The HUNT is REAL - USED PC Parts Hunting in Japan
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лис 2024
- A lot of people have been requesting I go on a hunt and show some of the deals that I get, so my older brother and I dedicated a weekend to going out and finding a heap of deals.... oh and did I find some deals, but the best deal of all was definitely the JarJar Binks Mug.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the Vista key!
+Tutoriale și jocuri interesante my pleasure.
Sorry to burst your bubble buts it's an OEM key so it won't work
românule
+Tutoriale și jocuri interesante Romania yes!! Cred ca e cam atat....
Wienpenn_FTW 246
ThDor45 Da, sunt român. Păcat că în România nu se găsesc asemenea chestii la asemenea prețuri.
***** I know that it's an OEM key. It's still good.
Guaranteed that I would empty my bank account if I were to set foot in some of these places.
Yup
+anson huang Hey, at least you got a Titan X at a killer deal.
+ScreenGames wow
Yeah you'd empty your bank account on outdated tech at modern tech prices.
Probably u would buy just a bunch of mostly not working crap, lul
Watching this channel become so successful makes me happy. You deserve it man. Keep up the good work. Love your videos.
ua-cam.com/video/MWAS9fL00oY/v-deo.html
Do you speak fluent Japanese? I'm really interested by all of this. You should consider a Q&A series
I love your videos
Elect zooyork Thanks man!
+OzTalksHW Not anywhere near a native, but can speak quite well. Might do a Q&A later on, just so bogged down at the moment man.
+Tech YES City gotcha. take your time
This was really awesome, you have my full support on continuing to make these kind of videos. The support doesn't contain any donations though because I am poor as shit :D
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+33ro0 Hey even i am poor.don't feel bad about it
guys can you help me out i found a guy selling 300$ for a used gtx 980 should i grab it
RISKEY!
For $300 buy a GTX 960 Ti
Dont buy used products they are not reliable
GTX 960 is just as good
Will run all the games
And worth your money
Paramesh Subramoni ok thanks is there any 960ti?
"Another one". Hey Bryan, great video. Reminiscent of your old stuff!! Much appreciated. Keep up the great work... Every time you take us on a little tour, it makes me want to visit Japan
Almost 100k! Awesome job Dude, I love your videos!
Those prices are INCREDIBLE. I live in Toronto and I rarely see prices like that on the same equipment. Thanks for that video and driving around Japan.
+adrian humphreys whats more incredible is going to the dump and going to the place they throw away computers in the last months Ive scored,3 quad cores 2 being q6600's and the other a phenom iix4 quad core all had ram from 8-4 gigs and 500gig hard drives and work good pretty uch all of them had a corrupted OS.Ive also scored like 4 core 2 duo computers and 2 athlon 64 x2 computers all had 4 gigs of ram and have them all up and running and ...it was free.Found others scored 9 in a day they didnt have ram or a hard drive but they all had their core 2 duos in them and nvidia quadro fx 380 cards in them since they were work stations and all of them had lightscribe/ dvd-DL RW drives in sata which was a good thing.seriously goto your local dump and goto the computer section.Ive gotten alot of nice usb keyboards and mouses, wifi cards, video cards.Its almost addicting going their and I got all this in the last month
Dude you saved your home big time! Austin's house caught on fire with his 480 SLI setup, I can't even imagine what two 580s in one card would do.
i thought that one of his neighbours air con caught on fire ._.
+jeffjoraj Its alright really. Because its a MARS card its a great card. Asus puts alot of work into there MARS cards. And that thing has 2 full 120mm case fans to keep those two 580 cores cool.
It was a Fermi joke guys
jeffjoraj Yea i had a feeling it might have been a joke when a read it again xD (Face palm)
Just found the channel today. I am in Japan (Kobe) as well, amazing to see another PC builder still living the dream abroad. Keep the vids coming.
at 14:35 the switches are called ALPS blue switch
+Skinnwalk3r what does it do?
rideredracer what a bully bro! imma go kill myself now!!! kid stfu and leave
no one explained what the switches do. You choose to just start yelling and talking shit. you sound real mature and at the same time call me a kid. haha the internet is hilarious
I want to see more of these... simply adore it, nostalgic atmosphere.
DUDE!!! That was awesome and interesting show!! Make more videos like these and call them a Scrap scavenger or whatever and then BOOM!!! More views and subs!!!
Vicarious Scrapyard Wars!
Used tech stores in Japan are awesome. Having to pay to throw your stuff away explains the reason for this surplus quite nicely. For $153.00, a fine haul indeed.
Great video. If you are into the whole retro rebuild aspect of used PC building - this is gold.
OMG i wish there where some stores like that in my country...
+Sasuke UchihaxD Same goes here.
you live in the US/ Canada? go to Freegeek.
Titan SixtyNine no i live in Germany, and its like the People throw there old stuff away or just Put it into the basement and Buy something new... At least where i live, because Here r no Shops for used pc's.
+Sasuke UchihaxD that's true, without eBay,there would be nothing in Germany..
LukasSkate2 ebay is great. But i cant make myself a Account because i'm Not 18.
I found a 10$ gigabyte motherboard in goodwill and a 20$ i5-2500k on eBay. Pulled 8gb ddr3 and put 4 laptop drives in raid. It’s working good.
I really appreciate this video, cause i asked about this a couple of times, great vids bro keep them coming! :D
Great video, I first came across your channel about 3 years ago when i built my first pc. I'm currently upgrading with used parts and came across your channel once again. I think I'll stick around because you've really found your niche with these used parts videos in my opinion. Keep up the great work.
Keep them coming! Really enjoyed it.
Please do more this is a great series and i think it fits your channel perfectly
Next on Tech YES City:
Bryan finds a Hello Kitty build that is better than a console and taunts his brother merciless.
Stay tuned.
ua-cam.com/video/MWAS9fL00oY/v-deo.html
cant wait to see more budget builds. Dude, you are doing the pc world a great service with these videos. Because you are opening people's eyes to that you dont need the latest and greatest to have a great pc. Just look for good deals, and you can build yourself a really good pc for half the price.
No keyboard detected! Press F1 to continue.
*Resume
BUT how can I press F1 if there is no keyboard detect.... ugh... nevermind.
heeeeeey, you get the joke...
god, this happens with my battery. it says "Battery not detected! press f1 to continue" and then it works fine...
That was a nice change. Absolutely enjoyed it.
Thanks.Great JarJar impersonation.
The Vista key thing cracked me up!
best video yet. you should make a video everytime you search for stuff. and i love watching the part of videos where you completely clean the entire pc taking apart the gpu and taking out the motherboard.
"hard-off" Japan plz... the english stuff from east asain countries is so funny
change off to on...
lmao
BinaryBoy exactly
I know a seafood restaurant in the states called Crabby Dick's, never went there to eat though.
Archer I wouldn't go there lol
Just to be that guy, the hard means Hardware. There are Hard off, Book off, House off stores all over Japan.
i got a 660ti gpu for $50 and the card turned out to be a bust !!!!! But i got i5 4440 b85 mobo and 8 gig ram for $150 and they all work flawlessly. This channel really got me into buying used pc parts and so far so good. As long as you can test the parts before hand, you can save good amount of money, yet, not sacrficing the performance by much. Thank you Brian for your hardwork and good luck to yall in hunting for parts
You plug in a $5 Psu and it works...
I plug in a $5 Psu.... i get a rick rolled and a house fire.... :/
+Arnie tech such is life my friend. Wait till you see me at the casino, I will lose 10 spins in a row, then when I am out of money my number will come up on the next spin.
Lol tru that!
+Tech YES City hi you should check out hardwareswap on reddit i just recently got a i5 3470 and a msi h77 motherboard with 8 gigs of gskill ram for 150 bucks total
hell yeah!
@@techyescity Honestly I got 120PSUs for free.
Only a few (around 3- 4) were good stuff. The rest was pretty much cheap garbage.
That NEC keyboard uses ALPS keyswitches. They are also found in the Dell AT-101W.
More
Deals!!!! I find myself saying that in your accent whenever I'm in the shop now! I wish we had hardoff/hobbyoff in the UK!
+Tech YES City I love the video..please do more videos like this.
Can you do Q&A video? My questions are.
1. What do you do with PCs when you are done.
2. Why are you in Japan?
3. Do you speak Japanese?
4. Can you do more Vlogs in other area than tech (Restaurant, shopping..etc.)
Snif, wish you were in Australia still :P
He lives in Japan so he probably speaks Japanese.
+Kevin park 1. flip em
2. My 3 year old son, got divorced
3. はい、日本語しゃべるよ。
4. If people really want to see it then I can throw in some stuff into the next vlog.
+Tech YES City love your vlogs
+Tech YES City My condolences on your 3 year old sons marriage, its unfortunate that these things tend to happen when you marry so young. My wishes are that he has a more fruitful marriage, hopefully waiting until hes at least 5 mabye 5 1/2 years old.
ur vids rock man not many ppl do the old tech build i love my dual x5690 build its crazy performance for cheap keep up the great work
lol in england i went to a used electronics store and some crappy PC with no coolers / fans / ram etc was selling for £200...
where pc world?
Same in Australia
belgium is just the same
god i need to go to japan haha
Gumtree bro. If you want used PCs check Gumtree, if you want parts only then check the CEX website.
keep these vids up, not only are pc bits good viewing but japan is cool to see from an Aussie perceptive
0:11 I hope I'm like you when I'm older :D
Awesome , that was fun seeing what it is like where you live. Parts are about the same price where we live in Missouri so it was not much from what we buy used .
A man you really should have gotten that GTX 580x2 MARS. But its your money.
More please,this is some awesome content Brian.Keep up the good work.
Such a amazing channel :)
More videos like this please! So interesting!
Me Sir, ho ho ho!
+ProtoMario wtf are you doing here
+ProtoMario but Prooto
Imraan Omar BUUUUTTT PROOOOTOOOOO... YOU WATCH THIS UA-cam CHANNEL, PROTOOOOO?
You should do more of these HUNT videos. They remind me of LGR Thrifts by lazygamereviews here on UA-cam. It's interesting how many awesome deals and good second hand hardware you can find in thrift shops and auction sites these days.
Keep up with the great work!
If something doesn't work after you test it, is it returnable?
+Wrathorn he spends like 20 and less on it he doesn't care lol
+Wrathorn No, not the stuff he bought from the "Junk" section
+Wrathorn Junk is generally no return unless you know the local manager and he usually will let you test it out on the spot.
the antec case is great, still using it, now my 3rd system is in it
I just see all the Japanese cars and just melt
I was in a sketchy-ish part of Osaka and found quite a few used PC parts stores. I found it before i was into PC building, but i did get a few sticks of DDR2 for 500 yen
This video makes me to live in Japan badly... D:
Why? Is it because you like old Windows 2k laptops like me.
I have a Windows 2k laptop which I nick name "Windows 2k destroyer." Why? Because it runs ultra fast with a Core 2 duo 1.83 (I use it on its second core which is 900mhz) with 1gb and 40gb HHD (It dual boots XP with 20gb expect I accidentally broke my XP install earlier.
Wohoo! Thanks for the Vista key! Also Japan has good deals on old PC parts!
You should definitely go back for that keyboard, those are blue alps switches. People pay shitloads of money for those switches. Literally hundreds of (american) dollars
+Jacob eMatt I probably would have got it if the switches were good, the mid part of the keyboard felt like it had some serious wear compared to the numpad, but definitely an interesting switch, though not as good as topre capacitors, have you tried them?
+Jacob eMatt i agree even in bad shape you're looking somewhere around 22$ a switch
Of all the PC tech channel I really love yours the most
I guess you live in Japan?
Yup. He lives the dream.
More vids like this plsssss!!!!! Not just like seeing tech but travelling at the same time so cool
That isnt switch, its just missing button
+JamesYT he meant the switch underneath the missing keycap, maybe blue alps? Idk
these videos are awesome, love the scavenging for cheap bits... do more please mate
11:26 and I thought my pc was dusty
+ben Kelley Thats radiation dust yo
Looked like caked up melted cheetos :P
Here in Sydney we have the North rocks PC parts market, they always have good deals.
Drinking game: 1 shot for every time he says 'bust'
what bust mean ?
***** When this guy says it's a bust he means there's nothing good.
aha thanks
***** No problem :)
now im wasted , thanks a lot.. .
Amazing video! Love Japan and I can't believe some of the deals you got. Please do more of these type of vids. Include the haggling and negotiating ha ha xD
hard off = on sale ??
lol
That's awesome. We don't have those kind of deals here in USA. We have the tech recyclers, but they charge you lots more for stuff they get for free. We do have to pay to take electronics to the dump, but there are places that take it free. Still doesn't help prices. Even online classifieds are expensive for good used tech stuff.
If you're building for shits and giggles, I suppose taking a $5 power supply off of a shelf and trusting it to deliver its rated wattage is fine. I would never, ever recommend that any one of my own subscribers do that, however. If you want something reliable for something you intend to use on a regular basis, you need a thoroughly tested and vetted unit. Not all units that are "rated 80+" and have shiny black housing with half-decent sleeving are good units.
if you cant afford to gamble 5 dollars then you have an issue.
Dude, that's awesome. Wish in my country had those stores, the 10 dollars PC like OMG.
After watching this video, I have come to the conclusion I hate you. lol. We need places like this state side, but I suppose our waist disposal is not of a high enough quality for this kind of thing.
+Anthony Pinto You mean like a pawn shop?
I loved Japan. There are a lot of little things I miss, some of them weird, like the smell of dried fish in the market... Try that here in Wal*Mart :) Very deep rooted and cultural people. Might have to go back one day.
can u speak Japanese?
+Akhtar Zamil Sirajudeen I'd like to see videos where Brian teaches us some Japanese
+Akhtar Zamil Sirajudeen I think so. he teachers English I think.
English teacher by day, Japanese teacher by night!
Thank you!
I feel special as one of the people who asked for this type of video.
I wonder what the US equivalent of the these junk stores are called.
eBay.
Great video man. I hope to see you build with these parts and more videos like this one.
Really interesting and entertaining video. Great idea , hope to watch more of these in the future.
That NEC keyboard has Blue ALPS switches
I envy you, I want that Jar Jar binks mug! Nothing like getting wasted with your good ol' pal Jar Jar.
This video is exactly what I was after, a bit like "Scrapyard wars" on Linus Tech tips. Please keep these coming dude.
that has been his main focus on his channel since he started it. he guides people into purchasing the best budget builds both new and used.
Been around since 40k subs and it's been great watching you grow, Great content! love linking it to my friends they always get a kick.
Wow amazing video, i love your work man! keep it up!!
$10 for the Antec SOLO and ASUS P5Q rig? Amazing deal. All that baby needs is a quad Xeon and a cheap 7870.
I'm loving the business model you've got going on here. I was doing something similar here in Canada for like 4 years buying underpriced components, building sick budget rigs and then selling them. I never thought to film it and make a UA-cam series, though. Genius stuff buddy.
+spire107 Unfortunately, with the popularity of Scrapyard Wars and now this channel, there are already several people in Toronto doing exactly that via Kijiji while attempting to make money on it and pay the rent with their profits. And yes, a few in Vancouver doing it already as well. Linus bought his system for the recent SYW Season 4 from such a reseller. The train hasn't completely left the "Used PC Gaming Builds 4 Cheap" station -- but it's definitely pulling out.
I'd love for this to become a series. Keep it up!
That case at 03:54 is a Sunbeam Transformer; the same case I built my first PC in. What a heavy bastard.
This is the only video I've ever seen that comes out in 1440P straight away, before 360P has even processed haha. Salute
+Pat Knows same XD
loved this one man. What i do in my home town is raid E-WASTE drop offs. I get all this stuff for free. Lots of LGA 775, and 90% of the time it works fine.
Plz more pc parts hunt again... enjoy it alot...
This was a fantastic video. Another similar one would be lovely.
You should look into buying pallets of this stuff. See if it's worth it. You can bid on just the range of gear you're after. I've always wanted to try it. It would be cool getting a pallet of quad cores and see what you end up with in the end for the price. There are a few places that do this with overstock and store returned items. Mostly kitchen gear.
Brian, you need to get sponsored by a brake fluid company!
Totally jealous of the deals you get in Japan.
Amazing Deals! 10$ for a PC?!
Now i want to live there
you inspired me to build my first all second hand pc gaming build. hope it works.
list the parts? thanks
That MARS GPU man... You can bios mod the hell out of cards from that gen!
14:25 thats a keyboard using blue alps switches, it is mechanical and an old vintage style keyboard that sells for hundreds these days. If I found one for around that price I would have bought it straight away!
Chanel keeps getting better. Keep it up man
Would love to see another one of these!
Those are alps keys on the NEC keyboard. They normally sell for $300 - $400 on ebay. You should've copped it!
This was a cool video. I would like to see more videos such as these!!
Bro I looooooved this video. Make this a series, Keep it up!
around the 15:30 mark that mouse was a logitech m-uv55a, one of the most comfortable mouses ever to come from logitech
I really wanna see more of these, cool vid!
That Jar Jar Binks mug looks glued. And I used the same thermalright NB cooler on my S939 system. Those damn things ran HOT.
Also, That H81M-E is u-ATX.
Anyway, nice content :D
I'd love to see more of these. Though one thing I would suggest, is putting the ending at the end of the video haha. I almost quit watching when you did your wrap up, just to find there was still a few more minutes of video left.
NICE! Good deals, congrats for that! The strange thing is that here in germany there arent as many deals even if you also need to pay for recycling old pcs (here you get the crazy shit at "ebay kleinanzeigen", a special ebay place where the sellers didnt need to pay for selling stuff, dont know if there are eqivalents for that in other countrys from ebay (its like craigslist). And because the people dont know what they are selling (they just want to get rid of them), you can get some pretty good deals (especially for old Hifi stuff)
I love how you making PC from junk. Pls do more, more good deals.
Awesome vid, this makes me wanna visit Japan even more!
