00:00:00.700 --> 00:00:01.900
If you're a budget gamer,

00:00:01.900 --> 00:00:04.860
who's less concerned with 4K 120 Hertz

00:00:04.860 --> 00:00:09.580
and more concerned with running any games at all,

00:00:09.580 --> 00:00:13.080
then this video is for you.

00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:15.860
Riley here, who's actually gonna be doing some more work

00:00:15.860 --> 00:00:18.600
here on the LTT channel moving forward,

00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:23.600
was given the task of taking our previous $69 gaming PC,

00:00:23.860 --> 00:00:26.900
which frankly was barely deserving of the title PC,

00:00:26.900 --> 00:00:30.720
let alone gaming, and taking it out behind the shed

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:33.340
and putting a bullet in its head.

00:00:33.340 --> 00:00:35.140
Oh, that's violent.

00:00:35.140 --> 00:00:38.720
And looky what he found on eBay.

00:00:38.720 --> 00:00:43.720
A full PC for, get this, $27 US.

00:00:45.260 --> 00:00:47.080
27 bucks.

00:00:47.080 --> 00:00:48.860
And can it game?

00:00:48.860 --> 00:00:51.460
Actually, yeah, kind of.

00:00:51.460 --> 00:00:53.260
And we're gonna show you guys how

00:00:53.260 --> 00:00:55.460
after this message from GlassWire.

00:00:55.460 --> 00:00:56.380
GlassWire allows you

00:00:56.380 --> 00:00:59.480
to instantly see your current and past network activity,

00:00:59.480 --> 00:01:02.560
detect malware, and block badly behaving apps

00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:04.620
on your PC or Android device.

00:01:04.620 --> 00:01:17.050
Use offer code Linus to get 25% off at the link below.

00:01:17.050 --> 00:01:19.630
We always say that when you set out to build a PC,

00:01:19.630 --> 00:01:21.290
the most important consideration

00:01:21.290 --> 00:01:23.770
is what you intend to use it for.

00:01:23.770 --> 00:01:26.050
That's how you avoid spending too much

00:01:26.050 --> 00:01:28.690
or cheaping out and hurting the experience.

00:01:28.690 --> 00:01:32.190
So then, knowing that we weren't gonna be running

00:01:32.190 --> 00:01:34.890
Shadow of the Tomb Raider with RTX on,

00:01:35.270 --> 00:01:38.470
we set out with what we hoped would be a reasonable goal,

00:01:38.470 --> 00:01:41.630
running casual and eSports games like Minecraft,

00:01:41.630 --> 00:01:44.590
League of Legends, Dota 2, and CSGO

00:01:44.590 --> 00:01:46.330
with Overwatch for extra credit.

00:01:46.330 --> 00:01:50.580
So do you wanna run me through this beauty?

00:01:50.580 --> 00:01:55.580
So this is a Dell Optiplex 380, beautiful machine.

00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:00.060
It's got an Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 in it,

00:02:00.060 --> 00:02:05.060
four gigs of DDR3 RAM, and a 160 gig hard drive.

00:02:05.780 --> 00:02:07.340
That's 7,200 RPM.

00:02:07.340 --> 00:02:08.180
Beautiful.

00:02:08.180 --> 00:02:09.380
It didn't come with Windows 10.

00:02:09.380 --> 00:02:10.440
And a parallel port.

00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:11.280
Oh, yeah.

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:12.120
Oh, yeah.

00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:12.940
You need one of those.

00:02:12.940 --> 00:02:13.780
Oh, yeah, there, buddy.

00:02:13.780 --> 00:02:14.900
Oh, yeah, buddy.

00:02:14.900 --> 00:02:16.180
Drivers for everything.

00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:17.020
$27.

00:02:17.020 --> 00:02:18.320
For 27 bucks.

00:02:18.320 --> 00:02:19.140
Yeah.

00:02:19.140 --> 00:02:19.980
Dang.

00:02:19.980 --> 00:02:20.820
Plus shipping.

00:02:20.820 --> 00:02:21.660
Right.

00:02:21.660 --> 00:02:22.500
Plus shipping was another 30.

00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:23.340
How much for shipping?

00:02:23.340 --> 00:02:24.180
$37.

00:02:24.180 --> 00:02:25.020
Oh, okay, well.

00:02:25.020 --> 00:02:26.260
Okay, in fairness to us, though,

00:02:26.260 --> 00:02:29.640
if we were in the US, shipping would've been way cheaper.

00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:31.040
Yeah, oh, it actually booted up.

00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:32.760
Oh, see, here's another quirk.

00:02:32.760 --> 00:02:33.820
Take a little bit there.

00:02:33.820 --> 00:02:34.680
No, here's another quirk.

00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:35.620
You have to plug the USB.

00:02:35.620 --> 00:02:38.640
The mouse into a different USB port.

00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:40.640
Oh.

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:42.040
And then it works.

00:02:42.040 --> 00:02:43.040
Beautiful.

00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:43.880
Wonderful.

00:02:43.880 --> 00:02:44.720
Okay.

00:02:44.720 --> 00:02:46.960
Now, Optiplexes are more geared towards

00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:49.660
the corporate or education markets.

00:02:49.660 --> 00:02:52.660
So while they do tend to have decent networking,

00:02:52.660 --> 00:02:55.500
this guy's got Gigabit, which is nice to have,

00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:59.360
and reliable components, they lack some of the features

00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:01.940
that you would normally find in a gaming rig,

00:03:01.940 --> 00:03:03.780
like a graphics card.

00:03:03.780 --> 00:03:06.060
There is nary a graphics card

00:03:06.060 --> 00:03:08.040
to be found, which isn't to say, though,

00:03:08.040 --> 00:03:10.440
that we aren't gonna try to run games on it

00:03:10.440 --> 00:03:12.340
straight out of the box.

00:03:12.340 --> 00:03:13.600
So what do you got there?

00:03:13.600 --> 00:03:16.210
I have a crash message.

00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:17.050
Yeah.

00:03:17.050 --> 00:03:17.890
Oh, beautiful.

00:03:17.890 --> 00:03:18.870
Oh, beautiful, too.

00:03:18.870 --> 00:03:19.710
You've got matching.

00:03:19.710 --> 00:03:20.550
I got two.

00:03:20.550 --> 00:03:21.390
In SLI.

00:03:21.390 --> 00:03:22.350
Yep.

00:03:22.350 --> 00:03:25.030
Even though we did find drivers for everything,

00:03:25.030 --> 00:03:27.070
that doesn't mean that they're perfect.

00:03:27.070 --> 00:03:29.470
None of the games we tried to launch

00:03:29.470 --> 00:03:31.950
managed to successfully open.

00:03:31.950 --> 00:03:36.150
And among other probable issues, we did discover,

00:03:36.310 --> 00:03:38.770
that the G41 Express chipset,

00:03:38.770 --> 00:03:42.090
which is this little high-tech beauty right here,

00:03:42.090 --> 00:03:44.770
doesn't support OpenGL on Windows 10.

00:03:44.770 --> 00:03:45.610
No.

00:03:45.610 --> 00:03:46.450
With that said, I mean,

00:03:46.450 --> 00:03:48.690
what kind of performance were we expecting?

00:03:48.690 --> 00:03:50.330
Not very good.

00:03:50.330 --> 00:03:52.190
I just wanted to know, you know?

00:03:52.190 --> 00:03:53.930
I wanted to believe in something.

00:03:53.930 --> 00:03:56.670
So anyway, it's time to move on to our real plan,

00:03:56.670 --> 00:03:58.870
which is installing a graphics card.

00:03:58.870 --> 00:03:59.710
Right.

00:03:59.710 --> 00:04:03.220
Which, even though there's a PCI Express slot here,

00:04:03.220 --> 00:04:05.460
is probably gonna be a little bit trickier

00:04:05.460 --> 00:04:06.360
than you might think.

00:04:06.380 --> 00:04:07.340
Yeah.

00:04:07.340 --> 00:04:09.940
The only graphics cards that actually fit in the case

00:04:09.940 --> 00:04:14.940
have to be a low profile and single PCIe slot card.

00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:19.640
So you're gonna have a hard time finding a modern,

00:04:19.640 --> 00:04:21.300
any kind of relatively modern card

00:04:21.300 --> 00:04:22.320
that fits that description.

00:04:22.320 --> 00:04:23.360
So check this out.

00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:26.580
This was back in the era when Intel was still trying

00:04:26.580 --> 00:04:29.380
to flip the ATX standard upside down.

00:04:29.380 --> 00:04:31.940
So you notice this opens on the opposite side panel

00:04:31.940 --> 00:04:33.620
that most modern cases do.

00:04:33.620 --> 00:04:35.880
So a graphics card that you put here doesn't take up

00:04:35.880 --> 00:04:38.120
this next PCIe slot.

00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:41.120
It'll interfere with the CPU heat sink,

00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:44.540
the parallel port potentially, some of these capacitors.

00:04:44.540 --> 00:04:47.920
Like it's just, it's kind of a mess.

00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:50.980
Unless, ooh, you get a little creative.

00:04:50.980 --> 00:04:55.440
Now, our target graphics card for a system of this caliber

00:04:55.440 --> 00:04:58.660
would be something like a GeForce GTX 650,

00:04:58.660 --> 00:05:02.540
which you can find on eBay for anywhere from 30 to 50 bucks,

00:05:02.540 --> 00:05:03.900
bringing the total cost for this machine right in line with our target.

00:05:03.900 --> 00:05:04.900
bringing the total cost for this machine right in line with our target.

00:05:04.900 --> 00:05:05.900
bringing the total cost for this machine right in line with our target.

00:05:05.900 --> 00:05:07.340
bringing the total cost for this machine right in line with our target.

00:05:07.340 --> 00:05:08.800
Plus shipping.

00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:12.360
Problem is, that is not a single slot,

00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.300
nor is it a low profile card.

00:05:14.300 --> 00:05:17.960
Now, what we could do is Dremel out this part of the case

00:05:17.960 --> 00:05:21.680
right here, which would allow us to get it to fit in there,

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.940
but it's a little easier if you just use

00:05:24.940 --> 00:05:26.560
a PCI Express extender.

00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.000
It'll only cost you about five bucks.

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.880
You won't get like a fancy shielded one like this

00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:33.240
for five bucks, but you could get something functional.

00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:35.740
So, oh, it does fit all the way in.

00:05:36.440 --> 00:05:40.640
Extender in, card into the other end.

00:05:40.640 --> 00:05:42.440
We'll just kind of sit it in there.

00:05:42.440 --> 00:05:44.960
And this system has, come and look at this,

00:05:44.960 --> 00:05:49.960
has literally no extra power connectors

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.720
other than a floppy power connector,

00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:58.420
which we could actually like cut off and strip

00:05:58.420 --> 00:06:00.780
and then like solder onto a piece.

00:06:00.780 --> 00:06:03.200
Yeah, that's probably not a great idea.

00:06:03.200 --> 00:06:05.960
And we think we've got a better solution anyway,

00:06:06.440 --> 00:06:09.730
but it needs an optical drive, any who.

00:06:09.730 --> 00:06:13.640
Let's check this out.

00:06:13.640 --> 00:06:15.180
Would you look at that?

00:06:15.180 --> 00:06:18.580
A SATA to PCI Express power adapter.

00:06:18.580 --> 00:06:21.140
It can fit, you just gotta believe Linus.

00:06:21.140 --> 00:06:22.520
Bam.

00:06:22.520 --> 00:06:23.360
Wow.

00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:24.200
There we go.

00:06:24.200 --> 00:06:25.040
Building PCs is fun.

00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:25.880
So that's it.

00:06:25.880 --> 00:06:26.720
We can fire it up now, right?

00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:27.560
Yes.

00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:28.400
I'm fired up.

00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:29.240
It's powered.

00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:30.080
It's plugged in.

00:06:30.080 --> 00:06:30.920
Yep.

00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:31.760
Okay.

00:06:31.760 --> 00:06:33.840
And we've got DVI output now.

00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:36.200
And we installed everything with the power cord connected.

00:06:36.200 --> 00:06:37.280
That's fine.

00:06:37.280 --> 00:06:38.100
Oh yeah.

00:06:38.100 --> 00:06:39.400
We probably shouldn't have done that.

00:06:39.400 --> 00:06:41.360
Wow, that is a dusty, gross card.

00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:42.200
Yeah.

00:06:42.200 --> 00:06:43.360
Wow, look at that.

00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:46.060
Just boots up fine, drivers installed and everything.

00:06:46.060 --> 00:06:48.880
It's like we've done this before or something.

00:06:48.880 --> 00:06:50.580
It's almost like we prepare these videos.

00:06:50.580 --> 00:06:52.240
Anyways, moving on.

00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:57.240
So once you've roused the system from its deep sleep,

00:06:57.880 --> 00:07:01.080
now we can safely attempt to play some games, I'd say.

00:07:01.080 --> 00:07:02.560
All right, play CSGO.

00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:04.840
CSGO, look, that was actually pretty quick.

00:07:04.840 --> 00:07:06.480
Yeah, I'd go with bots.

00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:08.440
Don't subject other people.

00:07:08.440 --> 00:07:09.310
Yeah.

00:07:09.430 --> 00:07:12.170
So what are we, what settings are we running at here?

00:07:12.170 --> 00:07:13.010
No, 720.

00:07:13.010 --> 00:07:13.830
720.

00:07:13.830 --> 00:07:14.670
720 low.

00:07:14.670 --> 00:07:15.510
720 low.

00:07:15.510 --> 00:07:16.990
Limbo low.

00:07:16.990 --> 00:07:18.670
I'm going right under this computer.

00:07:18.670 --> 00:07:19.510
What?

00:07:19.510 --> 00:07:20.350
No!

00:07:20.350 --> 00:07:21.190
Wow.

00:07:21.190 --> 00:07:22.030
Where's he going?

00:07:22.030 --> 00:07:22.870
Where's he going?

00:07:22.870 --> 00:07:23.710
Really impressive.

00:07:23.710 --> 00:07:24.550
Ah, I'm stuck.

00:07:24.550 --> 00:07:28.020
Are you, do you need, jeez Louise.

00:07:28.020 --> 00:07:29.940
Oh, were you using the table to cheat?

00:07:29.940 --> 00:07:32.250
No?

00:07:32.250 --> 00:07:36.580
Oh, jeez.

00:07:36.580 --> 00:07:39.880
So we're still running at about 50, 60 FPS.

00:07:39.880 --> 00:07:42.140
That's actually not too shabby.

00:07:42.140 --> 00:07:42.980
Yeah.

00:07:42.980 --> 00:07:43.820
Oh no.

00:07:43.820 --> 00:07:44.640
Yeah.

00:07:44.640 --> 00:07:46.120
See, you will get some frame drops.

00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:46.960
Yes.

00:07:46.960 --> 00:07:49.860
Cause the CPU, you're gonna kill them with a smoke grenade.

00:07:49.860 --> 00:07:50.680
Yeah.

00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:51.760
I just, I want to see what happens to our frame rate

00:07:51.760 --> 00:07:53.220
when we walk through the smoke.

00:07:53.220 --> 00:07:54.060
Okay.

00:07:54.060 --> 00:07:56.660
So we saw an initial dip down to like 30,

00:07:56.660 --> 00:07:58.660
but it's staying in the 35, 40 range.

00:07:58.660 --> 00:08:00.520
I mean, it's usable.

00:08:00.520 --> 00:08:02.300
It's usable.

00:08:02.300 --> 00:08:03.640
Yes, I would like to stop playing now.

00:08:03.640 --> 00:08:04.480
Okay.

00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:05.320
Do you want to do the next one?

00:08:05.320 --> 00:08:06.160
Yeah.

00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:07.000
Okay.

00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:07.840
Pretty good.

00:08:07.840 --> 00:08:08.680
All right.

00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:09.520
Well, next one.

00:08:09.520 --> 00:08:11.740
Oh, you're gonna play with real people, your teammates?

00:08:11.740 --> 00:08:12.900
Well, against AI.

00:08:12.900 --> 00:08:13.740
That's how you do it.

00:08:13.740 --> 00:08:14.720
Or do you want to play just training?

00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:15.580
No, fine.

00:08:15.580 --> 00:08:17.120
Well, they don't have to deal with this.

00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:17.940
Yeah, yeah.

00:08:17.940 --> 00:08:18.780
We do.

00:08:18.780 --> 00:08:19.600
Well, they just have to deal with that.

00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:21.060
We're gonna lag out.

00:08:21.060 --> 00:08:21.900
I don't know.

00:08:21.900 --> 00:08:22.780
I was getting pretty good ping.

00:08:22.780 --> 00:08:24.480
No, but we're gonna close the game.

00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:25.320
Yeah, we are.

00:08:25.320 --> 00:08:26.140
Yeah.

00:08:26.140 --> 00:08:26.980
Yeah.

00:08:26.980 --> 00:08:27.820
Where's the gun girl?

00:08:27.820 --> 00:08:28.980
Camping Ezreal.

00:08:28.980 --> 00:08:31.520
So does everyone else have to wait for our Epic hard drive

00:08:31.520 --> 00:08:34.570
to manage to load it?

00:08:34.570 --> 00:08:36.530
Yes.

00:08:36.530 --> 00:08:38.030
Hey, we're not the slowest.

00:08:38.030 --> 00:08:38.870
Are we not?

00:08:38.870 --> 00:08:39.790
Check this out.

00:08:39.790 --> 00:08:41.170
This guy's at 40%.

00:08:41.170 --> 00:08:42.490
Master Yi over here.

00:08:42.490 --> 00:08:43.810
Dang, dude.

00:08:43.810 --> 00:08:44.410
Hey. Hey.

00:08:44.410 --> 00:08:45.250
Hey.

00:08:45.250 --> 00:08:46.370
Here we go.

00:08:46.370 --> 00:08:47.810
Whoa.

00:08:47.810 --> 00:08:48.650
Wow.

00:08:48.650 --> 00:08:50.170
We're getting like 90, 100 FPS.

00:08:50.170 --> 00:08:52.500
Look at those graphics.

00:08:52.500 --> 00:08:54.140
Not bad.

00:08:54.140 --> 00:08:55.440
Is this even 720p?

00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:56.380
This looks like 1080.

00:08:56.380 --> 00:08:59.040
I actually have no idea what settings this is at.

00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:00.460
This looks pretty good.

00:09:00.460 --> 00:09:01.300
Hold on a minute.

00:09:01.300 --> 00:09:02.240
Can I just poke around in here?

00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:03.800
How am I gonna kill them if you...

00:09:03.800 --> 00:09:04.640
I'm gonna kill...

00:09:04.640 --> 00:09:07.980
We're running at 1080, medium high.

00:09:07.980 --> 00:09:08.820
What?

00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.950
Dang.

00:09:09.950 --> 00:09:10.910
Wow.

00:09:10.910 --> 00:09:12.090
Oh, bad guys.

00:09:12.090 --> 00:09:14.310
For 70 bucks.

00:09:14.310 --> 00:09:15.210
For 70 bucks.

00:09:15.210 --> 00:09:15.690
Yeah.

00:09:15.690 --> 00:09:16.530
Yeah.

00:09:16.530 --> 00:09:19.230
You can play one of the top games in the world no problem.

00:09:19.230 --> 00:09:21.570
I mean, can you even get like a...

00:09:21.570 --> 00:09:24.270
Like, can you even get like an old Game Boy Color

00:09:24.270 --> 00:09:25.330
on eBay for 70 bucks?

00:09:25.330 --> 00:09:26.970
Like, that's kind of what I'm talking about here.

00:09:26.970 --> 00:09:28.830
Like...

00:09:28.830 --> 00:09:29.670
That's true.

00:09:29.670 --> 00:09:31.170
We're gaming for 70 bucks.

00:09:31.170 --> 00:09:32.830
We haven't been killing anybody yet, so...

00:09:32.830 --> 00:09:34.050
Well, yeah, we should probably get on that.

00:09:34.050 --> 00:09:35.490
Boom, boom.

00:09:35.490 --> 00:09:36.670
Hey, Linus, watch this though.

00:09:36.670 --> 00:09:37.510
Watch this.

00:09:38.930 --> 00:09:41.730
Yeah, that didn't even...

00:09:41.730 --> 00:09:43.670
Even with a bunch of action going on here,

00:09:43.670 --> 00:09:45.450
we haven't dipped below 55.

00:09:45.450 --> 00:09:46.780
Okay.

00:09:46.780 --> 00:09:47.740
I think we've probably hit 50.

00:09:47.740 --> 00:09:49.420
We've probably had enough of this at this point.

00:09:49.420 --> 00:09:50.240
Okay.

00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:51.360
Minecraft.

00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:53.680
I should run on a potato.

00:09:53.680 --> 00:09:56.680
Confess, I don't know how to play Minecraft.

00:09:56.680 --> 00:09:57.520
Oh.

00:09:57.520 --> 00:09:58.360
Ooh.

00:09:58.360 --> 00:09:59.200
Okay.

00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:00.040
Okay.

00:10:00.040 --> 00:10:00.880
Okay.

00:10:00.880 --> 00:10:01.720
There's a horse.

00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:02.560
Can we go get the horse?

00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:03.400
Let's get him.

00:10:03.400 --> 00:10:04.240
That's a cow.

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:05.080
Well, I didn't say...

00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:05.920
What?

00:10:05.920 --> 00:10:06.760
I said get it.

00:10:06.760 --> 00:10:07.600
I didn't say kill it.

00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:08.440
What are you doing?

00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:09.280
You said get it.

00:10:09.280 --> 00:10:10.120
You're a monster.

00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:10.960
What does get it mean if not...

00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:12.920
What's wrong with you?

00:10:12.920 --> 00:10:15.240
If all you were trying to do was harvest kelp

00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.040
and smack fish in the face,

00:10:18.060 --> 00:10:21.430
which I have done successfully.

00:10:21.430 --> 00:10:23.240
Picked up some kelp.

00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:25.340
I mean, that's pretty playable.

00:10:25.340 --> 00:10:26.400
But watch this, Linus.

00:10:26.400 --> 00:10:28.980
I guess you didn't see this coming.

00:10:28.980 --> 00:10:31.400
Let's go down to six chunks.

00:10:31.400 --> 00:10:33.320
Minecraft has a lot to do with chunks.

00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:34.160
Okay.

00:10:34.160 --> 00:10:35.000
If you don't know your chunks in Minecraft,

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:36.490
you're gonna be in trouble.

00:10:36.490 --> 00:10:37.330
Thank you.

00:10:37.330 --> 00:10:39.830
So it's just a little bit of tuning there.

00:10:39.830 --> 00:10:41.990
Minecraft, 200 plus FPS.

00:10:41.990 --> 00:10:43.300
Yeah.

00:10:43.300 --> 00:10:46.700
I was like compulsively playing Overwatch for a little bit.

00:10:46.700 --> 00:10:48.090
Oh, okay.

00:10:48.090 --> 00:10:49.230
Is this gonna get you back

00:10:49.230 --> 00:10:50.210
on the...

00:10:50.210 --> 00:10:51.620
Yeah, maybe.

00:10:51.620 --> 00:10:54.380
I think I'm gonna make it to championships here tonight.

00:10:56.020 --> 00:10:56.840
This year.

00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:58.120
This is gonna take you all the way.

00:10:59.810 --> 00:11:00.970
Oh, I thought it just turned off.

00:11:00.970 --> 00:11:01.990
I was like, what did you do?

00:11:01.990 --> 00:11:03.810
The graphics card is just loose in there.

00:11:03.810 --> 00:11:05.170
Oh my gosh.

00:11:05.170 --> 00:11:07.130
Oh yeah, there's a missing blade.

00:11:07.130 --> 00:11:08.170
Two missing blades.

00:11:08.170 --> 00:11:09.070
That'll do it.

00:11:09.070 --> 00:11:09.910
You know what?

00:11:09.910 --> 00:11:11.790
I bet if we ripped off one more blade,

00:11:11.790 --> 00:11:13.010
that wobble would go away.

00:11:13.010 --> 00:11:14.510
Let's maybe not do that right now.

00:11:14.510 --> 00:11:16.430
Right, but then it wouldn't wobble anymore.

00:11:16.430 --> 00:11:18.610
So we're at 720, 60.

00:11:18.610 --> 00:11:19.450
Yeah.

00:11:19.450 --> 00:11:20.250
V-sync off.

00:11:20.410 --> 00:11:23.130
Everything, most, most everything off.

00:11:23.130 --> 00:11:23.970
Low, everything.

00:11:23.970 --> 00:11:24.790
Low, low, low, low.

00:11:24.790 --> 00:11:26.190
Off, off, low.

00:11:26.190 --> 00:11:28.090
Let's do mystery heroes.

00:11:28.090 --> 00:11:30.230
Is there actually a delay when I shoot?

00:11:30.230 --> 00:11:32.690
Or like, is that just an animation or what?

00:11:32.690 --> 00:11:33.530
Like- What do you mean?

00:11:33.530 --> 00:11:35.010
Like, do I have to leave the target?

00:11:35.010 --> 00:11:35.850
Yeah, you do.

00:11:35.850 --> 00:11:36.690
Oh crap.

00:11:36.690 --> 00:11:37.530
Well, that wasn't working.

00:11:37.530 --> 00:11:38.630
Why can't I see people through walls?

00:11:38.630 --> 00:11:39.630
Oh no, you're dead.

00:11:39.630 --> 00:11:40.470
No, I'm not dead.

00:11:40.470 --> 00:11:41.530
It's over now.

00:11:41.530 --> 00:11:42.530
It's not over now.

00:11:42.530 --> 00:11:43.370
Yeah.

00:11:43.370 --> 00:11:45.090
When you see, when you say May, it's over.

00:11:45.090 --> 00:11:45.930
Oh.

00:11:45.930 --> 00:11:46.870
Yeah.

00:11:46.870 --> 00:11:48.230
Jump Linus for your life.

00:11:48.230 --> 00:11:49.900
Blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:11:49.900 --> 00:11:50.760
Okay. Did I get one?

00:11:50.760 --> 00:11:51.600
Yeah.

00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:52.420
I got one!

00:11:52.420 --> 00:11:53.880
I got one!

00:11:53.880 --> 00:11:54.840
Oh, I didn't get a kill.

00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:55.660
Yeah.

00:11:55.660 --> 00:11:56.580
I got an assist.

00:11:56.580 --> 00:11:57.420
Okay, what's this?

00:11:57.420 --> 00:11:58.240
What do I do?

00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.080
You're Zenyatta now.

00:11:59.080 --> 00:11:59.920
Now you're a robot.

00:11:59.920 --> 00:12:01.460
Okay, telling me the name of the character

00:12:01.460 --> 00:12:04.340
and like what type of being they are.

00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:05.800
Press E when you see them.

00:12:05.800 --> 00:12:07.580
Shift is like a long one.

00:12:07.580 --> 00:12:08.420
And then-

00:12:08.420 --> 00:12:09.260
I'm gonna go.

00:12:09.260 --> 00:12:10.100
Left click is a short range.

00:12:10.100 --> 00:12:11.040
Hey, get back here.

00:12:11.040 --> 00:12:11.880
I've had enough of this.

00:12:11.880 --> 00:12:14.360
This is a bad, this is a bad experience.

00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:15.560
I'm a bad Overwatch coach.

00:12:15.560 --> 00:12:17.320
Bad experience.

00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:19.160
And you're the worst Overwatch coach.

00:12:19.160 --> 00:12:20.340
Okay, wait.

00:12:20.340 --> 00:12:21.800
So the frame rates we're getting

00:12:21.800 --> 00:12:23.900
aren't gonna blow anyone away,

00:12:23.900 --> 00:12:26.880
especially as we get to more newer, more demanding titles.

00:12:26.880 --> 00:12:29.580
And we're basically limited to 720p

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:31.440
and in many cases, low details

00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:32.840
if we want things to run smoothly.

00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:37.300
But like if you're a high school student or something,

00:12:37.300 --> 00:12:40.200
this can be had for less than a hundred bucks.

00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:42.800
If you get like a gray market Windows 10 key

00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:44.600
or you can otherwise get one on the cheap.

00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.380
So you, I mean, you throw some emulators and stuff on here

00:12:47.380 --> 00:12:49.920
and this is a pretty freaking

00:12:49.920 --> 00:12:52.100
adequate experience.

00:12:52.100 --> 00:12:54.320
Adequate is the right word to use, yeah.

00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:55.820
There are a few things we could do on the cheap

00:12:55.820 --> 00:12:56.700
to make it a lot better.

00:12:56.700 --> 00:13:00.360
Like an SSD would be a great upgrade.

00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.380
And all you'd really need is an extra SATA cable

00:13:02.380 --> 00:13:05.100
since there is an extra port on the motherboard.

00:13:05.100 --> 00:13:07.560
But you would need a SATA power splitter to do that.

00:13:07.560 --> 00:13:09.700
Yeah, just make sure that if you're splitting

00:13:09.700 --> 00:13:11.540
one of the SATA power connectors,

00:13:11.540 --> 00:13:14.160
you split the one that's going to the hard drive now

00:13:14.160 --> 00:13:15.340
as opposed to splitting the one

00:13:15.340 --> 00:13:16.700
that's going to your graphics card.

00:13:16.700 --> 00:13:19.760
Even if your graphics card isn't super demanding,

00:13:19.760 --> 00:13:22.800
we're still kind of adapting power cables,

00:13:22.800 --> 00:13:24.760
which isn't necessarily the best thing.

00:13:24.760 --> 00:13:25.600
Yeah.

00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:26.920
And if that's not enough,

00:13:26.920 --> 00:13:29.300
you could still throw in eight gigs of RAM

00:13:29.300 --> 00:13:32.200
and a 750 TI or a 950,

00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:35.020
which might even get you playable frame rates at 1080p

00:13:35.020 --> 00:13:38.040
because again, we were at 720p low.

00:13:38.040 --> 00:13:40.480
You might end up CPU bottlenecks though.

00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:41.460
The fortunately though,

00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:43.660
this motherboard should be compatible

00:13:43.660 --> 00:13:47.860
with cheap quad core 775 processors like the Q6600,

00:13:47.860 --> 00:13:49.680
which you can get for as little as five

00:13:49.760 --> 00:13:51.680
or 10 bucks or even free

00:13:51.680 --> 00:13:53.440
in just like a bargain bin in some case.

00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:54.800
And you can throw that baby under there.

00:13:54.800 --> 00:13:57.460
This cooler will handle it just fine.

00:13:57.460 --> 00:14:00.800
And even if you made all of those upgrades,

00:14:00.800 --> 00:14:03.620
you'd still be in the like $200 neighborhood.

00:14:03.620 --> 00:14:08.060
So all in all, a pleasantly surprising end result.

00:14:08.060 --> 00:14:10.180
And while I can't say that you guys

00:14:10.180 --> 00:14:12.080
will have an identical experience

00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:13.860
because buying used hardware on eBay

00:14:13.860 --> 00:14:15.860
is always a bit of a gamble,

00:14:15.860 --> 00:14:17.240
there's also no reason to think

00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:19.600
that you couldn't build something similar.

00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.100
I mean, hey,

00:14:22.100 --> 00:14:25.560
if Riley, someone who isn't qualified

00:14:25.560 --> 00:14:29.060
to review the RTX 2080 can do it,

00:14:29.060 --> 00:14:30.690
so can you.

00:14:30.690 --> 00:14:34.720
Great work, Riley.

00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:35.560
That's the end.

00:14:38.020 --> 00:14:40.320
Oh, you know what's not a laughing matter?

00:14:40.320 --> 00:14:41.820
Our sponsor Ting.

00:14:41.820 --> 00:14:43.840
Ting is the mobile carrier that is focused

00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.360
on customer service and satisfaction first.

00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:47.480
Don't speak to a robot,

00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:49.500
you get put through directly to a person

00:14:49.500 --> 00:14:52.440
and you pay only for what you use.

00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:53.280
The average Ting bill

00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:55.340
is just 23 bucks a month per device.

00:14:55.340 --> 00:14:57.760
And if you're stuck in a contract and switch to Ting,

00:14:57.760 --> 00:15:01.440
they'll cover 25% of your cancellation fee up to $75.

00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.640
They've got lower mobile data rates than ever before

00:15:03.640 --> 00:15:05.780
at just $10 a gig beyond the second gig.

I did too.

00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:51.220
For like 50 to 80 bucks.

00:15:51.220 --> 00:15:52.060
Oh, the value.

00:15:52.060 --> 00:15:53.000
Depending on configuration. Oh, the value.

00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:53.840
Not the video.

00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:55.740
I thought you were saying the video was amazing.

00:15:55.740 --> 00:15:56.780
I thought you said that.

00:15:56.780 --> 00:15:58.840
Are you really gonna play more Overwatch on this thing?

00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:00.900
Yeah, well, you've ranked me down.

00:16:00.900 --> 00:16:02.540
