Single slot GPU, my beloved
Haha it’s a beast
this is so real
@@RandomGaminginHD I think it would be interesting to pit this pc against an older APU like the 3400G.
@@koreannom Perhaps a cost-vs-performance comparison between this discreet GPU and APUs that can be had for
MSI 6800GT on RED PCB!?? and 1 molex for power = ♥
R5 2600 and a RX 480 would be an interesting ultra budget build. Paying any money for this would be painful.
Yeah still a good combo.
Man, Ryzen 5 2600 my beloved is now considered ultra budget :(
Gotta upgrade soon...
@@Simtatic I had a 2600 then a 3600, just moved to the 5700x3D, definitely worth the $$ for frames if youre gaming, and even unzipping folders and things like that are quite a bit quicker
@@storm2666 Of course a huge factor in unpacking archives has to do with your storage system. If you are unpacking an archive from and to the same drive, even a fast nvme one, it will slow down a lot when both the DRAM and SLC buffers get full. The slowest would be from/to the same HDD, and the fastest from/to different nvme SSDs. Other combos will fall in between.
My i7 2600k and RX480 served me well. I have only changed to a gtx 1060 lol. RX 6700xt next. then cpu. mb and ram time hahhaha
It would be madness for anyone to buy the G7400 when the 12100F is a similar price and gives much more performance. You are a true hero, spending your money poorly for our entertainment. I salute you, sir.

@@rlrihards948 That's why I only buy things will lots of (non-stock) photos. I've not had any bad purchases doing that. Lots of photos and high ratings.
I3 10100f is a better deal that the G7400
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 Sure, but it's LGA 1200, where the G7400 and 12100F are both on LGA 1700. That's the main reason I mentioned that one in particular.
@@stratuvarious8547 good point, if you're gonna be looking for something on the same socket, might as well be something that performs a lot better for maybe not much more or about the same.
Potato PCs are fun. It’s like taking a weak and slow Toyota Corolla and doing tweaks here and there and watch it perform a little better than it normally could. Knowing it will never be a beast.
That's exactly how I feel with my school-owned M1 MacBook Air with 128 gigs of storage and 8 gigs of ram. It COULD be great, but never will
@@bigbubba0439 i mean tbh as bad as gaming can be on the arm architecture macs emulation is actually fairly solid
you can even get some switch and ps3 titles running fine on the base m1 air too
its pretty fun messing w/ apple stuff esp on the emulation side of stuff id highly recommend you try it
@@bigbubba0439 For the time being it doesn't have to be great. Perhaps when a future owner has it.
My 96 Corolla has rust falling off it, it get's lighter every day, which means it's faster
When did you achieve 527k subs? I used to live until now thinking you had about 100k, like when I discovered you 😂 Congratulations !
Videos are likeable or how you say in english but anyway it is so nice to see video of what I like..
I called a few of my mates and sorted it
rich from digital foundry might have contributed a bit of it since he can't just stop shouting it out every DF direct lmao.
This would be the perfect pc for patrolling the mojave hoping for a nuclear winter.
@distrusts sounds like you aren't running enough mods, mate.
"Potato" is an important category of gaming PC that is all too under-represented in the tech press and techtuber space.
Thanks for this content. Keeping the potato dream alive!
Boil it, mash it, stick it in a stew.
Appreciate your idea and doing this
lol omg thanks for making this. i thought about throwing together a parts list similar to this a while back.
This is exactly why I love this channel haha , helps keep money in your pocket!
0:11 moves mouse looking for next recommendation. ya got me
i love it when you get quickly in to the point of video and not try to stall the lenght : >
Poor maschine 😢 it doesn't know what's coming for it yet ❤
You should also build a high end (13900K+4090) pc and do the same tests with it and see how many years it takes to become a patato like this build.
Maybe 7 or 10 year later it will be a potato. Based on my expeince.
I built my pc back in 2017, (I cant belive it was 7 years ago!!! 😂😂😂) Gigabyte ab350, Ryzen 7 1700 , XFX RX580, 16GB 2666 DDR4, 256GB SSD. 1 TB HDD. for about 1200$.
Games from 2022 and before runs perfect. But new AAA games like Starfield runs like crap, 35 fps (starfield itself is kind crap too 😂)
I did not install Alan wake 2, but It will run like 10 fps! ( its a walking simulator. anyway! Who cares! 😂 )
The only game from 2023 which runs well in my pc is Prince of Persia Lost Crown.
So yeah! My pc is now potato!
@@Mohammad_E89 I built a PC similar to yours in January 2018. R7 1700 using stock Wraith Spire LED CPU cooler, ASRock AB350 Pro 4 mobo, 2x8GB G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3000 CL15, a 128GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD salvaged from another PC, a refurbished 4TB HGST HDD, a Corsair CX750 PSU and an Antec P8 case for $600 US including tax and free shipping from Newegg, as well as a used Gigabyte RX 480 8GB for $110 from the Facebook marketplace(so $710 total). About $500 less than yours(if your dollar is the US dollar as well) but I did already have the SSD. Since then I've swapped some parts and added some parts, with more swapping to do. I've added two more sticks of ram, but since I'm still on the R7 1700 I had to reduce the ram clock to 2666 for stability. I now boot from a 2TB Intel 660p NVMe SSD and have a couple more HDDs(16TB Toshiba for my Steam Library, 10TB WD Elements external USB 3.0 HDD for my other game libraries like Epic, GoG, Ubisoft, EA, IndieGala, RockStar) and the graphics card first to a Vega 56, then a PowerColor RX 6700 XT, and currently an ASRock Phantom Gaming RX 6800 XT(which I eventually intend to undervolt and overclock to RX 6900 XT performance). I've swapped my ASUS 23 inch IPS monitor for a TCL 43 inch 4k HDR Smart TV(both 60 Hz). Went from a Microsoft Sidewinder x4 keyboard to a Razer Cynosa Lite, and swapped the pre installed fans in my Antec P8 for some Phanteks fans. I guess I also added a Logitech F310 gamepad which I haven't used very much as of yet. as for additional hardware to swap, I've got both a R9 3900X(with Wraith Prism CPU cooler) and a R7 5800X3D. I need to update my bios to support the R9, then use the R9 to update the bios again so it supports the X3D. I haven't done dust removal in a while and my temps are kinda high when gaming, so I'll do that very soon(and reposition fans to get air blowing on my HDDs. I saw recent temps of nearly 60C which are not good for the longevity of those drives). I need to copy data from my old PC to this one, and then I should be good for a while.
I think he had a 14900K sample from Intel for a little while, but I haven't seen it used in some time now so I guess he had to give it back. No way I see him getting a 4090 any time soon. I think he also got a RTX 4080 Super to sample, but I think I've seen him use it more so maybe he didn't have to give it back? I think the most I've seen him spend on a part is maybe 500 on a RTX 3070(unless he managed to get it for less used or something). I highly doubt he would spend more than that on a part, since it seems to go against the nature of the channel.
I like this kind of vids cuz I can gauge how low end friendly a game is
Good idea. It would be interesting to see how long a higher end machine lasts for comparison. And compare that to a new low end some years from now.
I was rewatching Iceberg Tech's video about the RX 6300 only last night so I had that weird card on the brain lol. Can't wait to see you try GTA6 on this thing! 😅
great video.. can you try the same using chimeraos to see if it gets any better??
Now that right there is a magnificent spud.
It really is a challenge to find a modern-ish GPU to pair with that Pentium Gold. Maybe an Arc A310 or a GTX 1630 would be slow enough.
The A310 is a beast for hardware transcoding though
I have a stronger GPU but a weaker CPU, can't wait to finally upgrade back to the AM4 platform soon.
I've always loved how modest your PCs are compared to other tech youtubers with their RTX 4090 Extreme Editions and stuff, theirs are so "enthusiast" level it almost feels alien.
I did run DIrt Rally in g3258 with a gtx760. And the Dirt Rally 2 with a gtx1060 6g. So this combo would run it as well. With the same ram as well.
So, my tip is to use dirt rally 1 as a benchmark. And use rivatuner to lock the fps in games, which can boost frametime, even when it doesn't make sense.
Thank you, your videos are awesome!
How much better is that RX 6300 (didn't even know it existed before this video) compared to modern IGPUs anyway?
It feels like such a ridiculously niche product, great find and a perfect fit for the video
That's oddly better averages than I expected. Those .1%s though, that's pretty well spot on. I honestly can't imagine that cpu survives the year, lol.
On my 5800X3D, 32GB of 3600 RAM, and 6900 XT I'm currently getting 55 FPS in Fallout 4... of course, the 300 Mods I'm using might have something to do with it. 😂
I restrict F4 to 60fps on my 5950x 3090 system. It runs happier that way.
k
@@Safetytrousers i use a gt 710 best budget gpu there is for me
I tried out the slightly beefier RX 6400 and it wasn't the worst experience I've ever had. I'm surprised at how many games only 2 GB of VRAM can actually run.
When you test Heldivers 2 you should test in an online match because the cpu usage is a lot higher and affects the fps quite a bit on weaker cpus
Love your vids man been watching since 2016, that being said 1080p viideos still??? lmao my 1440p monitor is begging for higher vid quality.
Great idea and concept for videos!
But testing Helldivers alone at 1 difficulty is like testing FPS in tomb raider pause menu lol, is practically useless.
Its going to be interesting how far that little PC can go in the future. I remember trying to pull every little performance out of my pc aswell as games. Had to get FPS Configs for everything like Blacklight retribution or TF2
I'd say 3 years at MAXimum, because 8/16 is already sluggish nowdays
I think that is running with PCIe 4.0, which I bet the RX6300 likes.
8GB seems like an artificial limitation. If a game requires 16GB, will you then just not test it, or will you swap memory?
The guy turned into old LowSpecGamer.
Haha loved his video guides back in the day. Really like his new stuff too actually
That build kinda reminds me of that HP h-1110 Sandy Bridge baby Sis had some ten years ago, with the venerable i5-2400 and the EVGA GTX 660 Ti.
Good times.
Nowadays that'd make an awesome Windows XP "retro" gaming machine!
still better than my pc. Goddammit!
Yes 😢
In Helldivers 2 we noticed that your cpu performance can be improved by your teammates. Certain AI calculations are given out to clients (players) and the game allocates it depending the players configs. One of my friends tried the game first on his laptop with an 8300H, very weak for the game. But when he played on his desktop with a 5600X we all got 10-15 fps plus and our cpu usage dropped significantly.
2:18 bruhhh it just recently got playable too cause of the new update even with a beast of a pc a year or two ago you would be blessed to see 60fps without modding it
I have a modern day potato PC and it runs pretty decent. Recently my AMD Radeon 6670 GPU just failed and I decided to buy a new PC.. I'm tired of dealing with this potatoes PC but I still gonna keep it for another stuff that I can do.. It's like a hobby owning this type of PC and do something to it.. Lol
I think this has definitely crossed the line from "gaming PC" to "a PC that you can choose to try some games on" lol.
There is no such thing has a gaming PC any PC can run a game the term gaming PC is invented by manufactures so they can slap a higher price on their goods.
While that's true, a PC can definitely be built and spec'd out "for gaming" specifically. A workstation or office PC are different from a gaming PC; a difference can still be found.
I’d love to see what Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor look like on this
How far back would you have to go until this outperforms that years "top pc"? How about vs Core2duo and gtx8800?
I believe that RX 6300 still outperforms my old GTX 770. Not the "top PC" card of the day but close enough, I'd say the 6300 would hold up against mid-2010s hardware. If he's got enough old junk laying around or is willing to pick up an old 4th or 6th generation Intel rig from back then it could be interesting to compare it just to get an idea of what one could expect if they built a comparable system.
It's all new components, right? Will faster RAM work? Is it supported? Is RX 6500 XT worth it? Or GTX 1630
I'd really like to see the quad core Intel N100 on an mATX board paired with a modern low-power GPU. The power consumption figures could be amazingly low for the performance such a build offers.
A few years ago you tested DIRT Rally quite a bit, maybe now it's worth checking again
U should do a comparison of this pc (modern ultra budget pc) vs used market budget pc both (same price point)
hello from germany, sorry but i need to asked... what do do at first... the video or the voiceover?
G'day Random,
🤔G7400 vs 3000G ???
affordable pc, love this
ill keep this pc in my prayers, its gonna need it lol.
'Keepin it for as long as possible' - you might not have much choice! 😂😂
RX 6300? I remember when you firstly reviewed this GPU, didn't it have something crazy like a 32 bit bus?
What an absolute throwback for the bin lol. Any chance you can cover a high tier throwback to the almost current gen? Today I built a 1600x/m320/650w psu/ 16gb ddr4/1060 6gb/1tb ssd build for a friends kid using spare parts I had laying about since about 2020. I was mega surprised when he logged into Fortnite at a max 60fps and it played extremely well considering it is a modern oldschool piece of parts that were good 5 years ago but barely entry by todays standards. I did let him know I had updated the bios in case he wanted to toss a 6700xt and 3600 in it to come up a bit further when he turns into a teen.
Those specs are beast to me, imagine how crap is my PC is then for 2024, can't even load spreadsheets properly..
@@FloatSamplesGT710 Look my dude, for shits and giggles I still play Doom 2 original version on a 2011 ddr3 / am3 /sabertooth 990fx/ fx 8120 cpu and an rx290. I bet I could get that old crap box tro squeeze out a few levels in witcher 3 lol. I feel your pain. I have been a builder and nerd since 94 and do understand it is very expensive to be a master race gamer. It is why I build all my friends kids pcs with crap I have left around the shop and house. Im sure in 3 years I will have loads of overpriced garbage 4060s to give away as no one buys this shit yet steam has some false number stating loads of gamers use them which is false as it is logged by user in internet cafes in china where 100 people a day use 1 system. Anyhow, the rx 580 is going for about 60 quid just now, hope you get your hands on 1 to step up and grab an am4 board in 3 months when the prices fall out.
@@fuzzylumpkins6034 I Currently own i5-11400f, GTX 1650 4GB, 16GB RAM @3200MHz (8+8), 60hz 1080p TV, and I'm completely fine with it.. and I upgraded in 2022 and before I had i5-6400 GT 710 2GB GDDR5 with 8GB RAM 2133Mhz. So compared to my old PC my current PC feels like a beast... Also I don't play much competitive games. Also I do lock all of my games frames to 60FPS using Rivertuner app and msi afterburner..
If possible, can you also make a video while including the Current build of Windows being used in each video?
We audience have no idea if Stock (Vanilla) of Windows 10/11 even suitable for ultra budget PC.
Or, are you using a custom Windows with debloated operating system?
I figured out why a lot of viewers sometimes complaining in your video: "Hey, I have the exact same PC specs, bur why is mine perform worse than yours?"
Ah ok I’ll be sure to mention windows version from now on :)
Unlimited Pentium Powah!!!!
I own a rx 5300 for the same reason just cause bro
Thanks now i have to find this 1
Hellblade 2 dream machine
Anyone remember when you could use certain types of APU and AMD GPU and have them in crossfire? I wonder how that does nowadays and what the best APU/GPU combo was. I always wanted to try that personally.
I just built a i3 10100f and RX 6600 computer 8 GB of ram 450.00 will play most games nicely i would not go any lower on the cpu or gpu or ram i do use it for the fallout games and Alan Wake 2010 so for older games and it runs Linux so you don't even need to pay for the os i would someday go to 16 GB of ram but a lot of older games ran on single core you did not need 8 cores 16 threads so this is a nice computer for those games plus Manjaro Linux when watching a youtube video like this only uses 2 GB of ram so plus plus. good all around.
with 450 you could've gotten a better deal with an rx 5700 and an amd cpu, but for linux intel has better drivers
@@14augustneverforget I choose the 6600 because it's not going to use more than 100 watts of power this computer does not get hot and when Summertime comes that will be important gets hot in this apartment even with air conditioning i have a 5700xt but at 1080p the fans ramp up to 3000 rpm and the card uses more than 200 watts of power so it's not worth it anymore to use it i just let it sit on a shelf.
Definitely get another stick of RAM when you can
@@chillhour6155 I was using a 2X4 so two sticks of ram and for those old games that is plenty but that being said i already upgraded the ram 2X8 3200 CL 16 its fine most of those old game used 1 core and 2 to 4 GB's of ram but i upgraded the ram an gpu i put a RTX 4060 in it runs beautiful.
You don’t have to pay for Windows, it runs fine unactivated.
you should review the Dell RX6500 low profile
I have it paired to my 13100f and it's pretty good
i would love to see how overwatch 2 runs on this system. also it would be interesting to see a comparison of many amd apus and how they run games. i am still using a amd apu from 2014 bulldozer apu. would be interesting for me to see how much better the ryzen apus are and if the vega apus are much better in graphically demanding games.
I think there is a video on this channel which does just that. Stever compared one of the newest and most powerful pre Ryzen APUs like a A12 9900 or something(which is four integer cores in two modules plus 512 GCN based stream processors or 8CUs) versus a low end Ryzen based APU like a Athlon 200GE or Athlon 3000G(2C/4T, 3CUs or 192 GCN based stream processors). After running through a battery of game tests, I believe the Athlon won most or all of them. I think I've also seen at least one test(can't remember if it's on this channel or another tech channel) of the 3000G versus the built in graphics in most AM5 CPUs(2 RDNA based CUs or 128 stream processors, higher clock speeds, dual channel DDR5 versus dual channel DDR4) and I believe those trade blows which is fairly impressive to me.
Mate, rate my Desktop that I'm planning to use until the end of next year:
Intel Core i5 4460, 16GB DDR3, Nvidia GTX 1050ti. Most modern games: Horizon-Zero-Dawn and the sequel run bearly at 30FPS (sometimes at 20) , Cyberpunk 2077 does with a lot of glitches, GTAV runs reasonably well, RDR2 at 35fps, sometimes at 25 in a highly populated areas.. So, I decided to buy play small games.. And thank God, that I own a PS4 slim
Why even wait to upgrade? You could find a GPU card that would really upgrade your gameplay for cheap, if you just looked. But, better to (probably) just update whole system.
I had an i5-4440 with a GTX 1660 Super in my camper for days at the lake getting rained in and it did very well. I played Conan: Exiles, Satisfactory, U Boat, and some less intensive games on it and it really held up well. This year I upgraded to an i7-6700 machine I had laying around (I work in IT so I regularly get free PCs which aren't Windows 11 compatible as I upgrade systems at work) and the extra CPU power definitely helped bring out the potential of the 1660 Super at 1080P. Your 1050Ti was one of the top budget GPUs for a number of years but it's finally getting a little long in the tooth, should run anything pre-2020 very well though.
@@406Steven I spent ~30 years in IT, before retiring in 2018. Today, I get my grins & giggles by "Maxing Out" old "junk" and selling it. My next project is going to be to downgrade my 2-fan EVGA 1080Ti to an i5-4460 system, and upgrade the 16GB 1866Mhz RAM to 32GB. Lastly, I'll buy an i7-4790K, delid it, and apply liquid metal. Will I be able to sell it for what I paid for all of the parts? NO WAY!!! But, will I get hours, days, weeks, and months of entertainment out of it? Yep. It's MY hobby. I don't do sports. So, I don't spend money on sports equipment or tickets to sporting events. I have no idea how much movie tickets and popped corn cost. I don't do that sort of thing either. I "normally" do this an average of 3 times a year. The anticipation in waiting for an online auction for "just the right part" fuels the excitment, which I use to design/plan my next tweak (to the system). Could I afford to go out and buy an i9-14900K and an RTX5090? Yea. But, where's the fun in that? Wait!!! Almost forgot to mention that I "theme" my builds, and name them. My last build was based on a BLACK/GOLD ***GA-Z97X-UD5H-BK*** motherboard. So, I named it ARMY, in honor of the United States Army.
@@curtis.albrecht.79 You sound like me, I get joy from seeing what older hardware can handle and I take old office machines to build gaming PCs for my friends. Otherwise I fix them up to be usable machines to give away to Love, INC for single parents and such so they can have a PC for their kids, work from home jobs, etc. I've been to the theater for Dune and Dune 2, otherwise it's been about a decade since I was last a "movie-goer." I use the cost of a movie ticket to justify a lot of my hobbies, though I think that's perhaps a bit unfair but hey if I can get 10 hours of fun out of a $5 game that still blows away a 2 hour movie!
my 4790 w a 1650sff is rockin. even slipped a nvme driver into the bios for pciex4 slot boot....woot.
You will have to upgrade the cpu. Some games have already blocked dual cores for about 10 years already
How does Doom Eternal do on this kit?
"It's pretty hard to find" explains why I've never heard of it.
I have a similar case from Fractal.
Back in the days I owned a pc with intel g630 cpu and nvidia GT 630 2gb what a days..
now I have the 14700k and 4080S
Ended with the same cpu and gpu as you but started with an Inspiron 1545 that had a pentium t4400 and some type of gma graphics chip (not sure which one due to poor documentation, maybe gma 4500?) even back in 2011 that thing chugged like no tomorrow, I don’t miss lagging on 720p youtube videos
6:00 I think the case needs some airbrushing with some kind of logo like say the spud rotter 3000 😂
horizon forbidden west may be interesting. i'm having to turn things down to medium on my 2080 super for some of it coz my 8GB of vram isn't enough.
Metro Exodus enhanced edition. Will raytracing destroy the CPU or the GPU more?
I thought you were coming for my 3060 but I should have expected... this, lmao.
Kinda similar to my system (Pentium G5700, Quadro T400)
Although recently upped it to i3 8100 and 16GB RAM which I got from a friend (at half price) now It can breath a little. haha
put up this bad boy vs a similarly priced but higher tdp used parts pc with older generation parts and compare the fps with the same graphic settings while ignoring the wattage and psu costs, that would compare the value to fps ratio.
can we talk about the power consumption of about 40w combined ? thats impressive
My current daily potato PC is a 12th gen Celeron G6900 paired with a GT 1030 and 16GB of DDR4-3200 ram. Works great. It only has 2 intel P -cores and 4mb of L3 cache. Does everything I need at present.
Upgrade your processor is good enough and also the motherboard...
@@FloatSamplesGT710 I have a 12th gen core i7-12700k that I'm gathering parts for.All I need is a bigger power supply. I'm also going to install an ARC A770 16GB LE graphics card. I also have a Ryzen 5 3600 rig that acts up every now and then. My intel rigs always run solid. Getting rid of all of my AMD stuff and stick with intel. Cheers
This is testament to just how far computers have come. That's some pretty decent performance for a proper budget build.
Absolutely! What's really incredible is how far integrated graphics have come. I have a 7th generation Intel NUC with an i5-7260U that I use for my Plex, Conan, and Satisfactory servers that doubles as a HTPC and I have been re-playing Far Cry 3 on that...7 year old laptop CPU with integrated graphics and it rocks FC3 at 1080P just fine.
On the plus side, the SSD is easy accessible.
My old Phenom II 965BE quad core (2009) at 3.4Ghz oc'd to 3.6GHz, 16GB of ddr3 and the R9 280x 3GB (2013.) out perform that computer.
Using much more power but still...
would you say like xbox 360 graphics ?
Having extensively used a G7400 on a secondary computer, with some modern perks (DDR5 6000mhz ram, I got it local, great deal... Way overkill, my XMP with the Pentium is stuck around 4000mhz without instability) and some underperks (Intel Arc a380, but I upgraded to my kid's old GPU for this build recently - so RX5500, but 8GB, so overkill again).
The G7400 is the little processor that couldn't, but really puts up a fight - for a 2 core chip, the little guy is pretty mean.
I can't imagine going beyond an RX5500/RX580/GTX1660/OLD Titan Series... Though the Titan Black, for me, was a step too far back with the G7400 - when it worked, it really worked - but it was borked because of limited driver support (which seems a shame for that 700 series to get stuck where they were, except the worst of them....)
Great video, look forward to seeing you play around with my favorite potato chip, the LAST Pentium... at least for now.
I still game on a core Duo, 6 gb RAM and GT 9500 on mostly old games
I love how he decimated the house and then just puts a wooden block in there.Minecraft is really a beautiful game. 😎🚬
Can you play dota 2 in this system?
About to re play Call of Duty singleplayer campaings, kinda in the mood for some modern snipin, a small brake from Fallout and Zombie games.
Only remember some scenes here n there, so i figure its time.
Also thinkin about Deus EX (pistol or machine gun only challence), could be nasty.
Gotta stack ammo like a madman.
OG Deus Ex? Still my all-time favorite game! When it comes to modern hardware there's no question about being powerful enough to run it but I do notice that textures don't seem to render right. If nothing else I get a green tinge on the ground and various other textures when run on modern systems. I usually bust out a Pentium 4 or Athlon 64 system with an older GPU to play it with better hardware compatibility (though the power consumption vs. performance of those is atrocious compared to what we have now!)
@@406Steven Would want remixes of Deus EX or brand new game ?
Would want open world version, similar to Cyberpunk maybe ?
@@gcmanuel85x I'm happy with the game the way it is, just wish it would run better on newer hardware. That said, a remix would be welcomed as I think these days we've worked out a more standardized control layout. Going back to old games I'm reminded about how you really had to learn what all the buttons did back in the day, things were far less intuitive! So maybe run it on Unreal Engine 5 for better support for newer hardware, higher resolution textures, and re-map the controls to something more intuitive? Seems like a winner to me!
@@406Steven How about both ways ?
Fresh new game like Cyberpunk, but then include the old ones like as DLC.
10 buildings to explore is hardly open world, feels more like a Mario game.
I dont think basebuilding would be for Deus EX, but renting an office and manage it to be like private eye and then the missions could be endless.
I don't have the data to back it up, but a used office PC with a quad core or better processor would have to be, in almost all scenarios & localities, be better "bang for buck" for the same price as a new, latest refresh, Pentium build - let alone a 12th gen Core i3 build.
It's honestly pretty impressive for what it is. I expected it to perform way worse! You really can game on a potato.
How many fps does ur pc do in beamng?
Nice
The spaceship thing on Helldivers 2 is weird, but I've experienced it before while using steam deck. I think it has something to do with the lighting on the ship somehow.
Ah could be. I was expecting a really bad frame rate elsewhere so it was a nice surprise
it could be the loading in the background. maybe it loads things while you fly in the spaceship and that is what makes the framerate tank.
@@DanielRumbacher No because it does it no matter how long you've sat there, and if that was the case everytime you went to a new planet it would have a big lag spike, because it would ditch everything it just loaded and load a new thing. Loading happens on the load screen, and terrain generation happens on the load screen that happens as you fly to a new set of missions.
What was the total price of this build? If u mentioned it I missed it
depends of the country
Id like to see this GPU up against the mighty hd 7970 3gb
Haha, me and my i3-3240 and r5 430 are jealous of this system
I wonder if a Ryzen 3400G PC with a good 16 GB kit of RAM would outperform this in some instances? I've seen refurbished, well-speced mini PCs with 3400G for around 200 dollars here in Poland, they are so incredibly tempting even though I have absolutely no need for one. xD
No. 3400g is worse. It can still play games like Skyrim just fine though.
@@samuelswenson1505 worse for the GPU part for sure, but at least it is 4 cores 8 threads, I wonder if it wouldn't be more consistent in percentile lows. :)
@@alchemik666 It just might be more smooth in some games. 3400g isn't that old after all.
how is the 0.1% low higher than the minimum fps?
I forgot how much better the combo of an i3-10100 and RX 6400 performs.
That's quite the sack of potatoes that you have there. Still better than my PC though.
I would've done an RX5500 8 gig card. I'm sure that would've handled it better than that 2 gig 6300.
For an ultra low power potato PC still capable of playing games, even the quad core Intel N100 with a Micro-ATX motherboard might have been a better choice. It outperforms Sandy Bridge/Ivy Bridge quad core i7's/i5's whilst consuming only a few watts of power.
I just got a new build, 4 gb ddr 2 ram gtx 750 1 tb HDD and unknown intel CPU, I will install a hyper light linux distro on it and use it for a movie watching device
Sounds like a good light emulation system too, if the CPU is good enough :)
If not, Wolfdale Core 2s are cheap nowadays if the board will take it!
I just finished a Q6600 w/ 4 GB and a GTX950 (overkill) for Windows XP glory. Time to drag out the small box games.
I can also watch movies on my tablet
@@drewnewby I'm kicking myself for throwing out my Q6600 setup but it was a HUGE power hog. Given that XP can't really utilize multiple cores I've got anything from Pentium 4s to Core i5/i7 machines and Athlon 64/A64 X2 just laying around for XP stuff. The problem is pretty much everything I want to play on an XP machine already runs on Windows 11 so for the proper retro experience I have to bust out the Pentium 3 Windows 98 machine, still with the chattering mechanical hard drive and GeForce 2 for the full experience.
Wow 😮
What's the best budget build bro?
Intel 12400F or 12600KF with a RX 6650 XT. An entire build, new, around $500-600.
@@drewnewby thanks for the information
@@callumbush1 Yup, 12th generation Intel stuff is a solid choice. I recently saw a 13th generation i5 on sale for under $200 which is a solid buy though that depends on your budget. Ryzen 5 5500 with a motherboard and 32GB of RAM can be had under $200 so that's also worth considering (I bought one of those setups to upgrade my Plex/game/file server). GPU-wise I think drewnewby is on the right track with the 6650 XT, very hard to beat the performance per dollar of that card. If you're hoping for more VRAM a 16GB Arc A770 can be had affordably if you're willing to wait out a sale. I picked up my Sparkle A770 16GB for $260 last fall & I paid $280 for my ASRock A770 16GB but the performance really depends on the game--some games it's performing at nearly 4070 levels and others you may as well save $100 and buy an RX 6600.
