GAMING on a Standard Family PC.....From 1 Decade ago.

- Опубліковано 23 лют 2018
- Hello and Welcome to another Budget Builds Video where today we'll be taking a look at a PC I picked up at the bootfair for a total cost of only £2...Which equates to around $3. I picked up another Acer PC, this time the C2D Version of what was previously an AMD Acer PC from last year; they're commonoly available for as low as £10 on ebay, and even cheaper if you look locally....Chances are though you already have one somewhere.

Me:mom can we get gaming pc yet
Mom: no not untill our family pc breaks
The PC: Unbreaking IV
Take out the hard drive wires
My pc has a nvidia gt 7300 gs 256mb and it 13 years old and still works
Sorry for my english...
Leo Jeong yes
run furmark on it and let it sit, it’ll fry the graphics card
RookiesStudio install lubuntu on it for him
The framerate in Skyrim was so bad that even the frames from the "fps" are missing!
You obviously didn't notice Minecraft then.
It's like GTA V on the PS4
Woah we got a badass over here
@@mas7rreaper126 it would run better on my empty cup
@ポポ氏Mr. Popo GTA V on the PC is surprisingly well optimised. I've seen it run nicely on a 550 Ti before.
Finally a pc i can afford
BrayGamePlay lol
BrayGamePlay realeh
Realistically i just built a 400 dollar build with a ryzen 3 2200G and the only parts i dont have yet are the RAM and HDD. (Theyre being shipped tomorrow i believe.). Adding either a gtx 1060 or rx 580 when ive got the cash.
SepticHP Gota yep you were late. And yeah its got an SSD. Thats why its 400. I actually had the SSD when i typed that up. Its a Kingston A400 120GB

YES, you should buy them. Because MOST of them do support Quadcore.
Recipe:
- old 775 PC (5$)
- 8 GB DDR2 (25$)
- 771 Quadcore with modsticker (10$)
- Low end GPU (the best you can get for 35$, probably a GTX 650Ti or similar)
= Gaming PC
If you like the risk, get a scam GPU like a "750Ti" and ask for a refund, then flash it (=GTX550Ti)
Just got a 771 pc up and running out of spare parts i had very similar to what you described.
Mines running a
X5460 overclocked to 3.7ghz
GTX 480
4x2gb DDR2 800
runs pretty damn fine i must say
+Lalnable Hector that's exactly what i meant! Mine was running a X5355 @ 3GHz and a GTX650, it's an old Fujitsu PC which I gave to a good friend who plays CSGO everyday on it.
Works great!
what do you mean the 750ti is a scam gpu
@@miaugato93 at the time ebay was flooded with fake "750Ti" cards, which really are most likely a GTX550Ti with a BIOS that identified them as 750Ti.
The real 750Ti was fine, those fake cards were slow, but by refunding them, they were free.
seller: doesnt work tho why do you want to buy it? BBO: yeah right...
Ryosuke Takahashi i had the same. I bought a defective laptop and the seller told me the same. But the seller called this laptop defective and did not include a power adapter. So i bought a power adapter from ebay and it powered the laptop on perfectly! It might be that the seller's adapter was defective. I am extremely lucky cuz i bought this laptop for 250 Euro and i can sell it for 1000 euro. Specs: Alienware 15 r1, i7 4710HQ, GTX 980M 4gb, 4K Touch Screen, 256gb ssd, 1tb hdd.
Niko Bellic WTF nice bargain i would use it tho or sell it and build a awesome desktop pc
Yea you could sell it for around 1k
deja vu
i just been in this place before
Just love what can be found for next to nothing. Found i7 2600, 12 Gb DDR3 and GTX 550 Ti on a PC that was in an bin. ATX-power was bend, so MB was toasted. Going to build something out of it tho...
Love Your videos!
B00tman: Awesome find, that can still play most of today's games.
Holy heck, that's an awesome find!
woah! An i7-2600 is still really good. My brother uses an i5-2300 and it just about maxes out his GTX 970...
wow good find bro . I'm finding a pre-built pc with a 2600k now can u help me?
Help You how? You found PC with 2600k? Complete PC?
If anyone is looking for a cheap source for large HDDs look around for cable or satellite DVR boxes at second hand shops. Most come with HDDs that are a terabyte and can be had for less than $5
Yeah but those are slow af tho
@@ian1064 Good enough to be a paperweight.
James Collins yeah but I prefer gpus as paperweights
ikr
@@ian1064 At $5/each you can buy multiple and raid it, if anything you can make it a dirt cheap home file or web server using tonido.
I love the way you do your things. It went from a piece of dusty junk. To a good-looking and shiny piece of junk? I still like it and would buy it after you cleaned and tested it. XD
I know this is late af, but I've always wondered what he does with the PCs after he refurbishes them. Could probably make a bit of cash by reselling some of them.
This is basically the same hardware I started PC gaming on. I remember it used to struggle to run even basic games like Counter Strike, Minecraft, Terraria and WoW at 900p. I ended up throwing it in a tip when I upgraded to a 2500k and HD 6870. The 2500K I'm still using today because of it being such a good overclocker with a 1060 6GB.
Why the fuck would you throw a pc away? You could sell it for like 50p or give it away for free.....
@@costi2596 Highly agree with this comment in my country a system like this cost 40 bucks max.
Not too bad at all if you want to play some games from the late 90's to early 2000's. Great video once again!
HoppsTech
Crap, not worth restoring at all!
We find them all over our streets too, Core 2 Pentium 4 systems on 775 DDR 2 and 3, old family crap systems, not worth restoring.
This gen, only Striker NForce boards, some itel 4 boards, rest is ready for the junk, why keep junk!
Benchmarking old crap, why noob????????????
Pleas remove this geek channel, who needs this crap, only restore the systems that are worth restoring!!!!!!!!
lucas rem
grow up kiddo, you are free to think whatever you like, but that doesnt mean anyone else that doesnt think the same should be insulted on every comment, "noob"
lucas rem what's wrong with you man? It's fun to take a look at tech, whether it may be worth it to you or not
lucas rem Yes if you dont like these vids, then why are you even here
Can I know what this lucas rem wrote cuz he obviously deleted his comment:D
favourite channel, the videos are informative, motivative and entertaining. you talk as if you were a salesman, but the content shows how to get by as cheaply as possible and i love it. keep making these gems
I'm into that background music.🤙
Dat Simcity 2k
Mmmmm..my childhood...
LoL Ya...whenever I hear this song I remember my dad playing Simcity 2000when I was just a small kid..
Man i can't seem to find the background music when he is benchmarking the PC
I got myself a cheap second hand pc from a decade ago. It has an i7 processor, a gtx250 and 6gbs of ram. With some tweaking i'm able to run csgo on max settings at 100 to 150 fps with some spikes up to 300fps.
Francisco Gomes how much?
gtx 250? don't you mean GTS 250?
Back in the day i played Crysis 1 with one of these. I played throw the game several times i remember i was too young to notice any lag ;) Thanks for bringing back memories!
The "Can it start crysis" joke got me. Good video mate.
Drop everything! BudgetBuildsOfficial has uploaded a new video!
The 7500LE is a dreadful card, it's even worse than the "lower" end 7300GS in my benchmarks. The TurboCache is completely useless.
Put in a 8800GT, this computer will be a proper gaming machine from the era.
SuperDuty455: From Family to Gaming PC, could be interesting.
But will that system support a 125 watt GPU? You never know what these proprietary systems have in terms of PCI-e slot power allowance, and you would probably need an adapter to get a gpu molex power plug with the stock psu. I'm not familiar with Acer hands on, so I don't know if they really limit their mobos/bios for upgrades. I would suggest a more powerful but not power hungry graphics card. Maybe an HD 5670? (near 9800 GT performance for half the watts) But that depends on what's available there dirt cheap. Even a GT 220 would be a big upgrade. How much ram can the PC handle? 4 sticks of 1Gb each?
Come on ....its time to put gc card like gt1030 or gtx1050ti something like that.
And bottleneck those GPUs? No thank you. Rather stick with a 9600GT
I used to own a 9800 GTX+ XXX Edition, gave it to a friend of mine. Still plays CS:GO like a charm.
These acer cases are great - I built my pc into an nearly identical Acer Veriton case from this era I found in trash and with some minor modifications I even added fan to front to have better airflow for tower heatsink.
Love it in all your videos its sunny in England, however, weather hasn't been too bad this week. Anyways, great video man!
Cheers man, the weather has been alright.
Can it run notepad at 144p?
very funny
@@elon4090 ikr
All pc can do it
It'd be a stretch, but just maybe at its lowest settings and don't expect anything above 20fps
Reyner Prabaswara not mine
I game on my dad's Dell Dimension 8400. So basically 15 years ago. I also upgraded the ram from 1gb to 4gb.
Love your channel its nice to see what you can game on on a budget because not everyone can afford a 500 to 1000 dollar graphics card, PC etc..
Awesome video dude, love your content 8)
came for the title, stayed for the relaxing voice
Acer cases are generally quite nice. I have an Acer Aspire M1610 - still works but I swapped the guts out of the case for a Pentium II system instead. It looks super nice!
A year ago it still was my desktop pc... But i had a C2D 6750 and HD4850. Here in mu country (Perú) many people still have these configurations because the're still enough for office and web browsing. Nice vídeo bro, i enjoy your videos 😀
I had that exact pc when I was younger, I am on the biggest nostalgia trip rn
OK the third time watching this LOL, well never mind it'll still be as good as the last time.
Geez, I wish my local boot fairs would start up again. April can't come soon enough.
Gotta hang in there.
What’s a boot fair? Can you do a vlog?
a bunch of people come in their cars, and sell stuff from the trunk of their cars. reminds me vaguely of a mix of a flea market and a yard sale.
I thought you were talking about corona times and that’s why they’re closed, then I noticed the comment is from 3 years ago!
it was fun watching you struggle with the PSU. I feel like small details like that are part of the pc building process that everyone cuts out haha
I love the simcity 2000 music in the background :D
CAN IT START CRYSIS????
Can it even install Crysis more like.
I have a pentium D with a ancient Asus gpu, and it can run it at about 5 fps
Jams in the DVD drive.
J so true

You cry linus bullshit, he dropped't
Why you watch this channel, sell trash? need 3 pounds? Steam gamer, mum is not giving a new build hahahaha....
If you love cheap crap trash, do a channel too! So you never need mums credit card for steam again, buy real AAA titles hahaha, or a PS4!
Nice music! Bring back that organ!
That was some sort of remix of one of Sim City 2000 soundtrack songs
I think for the Sega Saturn
Great video ! I find it really relaxing !
Glad it is :D
I had the same PC. Bought it from Amsterdam. And now back in Bulgaria I still have it as a sleeper (kinda) with that case, an i3 and a 750ti.
Wow man, I play on a " Standard Family PC" Exactly from 1 decade ago which it means i'm not the only one who game on old standard PCs.. yay thoguh, And thanks for sharing your experience with your "Standard Family PC".
Cheers man, hope you found it helpful.
I did find it helpful, Thanks for not loving my comment again.
Ironic, he could love this comment, but not the main one.
Budget-Builds Official He could save others from death, but not himself...
Fuck this guy, restoring the local trash, old family crap! Needing 3 UK pounds hahahahaha...what is he doing?
If you need to do a channel, restore the good systems, the Nforce 780i striker build in this gen!
Forget low budget old family trash builds, not worth restoring! Only do the good builds! original Foxconn branded intel 4, some original PC, forget restoring crap!!!!!!!!!!
Fkn sick vid
Diggin' the Sim City music :) The nostalgia feel is real.
that sick simcity music during the build!
SimCity 2000 music!
How good that board smelling tho
lucas rem: Glad you enjoyed the video :)

You disgrace PC restoring, telling the steam noobs bullshit here in promoted items!
Stop posting crap, learn noobs what do do, learn them skills! They are not needing this channel!

I feel like you wear sunglasses old timey clothes and have those huge boomboxes on your shoulder when you go to the boot fair. Exdee
Gaming XP XD lmao not xdee lel
Bros Power ECKS DEE you don’t know that people spell XD differently right
Death Wraith I use XD the exdee was a joke
You should start using Rainbow Six: Siege as a bench marking tool, it's getting more and more popular and it does have a built-in bench marking tool available.
Haha everything is fun in the vid, the SimCity music, the water on the case and drying is in the back yard. Fun fact: the Acer T180 was my first computer and I still have the case laying around. Keep up the good vids and I will keep you supported on Patreon in the meantime
Cheers man, much appreciated.
MY good old Core2 Quad (i9300) is running great as a secondary PC with a GTX 550ti 1gb). I use on the side for instant messaging, light gaming, and mostly UA-cam and to watch streams on. I took it apart the other day and cleaned up all the dust inside and now it runs like a champ.
Can youu make a video of you popping a high end graphics card in an old family pc?
BrokeGamer well bottleneck city
With some standard boards such as that, they tend to not support newer hardware. It probably would just not recognize it, and ignore it and switch to integrated graphics if there are any there.
gpus are not plug and play there are compatibility issues
How about a decent card of that era instead of a new monster.
does that DVD drive still work after you put water over it?😂😂 BTW, great video! love your channel!!!
Tobias van der Voorden: Yes
Budget-Builds Official okay, nice😀
Tobias van der Voorden
You love steam, on trash systems, hahahaha, how do you pay steam, mum does that? Pirate bay Titles?
Come to Amsterdam, even old i5 systems on the streets, trash systems everywhere, nobody needs them, for Free!
I pick them for parts only, restoring ONLY the old systems that need restring, trash = trash!
DVD? why did old people, and still use that, USB was already there, still needing disks hahaha. Old people needed some proof, a disk, a box!
You need to find better channels, how to restore PC that are worth restoring, read more, stop watching promoted items here.
What?
there was this guy that was just randomly hating in a lot of the comments
Not seen this one for a while. Only tech channel where I watch the videos more than once.
Reminds me of my grandmothers PC i used to play on when i was around 10. had a Sempron, 512mb ram and onboard Radeon x200 graphics. Also, I'm Miss Frosty on your server.
Skyrim looks more like daggerfall
2 pounds is too much for me.
well get saving then lol
2 pounds of cash is more than enough to buy a good pc!
I can afford about 50 of these
Nah bro that’s still too much for me though.. It’s gotta be £1.99 at the max.

Nice touch with the SimCity 2000 music.
I love when youtube recommends me actual youtube channels like this one :D
Good video. Please add games that systems could play and are more time specific to era of the comuter & it's parts, like DOOM 3 or F.E.A.R,etc ( I realize the 7500 LE card is a hurtin' video card.)
We know it can handle games like that so I prefer to test some newer benchmarks that other channels might now have. But I may add some more older titles to my testing.
Maybe even stuff like Warcraft 3
Noice it can play half life 2 that means it's good
Roboguy52 it's a 13 year old game though
Half Life 2 actually came out before this PC was made
RWL2012 but it still looks sexyyyyyyy
The Delboy of PC repairs, love it!
this video helped me as i got a old Compaq pc in a charity shop it said it was empty i looked inside it was all there but thick dust in the cpu fan and on the mother board i done what you done with aftershave to clean the mother bored it worked i got a brush and spun it around in the fan that made all the dust come out it took 30 mins to clean it but after finally paid off i put the pc back together and turned the pc on it had a issue the hard-drive was not connected as the leads were dodge i got my frenid round he repair it and we restarted the pc it cam up with system error cant load system its because of windows 7 has broken on it and lukly my other frenid said they get me a windows 7 for the computer hopefully i can get it to work not bad for £10 this video really helped as that pc was my first second hand pc i got this video is brilliant as you made it sound easy to do it thnkyou for making the video
If it has a OEM NVidia card inside, why does it have a ATI sticker on the case?
It uses an ATI Chipset meaning it has an ATI Radeon X200 integrated onto the motherboard.
Budget-Builds Official Would that be better than the Nvidia? :-)
@@johnfrancisdoe1563 yes it is
#notificationsquad like for the note squad
I still use that exact case in a build at my Grandmas, it was the family PC from about 10-12 years ago and I've just upgraded the parts over the years.
This system reminds me of my dad's older PC from 2007,an Acer Aspire micro ATX tower, featuring Windows Vista too, memories...

Yo bro, congrats with the 100k subs!!!
I'm guessing the graphics card is the main problem here? Cos your 2.4GHz Pentium 4 & Radeon X800 Pro combo could actually run Crysis unlike this
Most likely

Look up "optifine." I think it'll work 👍
with it about 3 fps and standing still 20 fps
Gintare Kuku What pc do you have? Cuz it must be old
Lil Rose just got a new pc (pubg low 720p 30-60 fps)
"New"
This is really neat. I once went to a recycling center and got a q6600 with 8800gt, 2 gb ram but not hard disk for free. Guess they had no idea what treasure they had
I was jamming out to the Sim City 3000 music!
I'm not sure i'd consider Minecraft at 900p and 30fps "playable" lol
How is 30 fps not playable? Its not as good as 60, but you can certainly "play" a game at it.
@@Adventurer32 at 900p? Who is going to subject themselves to that in 2018?
Chidren with really inexpensive PCs? I myself had a really bad PC up until a couple of months ago.
@@braed6202 dude 900p is better than the 768p resolution I play most games at on my i5 dual core and igpu
Probably plays fortnight 1fpd (frames per decade)
NaN FPS actually.
Because it'll probably be an imaginary number.
CatSay Interesting...
Upgrade the RAM and give it a GT 1030, and BSEL mod the Core 2 Duo and you may be able to hit 30 FPS in Fortnite with this PC.

yup
Nobody gives a sh*t.
Not really I've seen it twice before it was posted.
Kudos for Sim City backing track...
It's amazing how far we've come in terms of old hardware being usable. Nowadays, a 10 year old pc such as an optiplex, precision, or hp z series could still be used for medium duty gaming with their i7s and xeons!
LOL, I love the SimCity2000 music in the background :D
Wow that SimCity 2K music brings back memories.
I have no idea what you are talking about but your still entertaining me
Its cool what you can find at a boot fare these days.
That CPU cooler cone reminds me of the cones that dogs get put on their heads!
I came for the budget PC content, I stayed for the Sim City 2000 music. Have a like.
I don’t know why but I always love these pc or laptops from that time. old and slow. Mainly just the looks and the os, especially vista for some reason.
you could make a basic NAS/server out of it with all those drive bays! x ps: big fan of ur channel, keep up the good work bro
Finally, a Gaming PC that fits in my budget!
Cleaning fixed the motherboard! Brilliant!
I still have one of these.
Mine's a relatively high end gamer from the era.
E8400, nV 9600GT, 4GB RAM (was 8 but a stick failed).
great video another success road to 100k :D
Cheers man
This guy's "boot fairs" are legendary.
Even more interesting is what you can do with these PCs nowadays in terms of upgrading and expansions. My old setup was from the same era; it served me for more than 10 years until I finally decided it was time to move on. A good old Gigabyte P35DS3R, oc'ed Q6600 and eight gigabytes of RAM paired with at least 750ti or latest 1550ti will easily run any modern game in 1080p, maxed out with totally playable framerates. Not only that, but both streaming and high quality recording will be totally possible (especially if you're going to use nvidia encoders to do all the dirty work). Add a decent SSD and you can really breathe life to those old workstations. This is really possible under a tight budget, especially if you're going to hunt for used components.
thank you for saving this pc
Wow the Sim City 2000 soundtrack....talking about unexpected background music.
who agrees that this channel is the better, more budget obeying, version of Linux Tech Tips
Did I just see the Oasis subreddit? I now love this channel.
Thanks for the USD comparisons
is that simcity 2000 music i hear.....throwback!!! :)
