Just a tip, put that PSU sticker on the other side, or even just sharpie the model and wattage so the next guy knows what he's working with!
I peel off the sticker on my builds, put it in the other side of the psu, and add vynil to the visible side of the psu
I thought the same. That sticker has useful info for safety and proper use.
definitely a super clean build. Looks fantastic! Spray-painting the GPU shroud was the cherry on top.
As always, great music selection!
Your videos are always a joy to watch! Really looking forward to the finale build, and seeing what design you have in store for us. ^v^
Thank you so much kaity! Always love your comments!
Ketchup and mustard cables - loved that one. And “green” circuit boards. Ahh. Memories from my old build days. Your builds look amazing! Id buy it just too look at - like the new fish tank for mood!
Haha yeah this pc ended up looking real awesome!
Another awesome build, cheers Bro
Much appreciated
I love those gloves. I get them from Home Depot. Use them for everything from cleaning to plumbing
Yeah they are super awesome
Another Solid Build
Appreciate that bud! You would see next weeks tho 😱 it’s the coolest thing I have built yet!
A "Murdered Out", AKA all black or the classic red and black gamer color combo would be a pretty sick looking build, with your skills I think both of these ideas could come out to be epic.
Oh...and 420...😎 lol.
I have done each of those builds but I am not opposed to doing more. I love the blacked out and red and black look for sure
Too excited ❤❤❤❤
You are awesome
Rig came out spectacular. Well done Sir!
Thanks 👍
Great job, that PC ended up just amazing!
Thank you so much! I love how it turned out
this PC ended up looking AMAZING, Great job keep it going man
Glad you liked it!!
PC looks amazing! I think if the cables going into the top of the board could have been routed down the back of the motherboard instead of through those top cable holes it could have been even cleaner though. I am a bit concerned about the VRM on that board; a 3700X is probably more beefy than it was designed for and you don't have a downdraft cooler to give more airflow to the VRMs like on a stock cooler. I think a 4500 + spray-painted stock cooler is probably the way to go for that board and probably cheaper than the combo you have with the 3700X + fat tower cooler.
Mobo temps before I worked on it with that old Athlon cpu we around 58c and after I installed the 3700x temps were at 59c….I think it will be alright. Pretty sure that with the addition of the huge cpu cooler added additional airflow through the fins that are helping it stay cool. Now as far as a stock cooler goes……you are foooorrrrr sure going to thermal throttle that cpu with stock cooling. R7’s run hot normally and with the X variant you are absolutely looking at a thermal throttle under load
Definitely liked the idea to use a heat gun to remove the sticker from the exposed PSU logo, cheaper than the vinyl sheets, though as per your Deepcool video that PSU is "white" it is an off "white". LOL!
Looks great, that 1080 is the cleanest part to me
I agree 100%
That's a gorgeous PC 😍😍😍😍😍
So glad you like it!
Damn i just discovered ur channel and absolutely love the series. I enjoy finding pc parts for a steal, as i dont have unlimited budget like some. Recently got a 200sgd 3080(150ish usd). Would say its one of my best finds so far
Look forward to greater content coming in the future :)
$150 for a 3080! Now that is a wicked deal for sure!!! Glad you are enjoying the series my dude!!!
Great video
Thanks!
Hey man great job as always.
Thank you man!
I really need that
Congrats on 10k subs
Thank you so much 😀
yay new video
The build looks beautiful. However given the title of the video I was expecting more of the original system to be retained.
Yeah I wanted too as well, unfortunately the psu was garbage and the 1050ti was not going to be enough for that 3700x so all I was really left with was the board and the nvme. Because there was no ram in the system and nobody wants a Athlon cpu these days
Ah yes a new vid to make my day
Another amazing video legend 😁
Thank you my man! I do it for you!
So what did you actually use from the original computer?
The vibes obviously
"This is worth 400$. I am going to sell it to you for 700$."
And this business model actually works???!
AMAZING!!!
Theres a difference, you pay for someone to build it and make it work. If you dont want to pay that, build it yourself. Just like anything. Ever

Time is money.
Part selection and sourcing
Repair / cleaning / service
assembly, bios update, stress testing
I am surprised he painted the graphics card fan shroud. That is way above what most people would do.
Another great episode man, keep it up 🔥
Thanks! Will do!
Idk if I said this but congrats on 10k SUBS🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Aw thank you so much! Growing fast for sure!
oooo yeh i'd like to see some red and black in the next computer.
I’ll put it on my list ;)
I'd be more inclined an black and blue machine currently running an older fx 6300 ddr 3 platform. Your awesome dude
Black and blue sounds great! I’ll add it to my list
You knocked another one out of the park my friend.
I mean like Sammy Sosa with a corked bat out of the park!
Looking harder than welfare peanut butter!
Keep on keeping on homie, and as always #StayFrosty
Hahaha now that was a funny comment
The only thing kept was the motherboard?? Surely just a new power supply, some rgb remote controlled fans and maybe a ryzen 5 2600 would have been the best easy flip? I've been binge-ing your vids since finding them but this one was a bit of a stretch from the original pc
What cleaning solution do you use in the spray bottle?
99% medical grade isopropyl alcohol
Hey, great content! I built this year my first pc with used parts in this exact case! Its a nice case, but I got mAtx a320 motherboard and somehow the case looks a bit empty, any tips to make it more beautiful inside? I plan to paint the gpu white and add the white extensions with the next upgrades too, may be also paint the stock cooler or change it with a better.
Best advice I have for filling up space inside your case if you are using a MAtx in a full ATX tower is to mount the gpu vertically. That case has the ability to mount it that was already built into the case, all you would need is a riser cable for like $20 on Amazon. That way you will see more of your card as well as it will fill up the empty space in the bottom section of the pc.
this is good for emulator games😊😊😊.. love the aesthetics 😊
Haha this is overkill for emulators lol
Pretty good video would like to see some inside how you find the best deal computer to flip and compare it to the used market
Thanks for the idea! I will be sure to make a video in the future going over how I find the computers. And what to look for. Hard to add that into the build videos with out extending the length of the video too long. I try and keep the videos to 15-20 min
What all do you use for your test drive? or do you manually download everything to each to frame check it?
I have a 2tb sata SSD that has all of my games on it. I just plug it in and play :)
I believe it is a team force
At the start, and thinking... Hope you updated the BIOS before changing the CPU, as A320s don't have flashback
Haha yeah I got you covered
30 buck???, for 1tb nvme,am4 motherbord and 1050ti!!!! what a deal!!!
Yeah it was a bargain for sure!
maybe atleast write the wattage on the psu after removing the sticker
Arent black cases better to sell?
Honestly it all depends on the case and what design the pc is. I find that as long as the pc is unique it will get lots of clicks. If it’s just a normal build then it takes a while to grab the attention of a buyer
Omggg i can finally comment
So basically you paid 30$ for a motherboard
And a 1tb nvme….you get better deals then that?
Then he sold the other parts he didn't use. To subtract from the new parts put in.
Im gonna say rhe only thing that gets me about this entire video is u only used 2 parts from the original pc and thats the motherboard and ssd. Everything else is from other places so its not really " upgrading " the other pc its literally building a new pc with used parts
I find deals to flip into profit. Not take whole systems and flip them. I build systems to sell. I don’t care if it’s a whole system or parts from one. I never stated that I needed to use the whole system for flips. Would be one ugly end result if I did
dude, those apevia essence psus are bombs
You know, in my over 200+ pc builds I have had 0 issues with these. But out of all my builds I have had more problems with Corsair psus. 2 of them killed the whole system and one evga psu caught fire. Oddly enough I have used over 20 Apevia psus and have never had a issue
@@ThePcRehab i've legit had 3 of those essence units break in a build i've been using for ages, apevia's warranty is god awful. would it cost that much more to go with at least the apevia prestige? it's a well rated tier c unit with actual 80+ gold efficiency
Wow, you have some seriously bad luck! Not one issue over here with them ever. As I said before, I have had more issues with your “A and B tier psu’s” and all electronics are subject to the same fault issues as any other and people should not live and die by some subjective list of products 🤷♂️
yo i thought this wasnt a giveaway pc lol
We are getting there!
I would like to see you show us how to sell
I have a recent video with tips on how to list your computer. I launched it a few weeks ago. Hope it helps
The 1050ti is a absolute monster......for 720p xd
In csgo haha
instead of posting it like 700$ , post like maybe 698$or 699$ something
This! It won't impact your income much, but it'll look better on the market and sell quicker.
lol the amount of thermal paste on cpu serious ? and yr stikers idea LOL the psu rip in 3 2 1 leaving yr channel
I hate the trend of taking off or covering the label in the PSUs
Why?
Wow that turned out great! Also the paint job on the 1080 turned out really nice. I had that same model, and I think the white looks way nicer on it, good job.
Also, be careful of your VRM temps! that a320 board is cheap and was really only designed for quad and 6 core chips. If the power delivery gets too hot, it will throttle the 3700X pretty bad
Mobo temps never hit over 58c. Pretty sure the large cooler has residual air movement that is helping keeping those VRMs nice and chilly
hey i have a decent little pc my friend gave me id like to sell for cheap that i think would be perfect for your channel.
Oh yeah? Shoot me a message on my discord and we can talk about it
Bop
Boop
i wrote this comment for the algorithm
The algorithm appreciates it
That new PSU looks like a fire hazard as well if you ask me.
🤦♂️
Why would you say that?
It looks pretty good to me.
First comment keep up the good work
Thanks! Will do!
