watching your videos with spotify on is a perfect match cuz your videos dont have background music and my music is running in the background with makes a perfect match haha
love your vids my boi .. keep it up. i always clean used gpus a bit b4 i test .. after testing i always do a thermal repaste and deep clean also when you paint the gpus , make sure your using high heat paint
what wifi adapter do yall use for builds? I typically use motherboards with wifi but at times there's great deals for motherboards with no wifi and most pcs i flip are with wifi. Something that isn't crap and can provide good signal but doesn't break the bank. Thanks in advanced.
😒 recently ive had bad luck with TPLink and their cards that use Realtek wifi cards. I recently switched over to buying used wifi cards that use either Intel wifi cards OR Qualcomm Atheros wifi cards OR Ralink wifi cards, and so far all three of those brands seem to be holding up. Dont forget if you want bluetooth as well those cost a bit more money and make sure they give you the usb cable with the card cause you need the cable for bluetooth.
I had an easy swap test bench for PC parts. I may give it up, the arthritis in my hands, back and feet can no longer hold up to it more than 10 minutes at a time.
ask the buyer but usually they just expecting a clean install that has nothing on it but the graphics driver, they could be paranoid and they want to factory reset the windows install themselves. Then you have others that would love to have it all done for them, plug n play including a small drm free game library thats ready to launch with all the video game shortcuts already on the desktop and ready to go ✌😏👾🎮⛵
hey man just wanted to say i've stumbled upon your channel a few months ago and have been loving the content especially this series id love to get into flipping pcs and your vids have really helped, but do you have any tips for someone just starting? i currently have a cyber power prebuilt and i'm not sure if i should upgrade parts or buy a new system if there's any way i could contact you and you could help me that would be awesome and if i end up buying a new system i'll probably buy from you since i've seen your content and love all the builds you really put time and effort into each and every build love the work and keep up the grind❤
🙂 NO, most, most case manufacturers now give you a simple cheap argb hub mounted to the back of the case, because alot of these really cheap low spec cases are being used for potato low spec mother boards that dont have argb on the mother board.
🙂 agree, i dont request refunds if the board eventually breaks in my posession which happens on occassion, electronics are hit and miss, i dont like to take advantage of buyers or refund policys unless i really have to, id rather just take the hit, the only time i will request a refund is if from day one i can't get the board or card to post or its acting really weird or unstable from day one and it never clears up. In that case I request either a full refund or at the very least a partial refund.
sure, the platforms all over the world are exploiting sellers, they take too much of the pie, plus when theres a dispute they shaft the sellers, samething is happening with video game sales
I recently picked up an insane deal for my dads new pc recently, it cost 197 usd and it had: Ryzen 5 5600x Asrock A520M-itx/ac 16GB 3200mhz Ram (Forgot the brand) Scythe Big Shuriken with a Noctua NF-A12x25 (newer version, but not g2) Silverstone RVZ03 And probably the craziest part of all, Corsair SF600 V2 (as in the 80+ platinum one)
correct, also called The Holiday Season or The Cuffing Season, buy parts and assemble during the summer, only sell during the holiday season. Your operation should be run just like Santas Workshop up at the North Pole. Do the same. ✌😏🎅🎅☃
Yo Elija I’ve been a fan since you had long hair but im trying to ask Can you build a pc with ⬇️ Ryzen 5600x Radeon 6750xt Any case Any ram Any cooler Any 850 psu Any mobo And ssd
A lot of people don't realize, by watching, that the overwhelming majority of what Elijah does has nothing to do with building computers. His entire procurement process, and his knowledge of playing the market is a skill that most people just don't have, and will never have... Building computers is probably only 2-4% of the total time he is spending.
I love your content! just started PC-flipping and my asrock b450m mobo doesn't have rgb connectors. Should I buy rgb-usb2.0 adapter, I mean is RGB that necessary for flipping pc? #PFQ
open air test bench is ideal, plug and play and see if it works as soon as you get the package, request a return if it doesnt work asap cause the return window might be only a few days
I’m building a pc to flip, it has a 1060 6gb Ryzen 5 2600 and 16gb ram and the total is gonna come out to around 200, how much do you think I should sell it for
🙂 i agree, thats Shady AF, the only return that i could see being justifiable is if you purchased it from Microcenter or some other major retailer store like directly from Amazon or Newegg, but tiny mom and pop sellers I would not do that to them.
bro you inspired me to start flipping pc's myself im 14 so i cant get a job but i can start this im just starting my first build 1070 with a i5 6600 16gb of ram and a 500gb ssd im hopeing to sell it for about 500-600
#PFQ How do you have all the games already downloaded and whats the procces also can you make a dedicated video on how you test games and instal and them and benchmark pls!
🙂 its called a 3.5 inch Hard Drive, they come in large capacities, just to give you an idea 1000 video games is somewhere between 6TB to 8TB, when you download the game you simply use the game launcher and go to settings and create a folder on the hard drive, most video games will play just fine off of of an old fashion hard drive, of course you can also add SSD and run some of the games off of them. In the game launcher you usually can setup multiple hard drives. I know in Steam you can definitely do that. So far I have over 3000 pc video games across multiple store fronts. And for some of my other games I had to Sail the High Seas for them. And last I have a small collection of games on CD's from way back in the 90s. To test the game you simply install it, then you install and run MSI Afterburner, you then launch the video game and you should see Afterburner layover on top of it, play the games and you can monitor a bunch of readings in real time. I do it all the time.

Just flipped my first PC and this guy started it! Thanks so much, I made a fat 200$ profit.
13:00 it’s probably best to put the fan at the back as intake and the 2 at the top as exhaust as it can take in dust = crusty pc

The turn table is genius
Man...we are all buying that PADO case from Ali express hahah. you, me, nerd on a budget, zack, etc. hilarious
You should try building and selling a SFF build. It's time consuming but some people are interested in smaller pcs that aren't laptops.
watching your videos with spotify on is a perfect match cuz your videos dont have background music and my music is running in the background with makes a perfect match haha
Good one. Jeans GPU was a new packing method
love your vids my boi .. keep it up. i always clean used gpus a bit b4 i test ..
after testing i always do a thermal repaste and deep clean
also when you paint the gpus , make sure your using high heat paint
13:38 the capacitor on the top right of the motherboard near his thumb looks like it's snapped off
Big fan of these longer videos! Keep it ip
I just sold my first pc thanks to you and your discord much appreciated
hey, how do you got about keeping inventory for all your items?
YAYYY ELIJAH POSTED YOU ALWAYS MAKE MY DAY
wish i could come to the staes. 1660 supers are around $120 here, so envious of you guys
always mark parts with something hidden so you know if they replace it and take the working part
I would use the top fans as exhaust and the rear fans as intake
It's usually the other way around but it can depend on the situation where your placing it

Do you need an rgb header if you have the hub from the fans?
🙂 NO, most, most case manufacturers now give you a simple cheap argb hub mounted to the back of the case, because alot of these really cheap low spec cases are being used for potato low spec mother boards that dont have argb on the mother board.
Another episode lets goooo
19:00 you say your returning the motherboard that worked before it was shipped got damaged and want a refund from the buyer? thats kinda messed up.
agree =)
At 09:15 he says the graphic cards hits 82 and after he changes the thermal paste, he says it runs much cooler but the temps are at 79c.😂
🙂 he's using Furmark, 79 is OK, im assuming he's picked the highest settings, but normally no video game is going to stress that card like that
I got to say that motherboard wasn't the seller fault. It worked when you got it. Think you should refund them the money.
🙂 agree, i dont request refunds if the board eventually breaks in my posession which happens on occassion, electronics are hit and miss, i dont like to take advantage of buyers or refund policys unless i really have to, id rather just take the hit, the only time i will request a refund is if from day one i can't get the board or card to post or its acting really weird or unstable from day one and it never clears up.

Oh no, another PC returned. Glad you were able to get it fixed up quickly.

Yo Elijah, I just built my first pc with a 5600x and 3060 for 580€ this channel gave me a lot of inspiration what do you suggest i sell it for?
580€ is Way to much for a 3060 pc i would honestly suggest trying to sell it at 580 before it loses value
@@bertramnissen6325nope he got that for a good price idk what u mean
It’s 580€ considering shipping and scam protection without considering those it’s closer to 550€
could of got a 4060 atleast , although people say the 12gb vram 3060 is better value the 4060 is still technically better
