@M_Hall34 I'm 8n u.s and no micro center in my state and we have no computer store ware I'm at and micro center don't ship gpu cpu basicly anything that cost 50$ or more thay won't ship so I have to relay on over price parts at Walmart or best buy I alredy had to pay a 1000$ for a 3060 graphic card that was way over price
We have companies like SCAN in the UK which is almost the same thing to be fair. In US they dont have a ton of places like us in the UK, theres overclockers, SCAN, CCL and Ebuyer to name a few.
I get that this PC is more “balanced” but I don’t feel most people look for balance, they wanna maximize their budget. The big SSD is a reasonable choice, but spending so much on a case feels like a more emotional choice. Since AM5 has a long life ahead of it, I woulda said get a 7600 bundle instead and plan to upgrade down the line. It’s what I did when I bought my 5600 system years back, finally upgraded to a 5700x3D and I’m going to try and hold out until AM6 before upgrading platforms, at least that’s the plan unless intel does something notable in the cpu market in a few years.
The card has been out of stock everywhere. Micro Center, Newegg, B&H, Best Buy. I pre-ordered the Asrock version but it doesn't arrive until some time in January.
I'm lucky enough to live decently close to a Micro Center. It's where I go whenever I need to build or rebuild a PC. They're always great to deal with and the people working there have always been very friendly. I never forget that they are TECHNICALLY sales people and are gonna try and upsell me on things (that's just the nature of the job), but they usually aren't extremely pushy about it, which I very much appreciate.
I don't think these cases with rgb fans specially with that price range i spent 2 hours today to find something nice glass case that at least comes with 3rgb fan there was none under 100$. They were close to 150 with no rgb fans plus you have add extra at least 4 fans which increases the cost even more.
@inconspicuous45 I even went to Microcenter to see how much it would be to build something similar and the guy said min$1300. He said to get that and upgrade RAM and SSD. I'm glad I got it now that' it's out of stock.
"This is the PC build that people will actually build". It's honestly my favourite kind of content on this channel and why I originally subbed years ago 🙌
We need more videos like this. $1,000, $1,500 and 2,000 PC that offers good insights into why specific parts were chosen. Hard to find videos like this now to actually build a usable, realistic PC.
3:30 you really did not need to put in a Samsung 990 in there, no need for an enthusiast tier SSD, could have saved like 50 going on a cheaper team group SSD and use it for fans, psu or a better case and still got on just fine with 2tb tbh.
The only problem is when you don't have a Microcenter near you. I used to live in Columbus, and perused their multiple stores there. But I moved down to Florida, and now the closest Microcenter is Atlanta or Miami, both a days drive. And they don't do mail order. And I get the side eye when I give them my phone number when I am in a store, and it comes up in Florida...
I just moved to Atlanta area from north Georgia and microcenter is right around the corner. I was just driving around and saw it and was like "oh shit, its microcenter"
Recently decided to go all out and build a new pc, got a 4070ti and 12th gen i7, not the best cpu but for 180$ I think it's a steal. Total was 1500$ and it's nice to get 200+ fps in games but I find I have nothing to play and my old 1080 was still decent.
This build makes me feel really good about my legion laptop I got a couple of years back. 12th gen i7, 3070 ti, upgraded ram to 32 GB and upgraded storage to 2.5 TB and all for about $1300 USD (thanks Austin for introducing me to VIP outlet)
Honestly this is the kind of video I feel like I've been needing, thanks guys! Also recently, I've been unsure on the different variants of the same card, and the affected performance. For example smaller details like the 3050 6GB vs 3050 8GB. Same main card with different memory values. Over here in the UK we have PCSPECIALIST that can fine tune but I'd be looking at £1,000 as my budget in future. For context my goal is VR streaming on Twitch. Anyways hope y'all have a good xmas, sorry I haven't commented recently, life has been rather hectic!
I just upgraded my ryzen 5 2600x and RX580 card to the ryzen 5 7600x3d and intel arc b580 literally last week. It’s been great so far, major upgrade and no complaints. Intel has been pushing out driver updates weekly if not more frequently.
I have that exact case, and it's been amazing. Super quiet and plenty of airflow and cable straps. I don't use the 4th fan because it hits the USB cable header and crushes the wires. 😅😅
Just got a bundle deal from Microcenter a couple Months ago and finally moved from my old 4790k to a 12900k which came with a z790MB/48gb ddr5 for $410- same build as J built when you did the colab, but with 48gb 5200 instead of the 32gb 6000- need the capacity for production but the gamer in me really wanted that faster memory! I could not be happier. Now I just need to upgrade my old migrated 5700xt- at least my 1% lows are now pretty much gone! The old rig did do a pretty good job gaming though. I won at least one Life-Lottery: 15 Minutes away from a Microcenter! Nice Vid :D
@@ditroia2777 or better yet build most of the PC now taking advantage of holiday sales and then just using your integrated graphics or your old graphics card for now.
I bought a PC bundle on black Friday. Came with an amd 5 7600 ,4060 GPU, added 2 2tb Samsung ssd and upgraded to 32mb ram plus the 2yr warranty just past 1k I wanted to use my 65 nanocell LG TV, I couldn't cause I can't watch Austin on UA-cam as I play farming sim22. So i got lucky with a black Friday sale gaming monitor.
@popbogdanemilian1 Ya, I thought about upgrading but it's a bundle deal I bought and currently pretty happy overall. I love max setting everything and see how well it does. So far so good, been happy with what I got and that's what matters. Summer sales will be here soon, more for audio and curious about the Sony xm6 earbuds. If there's a bundle kit for the R7 or R9 at a god price, I might jump on that. It'll give me more time to play around with what I got since I bought it black Friday this year.
I spent the same amount on my build and I got a 7800xt 7600x 7,400 speed 1tb ssd 32gb 6,000 speed ram. I’m easily getting 240+ fps in 1440p high setting Fortnite.
I recently built a PC for about $1300 CAD ($900 USD) and I'm really happy with the performance, I'm not sure what fps I'm getting but Red dead 2 plays buttery smooth - cool master mATX case - b650m motherboard - 32 GB DDR5 - Ryzen 5 8500G - Radeon 7600XT 16 GB - 1 tb m.2
Ive been ITCHING to build a Detroit Lions black jersey theme build... That GPU is the PERFECT blue. What a deal from microcenter too. 32 ram with a kickA board... nice. Way to snipe that out.
Shopping around on used markets I built a R5 5600x with a 5700xt in a fractal case for 400ish. Won’t beat this system but it isn’t $600 weaker. And it looks better.
I was really torn planning a microcenter build this week. First started with the 7600x bundle for $300, but eventually went for the 9600x for an extra $30. Needing to buy an extra stick of ram then puts it at the price point where the 7600x3d becomes enticing, but I decided to save the money for a future GPU. $650 out the door at micro center, plus ~$50 for a cooler and some fans from Amazon. Maybe an intel GPU when they can be found anywhere…
I get it, for the sponsor, but no way I would pay $1k for this. maybe a starter pc, but you can cut corners and get it for much cheaper if you shop around.
whats not good about this? I find it to be great especially with the bundle. I only disliked the case and psu that seems shitty. 7600 non-x3d is as good as 5700x3d btw, so even better cpu than going am4 now. WTB microcenter globally in all countries :d
@@Djuntas its bad. In my country you can get for 1K usd a build with R5 7600, 32GB ram, RX 7800XT, that will whip the shit out of the A580, like double the FPS (i hope the 1k in the video isnt without tax, im from eu so the 1k i talk about is with tax). I dont know if its sponsor, but I feel like austin just dont know much about PCs in particular...
@@DanielNGinaFN he knows a lot yet he builds a A580 system for 1k Usd ? sure... i have seen a lot of austin dealing with PCs and he just doesnt know as much.. but he know about other stuff im not trying to hate on him... But buying expensive case and more storage is bs... You can alway buy more storage, but gpu you gotta swap as a whole... the system is just bad... If he could do 7800 XT i dont see why he didnt, because double the performance is far better than expensive case or more storage lol. 1TB for start is plenty and you can buy another disk in few months...
I would set my budget more for the PSU than the case as it'll be useful to have a good PSU that'll be more efficient, modular, and ready to go for any future hardware upgrades.
I would love to see a realistic productivity computer or server build. Would love to get insights for possible virtualization and or standard application productivity computers
The 7600x3d with its Microcenter exclusive and bundle throws a wrench into this whole build. your either going to have to cut corners and have a lesser PC build, or spend a bit more to equal this build when buying individual parts. We all don't live close to a Microcenter..so this build guide is kind of not great for a lot of us I feel...
You should have spent 40-50% of the budget on the GPU because that’s usually where the money will be best spent. So about 400-450$ For the GPU and you would be at a very good spot
When I tell my friends that you don't need to spend 2k plus to have a good gaming rig, they think I'm joking. They need to watch this video and see that you can build a good machine for around 1k.
4:15 Wait a second... The 80 Plus Gold version of that exact same 650W PSU is $75 at full price. 🤷♂ I just built this on Wednesday: Ryzen 5 9600x (waiting for my Asrock B570) ASUS TUF B650M-Plus Wi-Fi 16GB G.Skill Flare X5 Powerspec 650W semi-mod. 80 plus gold Lian Li Lancool 206 Hyper 212 Spectrum V3 (Reused my old storage for a combined 1.5TB nvme gen 4 and 2TB HDD in RAID 0) TOTAL almost exactly $800 after tax. Now that I'm thoroughly content and definitely not going to regret this, can I get your opinion Austin?
hey man i have 1k for a new pc build, friend "i got you, buy this", cashier "ok after taxes that will be $1103.23", me - "i only have 1k i told you that before we came here"...
looking into building aa ne pc early next year add i might use this as a base just gonna go with more storage add mabey a different case.. just need it to run 1080p too work with my tv sense it works great and i dont plan on upgrading it.
Part of me feels like you need to be more realistic with the pricing. What you forgot: Windows 11 Mouse Keyboard Monitor And TAX This build would be over 1130 without the stuff included above. Everything your looking closer to 1500 for nicer equipment.
I dont think anyone has thermal paste in their stock if their a new PC builder? Nonetheless great build! Couldve cheaped out on the case rather than the PSU but still great
LOL! I just built a computer with this exact spec. Well, I'm still trying to get the B580, but that's the card I'm planning to get. Got the exact same Microcenter bundle, but I do kind of regret it. I wish I spent $50 more for the upgraded motherboard. It's only a small nitpick, but the upgraded motherboard bundle has an Intel 2.5gb network chip instead of the Realtek one from the normal bundle. I do a lot of networking run multiple servers and VPN a lot the Realtek has been a little disappointing for me. Not a use case for most people though.
05:20 In Norway you don't have to do calculations to figure out tax, what's on the price tag is what you pay because it includes the tax. I love it here :P
@@ej_tech And even then, different towns and cities have different sales tax rates. Where I live in California, we're at the base 7.25% tax rate. The town next to where I live charges 8.25% sales tax and Sacramento charges 8.75%.

I'm not going to lie I thought the Intel card was going to be cheesy, but it looked low key cool in that case.
A thousand dollar build, if you ignore the $30 overshot, the taxes, the os
Shame the pc case front glass was damaged - great build!
this is like an ad for a microcenter build
You should have spent 40-50% of the budget on the GPU because that’s usually where the money will be best spent. So about 400-450$ For the GPU and you would be at a very good spot
Great video 😁
I’d love to see one of these videos where the tax counts. Cause the rest of us actually have to take that into consideration.
I wish i knew a Frieren case existed. I want it!
great video, team 🎉
When I tell my friends that you don't need to spend 2k plus to have a good gaming rig, they think I'm joking. They need to watch this video and see that you can build a good machine for around 1k.
4:15 Wait a second... The 80 Plus Gold version of that exact same 650W PSU is $75 at full price. 🤷♂
I just built this on Wednesday:
Ryzen 5 9600x
(waiting for my Asrock B570)
ASUS TUF B650M-Plus Wi-Fi
16GB G.Skill Flare X5
Powerspec 650W semi-mod. 80 plus gold
Lian Li Lancool 206
Hyper 212 Spectrum V3
(Reused my old storage for a combined 1.5TB nvme gen 4 and 2TB HDD in RAID 0)
TOTAL almost exactly $800 after tax.
Now that I'm thoroughly content and definitely not going to regret this, can I get your opinion Austin?
I have a microcenter and it’s the best store in the world hands down lol 😂
have you heard about the noise surrounding honey?
Back to his roots before every video was something something Mystery Tech
hey man i have 1k for a new pc build, friend "i got you, buy this", cashier "ok after taxes that will be $1103.23", me - "i only have 1k i told you that before we came here"...
they have the magic of a calculator.... while holding a phone that comes with a calculator
looking into building aa ne pc early next year add i might use this as a base just gonna go with more storage add mabey a different case.. just need it to run 1080p too work with my tv sense it works great and i dont plan on upgrading it.
you should use marvel rivals to benchmark, I see varied results here and there
we need a compilation of Austin being bad at games for the new year
must be nice living near a Microcenter.
Great build what more could you ask for
yooo that Frieren case :O
I think a better psu with a cheaper case would be better
Part of me feels like you need to be more realistic with the pricing.
What you forgot:
Windows 11
Mouse
Keyboard
Monitor
And TAX
This build would be over 1130 without the stuff included above. Everything your looking closer to 1500 for nicer equipment.
I dont think anyone has thermal paste in their stock if their a new PC builder? Nonetheless great build! Couldve cheaped out on the case rather than the PSU but still great
LOL! I just built a computer with this exact spec. Well, I'm still trying to get the B580, but that's the card I'm planning to get. Got the exact same Microcenter bundle, but I do kind of regret it. I wish I spent $50 more for the upgraded motherboard. It's only a small nitpick, but the upgraded motherboard bundle has an Intel 2.5gb network chip instead of the Realtek one from the normal bundle. I do a lot of networking run multiple servers and VPN a lot the Realtek has been a little disappointing for me. Not a use case for most people though.
05:20 In Norway you don't have to do calculations to figure out tax, what's on the price tag is what you pay because it includes the tax. I love it here :P
I think its most countries in Europe, atleast in Finland too
Different US states, different sales tax. Oregon for example is zero sales tax, while in New York is 8.875%.
thats all EU countries.
@@ej_tech And even then, different towns and cities have different sales tax rates. Where I live in California, we're at the base 7.25% tax rate. The town next to where I live charges 8.25% sales tax and Sacramento charges 8.75%.
Norway has less maths to do, but you're paying 25% tax instead of 8%. I'd rather have the savings
for 1000 bucks its still a better option then a ps5 pro
If I spent $1030 and only walked away with a sparkle GPU, I would cry.
For the love of god do not follow this build guide, this guy has no clue.
Wish there was a micro center near me. Closest one is a 10 hour drive
The reasonably priced no regrets pc build.
someone needs to tell Micro center they need to expand their stores World Wide
like bro...cmon. Shipping stuff and having to deal with damaged goods aint sweet
13:06 those benchmark don't seem right. 62 fps on 4k high how?
Ark has got the juice
