    5:35 yeah, that is an initial cheaper investment but even if you use the best chipset (z77), that entire build is a dead end(2nd/3rd gen intel, DDR3 ram/ GPU is barely better than Vega igpu at 1080p). Even an entry level a320 board is better than whatever chipset the 2nd/3rd gen Intel CPUs used. The £254 PC at least has an upgrade path since you don't need to completely replace 75% of your initial build.

    If there's only ONE new component i put in a build it's an SSD. 120gb if the HDD is 320gb or more, but i've recently put a 240gb SSD in a build where the HDD was only 200gb to make up for it. If i buy a HDD new it's always 1tb. Cheers again.

  • @oceania68

    One of the things I observe when people are trying to sell computers is that many people tend to forget the other side of computer use, and that is, home office/home education. This is a value added marketing point when upscaling the sale especially for low specs builds. Casting your net to a wider audience so to speak, would increase the sale audience range and increasing your profit chances especially if you are selling locally. For this particular build, I would have included the option as a suitable home office/education as well as gaming computer. But, that is my opinion.

  • @93desousa
    @93desousa 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    For a budget build you want 120gb SSD, 500gb hdd. The psu is also super overkill. With the prices they are at (at least in the US) that thing is worth more then any component in the build by at least 2x.

    @Buttfinckle 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Forgive me if I’m wrong, but I can’t find a justifiable reason to ensure the PCs I sell due to living in an area where trusting people is on a decline and people will return something or purposely break it to then return it to me. Maybe in AUS the people are different, idk. In my ads I state the the PCs have been properly tested and benchmarked to ensure stability. I should also state that I have absolutely no issue taking a look at a PC I’ve sold someone if they are having issues. The guarantee makes sense and I understand that, but this is just how I see things playing out if I were to offer that.
    If I were selling, let’s say, skateboards. Well a skateboard has little user error and the chances of someone returning it are slim due to them being able to fix something themselves. PCs on the other hand are technical, and user error is usually why I get a text or call when something occurs. I would say that 1 out of every 4 PCs I sell, I’ll get a message from a buyer asking questions that are usually solved in less than 5 min. With a guarantee involved I see it playing out much differently.

    I build and sell computers for a hobby. I am a retired Dell builder and later Auditor.. I never expect to make much if any money at it. Depending on what I find on sale and in the used market I can build some nice systems that can run games well. Right now the market for parts is dead. A few tidbits pop up used but the new market? Most say in stock but after you drop it into the basket on Amazon it says "Available June 3rd or something like that." So your looking at a full month for the part and maybe more for it to arrive do to the super slow shipping as of late. I have a really nice Ryzen 3600 system for sale all SSD An Nvme and 2.5 drive. All I could get was an open frame case and its just not selling.. And finding any kind of decent case is a no go so far. I purchased one on Amazon only to find 3 days later they cancled my order and they have locked up that money to purchase another one for over a week now. Amazon Customer service is non existant atm....

    I don't want to be a pooper, but I would actually buy the AM4 pc. I would want new parts and Intel is not an option as an entry system anymore IMO, more so a "at the moment route" system. They now become too outdate too quickly for me to recomend Intel to a new user. At least for gaming. Normally, everyone's first PC for some reason is very quickly "not enough" because people buy lower tier components thinking they are high end and locking a newcomer out of future upgrades on a "budget" system renders it useless pretty quickly. The user would usually need to sell the old pc, which can deter them off PCs in general and often times don't even sell the pc and just switch to console because of the experience.
    PS. Tune in from PR, love both your channels! Most real tech tubers out here.

    There is no such thing as "Guarentee my systems for ...months" when selling in UK.

    Me too, i would have swap that PSU into some 300w or 400w PSU to save some money.

    Any advice on how to price a PC build? Market driven? Cost % mark up? I've listed a GTX 1070 + Ryzen 2700 + 16 GB DDR4 at $1300 CAD. any feedback is greatly appreciated!!

    I play test every PC I sell online. So that way, I know what all it can do in the games that the people I am marketing towards are going to ask about(mostly online shooters, with some other games mixed in, like SotTR). Being as truthful as possible, and even on topics where the PC in question doesn't shine, can win you the sale over people who advertise the bullshit line "It plays everything I throw at it on Ultra settings". I just tell them what it is, what it does, and what it could be with an upgrade or two.

    you missed two important facts which sort of makes your comparision unvalid
    1) randoms pc was ALL NEW PARTS ,he wasnt building a 'refurb' so to compare to your i5/h61/ddr3 and second hand hdd is a bit silly
    2) his system cost of £250 actually translates to $250 us (the VAT and retail mark up's make UK pc parts more or less exact same number as USA mrsp) theres no need to convert uk pounds to us dollers in effect its the same number in both currencies

    ok but on theirs pc u can switch to quad core and insert a graphics card and got a great pc...that i5 and 960 cant go for long...and the value only goes down especially of something dies of age...but in theirs its bit newer and should last longer.tnx

  • @xhivo97

    Also you can't really compare building with used parts to building with new parts, I do agree that the CPU he used is underpowered. Considering the uograde path is solid, I wouldn't worry about it.

    I had a feeling when I saw the thumbnail this was the video you'd be covering. lol. I watched it when it came out and I was like "Noooooo, this is too much info, you're going to confuse/overwhelm the customer. Just tell them what it does and give them the specs!" or something like that. The people shopping for this low-end of a PC legit just want to know what it can do, and they may ask you some good questions you can answer, but in my experience they don't even do that unless they have 1 specific game in mind they're hoping to play that wasn't listed in the description.

    Does anyone know, why at 5:28, do the OEMs like to have CPU fans placed at angles rather than straight? This seems to happen in quite a few of these systems it seems.

    If i want to sell my current rig but want to keep my files and games so i dont have to re install , can i just remove that drive and put a new drive into that system install windows then done. And as for my new rig, could i just plug in my drive and it should work .? If not what do i do ?

    The only thing i'd change is that A320 motherboard. It feels like a dead end to the buyer. I'd go for a 256GB SSD and a budget B450 board as they cost about 15$ more (at least where i live).

    • @koreannom
      @koreannom 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      AMD said B450 is end of line too, you'd want to get the new B550 boards now.

  • @cks4758
    @cks4758 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would have said the SSD can be an option and put in a mechanical hard drive (cheaper, more reliable and larger capacity for the price).

  • @mikedodd8487
    @mikedodd8487 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I watch rghd as I'm from the UK. Sadly the used market is awful at the moment. He is building all new with upgrade paths. This is why the good psu and am4 system.
    If it was me however I would go for 120gb ssd and 500gb hdd and add a 750ti.
