    It’s honestly so satisfying to see a cheap build perform so well and look nice in the process. Good job Dawid
  • I had to return The Psu in this video to amazon after it set fire to a video card and killed itself. Do not buy that power supply.
  • @zeffzee2479
    This build turned out….. unexpected. Imagine a build like this but you had to roll a dice for each part
  • iGPUs are really getting better. Hopefully they keep this up and not just settle.
  • @ElBozoII
    dawid: picks a $120 board also dawid: picks up a pipe bomb to go along with it
  • @Chadok89
    I'm impressed by the quality of low price cases... I remember back in the day, even high end cases wouldn't have as good of a finish
  • @michaelmechex
    I'm blown away how even a potato pc like this can smash relatively modern games these days. It isn't that long ago since igpu for gaming was absolute no-no and now it smashes gta 5. Even cyberpunk was playable if you're used to it, I've beaten many games at 20fps when I was a broke kid
  • 4:30 That plastic ring with AMD printed on it will lift off the rest of the cooler, and you can turn it where you want. Gets the logo and the fan cable facing the way want them.

    Hi Dawid! This video made me sweat in a way I didn’t expect.
  • @toufusoup
    Honestly, for the price for all new prices, it isn’t the worst thing that’s been put together. It’s also pretty easy to upgrade. Also, Dawid, when you do break-off PCIe covers, just press inward and push back outward like how you’d get a pull-tab off a soda can.
  • @bjn714
    I use that Silicon Power RAM in budget client builds all the time. It's actually surprisingly decent apart from the packaging which may or may not extract some blood when you try to free the RAM from it.
  • @yogibear2k220
    So, did any other people like the way that Dawid edited out Anna's help when building the PC? She has taught him so well.......
  • @kyzh99610
    Absolutely love Dawid's style of gaming first casting second, always focusing more on games, and pausing his talking while shooting enemies. It shows that Dawid is a true gamer and could be an excellent play-by-play caster someday!

    Since I got my 7900XTX I miss all the fiddling with the settings trying to run games on an Intel UHD G1. Speaking of fiddling I recommend overclocking the iGPU (if your cooling can handle it) will definitely help it there are a bunch of guides on YT to get it running 10-20% faster.

    I've been seeing "Dawid does tech stuff" in YouTube maybe since the first or second day of 2021 and boy, this guy has never ceased to amaze me. His videos are always (I mean ALWAYS) beautifully crafted and you has to be an effing zombie if the script don't bring you a smile (or a cackle) to your face. Just this week, I was seriously considering bringing a new PC to my home, one that doesn't require my arm or my leg in exchange and what does I get in this channel? A video on how to get a PC that could cost USD $350 OR LESS but with enough stamina to play CYBERPUNK 2077 at not less than 40 frames per second AND with all the parts bought not in WISH or ALI-BABA, but in God damned AMAZON! Where the hell IN THE UNIVERSE could you get such a video? ONLY IN THIS CHANNEL! God bless you Dawid and keep up the good work! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
  • @crboxyt
    You are a madman! Love your content! You are the type of guy that could build a pc to buy the parts to build a pc and I'm saying it in a good way
  • @P_Five65
    I’m offended by the way your mounting the cooler. You should remove 4 screws and rotate that AMD logo to the top😂
  • @orenraveh1162
    Acctually Very Solid PC For Amazon Maybe Its Evolving
  • You accidentally made a really balanced rig after you dropped that GPU in there. Thats a nice set up for under $1000 right there.
  • The AMD logo on the cooler should go any direction other than the one you chose lol. Now it covers the first RAM slot.
