Well, there's a catch We need the highest possible performance, but we can't go over budget And we're not allowed to check the internet for price. Oh, well, that is a lot harder than I guess the pressure's on To tell you about our sponsor All right lads the rules are simple one build the best $1,000 PC from anything on these shelves to no help from the internet and three a few other restrictions that I sent Out yesterday any questions don't care Go I Think we go big GPU. Yeah, 100% and for am for for sure I don't care about case just something cheap and decent I'll be like a Chinese brand big risk, but I want to go 7900 X you're gonna way over shoot No, some some of them are really cheap like how cheap like 500 bucks. We want to waste money on CPU Okay, and fractal mesh fight to Each team has their plan and now it's time to select all of our parts We're gonna do a snake draft order starting with team literal arson. We have 45 seconds per part Let's go. Okay. Oh, let's go 7900 XT not the XTX Well, we could go for a fancy with 78. No, we need to go the cheapest Looking one the Gigabyte looks expensive. I was hoping for something that seems cheaper looking. We got a pic. We got a pic So Niger next we're next We got we have our part. Okay, do we want 12 or 13 12 might be cheaper like we could do 12 400. Do we have a 12 400? Oh Oh my god, we don't have any of the ones that I'd want G is not as good 13 400 13 100 They're going 79 does that make that way too expensive. They're going way over budget 7900 7800 XT that's a maybe that's 7700 XT Okay, we're going on that. We're gonna that sweet CPU CPU CPU. I really would rather go with this unless you want to go Intel 33 or four Okay, okay Be 660 basic 650 Jesus oh and they said a point. Oh, no No, this is it yeah, oh god No, no, this one this one. All right, it's our turn go. All right All right yelling all right, I'm looking for motherboards a m4 where the frick is it right here? Do you think B450 pro for good? I think that's fine. All right. That's probably a hundred bucks. Okay, okay? Well, we get to go again, right? Yeah, okay, basically all they have AMD wise. That's like reasonable, right? I really don't know. I think it'd be safer just to go with like this. That is this one That's probably the best choice. Yeah, we're gonna go with the 5600 G 6900 XT or 7900 XT or 7 or some eat. I think 78 is the one this looks like some pretty awful stuff Should we just go for it or the gram Okay, I have what I want. I just can't get it out. What did you just do? What does this require? It's pretty chonk dude. It's pretty chonk. It is pretty chonk. Oh my fuck We're screwed We're so screwed Now that the major components have been selected We're gonna round out our systems with RAM, case, power supply, etc. until we get to the most important category flex item I need to find out if there's fans that are included with this or not. So if you want to use our FETS pick for fans Real quick. Oh god, it's back. No! No fans. So get fans. Okay This is good. This will work. Let's cheap. RGB would be really good. It's gonna be so expensive though It's gonna be really expensive. I want something silly Alaja, we can have this for ten dollars Done The parts have been selected our fates have been sealed now It's time to build starting with team arson for our CPU We ended up going with the 5600G and I think we ran into the same issue a lot of the other teams did which is when they Looked in the pile of AMD CPUs all of them were already checked out either to another project or Labs testing I don't know how much these are worse now. I have literally no clue. I want to say 150 bucks I put down 125 as my guess I'm feeling a little bit sick to my stomach the fact that the first component is different than I thought it was I thought we just got a regular 13 100, but this is the 13 100 F. F is just no graphics. No graphics. That's fine It's actually better so it should be cheaper. You'll save 10 bucks probably I think we went a little overboard on the CPU We went with a 13 600 K because there was like no we wanted a 5600 X. Yeah, we panicked. Yeah, we panicked And then for motherboard we went with a ASUS prime B660 plus Which is one of the cheapest LGA 1700 boards that we have in stock. We wanted to make sure that our CPU runs at boost clocks So maybe we can win big in the CPU competition that might push us over the edge. Yeah, man This motherboard looks very cheap Alex. Exactly And that was one of the original things with going with am4 plat. Oh my gosh, these yeah, that's fine Very wobbly Well, we went with it as rock B450 pro 4. How much do you think these are like I was gonna say like 70 maybe 90 That might be pushing like a hundred 13 100 F and then we got our Z690 plus Wi-Fi D4 motherboard It is a much more expensive board than I would have picked But we didn't see any 660 ones left in terms of our estimates We were thinking 13 100 130 bucks Z690 we said 170. It's probably more I think I'm gonna I'm gonna adjust our estimate to 200. You think so. Yeah, which is a huge bummer for the RAM Chose the one that was used in the sheen build I don't actually know how to pronounce it, but it was blurred the last time I pronounced it like this So ddr4 3200 megahertz That's style points right there. Yeah, that's that's class if you ask me I think the anime adds five bucks, so we're gonna 40. I think that's our estimate all right cross our fingers with that one Yeah, this whole build Please please please please the only thing we know for sure is that we are over budget All right, so we're just going stock cooler here. Yeah, which is nice zero dollars. I actually haven't installed these stock coolers I remember G boy over here. What okay, don't do that. This young man does not know the ways of the When you boot up again, oh, I do my computer still screams kind of case that we get we got a phanteks eclipse g 360 a great case. This is probably gonna come in around a hundred dollars. Yeah, maybe 110 tops We got the Phanteks eclipse P 300 this reach here. Uh, it That's quality. It feels Kind of like junk but not in a way. That's like concerning It's not going to hurt me which is like a plus I guess and we have what seems like too nice of a fan in the back I'm a bit concerned about that next is our flex item. Oh, yeah, and Jordan I want you to take a closer look at the box that you chose. Oh Did I do a bad? Oh, it's like strips What I know I 100% would have made the same I was fully reading that is LS 120 120 mil fans this box looks like a pack of three fans. This is not looking good for Jordan While he's handling all the stuff on the motherboard, I'm gonna be getting the case prepped We got this thermal take smart at BM 3 650 want 80 plus bronze. I think we all have the same strategy We went for thermal take bronze Is it just we all consider them cheap? I think so I think we were all expecting them to be cheaper than I see sonic or a Corsair one thing that I did not realize when I Picked that GPU was that it requires an 800 watt power supply So we went with what seemed like the worst 800 watt power supply, but not so bad that it would actually just not work What do you think though? 65 to 100 it's only 650 watt. I think it's 100 tops $85 sure it's 650 watt. It's bronze. Yeah, they're gonna take they make some great products But they not necessarily the power supply like yeah, well, that's not thermal take that's thermal, right? Oh, you're right We love them. Yeah, we do love thermal, right the phantom spirit 120 se argb $40 I'm gonna say 50 you think 50 because yeah Spirit's newer. I'm just gonna tighten my cooler down with our LTT screwdriver from LTT Store calm. Oh Yeah, yeah, don't get screwed be the one who does the screwing one thing that I was thinking mm-hmm As far as I can tell there are no Bonus points for noise. We should go full fan speed on everything I Mean we can but like what's the So just so it stays super cool. Oh, yeah, it just like might net us a couple FPS Man I'm getting kind of worried that like we're gonna be so far off on budget and we're gonna like really I got less nervous when I saw Alex grab the 7900 XT I was really hoping that we would have like an X FX or a slightly crappier 7900 XT because this right here might be 900 bucks You told you told me 600 it might be So we're banking on 600 bucks that's how much we think it's worth I'm saying 650 okay six For a GPU we picked a good old 7700 XT. We think it's gonna do just fine We didn't want to go overboard on price What's 7700 XT 500 500 bucks 500 bucks. I'll be 500 probably 550 maybe so long Yeah, the board is done here. The cooler. I hope it fits. Oh, yeah, no problem. Okay, that's good God I Was like hey, let's go plug it in Like it's like it's like right now. I think you can get it. I think you can get it. Oh, I Okay, we're gonna need some finagling here. We're gonna need some finagling Wait, that means we probably have time to go in laser We're not laser etching the glass panel Alex. Yes, we are that's we have millimeters of clearance I did not think about that at all. That GP is massive So not only did you potentially screw us on price you almost screwed us On an actual space. Okay. Do you want to plug it in plug it in get it posting? How much time do we have? 15 okay, dude, we're not gonna have time. No, we're gonna have time We haven't even post tested we can post test over there You can do that and worry about the cable management. I will make this art literal art. Oh, all right We're going to the frickin 105. It's a stupid idea Look, I've had only bad ideas today. Let's not stop Okay, nothing yet. Hold on Well, they're both diagnostic saying anything Do we have read it? There's a it's one of those lights has like four options DRAM So it might be memory training. We'll give it. Yeah, I give it a minute All right, we're coming over here really really fast. We have about 15 minutes. I'm going to try in that time To create us a custom side panel. Now. We don't have enough time to do it as like a I don't even remember What's that called? I just need to get going Oh We're good Alex is pretty as your glasses it'd be really cool if the computer turned on It really would be a little nut. Yeah, we still have our DRAM light. DRAM light. Are these dead? David our DDR4 might be bad. I'm just gonna hit start and hope for the best Yeah, this might guarantee that we totally do not win the style points if it's only half done Which is really looking quite likely at the moment Alex I need help getting the computer booted though. Oh you do. I literally cannot get it to boot. What? Yeah So I had it plugged in. I know this cable works because it was powering the monitor But I tried unplugging even the front. I owe to see if it was the button, but I touched the pins and it does not Doesn't go I don't know Yeah, yeah, yeah, because this I don't think it's our fault. It seems like it might just actually be a dead power spot. What the f*** just happened? Oh We're f***ed we're f***ed They got most of the way through too. I have no clue why it did that Oh, you know what happened Tine and change the focal distance Of this laser I have I had the laser about as low of a power and as fast as it could get But this is the first time that we have ever etched With this laser. This is what I wanted to be on the side panel. Just the sad Linus on fire team literal Erson I cannot believe that that side panel exploded. Oh, I can I totally can it's almost like we said hey, Alex. We only have 10 minutes left. Maybe we shouldn't go for this I'm just gonna send it and see what happens. I still don't see any LEDs. Yeah, there's still nothing. Do we have a dead board? Kind of really looking like it. Alex, what do you think is more dead? The mother board of the side panel The mother board we can still put the shards of the side panel in there We could save this but yeah, our mother board's dead. So I guess we'll have to figure out what Happens next. This is really unfortunate. Yeah Okay, okay, okay, uh power button 15 seconds moment of truth Yeah, I got the RGB. That's good. That's good. We got lights yellow light d-RAM Oh, it's not going away. What do you mean? It's sticking around. We might have a RAM issue No As per the rules which you can see here We are going to replace these broken components with working ones and get these computers all tuned up Computers are built Windows is installed. Everything's ready to go It's time for the teams to show off what they have done. There's our computer everyone Do you like our decoration? We got some for free. Uh, and we did pay ten dollars for this hypno frog Tell us what happened to your side panel. Alex decided to try to laser etch the glass And he we didn't have the laser dialed in and all of a sudden we heard a shatter So while while you were building a pc, he just went to the shop to no no We built the pc and we were so confident and was working. We're like, let's go laser etch it Then it didn't boot because the motherboard was dead and then the glass panel shattered all in five minutes Actually, the motherboard wasn't dead. We had the Ryzen 5600 g from that random Lenovo desktop That is that has a fuse in it that locks it from going in another computer. Totally forgot about that We have a whole video on that and you can plug in another Ryzen chip into that Lenovo board and it will lock that as well I'm pretty sure that's a while. It's crazy. We have another 5600 g But because we couldn't figure it out. We have a different motherboard that david selected for us. Got it. It's equivalent value You'll still be Scored at the original price got it and motherboards aren't super Important for performance. So we've kind of gone a little bit looser on that and now that he's laid that out This helped us a lot It turns out that we screwed up and accidentally got a pc ie gen 3 board This one is let's go. He got it. So we have resizable bar enabled We have we have the GPU running a full thing. This is really good. That would have been a huge And I see you went with the 7900 x t which is not a mid-range card What uh, what was the impetus for that card? This was an executive decision by alex In a $1,000 build I would not recommend this GPU normally, but you can get them on sale We're hoping one's on sale right now We estimated this computer costing 1115 dollars. What that's again, hoping the GPU is on sale the actual price Not bad. Not bad. Okay. It's not bad $1,249 and 27 cents the GPU was $700 and your original motherboard trace really saved you was 100 bucks So we're gonna have a 24.9 percent penalty Team by me had trouble from the beginning. Uh, we ended up making a rush decision and getting a 13 100 f I was looking for like a 12 400 or a 13 400 something a lot more balanced That's still really low price tough gaming motherboard. Okay. Yeah. Yeah So the next problem we were you know locked into our ecosystem based on our CPU choice And I was looking for a b660 board and I couldn't find them in 45 seconds We took one so we ended up with a z690 board Our total system guess is 1205. Okay. It's a price. What's the price? Oh So we were a pretty spot on on our guess our big factor was a 270 dollar f***ing motherboard Oh my goodness 279 Yeah, so that gen last gen mother that's basically our entire overage compared to that one 170 dollar difference on a Gd mother You got a nice case though. How much was the case? It was 70 dollars. What god damn It's a pretty computer though. I like it. Tell them what we picked Adam. Oh team ddr for 20. We picked a 13 600 k which was um a panic decision We had five seconds and we grabbed a 13 600 k which is probably going to be the thing that hurts us the most in terms of budget Absolutely. It's a great CPU except for maybe the um, uh voltage issues. This only has to run for two hours So who cares? Um, which also explains our power supply selection We chose a thermal take literally the exact same thermal take smart line as everyone else who cares it only needs to be on for two hours Another downside of our CPU pick was that we had to get A cooler unlike the other two teams who had included coolers with their cpus I will say as a note to that The cooler that they used is not the included one for the 5600 g We're not going to dock points because it's RGB and it's way cooler But it would come with just the stealth with this which is a black one, but will it cool down our price? Oh, let's see. You had the highest guess. We were very cynical even with the lowest GPU We guessed at least $350 for our CPU and we came in wow Nice 1092 dollars. Wow. It turns out we have no idea how much stuff costs But um, we always err on the side of of expensive. So that's good. We kind of know what it costs We were trying to build a thousand dollar PC. We came out around $1100. I think that's pretty decent They got a little bit lucky. The 1300k just happens to be on sale Good job you guys. So that's you guys are the closest to the thousand for sure That's gonna be a big help We took a break for the weekend and I've run some of the benchmarks beforehand But we're gonna run our last one on camera. So get to your freaking stations Three two one I started first I win the best part about not having a side panel If I can add extra cooling, it only helps if it's over-eating. Why is it showing them as winning? Because we have a raw system, duh They're not putting any more. They dropped like crazy. Yeah, we're good. Oh, yeah, okay gg easy. Wow killed them Yeah, I'm so surprised that 77 to 79 is way bigger of a difference in this game than I expected Yeah, they're looking like 40 percent. Yeah, how do they have the fastest CPU score? That's a very good question There's like wonkiness with some of the results like they have this massive drop in FPS in the middle of the benchmark This is why like when Labs is doing testing We run things multiple times to make sure that any weird outliers are dealt with whereas this is just have fun with friends Run some benchmarks see who did better, but oh well We've run the benchmarks and I am shocked at the results in third place is Team three with 535 out of 700 in second place is team two with 582 out of 700 And in first place is team one with 639 out of 700 Only have 60 points on the table However with a penalty that cost them 24.9 of their performance their final score puts them in second place and the winner Yeah No way. Let's go. Wow But but we haven't talked about the pineapple for good taste What oh you Out of the six boats Yeah That means that they took a very clean victory not only did they win after price performance adjustment But they got the best looking system. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. We gotta deduct the points of scratch in the glass They also were the closest to an actual thousand dollar mark It's which was really awesome. Tell me how it feels to win. Well, David. It feels great You know, we played a good game. We played a hard game the other guys. They're out there. You know, they're given They're all ever seen You know and sometimes you take I take the wins with the good with the bad Gotta just you know give it 110% Yeah, just like I'm gonna give you 110% for the segue to our sponsor If you like competition videos like this, please give this a thumbs up. We want to do more like this This is super fun. Uh, and if you want us, what's a video that would be good to call it cardboard pc? Oh, yeah Oh, no, don't call that out. Don't call that out. It's awful. What? That's enough cardboard pc. I didn't go see cardboard pc"}
