Hi! I love hearing from everyone. Please leave a comment if you enjoyed this video or have any questions.
Best wishes -- Jason
i have intell i7 8700.
but a radean 520 video card, i thinking of upgrading the card to play diablo 4 since my card will not do it.
or shoudl i upgrade to a new computer.
@@az21bob666 The Intel i7-8700 is a fast processor so if I were in your situation I would go ahead and purchase and install an up-to-date video card (NVidia, AMD) into your current computer. That will eliminate the bottleneck where your current video card is slowing the performance of your games. If you end up buying a new PC in the future, you can always move the new video card to it.
thank you very much, what card for say 120 t0 160 should i buy.
@az21bob666 I did some research for you and I think you best bet would be to buy a used AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card. I found a bunch on EBay for under $160. According to the www.videocardbenchmark.net website, it will perform 16x faster than your current Radeon 520 graphics card.
You can search EBay.com for: "amd rx 5600 xt". Make sure you read the full description of the product (so you don't end up buying a "parts only" broken one) and only buy from someone who has a good EBay rating. !!*** Most import though is to make sure you PC has room for a full sized graphics card and make sure your power supply has the appropriate power connectors available. ***!! The smaller store bought PCs might not have either.
I got the video card benchmark website address wrong when I initially replied to you. The correct address is: www.videocardbenchmark.net/
That was very helpful, thank you. I appreciate the way you cut right to the chase and tell people what to look for, what the basic specs you need are, and how to shop.
I particularly appreciated the advice to just stick to intel processors and to filter results by "available in store." When I've gone online to shop in the past, I've been overwhelmed by the hundreds of computers available, not to mention all the specs to sort through. Too many choices! Paralysis of analysis! But you simplified the process considerably.
I also appreciate the tip about the discount prices being essentially meaningless (i.e., not a reflection of quality).
With your help, I was able to pick a computer out in less than an hour. Thank you again for your very straightforward and clear explanation of the process.
A very informative video. Thank you.
Thank you! I'm buying a new desktop, so finding this was timely. I appreciate the clarity of the communication. I am very appreciative: new subscriber, thumbs up, bell rung. I felt like a knowledgeable person was here with me with good and practical advice.
You're very welcome and thank you for your kind words! I'm glad the information reached you at the perfect time. Cheers! -- Jason
Such an amazing and helpful video!! Wow! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you found the video helpful. :) -- Jason
Great video. Thanks!

This was very useful. Thank you!
Glad I could help -- Have a great weekend!
Great video !!!
Thx
Thanks for the compliment! I'm glad you liked it! :)
Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome! Thank you for your comment. Cheers! - Jason :)
Great Video, thank you. I'm just starting my search for a new desktop and I will use the information from this video.
I'm glad you found the video helpful! Intel is now shipping their 13th and 14th generation CPUs so look for a computer whose CPU starts with 13xxx or 14xxx if you can. Have a great day! -- Jason
Thanks for this helpful info
Hi @lynnmitch ! Did you end out buying a new computer? How did it turn out?
@@JasonBagnell no I’m a Mac user but my mom wanted me to help her buy a new PC. So I was researching for her. She hasn’t bought one yet though.
Thank you so much for this video. I had to purchase a new computer as I had a very old one. I had no knowledge about what to buy and I can tell you that I would have probably bought the one on “sale” because of limited computer knowledge and the price. I am so glad I came across your video and made a great purchase! You helped me save money, time, and frustration. Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge and expertise, I don’t know what I would do without CZcams!!
Hi, I'm so glad the video helped you! Your situation is exactly why I made the video. I'll may be creating a newer 2024 version of the video sometime soon but the basics will remain the same. Have a great day and enjoy your new PC! Cheers -- Jason
Good walk through for computer dummies, such as myself. Thanks
Thank you so much! I hope you’re having a great holiday season - Jason
This is an Awesome Video!!!😀😀😀
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you found the video helpful. A few years have gone by but the concepts still remain the same. Look for PCs that are in the 12th, 13th or 14th generation and you’ll be all set. Cheers - Jason
Thankyou exactly what I needed as someone who doesn't know anything about computers 💓
I’m glad the video helped you! 😁
Cheers - Jason
Will be in the market for a new computer for small business and this exact info I needed to make my purchase
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad the information was helpful :)
Well done
Thank you so much!! :)
Great vid. Thanks.
Can you connect the tower computer on any Monitor brand?
Yes, the brand of the monitor does not matter. Just make sure that the video output on the computer matches the input type on the monitor. For example, if the computer has a HDMI monitor output port, make sure the monitor connect it to has an HDMI input. If not, you can get away with buying a cable that is HDMI on one end and Display Port on the other end, or a cable that has HDMI on one end and DVI on the other end. Just know that if you use the DVI-to-HDMI cable, sound will not be sent through the cable (in case your monitor has built in speakers). I hope this helps! Cheers -- Jason
Really helpful! I'm getting ready to start working from home so I'll be doing a lot of video chats, graphic design and a bit of gaming on the side. And brands I should avoid?
Dell, HP, Lenovo and Asus make great desktop and laptop PCs as long as you don't buy anywhere near the bottom of the barrel. I have never been impressed by any Acer's PCs of laptops. Stay away from any brand you've never heard of unless you are buying a powerful gaming computer, and then the Dell Alienware, HP Omen or CyberPowerPC brands have worked well for my customers. Have a great day! -- Jason
If your on a budget I recommend get a good widows pc but if your happy to spend the money I highly recommend get a iMac or Mac mini or a MacBook they are way better for the stuff you want to do on a computer
Great breakdown on what to look for in a computer, exactly what I needed!
Thank you! I'm glad it was helpful!
Major helpful for this old lady. They put some stuff up like ssdram, or 8 core, blah, blah....if you are tech..no problem. But people like myself, who are in their 80's and still do a lot computer work, there really needs to be more explanations as to what is what and how to judge it. You helped a great deal on the processor benchmark. I have several printers, and 3 plotters (no they are not used at the same time) however, the software that it takes to run them, and my two Cutters, (Silhouette, and Curio 2) you need a 2.5 Ghz. I agree with at least a 1TB hard drive. Microsoft bloats the *&^% out their operating system, and need all the room you can get...LOL. Thank you, Jason for the info....it is a gem....
You're welcome and thanks for your kind words! :) I will be making an updated version of this video sometime in the next few months. All of the concepts in the new video remain the same but Intel is now selling their 14th generation processors. I just built myself a new PC that has the Intel i9-14900K CPU and it is completely amazing. It's CPUBenchmark.net score is over 60,000 - believe it or not! That's some serious speed! Have a great day -- Jason
Jason, thank you for all this information!
Im looking for a desktop computer, mainly for books and imaging (Xrays/CT scans). Could you please recommend me any brand or PC thats enough for my necessities? One that could run up to 2 monitors as well.
Again, thank you.
Sorry to bother you.
Hi! Lenovo has an $899.99 "Gaming" computer that is powerful and also has an advanced graphic card installed. The PC has outputs for (1) HDMI and (3) DisplayPort monitors. You can use a simple DP-to-HDMI cable or DP-to-DVI cables from Amazon to allow non-DisplayPort monitors to be connected to the additional DisplayPort outputs. The i5-13400F processor is a real power house and it outperforms my 4 year old Intel i9-9900K processor. 16GB of memory is great and the PC also comes with a SSD drive too. The pictures do NOT show the nVidia GeForce 3050 outputs on the back of the case but those ports will be there when you receive the computer. See: www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-loq-tower-gaming-desktop-intel-core-i5-13400f-16gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3050-8gb-lhr-512gb-ssd-ravel-black/6558741.p?skuId=6558741 ... or search BestBuy.com for: 6558741
I hope this helps!! Have a great day -- Jason
Thank you so much Jason, I looked for good advice and I got it. No bs or unnecessary info. I'm trying to buy a PC so I can use editing programs for ads and promos. No gaming at all, do you have any suggestions? I'm going to use davinci resolve studio.
Hi Thomas, thanks so much for your kind words! Because you want to use video editing programs, the cheaper sub-$800 PCs are out because of the case size and power supply limits. If you're looking to buy a pre-built PC from a major manufacturer, you will need to purchase the company's "Gaming" line to get one with a bigger power supply and room for a great graphics card. I just found a great price on Dell Alienware PC for $1,199.99 (supposedly $750 off) that has an Intel i7-12700F CPU, 16GB RAM, AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT video card and a 512GB SSD. You would want to increase the SSD to at least 1TB and upgrade to 32GB RAM (or do that later) to have a good video editing PC. Check it out at the following URL: www.dell.com/en-us/shop/gaming-and-games/alienware-aurora-r13-gaming-desktop/spd/alienware-aurora-r13-desktop/wdr13aur202soh
I looked up it's i7-12700F CPU on CPUBenchmark.Net and found that it is 68% *FASTER* than the i9-9900K chip that I'm using now. Holy cow!!!
I hope this helps!
Jason
@@JasonBagnell Thanks Jason, good things will come your way I know it
@@JasonBagnell Unfortunately I live in Norway so I can't buy from the website you provided, but I will take your advice😁
Good video. I was wondering if the newer SSDs were reliable. Good to know.
I thought you were going to suggest a smaller SSD, and simply buy and install an additional 1TB HDD. If they're advertised as having additional slots, is the power supply still limited to only what's installed? I never thought about reading the power supply specs when considering adding components.
Thank you! Yes, I've found the Samsung SSDs to be very reliable, so when given a choice, I go with Samsung. As far as having a small boot drive, you can always add a mechanical hard drive for extra (slow) storage but you definately don't want to keep running out of room on the PC's C: drive. It would be almost useless to buy a Windows based computer with only 128GB. It would only hold the operating system and a few programs and it would begin to fill up quickly as Windows Updates came in over time.
About the power supply -- The cheaper store bought PCs usually have a proprietary or small power supply that can't be upgraded to a more powerful model. The cases on the cheaper store bought PCs are usually are too small to fit a full-sized graphics card (like the NVidia RTX-3080/3090, etc). Aside from not having room to fit an advanced graphics card, you won't have to power connectors you need either.
Even though the cheaper store bought computer are somewhat limited, if you're not gaming, you can get A LOT of power for the money you pay. Make sure to buy a newer one that has an Intel 12th generation or 13th generation CPU. Intel's 12th and 13th generation CPUs leave my 9th gen i9-9900K CPU in the dust. I would consider buying or building myself a new computer that has an Intel i5-13600K CPU because it would perform 2 times faster than my older i9. The new chips are amazingly fast!

Hahaha thanks so much Jason, I have been straggling but I got you sir, give me your link brother.(am from Uganda)
Very informative.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful :)
Thank you I needed this information badly , I do not know much about how computers work and I do not want to buy a piece of junk.
I’m so happy that the video was helpful for you! Thanks for subscribing! 😁
Hi, my PC hp 110-417 b , Is don't turn on today , went I plug out the back power cable and plug in again turn on but in 3 second shutdown I believe is the internal power supply, this PC have about 10 year , so is time to change , what is the best 5 option lower price to high for buy a combo or tower,and were Thank you
It sounds like your old PC needs a new power supply. They are usually $50 or less. You can also open the PC's case and try removing and reinstalling the memory modules, graphics card, etc. Use compressed air to blow out any dust from the inside and from the fans. Also blow out any dust that might be INSIDE the power supply. Don't spend too much money fixing your old PC because it is very slow by today's standards. As for a new computer, I've been super busy and don't have any recommendations for you at this moment but if I find something soon I will reply back to this comment. What is your budget for the new computer? Thanks -- Jason
Would you please make a video on: Monitor; Tower; Keyboard and Mouse setting up???
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll definately add that to my list of future videos that I create. Cheers -- Jason
2nd ? Lacking CD blue ray drives? Recording data what's the new removable drive?
Yes, DVD drives are becoming more rare. Other options are: USB Flash Drives, External USB Hard Drives, Cloud Storage (Dropbox, OneDrive, Box.com, etc), or add an external USB DVD drive to the computer if you need one.
1st Q store shopping vs going to direct manufacturers connection?
Hi! If you find a good deal on a powerful computer directly from the manufacturer, it would be fine to order directly from them. The retail stores do a pretty good job of keeping a handful of the better-selling PCs in stock and you don't need to wait for them to ship the PC to your location. Use the concepts from this video to guide you in figuring out what to buy. The current Intel CPUs are now in the 13th and 14th generation, so look for a PC whose processor model number starts with 13xxx or 14xxx. Thanks -- Jason
I'm a photographer and I have at least 2,500 photos on my system. I'm running three 1 TB hard drives. I'm trying to find something I can afford. Living on Social Security seems great, but it isn't when you need to buy a new computer. I'm watching you video looking for someing that will work.In addition I need to run CDs and xD micro chips. My cameras run the micro chips and to down load photos I need to plug the chip into the computer.
Hi! The fastest, most affordable (on sale for $250 off today) PC I can find right now is this "Dell Inspiron 3020S Small Desktop PC" that has a fast i5-13400 processor, 8GB of Memory, a 512GB SSD drive and Windows 11 Home. It also has a 5-in-One Media Card Reader. It is being sold at OfficeDepot.com for $449.99 until 5/25/2024. See: www.officedepot.com/a/products/8855342/Dell-Inspiron-3020S-Small-Desktop-PC The only shortcoming it has for you is that the PC only has 0.5TB of hard drive space. It does have an empty 3.5" SATA hard drive bay so you could pay Office Depot's tech team to add a 4GB mechanical hard drive to increase it's capacity. I have sold several of these PCs to my customers and I love how much power/performance you get for the money. Note: It has one DisplayPort and one HDMI port that allows you to connect up to two monitors to the PC. It does NOT have a VGA port, so make sure your current monitor supports HDMI or DisplayPort connections. Just something to consider! Cheers -- Jason :)
One more thing… I just noticed that the PC I told you about does NOT come with a DVD drive. Most new computers do not have one these days, unfortunately. You can order an external DVD drive that connects to the computer with a USB cable if you need one. - Jason
I'm looking at the Dell 3020. I have now a Dell 570. My monitor that came with it is still good. Will it work with the 3020. And I don't understand a lot of tech talk, please.
I looked up pictures of both PCs on EBay. The Dell Inspiron 570 Desktop PC has VGA and HDMI monitor ports. The Dell Optiplex 3020 has VGA and DisplayPort monitor ports. So, if you monitor is currently using a VGA cable it will work fine on either computer. If your monitor only supports HDMI, you will need to buy a DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable, from Amazon, OfficeDepot.com, etc for it to work on the Dll Optiplex 3020 computer.. I hope this helps! You can go to Google.com and search for "VGA Cable" or "HDMI Cable" to see what each of these looks like. The VGA cable has 3-row of tiny pins for a total of 15 pins.
what do you think of the dell inspiron 3020. i already bought it ..checked specs with friend
CPU i7
1 tb storage
16 gb or Ram with 2 slots up to 64. $699 plust tax.
i don't game videos on youtube, netflix, email etc.
whats your opinion?
i treated myself to a 27 inch monitor and wireless keyboard
😊😊😊 Im ecstatic..
how do i transfer my info from one computer to another
Hi! If that's the brand new Dell Inspiron 3020 with the 13th generation Intel i7-13700 processor, 16GB of RAM and 1TB SSD drive, you're in for a real treat and it will be super fast! That processor is 2 times faster than the CPU in my Intel i9-9900K video editing rig. Hopefully it has a SSD and not a mechanical hard drive (most computers come with SSD drives these days). Enjoy! -- Jason :)
I don't understand a lot of computer jargon . but could you please tell me if the HP pavillion Desktop Tp014009 with an intel corei5 .13400 ssd memory 16 gb with 512 gb ssd would work well with maybe widows 12 , 13 14 ?????? I am afraid it might become obsolete in a hurry , please help me if you can, it is for home use I would not be storing much on it , I read that HP is a good brand that you can trust feel free to offer your thoughts if you will.
I think a HP PC with those specifications would serve you well! The 13th generation Intel processor is the latest and you would be in great shape for the future. 16GB of memory is ideal too. The CPUBenchmark.net sped rating for the processor is 25,278 which is faster than my older i9 PC. Because you aren’t storing much, the 512Gb SSD drive would be fine
Cheers - Jason
Thank you sir that is a big relief, I was afraid I would buy the wrong computer that would not meet my needs , I am very grateful . @@JasonBagnell
Who’s one for writing and maybe publishing?
Hi! Here's a very powerful yet affordable PC I came across this morning on OfficeDepot's website: www.officedepot.com/a/products/7812249/Lenovo-IdeaCentre-5i-Desktop-PC-Intel/ It is on sale right now for $270.00 off until 11/11/2023. $679.99 - It has a very fast Intel i7 processor, 16GB of memory and a 512GB Solid State drive. It also has HDMI and VGA monitor outputs so you can connect two monitors for a dual display experience. Just make sure that one of the monitors supports VGA if you are going to connect two. Cheers -- Jason
Which laptops would you recommend for engineering? I don’t know from which brand to buy from😅, I’m not looking for any Apple though thanks!
Hi! The Dell Precision 5470 laptops are built with Engineering and CAD in mind. They are very configurable and you can order one with a nVidia RTX A1000 GPU for approved AutoCAD graphics compatability. Choose 32 or 64GB of RAM and a 12th or 13th generation i7 CPU and you will be set for years! Here’s a link to Dell’s website:

Good evening sir, Great video, thank you. I am a pastor. I got an Hp 34 monitor, what specification of tower can I buy to do a live streaming for the church. I need something fast, and storage of videos and Pictures. What can I buy ?
Hi! I just found a great desktop tower PC for your application. Here is a link to it on BestBuy's Website:
www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-ideacentre-gaming-5i-gaming-desktop-intel-core-i5-12400f-16gb-memory-nvidia-rtx-3050-512gb-ssd-raven-black/6535023.p?skuId=6535023
I like this PC because it is under $900 and comes with a dedicated NVidia Graphics Card (instead of using a lower powered intergrated GPU). It has 16GB of memory and has a 512GB m.2 SSD drive which is very fast. The CPU is a 12th Generation i5-12400F which is actually faster than the 3 year old Intel i9-9900K computer I use for my 4K video editing. I've configured one of these PCs before and my customer was very happy with it. For monitor outputs, it has (1) HDMI 2.0 port and (1) DisplayPort 1.4 port and will run your nice 34" HP monitor well.
I hope this helps. Cheers! -- Jason
4th? What to do with outdated system?
Hi again! I made a video on how to easily "secure erase" a Windows (8 or later) PC so you can sell it, donate it or dispose of it without worrying about your personal data getting getting into the wrong hands. See: czcams.com/video/zW2v3M_xFVY/video.html
Is 240 pound budget good enough?
Hi! That's about $300 in USD. In the USA, there is a used computer store near me called "Refresh Computers". I looked at their inventory and found that they do have a few PCs available at that price point that support running (or come with) Windows 11 pre-installed. It is important to NOT spend money on a PC that doesn't support Windows 11 because Microsoft has stated that Windows 10 will no longer be supported towards the end of 2025.
That being said, you should be shopping for a PC that has an Intel 8th generation CPU or NEWER so it will be able to run Windows 11. You should choose a PC with at least 8GB of memory/RAM and you'll want one that has a SSD drive (and NOT a mechanical hard drive). Here's one used example from my local computer store: $289.99, Intel i7-8700, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Windows 11 Pro: refreshcomputers.net/shop/product/dell-optiplex-7060-sff-i7-8700-3-2ghz-8gb-512gb-ssd-nvme-windows-11-pro/
And another example: $309.99 - Intel i5-9500 CPU, 16GB Memory/RAM, 512GB SSD, Windows 11 Pro: refreshcomputers.net/shop/product/dell-optiplex-3070-mt-tower-core-i5-9500-3-0ghz-4-4ghz-16gb-512gb-ssd-windows-11-pro/
It looks like there are some good used PCs out there at your price point so search EBay or the local computer stores for a PC that has similar specifications: SSD drive, 8+ GB of memory, 8th generation or newer Intel processor.
Good luck on your search! Cheers -- Jason :)
Hi Jason which computer you recommended for tax preparer??
Hi Lisandra -- I took a quick look at Office Depot and Best Buy's website and found a Dell Inspiron 3020 for $799.99 that has a SUPER FAST 13th generation Intel i7 processor, 16GB of memory and a 512GB SSD. You can connect 2 monitors to it (HDMI, Display Port) but it does not come with a monitor. It does come with a no-frills keyboard and mouse. It has WiFi 6 support, and also has a gigabit ethernet/network port. It's CPU/Processor is twice as fast as my Intel i9-9900K video editing rig! You will be happy with this computer for a LONG time! This PC is considered a "Business Computer" and will work impressively well but you can't ever turn it into a gaming PC due to size and power supply limitations. For accounting work, it would be a MONSTER!! :)

3d? Brand i 8:23 importance?
My customers usually end up with a Dell, HP or Lenovo PC or laptop. Asus is also another good manufacturer. Everyone has their own opinion but those brands are the ones that I end up working on. It might be that those companies provide the retail stores with fairly powerful computers at lower prices, which makes the consumers buy lots of them, which makes the stores quickly restock their shelves.
These days most of the computer's electronics are integrated onto the motherboard. The major manufacturers tend to design their own proprietary motherboard and cases that are designed to integrate with each other. Then they use industry standard parts for the rest. Meaning, the memory, hard drive, video card, etc. are obtained for other companies like Micron, Seagate, Western Digital, nVidia, etc. The manufacturers know that they need to do a good job building their PCs and choosing good hardware because they will have to support hundreds of thousands of them once the PCs hit the market. The manufacturers spend a lot of time testing their PC configurations before they hit the market for that reason, and those PCs tend to be very reliable.
Because most people want to buy a computer that is fast as possible for a price that is low as possible, most of the pre-built PCs that sell for under $1,000 will work perfectly if you leave them in their stock configuration. They have a very low wattage power supply that is also very small in size. It is exactly the right size/power to run the PC in it's stock configuration but if you want to install a powerful video card or change the i3 CPU to a powerful i9-K series CPU, the power supply will be insufficient and you won't be able to install a more powerful power supply into the computer because it won't fit in the PC's case. Anyone one wants to upgrade their PC over time should purchase a "gaming PC" that allows you to easily replace the Power Supply and Motherboard. Otherwise, the pre-built cheaper off-the-shelf PCs are perfectly fine.
Ok good video right there but you changed the name so more people would click on it this was made in 2022-2023 it's 2 years old you are not slick
You’re right, I had pulled the date off of the thumbnail image but left it in the title, so I just removed it. CZcams took over 500 days to give the video it’s first 500 views and then they started sending viewers to it like crazy. Even though the Intel CPUs have reached newer generations, the concepts presented still remain valid. Thanks for your comment. - Jason
@@JasonBagnell lol i dont care what you did to get people to click. i learned so much from this video, and I've been lazily looking at how to CHOOSE a computer for a few years now. this video is great. thanks so much, jason
