@@JoeMama-ly1kc not really the gpu is obviously the most expensive thing right now but unless you are playing games like cyberpunk at 1440 or 4k you can get a good one much cheaper than 1.5k I bought a used 1080 ti for 400 before getting my 3080 and it was fine.

I have a challenge for you, I live on a boat and run my home off large lithium house batteries. I get 240v main ac from an inverter, so basically house power from a battery. Is it possible to build a gaming pc to be as low power consumption as possible? Maybe a niche idea, but it would be awesome to be able to game off grid. Cheers, love the vids!
@@nerditor6706 well... the amount of beating it takes to really make that gpu go down is a testament why it is the point of reference for low end gpus. Though if you can get a R7 360, that one will outperform the 750ti.
@@iamsokyut For the price range, a 2gb 750ti can be had for $100 and it will play pretty much any modern game in 720p or 1080p with low-med settings... Kinda the gold standard in price and availability at the moment.

One of the best budget builds videos I've seen in this difficult market. Instead of going for the cheapest system possible or pushing the budget to accommodate all brand new hardware, you made reasonable compromises, and your system for choosing an affordable graphics card is great. Something which just steps into DX12 territory with enough memory and GPU power to play any modern game at 1080p and low settings. An entry level modern gaming PC at a pre-scalper/shortage price point. Subscribed!
There's alot of elitism in PC gaming, and I accept that I was a part of that for too long. I hope that quality prebuilds become more affordable so more people can enjoy PC gaming
This video reminds me of when I first got into PC gaming and I would try to make a build that provided decent 1080p performance, usually under $500. It was so fun trying to get all the parts and putting them together and firing the system up for the first time for everything to (hopefully) boot up. It was an excitement when it would. Between the insane pricing of the current market and my mentality where I felt like I needed to have the best (or close to it) in order to play and enjoy the games, somewhere that joy has been lost. This video brought it back. Thanks.
I honestly have to turn off what my brain cells are used to and what they prefer, and have to take this from the perspective of someone who hasn't even a PC, *at all.* I'm sure that even if it appears a little jittery, this is something they would undoubtedly be happy about because this is something greater than what they have: the fact that they can play video games on the PC. Good luck to those who are entering the giveaway.

Such a helpful channel! Thank you for all of the effort you put into each video. I'm fortunate enough now to have a very decent PC,but showing most anyone how to jump into the arena is applause worthy. Keep it up! I'll keep watching and sharing your uploads!
This video is so wholesome feeling. It reminds me of my dad's story of building his first PC when they first came out. He asked my grandfather for a computer, and my grandfather bought him a single component. He had to figure it out and pay for all the components himself. Now I'm doing the same thing. I'm much luckier since the component my dad bought me was a 3070ti and charged me 50$ less than retail during the shortage. I like to think it's still within the tradition though since I'm gonna be decking out my entire room. Anyhow your voice is very calming.
nah i manage to get a 1060-6gb for £20 basicall new gotta look around hard for bargins or people who wanna get rid of there stuff because they have a upgrade
IN 2022 here and prices are still BS, I found this video while not looking and I changed the Case for a rack but I Love IT!!!! i added my old 1tb disk drive to it as backup storage and im using it right now!!!!! LOVE it THANK YOU so Much!!!!
It's a sad state of affairs that several year old hardware is what we are falling back to- However you have managed to make it not suck, as hard. Thanks for that, and the soundtrack .
I have been wanting to build my PC for quite some time. I'm so happy that you've been able to create the perfect video to help me get started... This has been something that I've been scared to do because of the price for quite some times. I'm just happy you made a video so easy and nice to hear. Never seen anyone ever make a video like this! Love it!
Damn ok. Legit 300 dollar PC. A lot of low budget PC builds ive seen others post revolve around them getting lucky and finding a good deal and still calling it low budget but usually a lot harder to replicate. Respect to this guy
Dude, so glad to see your channel blowing up. Your production value is top-notch (the edit where you talked to yourself was awesome) and you're deserving of the TH-cam million$ coming your way. I think your my favorite tech-reviewer!
Great video. I want to upgrade my GTX1060 for a long time but card prices the last years were nutty and I wasn't willing to pay for that. And even though the prices have fallen a lot they still are not even at MRSP level for the 3000 series. They should be actually way below that right now.
I love this build and the fact it can hit 60 FPS 95% of the time is amazing and I bet running games at 900p will make games always get the consistent frame rate.
Thank you so much! Perfect price point and beginning for my kids first gaming PC! I really liked that you tested out the pc after the build so we can see what it looks like!
Omg all of the other videos I watched trying to build this where so exspensive and so hard to watch but you are so funny and made the video feel so short not like an eternity
I built my PC 8 years ago. 32GB ram, 2TB hdd, an 8 core fx cpu, and 2 rx480 8gb for around $500. Still better than anything pre-built right now. I'll probably upgrade when DDR6 or 7 comes out and I plan on making that last another 10 years.
i think that unless you are looking to upgrade short term, you probably won't have any upgrade path later on anyway. no matter what hardware you choose. because all the hardware becomes incompatible so fast (especially RAM and CPU). i think that this is especially something that we budget builders need to keep in mind, if we plan to use hardware as long as possible
@@xybersurfer oh yeah I wanted to ask people instead of just comment because that way I can get an answer quicker I know it doesn’t have to do with what you said
I actually managed to build my computer for 370 dollars and it does really good. It has the i3-8100, Radeon RX560, and 8 gb of ram. I haven't actually managed to get an ssd for it.

love the budget builds. sad more techtubers dont do them. I really feel like there is still combinations no one has thought of that have great potential
Because they know they are bullshit. You won't be able to run any new AAA game that people buy the budget build for just to find out it's ass. He has to play old games on low. fucking 4 cores what a joke.
Everything takes research.. timing.. and so much more than most are willing to do. Sigh. Thankfully people get to share your work Oz. God bless you and yours. Thanks for your time and effort and work.
@@joshua4987 nvidia should have a sharpening option in their software . I’m using Radeon image sharpening in AMD Radeon software. Pretty much makes 1080p look close to 1440p on 1440 monitor. So since I want more fps I dropped to 900p which looks close to 1080p with the sharpening. Also makes games at 1440 look good on a 4k monitor/tv. Some games are better than others but all games can be sharpened with this software.
I really appreciate looking out for all the fellow pc gamers out there with this info and build man, needed some of these tips when I was a kid haha enjoyable vids definitely got my sub
I just want to say thanks, because this video is one of the few things that helped me have the courage to try and build my own computer. I am using it to make this comment right now. Thank you for your wonderful content
Built this PC with a few slightly different parts and am very pleased. One thing i don't like are the fans which can't be controlled. They are way too bright so i just have a cloth sitting over the side of my PC to stop it from stabbing my eyes.
Thanks Oz, I’m getting my first pc, but I chose a bad time since, my dad just got cancer, so now I’m low on cash, and I have to find an extremely cheap pc, without this video I’d be screwed
This is like actually perfect. I'm tryna get something simple and affordable to start my nephew out with since he's more interested in getting into PC gaming. Thank you!
see this is what i love about not giving a crap about graphics too much, the builds that fit my needs dont cost much at all and they're widely available.
This is impressive! I mean, I am a guy who spends a lot more money on tech and computer parts, but it is so cool to see that it is possible to be a gamer with a low budget! Seriously, this is crazy cheap. I would reccomend going for a little bit more beefy gpu though, but this was cool!
I watched this video after spending 2k on building my dream computer. Honestly, no matter the price point building a computer is worth it for the experience. If anybody in the comment section is on the fence about it, JUST DO IT. Its so much fun, just trust me. (also great video, haha)
I had a similar first build when I was 16, I went to this dentist that was selling a mid-sized computer tower that had a i7-4770k I was interested in. $300 for the tower, it had a mini atx motherboard (still does) 8gb of ram, and luckily a Seasonic 550w psu 80+ bronze. Because i had little to no money, I always had the worst graphics cards. I bought a used radeon HD 4870 which allowed me to play most games in maybe 30-40 fps on low-medium settings. Then I upgraded in like 2016 to a 2gb nvidia 1030 gtx which actually packed quite a punch. I remember once upon a time i played warzone at 50-54 fps with all settings on low and was very content to actually be able to run the game... I finally upgraded to a 6gb 1660 gtx, and it handles pretty much anything you throw at it to this day. I have some videos on my channel showing how well it performed up until recently, where i bought a new computer. I still have the old one, and will probably shelf it, or wipe it for guests to use when they come over.... Ahhh good times. Gotta make do with whatcha got! As you want more, you will hold yourself to higher expectations to get where you want to be ;)

This video is so wholesome feeling. It reminds me of my dad's story of building his first PC when they first came out. He asked my grandfather for a computer, and my grandfather bought him a single component. He had to figure it out and pay for all the components himself. Now I'm doing the same thing. I'm much luckier since the component my dad bought me was a 3070ti and charged me 50$ less than retail during the shortage. I like to think it's still within the tradition though since I'm gonna be decking out my entire room. Anyhow your voice is very calming.
$300 Gaming PC not possible in UK That GPU is $335 on its own
Nah RX 460 is £70 at CEX UK all day long.
Suggest spend £30 more on ebay for R9 290 though, personally.
im selling a firepro v5900 2gb video. runs great most of AA games, for 75 pounds.
nah i manage to get a 1060-6gb for £20 basicall new gotta look around hard for bargins or people who wanna get rid of there stuff because they have a upgrade
Somehow i relate to this even though the prices of RX 460 is steadily going down, From 600$ it is.
loOool
IN 2022 here and prices are still BS, I found this video while not looking and I changed the Case for a rack but I Love IT!!!! i added my old 1tb disk drive to it as backup storage and im using it right now!!!!! LOVE it THANK YOU so Much!!!!
Probably the first build on TH-cam I've seen with a non-APU Athlon on AM4, nice to see it's a good option
this is the most relaxing gaming pc video
Today my day was pretty trash and the only good thing that happened is that I found this guy. Kudos man
It's a sad state of affairs that several year old hardware is what we are falling back to- However you have managed to make it not suck, as hard. Thanks for that, and the soundtrack .
I have been wanting to build my PC for quite some time. I'm so happy that you've been able to create the perfect video to help me get started... This has been something that I've been scared to do because of the price for quite some times. I'm just happy you made a video so easy and nice to hear. Never seen anyone ever make a video like this! Love it!
Damn ok. Legit 300 dollar PC. A lot of low budget PC builds ive seen others post revolve around them getting lucky and finding a good deal and still calling it low budget but usually a lot harder to replicate. Respect to this guy
Ozi: please pretend that this is $300 and not 5 cents.
Me: Sees a quarter 🤔
Came here to say the same thing.
came here to say the same thing lmfao
Dude, so glad to see your channel blowing up. Your production value is top-notch (the edit where you talked to yourself was awesome) and you're deserving of the TH-cam million$ coming your way. I think your my favorite tech-reviewer!
Great video. I want to upgrade my GTX1060 for a long time but card prices the last years were nutty and I wasn't willing to pay for that. And even though the prices have fallen a lot they still are not even at MRSP level for the 3000 series. They should be actually way below that right now.
I love this build and the fact it can hit 60 FPS 95% of the time is amazing and I bet running games at 900p will make games always get the consistent frame rate.
You think it'll run cyberpunk on low settings?
@@benjieskatez7094 probably not
What about fortnite?
@@jrqnz4249 yeah definitely
@@jrqnz4249 for sure at 60fps in performance mode and maybe even more
It always makes me happy seeing smite included in benchmarks
It’s been a while since i’ve seen such an amazingly done video. And such a great guy behind it.
I feel it's sad that we have kind of gone backwards. GPU's that cost less than 400s now cost 1000+
Why
@@Ok-xz1xc PROFITS
Try $2000+ in recent months 😭
Thank you so much! Perfect price point and beginning for my kids first gaming PC! I really liked that you tested out the pc after the build so we can see what it looks like!
Na its not perfect you are just poor
@@davidluna1116 what’s your budget build?
Omg all of the other videos I watched trying to build this where so exspensive and so hard to watch but you are so funny and made the video feel so short not like an eternity
8:00 aye my twitch message is there lmao. Was fun watching you build this on stream. :D
You're the best Ozi. We need more folks like yourself in this crazy world we live in. Take care, be safe. Cheers
So underrated and your voice is so calming keep up the hard work man 🥂 🙏 x
Honestly my favorite PC channel. Chill, informative, and is very creative with the builds. Keep it up!!!
I built my PC 8 years ago. 32GB ram, 2TB hdd, an 8 core fx cpu, and 2 rx480 8gb for around $500. Still better than anything pre-built right now. I'll probably upgrade when DDR6 or 7 comes out and I plan on making that last another 10 years.
is it able to run basic games like fortnite, roblox, valorant, minecraft?
your editing makes me extremely happy, cant explain it
i think that unless you are looking to upgrade short term, you probably won't have any upgrade path later on anyway. no matter what hardware you choose. because all the hardware becomes incompatible so fast (especially RAM and CPU). i think that this is especially something that we budget builders need to keep in mind, if we plan to use hardware as long as possible
bro but he didn't tell us which cpu
@@Adrenadriven7 2:21 he said it's the Athlon X4 950. but it doesn't matter to the point i was making
@@xybersurfer he’s telling us the build of course the cpu is important but thanks I guess I just missed when he said that
@@Adrenadriven7 i did not say that the cpu is not important. read what i wrote again
@@xybersurfer oh yeah I wanted to ask people instead of just comment because that way I can get an answer quicker I know it doesn’t have to do with what you said
this man shows heart towards us the budget gamers...instant sub...way to go brother...
I actually managed to build my computer for 370 dollars and it does really good. It has the i3-8100, Radeon RX560, and 8 gb of ram. I haven't actually managed to get an ssd for it.
Honestly, super great build!
With maybe a Ryzen 5 1600 (even a 1500x), some GTX 960 4GB and a 1/2TB HDD, could make a good upgrade path for this pc!
Would the ryzen 5 5600x be a better alternative for a higher budget?
@@Ortsac33 depending on the motherboard you are using, and the cpu it can support.
Either a 3600, 5600x
Yo can you play gtav with the build described in this video?
@@Ghost-vd5mc to play GTA V, you might want to find a cheap 1st or 2nd gen Ryzen (Get the best you can) and maybe get a GTX 760 minimum.
But i could be okish either
@@snitchmojo3717 so you saying i can buy this pc and add those things you listed and it will run gtav?? Forgive me bro cause I don’t know sht about computers.
love the budget builds. sad more techtubers dont do them. I really feel like there is still combinations no one has thought of that have great potential
Because they know they are bullshit. You won't be able to run any new AAA game that people buy the budget build for just to find out it's ass. He has to play old games on low. fucking 4 cores what a joke.
@@almostfamous2008 bro, its 300 dollars, calm down.
@@almostfamous2008 most games I play aren't recent triple a games, so budget builds seem fine for someone like me
This guy is so good at what he does and he think about are budget and brings so much energy
for 200 you can get 980ti's on jawa, and you can get 500gb ssd's on there for $40
Ssds are cheap rn, you can look at maybe buying a mobo on there
Damn i remember when i bought a RX 570 4GB for 80€....
This is great man. this is something i’d consider snagging just for the meantime till i can actually grab a 1000$+ pc.
Everything takes research.. timing.. and so much more than most are willing to do. Sigh.
Thankfully people get to share your work Oz.
God bless you and yours. Thanks for your time and effort and work.
Don’t sleep on 900p w Radeon image sharpening! Been playing 900p on my 32:9 1440p monitor and it’s quite good after sharpening and anti aliasing.
Can you elaborate what this is. I have a solid 1000 dollar PC but I would love image sharpening
How much was that 32:9 monitor, and how much does your PC cost?
@@JadziaDaxDS9 AOC AGON curved monitor 5210x1440 was 900bucks Amazon. PC is Ryzen 5 3600, 5500xt 8gb OCed to 2100 mhz, 16gb 3600 mhz ram, b550 mb, 650 ps, m.2 ssd, and nzxt h510 was $650
@@joshua4987 nvidia should have a sharpening option in their software . I’m using Radeon image sharpening in AMD Radeon software. Pretty much makes 1080p look close to 1440p on 1440 monitor. So since I want more fps I dropped to 900p which looks close to 1080p with the sharpening. Also makes games at 1440 look good on a 4k monitor/tv. Some games are better than others but all games can be sharpened with this software.
@@xlr8jaeger
That’s not a bad price for 32:9 monitor. Hopefully you’ll be able to get a GPU that can drive it whenever prices return to normal.
This is the first video I’ve seen of yours holy crap dude you have the perfect radio/podcast voice.
*Serious question: could I play Fortnite on this build and how many FPS could I expect?*
I really appreciate looking out for all the fellow pc gamers out there with this info and build man, needed some of these tips when I was a kid haha enjoyable vids definitely got my sub
Na you just poor
@@davidluna1116 ya mama
I just want to say thanks, because this video is one of the few things that helped me have the courage to try and build my own computer. I am using it to make this comment right now. Thank you for your wonderful content
I love your work Oz. I hope some lucky kid wins this and it inspires them.
1:45 that's 25 cents, not 5 cents.
no fucking way
Built this PC with a few slightly different parts and am very pleased. One thing i don't like are the fans which can't be controlled. They are way too bright so i just have a cloth sitting over the side of my PC to stop it from stabbing my eyes.
It's nuts to think that we could buy GTX 970s at $75~ just a year or 2 ago.
👍Thumbs Up👍 to the Video and
Jawa seems💯👏.
Just stumbled on this guy. He really impressed me and sounds like a cool guy to interact with, A good change of pace !!!
Thanks Oz, I’m getting my first pc, but I chose a bad time since, my dad just got cancer, so now I’m low on cash, and I have to find an extremely cheap pc, without this video I’d be screwed
Wow that's tough, I'm sorry about your Dad hope he pulls through.Good luck.
update if u were able to buy the pc parts? and if so, does it work?
@@mmue8515 I was, and it works great
This is like actually perfect. I'm tryna get something simple and affordable to start my nephew out with since he's more interested in getting into PC gaming. Thank you!
this dude has just gave us the real definition of budget !! nice work
idk y but i like this guy
and his editing
This dude has the voice for professional radio and streaming. Man he's good.
Great video! You have a prefect speaking voice for this (yeah, I'm envious!). Thanks
Tech Power up website is insane. So glad I found this video to learn about that website.
As a gtx 760 user myself, I can vouch it is a good choice. Although if you want to play Warzone I would recommend getting the 1050 ti or higher
Where can i find this guy so i can give him the biggest HUG! I just get the most wholesome vibes ever from him.
your voice is so calming. not into PC gaming. but think about building a home PC. thank you for the info.
see this is what i love about not giving a crap about graphics too much, the builds that fit my needs dont cost much at all and they're widely available.
I love how you talk into the mic
For those of y'all wondering the song is "I only watch it for the weather" by The Delegates❤️
This is impressive! I mean, I am a guy who spends a lot more money on tech and computer parts, but it is so cool to see that it is possible to be a gamer with a low budget! Seriously, this is crazy cheap. I would reccomend going for a little bit more beefy gpu though, but this was cool!
This guy is underrated
I watched this video after spending 2k on building my dream computer. Honestly, no matter the price point building a computer is worth it for the experience. If anybody in the comment section is on the fence about it, JUST DO IT. Its so much fun, just trust me. (also great video, haha)
this is a great option for an entry level thank you! because i went from this to a ryzen 5 5600x and a 3080 ti
I'm watching this even though I got a beefy PC just before Covid hit. It's just super wholesome.
I had a similar first build when I was 16, I went to this dentist that was selling a mid-sized computer tower that had a i7-4770k I was interested in. $300 for the tower, it had a mini atx motherboard (still does) 8gb of ram, and luckily a Seasonic 550w psu 80+ bronze. Because i had little to no money, I always had the worst graphics cards. I bought a used radeon HD 4870 which allowed me to play most games in maybe 30-40 fps on low-medium settings. Then I upgraded in like 2016 to a 2gb nvidia 1030 gtx which actually packed quite a punch. I remember once upon a time i played warzone at 50-54 fps with all settings on low and was very content to actually be able to run the game... I finally upgraded to a 6gb 1660 gtx, and it handles pretty much anything you throw at it to this day. I have some videos on my channel showing how well it performed up until recently, where i bought a new computer. I still have the old one, and will probably shelf it, or wipe it for guests to use when they come over.... Ahhh good times. Gotta make do with whatcha got! As you want more, you will hold yourself to higher expectations to get where you want to be ;)
