    DEAR LINUS:
    I'm currently using the same exact build and it has no issue at all! It runs pretty much any game but it's true that this build needs an update! Please do another ULTIMATE VALUE BUILD!

      Well it doesn't make a lot of sense to do that in all honesty. That's because most of their videos are really quite short ( < 10 min) and aren't really split up in to "sections" like this one is. Because this is longer, someone is more likely to want to reference just a little segment of it so the index system gives an advantage. But in shorter videos about just one thing, people are more likely to want to watch the whole thing anyway.

    OK im a fan of your channel Linus. But this is just BS :
    1)Motherboard is not cheap (supposed to be a budget build)
    2)Motherboard costs more than CPU (WTF),
    3)SSD for a budget build is not a good use of money(hard drive for people on a budget)
    4)Use's Intel in a budget build (AMD for budget, Intel for high-end)
    5) R7 260X ( Waste of money get an R9 270X)
    Are you trying to get newcomers to PC to waste their money?

    • @stanleymathew1234

      ***** Why? When you can go for something that is more powerful. Also the motherboard is not ideal for a budget build, too expensive.

  • @TheDeadKity
    @TheDeadKity 10 ปีที่แล้ว +83

    Intel must have paid Linus a pretty penny for this one. "If you want an upgrade to the CPU get a i3 or i5". Didn't mention AMD for a value build, disgusting.

    • @TheDeadKity
      @TheDeadKity 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Flat4Buggy I don't think Linus meant for you to buy a G3258 now and then in 6 months upgrade to an i3/5. He meant either buy the G3258, i3 or i5 now. With that in mind he could have mentioned an AMD CPU and a matching motherboard as well. I don't mind Linus doing a intel only build guide but calling it 'Ultimate' kind of implies that there isn't anything better, which in this price range there probably is.

      LovelyCrit 'Don't be such a defensive fan tard'? When did I say AMD is better or worse than intel or that intel is better or worse than AMD, that's correct never. All I said is that he should have mentioned other options instead of giving us whatever component his sponsor gives him. And for the 'defensive fan tard', that seems to be you...

    • @LovelyCrit
      @LovelyCrit 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      not at all i have both AMD and intel rigs and personally for a cheaply build like this id get a Phenom II but once again thats not the point of this video its what your options are if you want an INTEL build not what is the best options period an AMD option already exists so why even mention it.

    @DzinkyDzink 10 ปีที่แล้ว +192

    1. Z97 for value is laughable. The featured MB costs $154 where I live while a full stocked B85 are around $90-100.
    2. R7 260X has cracked down Fall 2014. It doesn't run the new games at affordable settings anymore and it will become worse later.
    3. An SSD? And one of the most expensive out there too?
    But what pissed me the most is the fact that you said that this build is not being built to be super-upgradeable at 7:33 after saying that we can easily swap the CPU out for i3 or i5 later on at 2:36. That's a straight forward hypocrisy, man.
    So in the end we have a $650 build that features both low end CPU and GPU running on a lowpower PSU !!!AT THE SAME TIME!!! No real perfomance now, no perfomance without big investements later...
    This is either a failed trolling attempt or a sponsored bullshit.

      well, you are right - althzough, I cannot let you say anything about the 430W PSU! it is MORE THAN ENOUGH for ANY CPU and single GPU!
      I understand that choice far more, than those idiots buying a 1000W PSU for their built!
      I can run my i5 2500-k with my GTX 980 with a 500 W PSU and I won't ever need more power, as long as I dont want to run 2x GPU in sli!
      all these "buy at least an 800W psu!" people do not know what they are talking about, it's simple as that!

    • @DzinkyDzink
      @DzinkyDzink 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ZeGermanGamer Aye but thing is you're running both energy effecient CPU and GPU. What if someone has an FX8300 and then wants to upgrade to R9 290? Or maybe he'd want to put a raid massive? The difference in price between 430 and say 600-650 aren't that big to sacrifice the potential.

    • @dercannabist-infoaufklarun8938
      @dercannabist-infoaufklarun8938 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nick Dzink true, as long as you do not buy a PSU bigger than 630 W.
      anything more powerful is a total waste - especially in a "cheap" build. where I come from, electricity is expensive!
      I couldn't run my PC for the 14-16 hrs/day I do, if I had to use a 1000W PSU. ;)
      that said, the 630W will definitely be enough, even for the FX8300/R9 290 combo.
      many people forget, manufactuerers print the highest possible power usage, which has little to nothing to do with reality

    • @dercannabist-infoaufklarun8938
      @dercannabist-infoaufklarun8938 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dallas Rodriguez if I were you, I wouldn't waste my time on "ultra" settings!
      1. the differences to "very high" are barely visible at_all
      2. your FPS go down in a massive way by "ultra" settings
      I switched my "Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 *extreme*", which still(!) delivered 30fps on high/very_high settings, for an "EVGA GTX 970", I finally can enjoy 60fps gaming - it IS such a big difference!
      it is better to aim for 60 fps in "medium" details, than to play in "ultra" detail with 30 fps!
      the "graphical fidelity" of 60fps juust makes more sense to me.
      also, sometimes toning down some of the graphics to medium has gigantic impact on your fps!
      I often could play with stable 30 fps on "very high" or "ultra" serrings, when I, for example, put "shadows" on "low" or "medium".
      "ultra" is just too seldom worth the massive drop in fps that particular detail levele causes.

    I've built a similar one for my sister. She chose this exact case because it's cheap and also having a USB and power button facing up was better for her needs. I've been building PC for over 2 decades now and I accumulated spares for her. We used 2nd hand parts from GPU and Power supply. The only new parts we had was mobo/CPU and RAM. We even used windows license from her old laptop to upgrade for windows 10 into her new rig so we saved a ton. All and all, we spent little over $400 with employee discount from crucial. She ended up with..
    AMD FX8350, DDR3 8GB RAM, FX R9 290, Corsair 750w PSU, that case, 2TB HDD. I think we did phenomenal job for saving and I was actually proud of it lol.

      ***** Except it's not.
      For the same cost of an SSD you could buy 2-3TB of storage drives like WD blue
      An SSD is only useful for quicker boot times, not ACTUAL processing power.
      SSD in a budget build is just fucking stupid. It's a luxury item and sure it's great to have but that's not what a budget build is about. I'd rather take a 290x over a 260 with a SSD..

    • @Calyx
      @Calyx 10 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      ***** I have a 120GB v300 SSD but as I said, this is a budget build, the SSD in the video is not nearly a budget SSD.
      Let alone; a gamer needs SPACE! Battlefield 4 is over 55GB with all DLC's installed, if you put that on a 120GB ssd you'll only have about 5GB left after windows updates. (currently have 60GB free, only got chrome, steam, etc small software installed)

    • @Mass40KGaming

      SSD is a smart choice, it makes everything about the computer in the OS faster. I'm never going back to an HDD for a boot drive. It's just not worth it.

    • @Calyx
      @Calyx 10 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      ***** I still think it's stupid to start with an SSD and I will stick to that.
      SSD's should be seen as luxury items that add no ingame performance and only serve for faster loading times(since this is a gaming-pc build.) Though once you had an SSD you will never go back, I can still see why it would make sense to get a better GPU instead of an SSD.

      Avinesh Benjamin personally, I would go with the corsair case, since it is $5 cheaper, and corsair is a more reputable and trusted brand than antec. However, cases are one of those things where you can pick one with the features and design you want. So that means if you want the antec case, go with it!

      O it is, unless your buying something like a Chromebook, or Chromebox that has Intel in it for a low price. AMD for the last 25 years has been the budget/value builders choice, as they tend to keep a socket around longer, which means not having to buy a new motherboard every 2 years just too do a CPU upgrade, and the overall cost of building with AMD is lower, which is why I've always gone with AMD for my builds.

      I would have bought an APU and a higher watt power supply so the next time I have pc building money just buy a high end gpu instead. Kaveri would definitely max out the LOL type games and still be able to play AAA games at or above console level. It's not a bad compromise when you think about being able to buy a 380x at tax time or something. Yes I'm assuming that someone building a low budget computer might be in a low tax bracket please put down the pitchforks.

      LAB Speedsoft Team I actually just found out recently that I could take off the front cover, have not got around to it though, I will when i do a deep clean before I put my new parts in, I looked online on how to do it and i read something about how there is 3 tabs on each side when you take off the side covers, he didnt show that in this video. And I will be upgrading to an MSI MPG Z390 mother board, i7-9700k with a Noctua NH-U12s cooler, and a GTX 1080, I will be running this with 4 corsair AF120 fans in the case. And I will be keeping my 750 watt power supply that I bought all those years ago.

      ***** FarCry 4 is a bad example as it pegs core 3 at close to 80% and leaves the other cores at idle. That is the only reason duel cores couldn't run it at launch and I believe there is a workaround how. BF4 might be the only game that actually needs more than 2 cores. An i3 with hyperthreading will work for a budget build.

    Strange that a very popular channel dedicated to tech tips buils and such isnt doing a very basic and consistent serials where they do this semi-annually for budget. This is what most people are here for. The other large portion is here for the expensive stuff, but they already typically know what they want/need and are looking out for aesthetics. Come on Linus.

      it says OC (overclock), and while AMD has high speeds and 4 cores, the G3258 can be overclocked to 4.7ghz! It can even go higher, and when overclocked, it can match i5s an i7s.

    why you guys ALWAYS use intel? if you want to shave a LOT of money when building a pc you can get a top AMD cpu for a LOT cheaper than the cheapest entry lvl intel and their mobos are also cheaper. and you wont even notice.

      Huehuehue it uses the same socket as most i7s so you can upgrade when you want and it goes to a higher clock speed then a fx6300
