Great one as usual!
Dude, Mozilla Firefox is an institution, you can't talk trash about the best web browser ever made, the only one left which is still fighting for your few freedoms left :p Nice build though, i'm very impressed! Have a great week and please respect the Mozilla foundation :p
I've been looking for an upgrade for my so-so black friday prebuilt, and this seems like a point in the right direction! Thank you :) However, if someone has a built-to-order budget build around $1000 I wouldn't mind any suggestions!
Personally I find it really quite frustrating that cases these days are forging space for a DVD drive, especially the smaller ones which would be suited to media PCs. Now I know space is at a premium so why not offer the option for a laptop style DVD drive in the case? I have a large DVD collection I still like to watch, as well as many games that come on disc and require it in the drive in order to be able to play. It's just so much more convenient to pop the disc in to watch a movie or play the game than having to spend time ripping the movies & TV shows (having the requisite hard drive space to store them all) and having to visit dodgy sites to try and track down a no-CD crack. Also I know others have mentioned it but I feel compelled to as well. 1337 = leet = Elite. It seems leetspeak is a thing of the past.
Laptop dvd drives have a tendency to damage discs. The spring loaded tabs on the hub can crack the plastic around the center hole which is permanent. Standard drives do not have these tabs and instead employ a soft magnetic means of retention at the hub. This gentle clamping of the disc almost completely removes the likelihood of damage.
But... I love my instant coffee. :( (And my Firefox) I think the most important thing we can get from this video is that "105 FPS" has no basis on anything. Seriously, they include game benchmarks on their listing but 105 FPS isn't a result for ANY of the games. On a side note, some of your benchmarks versus the benchmarks they include on their site don't match up. Some of them do. This is almost certainly due to their graphic settings which they don't actually specify. Ones that do match up: Rainbow Six Seige, Far Cry 5, PUBG Ones that do not match up: CS:GO (Yours was much HIGHER) Fortnite (Yours was much LOWER)
There definitely are mass produced pre-builts that are not just Office PCs that have graphics cards tacked on. They do have pre-builts that ARE gaming from the start.
Hi, David. Could u do a video about choosing a cooling device for processor. Cause i wanna buy a AMD Ryzen 7 3800X and i don't really understand how to choose a cooler, or is it necessary to buy a water cooling system. I watched a bunch of TH-cam videos but in one video says that TDP is usefull in other says that TDP is useless.
Do they let you upgrade the parts without voiding the warranty on the whole system besides the parts you replace? Like that power supply. I want to build my own. But unable due to where I live.
The doom background is (probably) a reference to a very old doom mod released in 2002 called the new doom 1.0, the mod is very divisive with some people rating 0/5 and other 5/5, 0/5 is the majority

As a coffee lover, i loved the comparison but twitched at the very mention of Nescafe instant o.O Great video as always Dawid - Here in Scotland we have some great artisan coffee shops...which ofc atm are closed (I've said hello on some of your streams but I have a different name on there!). It's actually my times in Sweden that awakened my love of coffee though. On a side note, just a few days ago I put together such a build for a friend of mine over in the US from a built-to-order local place. She seemed happy with the build i suggested so I'm a happy bee.
That's so cool! Thank you for the nice comment! It's a shame that all the coffee shops are closed. Do you have a coffee machine so you can get your fix? 😁
It's great that you built your friend a PC. I think if more people did that we wouldn't need prebuilts.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff I do infact, I have a Tassimo machine (I don't know if you have those over yonder!) Yea, she liked the build, she has it already, though like a British dolt i forgot sales tax so i went over budget. Woops!
Funfact: Firefox is the only to me known browser which allows you to stream in a discord screen sharing with sound.
Love the cd drive joke
It's all jokes until you buy a piece of hardware that requires one because it's the only way to load the drivers for it.
@@Hless421 So you buy your hardware in 2005?
The Nitro 50 looks nice and promising
Bro I see you everywhere wow
I'm pretty the leet review unit received some special treatments. Also if the Acer is instant coffee, I would say leet is more like Starbucks. It is made to order, but still quite generic.
What's the length of that 1650? It's tiny
Very tiny 😅
"Does anyone still use firefox?"
Got me hurtin' bro
I mean... firefox is old dont you think?
@@whyers4782 new firefox gets updated every week and is amazing
Thank you for telling me for 1337 PC, I now know what PC I will buy thanks to you
If you’re on a budget don’t bother the cheapest one there doesn’t even got a graphics card and it’s like 630
Can you do a budget build including the only thing that doesn’t comply with the word budget... an rtx 2080ti and at least 16 gigs of ram. And see how it works.
By the way Dawid. The '1337' is from the early to mid 00's. It's number terminology for the world 'leet', which is slang for 'elite'. It was used in a lot of FPS online games back then like Counter Strike 1.6 and Unreal 2004 and BF2 and such. Just in case you were curious.
Yeah monitor refresh rate, the first thing I check on a computer that is not mine. Always hated coming to a friends place and the first thing I saw was their CRT monitor flickering.
Dawid: I grow my own coffee beans
Friend: Really? Can I see?
Dawid: Okay I lied but I built my own gaming PC
Friend: ...what how is that the same thing at all
Takes dremel to Acer.
Acer: "Just what do you think you're doing Dawid?"
I am pretty sure 1337 PCS is out of business. I ordered a PC from them after watching several reviews but I has been weeks now after my order and I can't contact the company. I am in the process of getting the charge reversed on my credit card now. When you bring up their address on google maps street view is show a space that is for rent.
That firefox is probably buddy at the factory grabbing the drivers.
I LOVE your humour Dawid!
Thanks Gary! :D
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Me Too, always a joy to see the DDTS Notification, although I'm a bit different to most I watch my favourites last, I suffer from depression & the laughs I get from your videos help me through the day 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰, love to you, Anna & Neko 🧔👱♀️😺
Really digging the new haircut! Keep up the good work!
I have no interest in building or buying a computer but I like your channel 😁😁😁
HAHAHA the crazy thing is I LIKE that Nescafe coffee!! And yes, Firefox since before it was Firefox. Faster and more secure than any other browser. I still want a system where I have selected the motherboard options and not an off-the-shelf board.
Haha!! It seems a bunch of my jokes were targeting you. 😂
I agree with the motherboard comment. 👍
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Haha I have a cup of Nescafe now while ignoring the snow squalls out side. It's good that there is a rise in these type of custom builders though, I remember when you couldn't shake a without hitting a shop doing them and then they all but vanished. The next will have to be "office in a box" given how big a global change has come about to work-at-home.
You see the ACER Nitro focused on the most popular games out there and it runs super fantastisch high settings at 1080P..
again a top video,
you give me the confidence to finly thinking avout building my own pc.
you can laugh my pc is so old it cant even handle windows ten.
a compaq hp intel pentium dual core with 4gb ram, thats most i can put in. no gpu
have you started building it yet? :)
I use firefox and comodo ice dragon cause chrome was giving me a 'non responding' error many times and hour and would freeze up. i tried 'Brave' another chromium based browser and that did same thing. So I use non-chromium based browsers. My computer overall works better, doesnt crash nearly as much as it had been.
I bought a built to order computer from Memory Express. Their warranty is next to unbeatable. They merely charged me an extra $100 or so to build it for me - which is worth it for me because I save time and it’s covered if anything goes wrong. I chose all my parts in store. I think that’s very different than a pre built
Asus TUF x570 gaming pro Wifi

Something that needs to be said is that the higher-end one having an NVMe SSD is totally irrelevant for your average gamer, as NVMe SSDs load games virtually no faster than SATA SSDs. It's one of those facts that many refuse to acknowledge/accept, but the proof is there via a plethora of benchmarks/videos. What NVMe SSDs are superior in is moving large files, but most people don't care about that, anyway. However, I'd still take that PC, of course. I'd just grab a 2-terabyte SSD and put it in.
I think you can get a decent pre-build, but just be ready to pay a higher price. I mean depending on the additional items you're doing, such as water cooling, a decent pre-build will probably cost you about $200-300 in addition to the parts pricing. And a good pre-build will use quality components (some you can pick out yourself -- or in some cases, you choose all the components and just pay someone to do it) and have good organization (ie. wires).
The Acer monobrow... lol. Can't wait for the dremmel to Hal.
I spent $80 on a case with 3 or 4 RGB fans for $80 off amazon, a Ryzen 5 3600 off ebay for $165, a B450 motherboard for $99 on NewEgg, then I bought a 8GB RX580, 8GB of DDR4-2600 ( I know it is slow for Ryzen but it's what I have for now, will upgrade to 16GB 3000+ some time soon probably bring my total to $500-550), and a 600 watt 80+ EVGA PSU off Facebook Marketplace for $110 used, and I have a old 240GB SSD and 1TB HDD that I've had for awhile, so for $455 I got a decent better performing PC than buying a new prebuilt. I feel satisfied I got such a good deal.
Who don’t wear gloves when building someone’s pc especially in 2020 ya dirty animal!
I found a great price on a pre built, it was actually cheaper than getting all the parts separately and building it myself, it was a built to order so I changed a few of the specs like the power supply and stuff and then they built it and sent it out to me, I already had bought a 6750 XT and I just added that myself when it arrived.
Definitely wouldn't buy one of the weird OEM ones though.
nani?! A good prebuilt?!
Sugoi!
The DVD player is the best thing ever
@6:52 " some Acer crap" 🤣🤣🤣 I had to back and look at that again
Me: Oh new video! Cool, I wonder...
*Stares at screen*
Me: What... his hair... wu...
*Spends rest of video watching hair.*
I still can't stop looking at it. 😂
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Hair grows, no big deal. I did the same with mine, then went crawling back to my wife so she could fix it.
On the plus side, I had to watch the video twice, so more money for you! Great one as usual!
I bought the NZXT Prebuilt and I never regretted it.
The bloatware is why they are usually cheaper as well but also they buy parts in bulk so that’s another reason
Lmao the crap pre build was my first pc 😂, glad I build myself a new one
Btw just wondering does it only run 1 monitor?
Idk the newest nitro with an i7 is actually very good for comp
Dude, Mozilla Firefox is an institution, you can't talk trash about the best web browser ever made, the only one left which is still fighting for your few freedoms left :p
Nice build though, i'm very impressed!
Have a great week and please respect the Mozilla foundation :p
I use Firefox because they have better privacy. Brave is a good browser as well, from what I have heard
I've been looking for an upgrade for my so-so black friday prebuilt, and this seems like a point in the right direction! Thank you :)
However, if someone has a built-to-order budget build around $1000 I wouldn't mind any suggestions!
Personally I find it really quite frustrating that cases these days are forging space for a DVD drive, especially the smaller ones which would be suited to media PCs. Now I know space is at a premium so why not offer the option for a laptop style DVD drive in the case? I have a large DVD collection I still like to watch, as well as many games that come on disc and require it in the drive in order to be able to play.
It's just so much more convenient to pop the disc in to watch a movie or play the game than having to spend time ripping the movies & TV shows (having the requisite hard drive space to store them all) and having to visit dodgy sites to try and track down a no-CD crack.
Also I know others have mentioned it but I feel compelled to as well. 1337 = leet = Elite. It seems leetspeak is a thing of the past.
Laptop dvd drives have a tendency to damage discs. The spring loaded tabs on the hub can crack the plastic around the center hole which is permanent. Standard drives do not have these tabs and instead employ a soft magnetic means of retention at the hub. This gentle clamping of the disc almost completely removes the likelihood of damage.
But... I love my instant coffee. :( (And my Firefox) I think the most important thing we can get from this video is that "105 FPS" has no basis on anything. Seriously, they include game benchmarks on their listing but 105 FPS isn't a result for ANY of the games.
On a side note, some of your benchmarks versus the benchmarks they include on their site don't match up. Some of them do. This is almost certainly due to their graphic settings which they don't actually specify.
Ones that do match up: Rainbow Six Seige, Far Cry 5, PUBG
Ones that do not match up: CS:GO (Yours was much HIGHER) Fortnite (Yours was much LOWER)
Did just Dawid insult Firefox users? (5:20 for those who do to now what I'm talking about.)
There's no good reason to still be using Firefox unless you're running Windows XP.
@@Kundalini12 Ehm. No.
He's joking
OMG that hair, I almost fell of my chair. AMD B450 Ryzen 4000 upgrade is dead. Love your work as always. I Firefox everyday.
You know you’ve gone too far when you deface CrystalDiskMark with an anime skin 7:21
There definitely are mass produced pre-builts that are not just Office PCs that have graphics cards tacked on. They do have pre-builts that ARE gaming from the start.
Hi, David. Could u do a video about choosing a cooling device for processor. Cause i wanna buy a AMD Ryzen 7 3800X and i don't really understand how to choose a cooler, or is it necessary to buy a water cooling system. I watched a bunch of TH-cam videos but in one video says that TDP is usefull in other says that TDP is useless.
if your case has room for it buy a huge noctua and it will follow you for many years.best and cheapest long term
If you dont hav the money for a huge beefy noctua just get the hyper 212 from cooler master. Works well enough.
Take a shot every time he says "artisanal"
That's a dangerous game. 😁
I added another scoop of Instant to my home made coffee everytime he said it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☕🥴
Do they let you upgrade the parts without voiding the warranty on the whole system besides the parts you replace? Like that power supply.
I want to build my own. But unable due to where I live.
They should've left the fans in default position for the 510
I did also think that. I filmed me saying that, but I forgot to put it in the final video. 😅
Great video as always!!
Thank you very much. 😃
Fragging dem Noobs sounds like the name of a small town in Holland.
OK, that had me chortling for minutes...thanks!
The 1337 domain in the link isn’t a thing/ doesn’t exist?
Dawid trying to confuse everyone by using crystal disk mark waifu edition on one but not the other PC 😉
5:24 Firefox is way better than most other stuff (especially that spyware called Chrome).
To be fair, Nescafe Gold Organic, tastes quite good for instant coffee.
The doom background is (probably) a reference to a very old doom mod released in 2002 called the new doom 1.0, the mod is very divisive with some people rating 0/5 and other 5/5, 0/5 is the majority
Huh.. I thought there would be a bigger difference in the 1 and 0.1 % lows. The Acer one should have rather long load times though.
i will say some things about the 1337
1. personal prefrence i dont like m atx boards in atx cases
2. the cpu cable could of been tucked in better
MATX boards do look very terrible but are also a fair bit easier to install
Sk0die yeah that is true it just looks weird with that extra space not being utilized
