    I have a 4th gen system that consists of Asrock Z97 Extreme 6 with a Samsung 980 NVME, the I7-4790K, 16GB Corsair 1600, an XFX RX 580 8GB, a 2TB HDD plus 1TB EVO SSD and a XPG Core Reactor 650 Gold PSU inside a Thermaltake Versa H35 case. I purchased all the parts for around $262 2 years ago and added blue cable extensions to match the mobo color and ARGB Hub with controller and fans. It was a fun build with my grandson and runs great on Windows 10 and holds up fine for the games we played on it. These older systems are still holding up and very capable albeit with proper game settings and perfect for a first time PC builder to start out with. If the rumors of coming high tariffs and prices are true, these older parts may be more in demand and fetch higher resale prices. I appreciate this channel and the great content and thanks for introducing me to JAWA.

      🙂 alot of older pc parts as long as they are still functioning are never worth Zero, most used retail motherboards if they are functioning settle around 50 bucks no matter what generation. Just look at AMD FX CPUs, the upper tier cpu's are going for 60 to 100 dollars still. Some people value nostalgia over performance.

      It's a very old platform, even 4 years ago when I built my old i7 9700 GTX 1080ti rig , this was considered to old to game on AAA tittles, but for esports gaming this is not a bad way to live, even currently at 1080p. I built a budget system this year, sorta with the same mindset, but more geared at 1440p gaming. for $90 I got the Ryzen 5 5600X a 6 core 12 thread CPU clocked at 4.7 GHz used on eBay and I pulled the RTX 3060ti out of my old PC. Now you might be asking, what happened to the 1080ti? I sold that during the GPU shortages and made a good amount of money for an older card and I banked the profit and that's what I'm using some of now or have used to upgrade things. The MSI 3060ti Gaming X I got on launch day for $400 out of pocket at Microcenters and I still own it, it's a one owner card. I got 32 Team Group DDR4 3600 for $46 on Amazon black Friday sale and for a MOBO for I got a Gigabyte B550 gaming X v2 from Amazon warehouse,, it has a damaged box but it was like new $79, my storage is only 500 GB Samsung NVMe Gen 3 I carried forward, but I'm using it in the new system and it works just fine, I also have a 2 TB WD Blue HDD for mass game storage of less played games I carried forward the drives case fans and 750W Corsair modular PSU and Montech case in my upgrade. Next pay I will add a 1TB Gen 4 NVMe to the first slot and move the gen 3 drive to the bottom, and reload windows, and I should have some pretty high speed baling storage for the OS and 500 Gb for the lesser played games and even 2 TB spinning mass storage as a backup or for media files even. I sold my old Platform on FB Marketplace for $125 I was asking $150 and the it was a young kid who's dad came to get the Gigabyte B365M v2 WIFI Mobo,16 Gb V-color ddr4 2666 and i7 9700, and get this the kid who is 12 BTW is building a budget system for you know what for, eSports gaming at 1440p!! He has a 2080 he got used cheap, he's going to put with that combo, and I couldn't be happier for him, I'll take the $25 loss for the joy of this kid at Christmas time and I get most of what I valued the old combo at, win win

    I still use my 10-year-old PC as a second daily driver which has the same CPU (4790K) and 16GB of RAM and a Strix RTX 2080 with a SoundBlaster X on an ASUS Z97 Formula. The PC is a champ for how old it is. It play's Blops 6 @ 1080p and high/normal settings with an avg FPS of 80. When I built my 9900K and using the RTX 2080 and 32GB RAM I only gained 20 to 30 FPS across the board. It wasn't much of an uplift in performance.

He's slightly autistic and refuses to upgrade his system as he's got long term depression and lives in his room. I've bought him a 500GB SSD, obught him 8GB RAM modules to replace his to make 32GB. I also bought him a i7-3370 CPU but he won't do the required BIOS flash as he's afraid it will fail and brick his system. I'm surprised Steam still even lets him run his steam library.

    What a coincidence, I have that exact same cpu and board and video card. I rebuilt it last year and its on the shelf as a collector piece. Please Note that video card you got there has a very high endemic failure rate of the cooling fan bearings. As a precaution load test the video card for at least an hour, get it nice and hot, and listen to the fan bearings especially the one that is used towards the front of the case, it will start to buzz if its bad once the fan gets hot, you can order a replacement fan, the part is: 'NEW Graphics Card Fan for ASUS GTX780 780Ti R9 280/290X 290 Dual T129215SU 95mm'. As for cleaning me personally I take it outside and blow it out with my air gun and air compressor, i then take it all apart, to wash away all the pet dander and germs all the parts go into the bath tub with hot soap and water and i brush it all down with a parts brush, wipe it all down, then I air dry everything overnight with a fan on a table or if its really hot outside I leave it on a table outside and let the sun bake it dry. That particular build you got there I would hunt down two more of the same red matching sticks and bump it up to 32GB of system ram, add two argb fans to the top of the case, add argb fan to the rear of the case. For my collection this month Im putting together an FX8350 on a nice ATX Asrock Motherboard. I picked up some more GTX 970s cause they are pretty cheap now even the upper tier enthusiast models which I would advise getting, pickup the cards that have three fans. And for the newbies if you want to have a better idea what kind of games you can play on this system you can simply do a search for example: i7 4770 Gaming or GTX 970 Gaming. Happy Holidays. Merry Christmas. Happy New Years. 😇🙏🎅☃

    10 years old is way obsolete. Older than my platform going on 5 years old, also being obsolete.

    My computer is 12 years old does everything I needed to do.. I do not game on my computers I just simply pay bills and surf the Internet and a 12 year old computer is fully capable of doing that.. and does it very well..
