and opening it up for all of you because i mean let's be honest it's an adventure every time which raises the question Linus how is it even possible that you guys haven't thought to build an entire computer with nothing but parts off aliexpress well we did and we're doing it the hell is this and why is it brought to you by glass wire with glasswire you can keep track of the weird stuff that's connecting to your pc even when you're not using it and you can see if a strange device joins your Wi-Fi and block it instantly get 25 off today using code Linus at the link in the video description the ground rules for our little experiment today were pretty simple build a pretty powerful gaming rig without spending so much money that you could have bought it somewhere other than aliexpress we went for the best bang for the butt components that we could find and in cases where there was a tie we went with the more aliexpress option we don't actually have all of the parts that we ordered back on june the 3rd because as i alluded to before shipping time was anywhere from around a week to four months to after five months just cancelling our order out of nowhere but you don't wait to build your pc because your fans didn't arrive so we just grabbed a handful of fans we had kicking around that looked kind of aliexpressy and we're gonna get this going we actually have to build our own case which of course means that we get some very aliexpress instructions oh they must have printed this with their um definitely legit version of autodesk education like education like version this is a virtual water cooling computer case good cooling function has a good diy transform space fantastic so it offers for five dollars the option to customize it yeah but but they didn't customize it and just gave us our money back but sarah had already created the design and we own a laser cutter so nude they included gloves that's actually very important for an acrylic case because otherwise it is going to look disgusting by the time you're done i think there is about a 95 chance that i'm going to finish building the whole rest of the computer before you do that not because you suck because that looks terrible over here i'm going to begin with the motherboard this is the battle axe b450m hd from colorful this puppy was 87.54 with shipping which is not actually a great deal since uh matx b450 boards can be had for like 80 bucks on newegg but uh was the best we could do for a motherboard from aliexpress we're actually off to a pretty good start in terms of fit and finish fits nice it doesn't come out or anything so far i have peeled off one of these i think the longest part of this whole thing is going to be just removing the stupid protective tape our CPU is a really funny one now obviously it's a b450 board so we're going to be putting a regular old AMD CPU in it that doesn't sound particularly aliexpress until you consider that this ryzen 7 2700 is 10 cheaper than according to pc part picker that has ever been sold for the seller offers a lifetime warranty and from the listing it seems like it might be refurbished or not we don't know you know what no this looks brand new huh like it doesn't come with a cooler that's probably that 10 price delta oh now RAM i am expecting to be able to find some very very chinese RAM this comes with a little tiny broom curiously the broom is probably the most chinese thing about this memory because it's clearly using micron chips which to my knowledge are not manufactured in china so only the module assembly is probably done there superior quality lifetime warranty factory wholesale professional service what is 163.com the website that you can go on there and to look at news and they also have like their email service so this is just like a free email oh yeah i'm sure that lifetime warranty is gonna work out great for you 10 bash wow it's actually rated at 3 200 megahertz cl 16. that's not bad but then 16 gigs of RAM for about 60 dollars and change is about par for the course off sites like newegg so the lesson here is don't buy RAM off aliexpress not because this isn't going to work it'll probably work it's micron chips but just because why so far the instructions are actually not too bad so i feel like this is going to go relatively smoothly the biggest thing is if you're not experienced putting stuff like this together it would be really easy to like over tighten one of these screws and just blow up all the acrylic so just be careful of that and you should be fine is this just completely not the same thing you ordered at all i'm so confused did you order two coolers i'm going to go see if we have the actual cooler okay bye-bye hey we got the snowman this pup will run you just under 40 dollars with shipping and that's if you select the with deer option but i'm not actually sure oh it's picked with a picture of it sure that's better this is weird so each of these fans actually has five conductors and then two of them are just terminated with heat shrink and just hanging off over here and the other four are hardwired into a single four pin power connector so you don't need a y adapter or anything like that to mount it which is pretty cool but i also just i wonder what that wire was for this says right on the package AMD and Intel but this is clearly an AMD only mount right here and i don't see any other accessories it's a good thing we went AMD for our system how little would you have to pay yourself to justify assembling your own case versus just paying a little bit extra and getting one that's already built i don't know like for something like this i'd prefer to build it myself because then i know that like it's all built correctly i'd say it mostly just depends on if like you think this looks cool for some reason what is a bit interesting is that all of these they kind of slide into like the 80 20 rails that we have here and then they like have little notches that hold it together except for the bottom one which instead of sliding in just lays on the bottom oh i understand why it's so that there's additional intake room on the bottom it's a foot oh yeah i see that's not a great approach but they also could have just had this come down further they definitely could have the last piece we can assemble before alex is done with the case is the SSD at 60 bucks this can be anywhere from a great deal all the way to a total ripoff and we have no way of knowing because the website for golden fur's 512 gig NVMe SSD says mm the pcb color flash chips type flash chip number may different depend on each batch one thing i really do want to know is if this is a dram-less design so that's why i'm peeling the sticker off here and it is so it's not great dang it i think i lost the bet i lost the game i'm gonna do it tool-less style how does this go in hey so i won then nice man i love working here not from the work the work is yeah it's work but i love you guys all right let's uh let's go ahead and put this ihope shield in does it only stick in from the one side it definitely doesn't grab as well as it did on the other side but it's in ah hey fortunately we've got that uh that other cooler the alzai that we thought was for this build but actually we don't know what it's for we can use this yay that worked out also RGB uh okay now i'm good alex no zip ties required it's beautiful hey there it is this motherboard has two fan headers including the CPU header but it does have an RGB header on board oh sick this lack of fan headers has unexpected consequences so i had to string together one molex to four pin and then two y splitters in order to get the four fan connectors that i need to plug in all the rest of my fans here the best part is that we're not really saving any money the only thing i know for sure is that the power supply is either going to make this less stable or more stable now we're not sure yet if this is 800 watts or a thousand watts we do know that it is non-modular and we are expecting it to have all of the cables and connectors we need and wow be incredible classy this don't hate the game hate the game player you ready for the weight comparison 1200 grams all right um hmm 1900 grams also the cables are supported by the table also that's an 850. also it's an 850 watt power supply dare me to plug this into an rtx 3090 no theoretically it'll run it actually it won't so much for my theory about it helping with the structural rigidity at all this i'm expecting to actually be fine once again colorful is the only real like decent brand over in china that i can think of that we don't also have access to either in europe or north america so this was the most aliexpress thing we could find as for why we went 2000 series instead of 3000 series well like i said we waited a long time for these parts and the 2000 series was relevant when we ordered this in fairness i don't think i can get the card out without tearing apart the case but truthfully that's not saying much after some scrubbing it looks like the laser did go through i don't know wait there how's that can you see it can you see the shirt got him lttstore.com alex yeah yeah done goofed it's keyed it only goes on one way the last thing i want to see before we try out the whole aliexpress gaming experience yeah there's peripherals too guys is if adding this other side panel helps the rigidity a little bit theoretically it should this is now a box instead of uh whatever we had before it's better it's a lot better you know it's like hey you know not even coming apart at all ah that's a case right yeah remember my theory about the air intake under the power supply there huh all we got is this little sliver right here the rest of it the acrylic goes all the way down to the table oh these are these are liar RGB fans like you were talking about own led light mouse pad oh my god look at this graphic what even is this did you know this had like a giant like undead dragon thing on it thick and smooth waterproof and comfortable i think that about describes it i've got a keyboard with uh g-shan uh blue clicky switches uh but when you press it it does definitely have the kakakaka sound yes that's not a bad automata pf4 you know this is far from the worst like cheap aliexpress gaming mouse that i've encountered a bmw 3360 sensor compatible with all kinds of motherboard Windows xp7 810 operating system dang this is 27 it actually feels like pretty good rubber grip like huh this is a little less confidence inspiring but hey at least it's got a braided cable this is the most hardcore braided cable that i have ever encountered aliexpress gaming time we ready boys and girls give it the little reach around here oh is that plugged into the wall did you hit the power button oh hey there we go oh no i don't think it plugs in all the way alex because of a clearance issue with the acrylic
