The fact they didn’t know what ODM gear was 🥲
I guess they dun watch Attack on Titan 😅
Facts 😭😭
Its nice that you guys are always finding cheap options to give everybody a decent gaming time
This pc is not a good option
@@jonathan-qd1cc then what you have to offer? tell us pls
@@patlotpotlot6154 either the prebuilt hp pavillion or a custom witch is like 2-3x better
@@patlotpotlot6154 There is no decent pc gaming at that price tag.....sorry but its a fact. If someone doesnt mind lowering their resolution plus playing on all low settings with worst performance than a console then by all means waste money but if your gonna spend 400 bucks get a console and get better performance....... Pc gaming is only worth it at about 800 plus.
This is staged anyway. Why would HP send 12100f without a Graphics card?
I took a HP 290-p0043w SLIM, upgraded the CPU to an i7-8700 for $80, slapped 2x8 2666 Ram kit already had. Didn't perform like I wanted it to on the IGPU, so i bought an RX580 off amazon for $99 (NEW). had to use a PCIE riser cable, & ordered 2 additional plugs to split the MINI 8 pin power between the HDD & GPU. The GPU is sitting outside the case at this current moment but man I'm shocked at how good this thing runs games @1080P I was worried about the power supply not being big enough but so far so good. My youngest son is using it to play Fortnite, Roblox & Warzone.
RX580 is 185W, it takes more wattage than the PSU even has completely
So did the PSU die yet?
Very nice. I love these budget build gaming computers. I have a couple of PCs I ordered from eBay and trying to turn into gaming computers.
I find it a really good and cheap way to get into PC gaming without breaking the bank.
So yeah I do love seeing stuff like this.
for builds like this where the gpu gets really hot you guys should do some undervolting and show the temp and performance differences
Those temps 😮 97C had me sweating.
PLEASE buy the sapphire rx 6400 its the same form factor but stays much cooler
Top tip right here! Just bought one a sec ago can't wait :)
Bro this literally my PC, got it on sale from Staples for like $250 in December (new) and got the GPU for $150. Love it, upgraded the ram (32 GB) and updated the SSD space.
Does it get hot??
@@Kha_57 I've had no issues with it. I mainly play Madden on it, runs great
How about fortnite?
@@Kha_57 I don't play it, but I'm sure it will run great
@__looking_good things are twice expensive here unfortunately... 1000$ is giving a low to mid range pc
97 degC on the GPU. I would cut a 120mm x 240mm hole in the side panel right over the PCI slots and mount a couple of 120mm x 15mm fans with a sheet of air filter mesh on the outside of the side panel blowing onto the GPU. These fans would also provide positive air pressure to the inside of the case. Maybe neaten it up with some trim around the fans.
Send me the PC and I'll fabricate a side panel fan system and then send it back to you.
My name is Barry Allen and I am the fastest man alive
Flash reference? 🤔🧐
Well, aren't we all
That's SMOKIN!!!😂
Well that's awesome 👍 good for you.
Fastest, what?
The sapphire 6400 is much quicker you don't have to remove the shroud
Remember if you can get a full tower, go for an rx 580, its cheaper (even when new) and performs a lot better.
You need a good psu tho.
@@Aura4669 ok??? People can go ahead and purchase a power supply. I don’t seem to understand your concern here.
they're like 90 bucks, its crazy
@@SnowWow what country you live in? In the United States where I live. You can get a 500w 80 plus white unit for $39.99 U.S dollars. Power supplies are not that expensive
@@jonathan-qd1cc Well, here's the thing. If you have a PC like the one they were using, you usually can't switch out the PSU. HP usually uses proprietary parts for things like the PSU and Mobo, meaning, you couldn't really switch that out...
i came to this video from ebay cuz i found this pc on ebay for 175 bucks usd and i was like i gyatt to get this pc and im planning on getting it in a few days to a week and there is better options than the rx 6400 but that would take 2 slots and require a psu upgrade and as in for the side panel u could mod it by getting mesh sheets and cutting the side panel and placing in the mesh sheet into the cut out and that should help with frame throttling and bad thermals
I salvaged an e-waste Dell that could only handle a single-slot GPU and the (same) RX6400 fit perfect. I use it as a Wii emulation box and it runs great.
For this price of $400 I would have just custom built with used parts. Overall much better in my opinion
Yeah, and tbh for that price you are better off with console...Im a pc fan boy but pc gaming only becomes better at 800 dollars plus. You cant buy the parts at the prices these companies get them for to build their consoles.
@@A7X062388 true
For around 550 USD you can build a brand new Ryzen 5 4500, B550 motherboard,GTX 1650 LP, 16 Gbs 3200 Mhz CL16 RAM, good power supply and a decent case. This pricing is in the EU.
You get about equal performance and a far better upgrade path. HP is full of proprietary bull and cost cutting.
You can go up to 600 USD and get a Ryzen 5 5600 and get PCIE Gen 4.
@@Liminal.Headspace you are exactly right. I don’t know why people go with these proprietary prebuilts. They have 0 upgrade path. With a custom pc you get all freedom and upgrade path you need and for much better value and price
The dual blades is from attack on titan lol
Love the video. I would take a LP 1650 over a LP RX 6400
I had an RX 6400 inside a Low Profile HP system for about 6 months and it always started thermal throttling after about 4h of playing Sea of Thieves
And I had the dual Slot but still low profile variant by Gigabyte
The overlay shows that it is an F class CPU. I assume this is a typo. It would seem odd for this computer to have no iGPU. it would imply that you have to upgrade it.
Love seeing the storage room, any chance you do a tour?
with the motherboard, could you eventually upgrade the process to an i5 or i7? You mentioned a good upgrade path but did not really talk about where you could upgrade, ie what processors would be compatible. What would be the first upgrade, graphics card, more RAM, processor. Thanks
You can as long its the same generation.
Example: upgrading from i3-12100f to i5-12600
If you're still not sure what CPU your motherboard supports, you could always type your motherboard's name + cpu support
Example: asus tuf plus gaming b450m cpu support (this motherboard is for ryzen, I just used it as an example)
Look at Matt rocking the LCFC tee!
Ty am for finding out this pc Im trynna start content creation and this would give me a huge boost
I think i would rather go for the bigger rx 6400s with better cooling, especially here in Africa with hot climates. It could fail prematurely.
That card is actually the hottest model. Sapphire pulse and the other xfx model run a lot cooler
Atack on Titans is anime where ODM gear came from. It's my favourite anime dude.😊
Wait how is it a 12100f if the computer came with no graphics card? Do you think they pulled out the gpu and sold them separately?
Thats a good question...
It probably has a 12100, but they mistyped 12100f in MSI Afterburner due to most people being used to the 12100f over the 12100.
@@Liinuli. I don’t think that’s how it works though, it’ll auto detect hardware and show it on the overlay, now that I’ve had some sleep I figured they just swapped the 12100 for an F skew since they were using a gpu
they swapped a hp pabillion gaming pc gtyx 1650 and putted in a 750ti.
@@kevinagostinello9968 Nah I looked it up. You have to manually type in the hardware you have on that overlay. Normally it just puts cpu, gpu, ram etc. So they just accidentally put 12100f instead of the 12100.
i bought a lenova pc for 370ish usd off amazon its a 1660 i5 with 32 gb ram and so far so good gta 5 60 -70 fps depends if im online or not
I'd mod the side panel and throw on some fans that pull some heat out of that hot box
Try undervolt the thing. i have similar setup in a similar hp case. undervolting my gpu lowered the temps by 6-8 degrees celsius. i even got higher and constant boost clocks! means more FPS, haha!
NO DVD DRIVE?????? I have to have a Blu-Ray drive just to be able to watch my movie and anime discs. I use AnyMP4 Blu-Ray player to play all movie discs from ANY region on the planet, without app ardware-locking the region if you play a disc from a specific region 5 times.
This was actually my first pc
Goodness, that 6400's getting CHOKED. If I was in the market for a PC, I'd probably skip this.
Surprisingly they're still in demand. I'd take the 1650 over it any day of the week.
I usually buy new samsung tablet s8 currently. Less powerful but good on power is what I'm looking for but yaw do good work for higher end gaming.
these were 199 4 weeks ago, .... just wait till the hype dies down and grab it at a better price with the 6400 for well under the $400 mark 👍
:and boom our gpu is now installed
6:51 Minecraft zombi sound*
xeon is still expensive even old ones so that price is maybe not too off as expected
I have a sff hp compaq elite 8200 using i5 2400 and rx6400. My temp runs 85°c at 99%. With the side panel on.
What if you were to go with a2000 6gb?
That card would not fit inside that HP slim.
Its overprice for that gpu.
You wasted your money.
The temps are way too high for my liking... I would have modded the case if it was me for more air flow.
I'm assuming you can find a similar priced computer that takes full height graphics cards and hopefully standard power supplies?
I’ve got the same exact gpu in an older hp office pc rocking an i5 6500😂 I only use it for retro emulation, but kinda curious to see what it could do running newer titles
Can you build a PC with better specs for around $400?
doubt it
@@SeeJayPlayGames what are you doubting? For $400 if you build it yourself all custom parts you can get much better than the shitty HP prebuilt that’s shown in this video/
@@jonathan-qd1cc prove it
10:35 ODM gear is from attack on titan btw XD
The odm gear in fortnight is from attack on Titan
your videos are amazing! i love tech and watching your videos are so well made and entertaining. keep up the amazing work!
if you agree

bro builds pcs for a living and doesnt know what a line in jack is
I like these guys content but I wouldn't spend $400 on this pc. The video card upgrade path is very limited. $400 goes a LONG way on Newegg these days towards a new pc build.
Wondering if the parts could be put in an old/really cheap case that could provide better thermals ... 🤔
İ’m going to do it from hp compaq to atx case and upgrades with full size graphics card
Attack on Titan weapons!!!!
Hi toasty bros I had a question. Do you guys tweak the pc to make it perform better it do you guys play the games without any tweaks to help with performance?❤
Yes, for this one they actually did tweak if, they switched a few things but all easy upgrades such as adding ram/replacement and gpu swap/or add
@@IroncladMemes I meant like in settings on the pc
Also pls play Minecraft in all your reviews
I think the cheapest Amazon build comes out to about $350. Can you guys take a crack at that? I’d be too scared this computer will blow up during a hot summer with no AC on 😂
Seen that one of the reviews reckons it's a Mish mash of older parts he said the motherboard was over 15 years old so yeah I'd avoid that
I3 10100 with a 6500 XT
How would this even fit a 2 lane card? Seems to only fit a single lane card.
I am surprised you guys stated that HP case could handle double slot cards when those models with the PSU to the right of the slots always has the 16x slot right next to the PSU. Should always test the rig before upgrades but you guys know that too. Slacking a little boys. Might be time for vacation. 🙂
Wdym by slacking?
you can always drill holes on the side panel and if you have enough space maybe add a few small fans to increase cooling or completely remove the GPU fan and and cpu fan and op for water cooling you might need to customize it a bit and maybe have an external radiator
I wanna buy a pc but don’t understand anything 😅 besides fps since I play on console
Are you living in the United States? I can make you a pc part list
You wanna build a pc or buy a shitty prebuilt?
@@jonathan-qd1cc bro got 100+ comments on this channel alone complaining lmao 🤣🤣💀
@@ikram2512 how do you know 💀😂😂😂
IF HP would put that X16 PCIE Slot to be the top one, that GPU would be able to "breath" properly.
I have no idea why they keep putting it in the bottom.
FYI Chris Pratt voiced Mario in the newest animation not Pedro Pascal.
Pedro did an Mario SNL skit a few months ago which is what their referencing.
@@MrWhomp aaaaaa I see.
Have a gaming session and cook dinner at the same time.....
These guys haven't heard of Attack on Titan lol
ODM gear in Fortnite definitely tempting to play
Does anyone know if the RX 580 would fit? It seems like it might, though it would definitely be a tight fit.
nah
yknow what else no one talks about? ligma whys no one talking about ligma
Do you prefer the RX 6400 over the gtx 1650? Both run off the PCIE wattage , I see arguments for both , but I’m asking overall ??
I been watching ur guys channel for a while and I couldn't decide either to buy a prebuilt gaming pc desktop or build a a gaming desktop pc I already have a gaming laptop I just want something better to play online when I am home for the CPU I am thinking about the intel I core i5 and for the GPU the 1660 super from msi would that be a good first start for me
Just have a question regarding Fortnite, for when would you switch on Direct X 12? I.e which CPU and GPU minimum?
I have that pc and it barely works
I just bought the slightly older version of this for only 35 bucks, can anyone suggest me things to do? I already tried to install 16gb of ram but it showed black screen… the beginning of a project….
I would love to see this system custom watercooled, to set the temps down.
I need someone who knows a lot about pc's to help me build one😢
Nice Vid👍😁
i got an hp victus 15l rx 6400 r5 for 330
People in the comment section. Im just looking for a bang for your buck mid tier prebuilt custom pc. ❤ do the toasty bros make good pcs? If not, where did you guys recommend? 🙏 (no building myself. I have ptsd from blowing up my last computer) 😂
My new shows to watch
Theyre not katanas xD theyre vme blades from attack on titan
Nice price
you guys don't know what ODM gear is T_T
Can someone tell me if there is a certain kind of case that I can switch this PC too? I have this exact one that I added some upgrades too but really want it in another case but I cant find any info as to if I can or not.
I was your 1000th like
top pc builders
Can I fit an 6600 XT?
What software is that for the gpu in the top left hand corner ?
That is msi after burner
Interesting pc tbh
Does anyone know how this would work with the small psu or am I safer going with a 1030
Hey I have question, could you try to order a regular office pc with a i7 and put a good cheap gpu for Fortnite atleast 144hz in it. I want to see if it would work. Please and thank you.
If the i7 is older than 4th gen i can't reccomend!!
Last month i bought a pc with 150€ and it had gt 1030 sddr4 4x2gb of ram clocked to 1867mhz and i5 4670
Look the prices and specs and check!!
Finally found some nerds who don't know what Attack on Titan is lmao.
Sarcasm?
@@ikram2512 just found it funny they didn't know what the ODM was from.
that’s my pc😁
I never see any the " PC GURUS " test sports game , UFC ,FIFA, MADDEN etc... It's always the same games , Fortnite , Witcher , GTA , cyberpunk 😅
Because sports games are trash and most people playing them do so on console since pc is too hard for them to understand.
@@jorgevespucci9878 not all sports games are trash lol .
Great stuff. Over supply and upgrades so 4th gen stuff should be dead by now.
The only upgrade they can do ir upgrade mobo to next gen
dude you could get an old i5 gen computer and get a better gpu.
thats my old gaming pc
Aggin backwards
Amazing
should have gone with r3 3300x+rx 6600 like i did
what is the psu wattage?
Should be a 180 W Gold efficiency power supply
Don't buy a RX 6400, especially for a PCI-e 3.0 system since it only has 4 lanes!
RX 550?
not WORTH talking about. I know why OEMs use proprietary gear... because they can over charge for spare parts. and that makes them scum and their PCs not worth buying. or talking about.
one look at the front tells me "do not touch this PC except to take the cpu, ram & nvme out of to use in another machine."
Old boring office PC : *Exists*
Someone on the internet after adding a graphics card : it's a gAmINg pC
*only runs at 90C*
It was running at 97c at one point 😢😢😢 I feel bad for the people copying this exact build. For $400 you can do much better than a office computer
@@jonathan-qd1cc Yeah,a 400$ custom built computer from used parts would do better in temps and upgradeability. I'm really tired of "consoler killer" and "gaming pc's" that are nothing more than a tired office pc. If that thing will last more than a month with those temperatures it's gonna be lucky
attack on titan is in fortnite?
