The gashes are just there to show you the sheer durability of the items
Battle tested, gamer approved.
If it can survive a T-Rex it can survive anything.
Durability approved
If cardboard boxes had eyes, this one would absolutely have a 1000 yards stare.
Your profile picture is literally my screen saver.
Honestly, for $300 and much better specs than I was expecting, not the WORST deal out there.
I’m impressed actually
Yeah considering they sell gaming prebuilts for a grand with a gt710
It might be your first pc just to try out the experience without expending a lot on a good one, I would buy it if it was my case
I feel like someone actually put some thought into these prebuilt budget builds.
If he trew in a cheap mouse pad there and just a usable monitor it would be a deal man, I realy like that optiplex diy work dkw.
Not only is it a 750Ti, it's a 4gb one! How thoroughly fancy.
I know right! Very impressive.
Do we know if that 4GB of GDDR5 or 4GB of DDR3? I know there were R7 250 cards that did this. Specifically 2GB DDR3.
@@ArtisChronicles When Dawid showed the sticker on the back of the card at 5:39 , it showed 4GB DDR5, so it's the good model.
@@ArtisChronicles all 750 tis are only gd5. and yeah my old r7 240 is 2g d3 while there is 1g gd5 out there.
She fancy 😂
If I had this as a 12 year old, I would've felt like an absolute baller.
This is definitely a viable "Buying a gaming setup for my child" kit 4 newbs.
hell no
@@Pizzarolles_. how its awesome for a budget and has the peripherals (even if it is not too good) for a cheap price
@@Nightmare-mr5mx No, Beelink/Trigkey NUC like PC's are half the price, and then you can buy a normal monitor and the rest for whats left over. These things are officially unjustifiable.
@@Pizzarolles_. not everyone need a high spec gaming machine bro... like i have RX 580 but i don't use it's full potential.... i think social media really changed our standard...
@@abdallahhafizsheen7259Again no, Beelink s12 and older games is fine for a kid and low power to boot, will only get better, these things are just over.
$300, full system, monitor, KB, mouse.... Although my personal standards are too high to use this setup myself, this is absolutely wonderful for a child's PC. I can't fault it, it's a pretty solid deal. I just hope they listed the PC as "used, refurbished".
"Although my personal standards are too high"
Sorry Buzzlightyear but this is a college student's dream, idk what you're talking about. Beats any ASUS laptop for $300.
$300 is 15% less than $350 though
TBH, a better kids PC would probably be the computer with Dell peripherals. The KB and mouse probably have lead in them...
Yup, upgrade the graphics card and a kid will be on cloud nine. Built one very similar to this for one of my younger relatives, same i7 chip but I gave them a better graphics card and it's in a tower case so they can upgrade it when they're older.
you must hate your children if you buy this slop for them.
This is the first time it hasn't been a scam and actually was put together by someone who knows their budget hardware well enough to know which old hardware kicks ass and which is ass.
I was so impressed
click ooohhhh
After hearing the specs, that monstrosity is actually a solid emulation box 😮
I was thinking the same. Though I would perhaps prefer something that doesn't have kittens when it tries to run 4K video
It would also run games from PS4 era at 1080p ow-med specs.
i think it can even handle most pre 2020 AAA games at 1080p low
just get a mini pc like a ryzen in 780m igpu - can be found for the same price, granted without with tv and e-waste peripherals but you are getting a current gen top tier cpu, ridiculous igpu performance while sipping a tiny amount of electricity
I am shocked that you got an actual GPU, not a display adaptor, what is basically a legendary CPU for its time, and TWO STICKS OF RAM in that system. Monitor quirks and cheap e-waste peripherals aside, this is one of the best value gaming setups in a box I've ever seen.
*click* OOHHH🤣🤣🤣
I've got to say, this is a surprisingly good deal. You get everything you need with a reasonable collection of parts (aside of the crap monitor..)
A good system to give your kid if you don't have something better to throw a 1660 or whatever in
Yeah it seems decent out of the box, tho the power supply is gonna hurt you really quick, that's lower power than my tower PC from late 2010
Crappy monitor is still better than no monitor. Much better than a whole crappy laptop for a college student.
@@aleksazunjic9672 Exactly. It is good enough to get started. Crappy monitor and old hardware, but working hardware.
1050ti lp would also do pretty good in this system i think. they go used for under $100 these days
@@aleksazunjic9672 I honestly don't know if it would be the best option, portability may be useful if gaming isn't the main goal of the device. Plus, if you don't mind going used instead of refurbished, there may be some decent (newer) hardware on ebay or marketplace for that price
This is actually impressive for $300
You know you ordered something weird when the package dodged 3 bullets.
You know you've ordered something solid when the package survives 3 bullets.
@@SSJfraz Haha!! Was surprised the monitor survived.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff It's only the good stuff that dies. Crap like that suffers on, never getting put out of it's misery.
@@SSJfraz no rest for the wicked
Those are speed holes. It made the package arrive faster.
I've never thought about covering a Dell SFF with skateboard grip tape but now I know approximately how it would look.
i mean, if they did just a little bit better it doesnt look to bad
I did cover top of my Evolv ITX with sticker that mimics plastic finish similar to B pillars between side windows on cars.
Do a kick flip on ya pro Gamer setup
Can't lie the mini RGB in the SFF optiplex does impress!
Side note, using the Motherboard box as a stand for the monitor is the definition of a true gamer!
Im very impressed that they actually managed to pull that off for 300 bucks, the gaming performance is not at all unplayable, this is a pretty banging deal for someone only has that much budget
lol they just want to get rid of the old gpus they probably still have hundreds of them
@@ultimateearrapechannel31 so? it's still a deal nonetheless, what more could you get from 300 bucks lmao
It's a waste of money😂
This would be a cool kid's computer though
@@coreywagner8998 how is it a waste? 300 bucks dude for a whole low end setup. Perfect for a kid
The most entertaining pc tech channel on youtube.
This is actually a pretty good deal for the money. Fine for e-sports and would make for a great high-end Windows XP retro gaming rig. Would be able to run most XP era games at max settings.
10:23 I'm not sure what's more valuable - the entire gaming setup or the motherboard that came in the box Dawid is casually propping the monitor up with... probably pretty close!
8:43 "everybody's favorite digital daycare" 😂😂😂
former amazon driver- gashes can be from 2 things, -warehouse works were falling short on their 1200 packages an hr scanning and were throwing the hell out them or -driver had too many overflow packages (packages that dont fit in totes like yours) and it ended up tossed into corner of shelf wich can easily penetrate box with weight of other overflows against it.
No way this man won a game that easy, he's holding back his true gamer skills on us.
I am sure the T Rex did it's best delivering the beast gaming setup
I am really impressed what you can get for 350$. For that price, its definitely a W. There is even a monitor, and a setup included in that price. I am speechless 🤣
The tower performed surprisingly well. I would skip the e-waste peripherals and then grab wired Logitech or Dell stuff, as well as a used IPS monitor that came from an office or something.
Ran my i72600k, 16 gigs of ram and gtx 1660 ti up until 2022. That setup ran cyberpunk 2077 1080p max settings except screen space reflections (set to high) and still got between 30-40 fps. No ray tracing, and no dlss, fsr.
After the intro my body was fully prepared to watch a notebook unboxing. And no, it's not a strange way to say it...
"it looks like it was designed by a 13 year old hopped up on slurpees" Dawid never fails to make me laugh
This is more beautiful than my 2013 gtx 880
those rgb look pretty fancy to be honest on this machine, feels like some retro gaming station with oldschool neons :) i like it :D
I was saying "it's gotta be an ivy bridge or maybe a sandy bridge optiplex!" And I cheered when the bag opened 😂
Man, I was putting hundreds and hundreds of those on pallets like 4 years ago... It's hilarious to see what people do to them.
The amount of people who started out with PC gaming by putting together almost exactly this kind of system. It was always the good budget recommendation.
Sure, there isn't much room to upgrade, but it's still a good starter.
@@HappyBeezerStudios I'm still running a few. My favorite laptop, and one of my desktops is 2nd / 3rd gen i5. Although the desktop is pretty much retired, but they still work fine. Only websites with lots of garbage on them, or video higher than 1440 will cause them issues.
@@volvo09 Myself I'm running a 3rs gen i5 and a core 2 quad. The latter is more of a media PC, but it does that job well.
The i5 is still the gaming rug, but I notice the limits, especially since it can fully drive out the 1060 it's paired with.
....turns out the 750Ti was the last true budget card that Nvidia ever made. dang.
That click you get from high wattage power supplies is to die for. I have an rm1000 and the click from turning it on is just so satisfying. It feels like your powering up something way more powerful than it actually is.
There are some super satisfying things. PSU clicks, peeling protective film from brand new screens and glass sidepanels, switching the relais for the headphone amp.
That kind of stuff. It doesn't give you any performance, but it's just so satisfying.
I really like watching your Vids you put a comedic spin on all the serious Spec/performance spread sheets everyone else does. Its a nice departure. Keep doing all the weird shit you do sir.
NGL that Dell performed way better than expected. I think it was the RGB in the system.
Still waiting for someone to make Dawid's jokes compilation... very unique sense of humor from this man!
My god, the RGB on the Dell
Playing Tetris on the case
I've always been curious about these bedazzled Dells. I smile every time I pass by the one they have on display at my local Canada Computers.
The description of the PC being from a 'Stripper's Purse' is just so accurate :'D
Did you ask Dawid how he knows what a stripper's purse looks like?
YESSSSSSSSS
I actually had my friend buy a refurbished PC as his main rig seriously just killed itself fully and he's on the broke side rn, another HP case as expected, but the specs surprised me so much
Came with a GTX 1660 Super, Core i5 7500, 32GB of 3000MHz ram and a 2017 3TB HDD, only issue was it 128GB SSD
None the less he's actually happy about it, even the HP case is actually organized, we were so damn surprised cause we didn't expect much for only $320
For 320 thats actually an awesome deal
@@DAVEEEEEE1217 it is, we’ve been playing games all night, reliving the nights of 2020 since him and I are both stuck in home school now (we hate it)
Nothing more for 2 17 year old dumbasses to do
You could talk literally about anything, and it would be entertaining . You have such a great personality and sense of humor. Keep it going, brother. You deserve way more subs.
I'm pretty sure the BOM on the boxes is just "Bill of Materials", aka, the stuff that goes in the box
Your channel just keeps getting better and better. And you're one of the few channels where I don't skip the sponsor segments.
When i read the title I was about have a heart attack until I realized it was in USD and not CAD
I have a few of these in my closet from my old IT job, outdated there, but were great I7 desktops for medium gaming.
Hey Dawid, have you considered having a VR benchmark section for these type of videos? Feel like it could make for some interesting results as VR is pretty intensive. Great videos!
Yeah thats almost my same pc exepct its not a optiplex i have a i5 3470 and a gtx 750ti
And gtx 750ti is not a bad gpu at all it can even run resident evil 4 remake at 40-50 fps with 768p low with quality fsr
Also this is the video were dawid didnt test gta v lol
It's definitely a bad gpu by today's standard, yes. It's all dependent on your experiences and whatnot, of course... that's just my opinion.
@@aprilmeowmeow I upgraded to a gtx 1050ti I wouldn't call that an upgrade but for someone who plays some eSports like csgo valorant fortnite and some games like gta v minecraft resident evil and do some editing coding and other stuff it's more than enough I mean 1050ti is more than enough
I am weak in English please dont judge me xD
Wow how I would dream of having a PC like this it is incredible, better than mine...😭
Buy some old refurbished Dell Optiplex, buy some old midrange GPU, and there you go. And if you don't care about aesthetics, it doesn't even have to be a low profile card, just let it stick out. If it runs, it runs.
@HappyBeezerStudios if you do cut a hole to fit a full sized card, make sure to use tape around the edges of the hole so you don't short circuit the card lol, especially if it doesn't have a backplate
I'm starting at Amazon and noticed, the warehouse workers don't care how stuff is stacked, and apparently it's pretty common for boxes to be damaged by it
I had a i7 2600 up until 2 years ago and it was a monster of a cpu it was starting to show it's age. Although you can't overclock or use fancy ram with these pre builts (like mine) but with a overclock and fast ram it's still a pretty good cpu I bet
No one tell Dawid he's in Fortnite bot lobbies
I don't know how you do it ,funny entertaining and informative content every single time maybe we're just addicted to listening to dawid's jokes😂😂😂
hi, as someone who works at an AMZL center, that wasn’t boxed by amazon as it doesn’t have the amazon branding on there. it was likely damaged during shipping from the seller to the fulfillment center that it arrived to prior to hitting a delivery station. hope this helps
😊thank you bro. The right , reasonable, and logic build for budget pc gamer with high 1080p resolution.
This is going to be a craptacular epic by Dawid!
I bet all the delivery services know that when they see a square of duct tape covering up what should be the sender and recipient label on a box or envelope they know it goes to you. Well done training them!
Dawid thanks so much for making these videos. I have motivation to build something after 10 years (idk what yet) and the humor is top tier
I just bought a Dell Optiplex SFF 790 from Value Village for $11 with Windows 10. I did upgrade several things such as replacing the HD with SSD and upgrade the 4GB to 12GB, and finally a AMD R5 430.
You can get both the keyboard and the mouse at the dollar store here in Ontario Canada for $5.00 each! Both with RGB! Thanks for another fun video :)
I have been looking around for a replacement for an aging hp desktop that finally quit. Really for what I really need it for (mostly productivity, some video watching, kids school class/work) this doesn't seem like a bad deal.
Man, thanks for all the effort and the passion you put in these videos... I suffer of a severe impaired vision condition and i just can't build a pc. But i can enjoy this amazing world trough your terrific videos! Thanks a lot!
The monitor's "brightness" control is likely entirely gamma control through its entire range with the backlight itself not being controllable. This was really common with cheap LCDs back in the day. You have to find the sweet spot for contrast and color accuracy, or else the monitor becomes unusable. You can see the effect this has at 14:02, with the black level remaining constant up until 63% (presumably) and then the white level remains constant above that.
I found your channel through a recommendation on the LTT subreddit following the controversy and I'm so happy I did! You really make great videos!
for a person having only 350 to play game today, with all peripherals included, it is amazing actually.
That actually seems like a good deal. The Cyberpunk performance squeezing reminds me of when I built my first rig, thought it was great then fired up Crysis for the first time (back in 2007-2008ish) and had to use custom very low settings getting 20-30fps in multiplayer- it's weird to think that now 60fps is just 'okay'.
These videos end my week on a high note. Thanks Dawid!
I wonder whether BOM just means Bill Of Materials which in the inventory/manufacturing world is a kit list of parts to make a complex item or system. So it is just a BOM code. You don’t normally see it presented that way but that would be my guess.
Nada mal para 300$ ! Ojalá hubiese tenido algo parecido hace algunos años, habría sido muy feliz, es un equipo que puede funcionar para casi todo respetando sus límites y por ese precio con todo lo que trae listo para usar pues es buena oferta.
This is kind of cool for the right use case considering it comes with an SSD. For retro gaming, this thing could kick ass for the price! Though you'd be better off picking up a used CRT from a yard sale than using the E Waste disaster of a monitor provided
that case is actually really cool. if it was controllable rgb it would make for a nice "offmeta" build
I would have assumed truckbed liner spray at first but I guess sticker sandpaper is even cheaper, I wonder where they get it. My guess is its some kind of garage shelf liner.
13:14 the cpu utilization is 100% at the cores that the game can utilize. the rest of the cores are at idle, hence the overall utilization is about 60ish percent.
Seldom do I comment on UA-cam videos but I recently got back into watching PC videos, especially yours, and I have to say both this PC and your content quality was outstanding.
Not really a consumer of tech content on the platform, but subbed because it was refreshing seeing a saffa making some genuinely good and actually funny videos. Cheers Bru
cool reviews love your work just curious what kinda watch you wearing looks dope
A 4GB 750ti as well, so even longer lived than the typical 2GB version. Cyberpunk used well over 3GB.
The i7 3770S would be a noticeable upgrade over the 2600. Problem is however the lack of instructions that pre Haswell i7 have.
Let's do some quick math, the setup on Amazon is $330 US. The monitor by itself is just under $90 on Amazon, you got $20 in the headset, headset, keyboard, and mouse combo, the King Fast SSD is also about $20, the NVidia 750 Ti is about $40 on eBay, Windows, if they paid for a license, they probably did a $10 gray market key, and the computer and its RAM are probably free from recyclers, so that brings the component cost of the PC up to about $180. Add in like another $20 for labor, glitter, and RGB for $200. Even after Amazon's cut and shipping they are probably clearing about $70. Not bad.
i made the same noises at the same time as you for that power supply switch at the beggining. such a heavenly sound
I love the fact that the price of power supply in the sponsorship is worth more than the complete setup in the video. Love your work Dawid
A bit since I caught a vid. Super cool to see you killing it with the subs. Was under 200k not too long ago
Its so fun to watch
Love the content
Much more useful and versatile than any big name console... bravo!
Now that I spent the past 2 months doing PC research your videos make a lot more sense lol. Think I've had more fun parting it together than anything
Ok, the be quiet PSU switch was crazy.... the PC equivalent of the M1 Garand clip ejection! felt the tingle for sure!
Always good to see the classic 750 Ti still pulling hard lol
"thirteen year old hopped up on slurpees' is now my new favorite way to describe aggressive styling
That weird moment were you the exact same Optiplex you own with near identical specifications (GTX 750-Ti vs. 1030) on Dawid's channel. Mine lacks the RGB and sparkly glitter, which is to its detriment I feel. I use it as a Linux server, and it does just fine.
That power switch joke will never get old. Never change Dawid. Never change.
And your video outro guitar track was quite good as well!
"Unfailingly rustles the gentleman's vegetables!" 🤣🤣🤣 I am dying!
'Digital Daycare' is the best description of Fortnite I have ever heard 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
This is a BIG W for $300!
I am in love with the seller. I recently sold my pc with about the same specifications it had nothing wrong with it just wanted a bit of upgrade. It felt like the seller had my pc which he sold to u. Mine was an hp optiplex type not dell and it wasnt from a stripper.
WAWID LOVE your videos
hearing that power supply switch, did make my gentlemens carriage twinge, and I am not ashamed to say it.
Lol I did something similar with the first version of my PC. I bought an Optiplex 7040 for $140CAD, it had an i7-6700 and I put a 1660 Super in it. It actually performed way above my expectations and I was able to play a lot of newer games in med-high settings without too much issue. The whole build was under $250 CAD.
Nice one bro.
This is a pretty good value tbh. Full setup with fairly capable hardware for $350 US? Not bad at all
We got my step daughter a "gaming setup" from eBay. For the same price as a n i5 2500 with gt710 with single channel memory. We got a much later (6th gen or 8th gen) i5, gt750 and 2 sticks of dual channel memory, monitor, keyboard and mouse. The case is pretty good as well, with a glass side panel. She's very happy with it
These things are perfect for kid's setups. Not everyone can afford (or wants to give their kid) an expensive gaming computer!
pretty good deal you have there , nice very informative video , I learn a lot
From my extremely limited experience swapping parts, it's less CPU limit with SandyBridge/Ivybridge running Fortnite, and more memory bandwidth. Also, DX12 has less stutter/better lows for such a modest system. 1600 vs 1866 RAM making a slight difference. Ought to try that era hardware with memory overclocking only. I don't have a UA-cam budget to do it myself, or I would. One of those new production chinese X79 boards and a 3820K or something, or (apparently) a 1600 Xeon. Maybe you can still OC RAM with a 2600 Xeon like the $15 2667 V2, or $8 2670 V1... IDK.
with all the perpherals thats actually a pretty good deal for a parent buying their kid a first game capable computer or something like that. the only thing i really worry about is the gpu temps maybe u can ramp up the fan speed in msi that might help alot
1:22- I didn't realize Michael Myers got a job working as a delivery driver lmao
