They do exist, and they *suck.* They have a very small amount of flash memory (8-16GB), and once it dies, the entire drive goes with it.

"oh, it's an older CPU"

mine was made in 2007 and it works good
I know super old. How can you survive on such antiquated equipment. My CPU is from September 2017 as it should be.
that feeling when he said that and u only have a processor which was made in 2008

PSU: Corsair CX750M
nothing wrong with that if it works. one of the only pet peeves I have with tech youtubers is how they push the latest and greatest. like oh no the i7 6700k is SOOOO OLD now. basically trash. pointless. gotta get the 7700k! dude fuck off, basically the same damn thing except a higher base clock out of the box and a higher price tag.
Could have done even better. Just stuck with the Core i7 920 or Phenom X6 1100T for the last decade. The performance increment from those CPUs is not that big compared to now.
We need more ken, what a legend
I gotta say, that customer service from best buy was pretty good, he offered to price match 2 weeks ago.
At my local worst buy I was told to go kick rocks, when I asked them if they could price match last weeks price on a gaming monitor. I even called the customer service line and they said there was nothing they could do.
All that shit for the price to drop a week later to the same price it was on sale.
3:55 when you have to act like they said something interesting but really you don't care
Nah I had the same reaction a month after having my PC finding my usb c port

@@mateusz_0 wait so it's not a gaming pc? I've seen a lot of people use it for games. Do you have the one in the video?
That's actually a really good deal for what you got. I recently tried building a mid-ranged gaming pc, and when the parts were added up, I was paying over $800. That's quite a lot for mid-range specs. I ended up buying a HP Pavilion 690 series gaming PC (the mid-range version) and I paid ~$600 (on sale). The HP had way better components than what I was getting trying to build it myself. All I had to do with the HP was buy an SSD (I may also upgrade the RAM in tne foreseeable future).
So deals do exist and you can actually getting something that's prebuilt with good performance.
I love y’all a lot, when I need to learn about tech, y’all at the right time( also LInus)
i3 with a 750 ti for 450?!?! That guy is worse than the Indian scammers
That can't run shit , maybe mario on low settings 😂
ALI-A OMG WHAT SUP BROOO! CE I KIDDING 👌🏼
The 750TI is a pretty good card, if you're on a budget.
It's pretty good with a i3 8100, but it's not that good with a older i3.
750 ti is really good budget gpu. It's on par with something like GT 1030 or MX150... But I'm not sure about that pricing

How to buy a gaming PC:
Build it.
DOLPHIN Lmao you can't build a PC this cheap with the same parts as cheap as this.
Indeed, these PCs were cheap for having those components but if you build it you'll have it exactly how you want it and the exact design you want on the case, colors etc.
Nope, found the best pc deal on Amazon. Noticed that people started to recommend it a bit after I found it too. rx580, 7th gen i5, 1tb hd as well as some other things for $719
Link?
A Random Idiot Play's have you seen RX 480/580 prices right now? Build me a PC to cheaper with the same parts.
I was subbed to Austin a few years back when I was building my first PC and one of his videos really helped me put it all together and know what direction I wanted to go. Back then he had a several thousand subs, coming back here and seeing he has 2mil is absolutely insane. He has great quality work and knows his stuff. He's also been hitting the gym since then lol keep up the hard work Austin!
I've been a fan forever, he's so ripped, plz fuck my mouth.
+Glenn V wtf bro
*looks across my bedroom to see that exact same model just chilling there*
Honestly, I would just look at PC's by myself because I feel like employees will try to get me a pc at the max budget.
Duncan: so what were you you expecting?

Rodrick Explores like for real man! 300w for a 480 and an i5? That is the fucking limit man
Bas Hartman it's going to blow up 2 weeks in
I5 = 65w
RX480 = 150w
HDD = 10w
The rest = 10w
=> 245w on peak.
Well, 300w PSU sure can handle this, but I am much more cocerned about it's components quality.
Rodrick Explores .
PSUs in prebuilts are usually decent, and this is an 80+ Bronze unit and I'm sure it meets it's rating. I stuck an 8800 GTS 512 in an old HP with a 300W PSU and had 0 issues with it.
I like how the pc doesn’t completely exemplify “gaming”. I like gaming PCs but sometimes I would prefer a system that just looks like a normal system but is a gaming system
i've legit had that same exact computer for like 4 years and i really want to build a pc now
Same
Savage Kenny, “let me just call my dad first” calls even. Best part
300W PSU + Poor Ventilation
Bet that 480 isn't going to last long
so yank it and sell it to a miner and make some money
Mohit Akundi you could just replace the psu. It's a super easy replacement
You could sell it for $450 right now and upgrade to a GTX 1070 or just upgrade the PSU
A lot of OEM's use proprietary connectors for their PSU's (HP are notorious for this) so it's not always that simple
TheChaosPredator I have one but will it sell fast if I sell it at that price?
1:38 I love how the middle PC looks cheap but better than mine xd
I bought my current gaming pc from Best Buy. It's from ibuypower. I bought it for 1299 in April 2019 and it came with 16gb of ram, an i7-8700, RTX 2070, and a 1tb SSD. It also came with a mechanical keyboard and a mouse that I never used since I bought razer stuff at the same time. I figured for 1299 that was a pretty damn good price for all that stuff and would be a nice entry point to get me into PC gaming.
The thumbnail is my current PC ._.

does it play crisis
wtf that $499 computer cost us $1000 from Best Buy how do ppl get such amazing deals
It could just be that the $1000 option you looked at included everything (monitor, keyboard, mouse). There's also the possibility that you are simply in a remote region - prices will be far higher in say, Hawaii, as opposed to Florida.
look around many stores...you gotta HUNT the deal..
Good deals don't fall in your lap, you must hunt. God I love the hunt.
most companies inflate prices to an insane degree.
Amazon is another example for this. They will legit charge you 1k sometimes for a pre-built PC with a 780ti.
In 2018. The card is from 2011.
Not that this is a bad card, I can even play games like Assassin's Creed Origins and Destiny 2 on very good settings, 1080p 60fps on my regular 780. But I should also mention that I've had this card for so long I know it inside and out, and I can manipulate the advanced graphics settings to match it's strengths and weaknesses.
But still though, pricing on many retailers is crazy inflated.
Stop shopping at best buy. They sell only 2 sata cables and one cost 20 bucks for 1 set but micro center bot a 20 pack for 10 bucks. I went to best buy for a power supply and they only had 1 power supply. Plus they charge you 70 bucks to install ram. How do you charge 70 for a pushdown and click..............................................

if you're buying from best buy, you should look online first and buy it off of there. i couldn't find the PC i have at the physical store so i got it online, and it is pretty good and might run very well in the future as well
The used market is your friend, I got a 2017 razer pro 17 with 1060 32 gigs ram and 120hz display for just a bit more money. It is also pretty easy to snag a decent grade business desktop at an auction and slap a GPU in it. You might have to get a PSU too, but it is really not that bad. I don't see any difference in the used market vs old shelf products when you normally do a fresh install and or an SSD upgrade anyways. This wasn't always the case, used to be older stuff +4 years was nearly useless, but even an i3 core is pretty useful. Gotta hunt down those market place treasures.

I bought an HP Omen from Walmart for $750 a few years ago, it has an i7 and GTX1070. Still runs games coming out these days at 60fps 1080p on max settings.

woah woah woah, i work at best buy, you cannot price match a price from 2 weeks ago lol
Yeah like that is completely not allowed
Stan Derg who cares
Nitrous There are rules man! RULES!
He obviously could or said screw the rules!
Can confirm. Also Best Buy employee. I'd get into some major shit if I tried to price match back that far.
Ken, you really did a fine ass job! 2-3 years ago I purchased an IBUYPOWERPC ( I was a newbie and didn't have the knowhow). It had a GTX 960, FX6300, 8 GB of ram, and a 1tb hard drive. The fact you got a relatively modern i5 with an RX480 and a 1 TB SSD for $650 ( which is about the price for just the graphics card and SSD alone) is such an awesome deal!
This was so helpful
The fan on the pavilion is hanging there lol
I knew miners killed the market for graphics cards, but I thought pre-builts were safe. I never would have thought of buying an entire system for a single component. what assholes.
its really weird how people actually get mad at miners. "assholes" they are doing their job, nothing shady or anything.
"their job"... It's not a job, it's gambling. They're a bit like the assholes who drove our economy into the ground in Wall Street. "it's their job" except that when they "do their job", they screw over (inconvenience) the larger part of the population and aren't punished (like driving our economy in the ground for Wall Street or bloat graphics card prices). They deal in imaginary money, bloating up entities that shouldn't exist in the first place (bitcoin and stock), create bubbles that I hope pop soon. that's why they are referred to as "assholes"
ntbcool and they complain that some cards aren't good for mining like that is not what it is meant for
mining is the scummiest thing ever,fucking over people for your own personal gain,crawl back to hell scumbags
Klaevin well I mean all money is imaginary, we assign value to each and every currency, but realistically if the people who assigned the currency disappeared (the US government falls and the dollar becomes worthless). Also you can not blame a man for doing something if it provides resources for him to survive, in this case, currency. Yea it sucks for gamers and the people who went to this level (buying prebuilts and taking the graphics out then reselling the machine for the same price since most don't know what a gpu is) is a total asshole, but gamers really are the niche market, as graphics cards companies are like "1050ti will run all your games and a 1080 or higher if you need 4k"
