What would you change about this build?
I would just get a used 3060 under warranty with 12 gb vram 😅
I would use a cheaper kit of ram, there are $30-$40 kits that perform just as well
@@RohanSingh-ng6zc definitely a good option, I wanted to build a PC with all new parts for this build. Maybe I'll put together a budget option in the future with used parts as well
@@CDOG778 Definitely fair. But like i mentioned, the $10 was worth it for the name brand and "reliability" in our eyes
The CPU supports 3.0 i would change that to match the boards 4.0
i was seriously convinced this had to be somebody reuploading somebodys videos because your video quality and sub count dont match, you deserve way better
Maaaannn. I work so hard on these videos and seeing comments like this makes me feel so vindicated. Thank you Thank you Thank you so much, I appreciate the words!
@@kyle_munoz waws thinking exactly the same thing. S-tier framing.
Thank you so much!!
I'm so glad you didn't get a 3050. I love this build so much
I appreciate it!! 3050 ain’t it, at that point you’re just paying for the name.
I like that you put what you realistically paid. Many people do $500 builds, but when you try to build the same thing you can't even get close 🤣🤣.
exactly!! I hate when people do that!
Damn bro nice case!! looks like you could house the infinity gauntlet in there 😂❤🔥
LOL you’re not wrong! Maybe i should build the lego version and see if it fits 😂
@@kyle_munoz Dude it!!! hahaha
$80 for some Legos is WILD. Need some brand deals before i afford that haha!
Actually this is so wholesome how u help ur Dad to bring DEMOCRACY to the Galaxy! 💪
I’m pretty much a recruiter at this point
@@kyle_munoz I’ve been looking for people to play helldivers with. I have no one haha
wish i could, i dont really enjoy PvE games though
When the background music says "overrated" as you present the tower 300, was that intentional?
LOL no no completely unintentional!
Amazing video my younger brother also is looking for a entry level pc I’ll have to share this
That’s awesome! I’m glad I could help!
All you have to do is slap in 1440p GPU like 6750 or 7700 xt for Max fps after year or so if you are looking for 2k gaming that is..
1000%. And that was exactly the idea for this build. To make something affordable now that can be easily iterated and upgraded later on.
Love to see more PC build videos from you :)
Thank you Thank you! I got one or two more in the pipeline 🫡
You could have had a 3060, over all great bulid
Thank you! But a new 3060 for $160, I’m not so sure about that one
Great build with clear goals and a budget in mind! Love the case! I gotta say, with that CPU... upgrade that as soon as you can. Those are so not powerful. The reason why that 5500 is cheap is because it doesn't have the cache that the 5600 or 5600X has so it under performs a lot comparatively. But I love this and wanna do one similar!
I appreciate you!! The CPU is definitely what will be upgraded first. Everything I saw online was saying to get the 5600 over the 5500 but I was already tight on the budget as it was. Gonna try to squeeze as much out of it as I possibly can until then though LOL
@@kyle_munoz hey man, I got a Ryzen AM4 APU (5700G - 8 core 16 thread graphics cpu) laying around. It’s in perfect shape and I have a really nice cooler for it, a bunch of matching led fans, a fan controller, thermal paste, and an nvme SSD. would you like to collaborate and do a build with them if we work it out? I’m not really a tuber, but used to do some small streaming and love building pc for family and friends for small fees. Lemme know. I could sell it to ya for cheap too if you wanna do something solo too!
Yeah that would be sick! Send me an email and we can discuss!
Big W video and pc build
I appreciate you!
would love a minimal wardrobe tour bro
Ooooh Interesting! I think I could definitely come up with some interesting content around that. It’s officially in the works
Why don’t you have more subscribers. Keep up the grind
I appreciate it, I’ll do my best! 🫡
There's not much info bout tower 300 atleast in my area,thx to your vid,im really suprised to know that this beauty of a case supported M-atx mobo.i thought it only support itx mobo like its lil bro (tower 100)
Yeah it honestly went kind of under the radar. It’s a really great case with tons of flexibility and capability
whoa! the vid quality though huge thumbs up, idk how much is the regular 5600 non x cost there paired with a 6600/6600xt w/ a 550w psu and a cheap mAtx case would've been a better combo. but still nice build.
I appreciate it! I definitely looked at that combo and you’re totally right, it is better, it was just a bit out of our budget for this one.
I love pc build videos... I love PC's in the general (hence my name). with that being said, you sir earned a new sub. Keep up the good work and I will continue supporting.
Mannn I appreciate you!! Thank you so much!
Good video keep going I'm surprised at the amount of subscribers you have you deserve more keep the work up
Thank you Hunter! I appreciate it!
your editing is great love this video I also gonna buy a 5500 with 6650xt
I appreciate it! Super nice! It’s gonna be a great system for you!
@@kyle_munoz thanks

Great build, I love this case. I have the same one in dark green and call it my Halo build. How is that ARC GPU holding up?
Love that! 😂😂 GPU is doing great so far! The Intel Arc Control software is a little buggy but nothing crazy. I’ll update if anything dramatic comes up 👍
Should’ve went with the ryzen 3600 almost the same as the 5500 and could’ve saved yourself a couple bucks, but all in all nice build !!
Valid, definitely could’ve gone either way. Appreciate the input!
Very impressed with the production quality on this, keep it up. Also cool to see intel arc being a viable option after the rocky launch it had
Thank you so much Keiran!! Yeah it was definitely a rough start but it is nice to see something else we can look to besides just AMD and Nvidia. I’ll still keep an eye out on stability but so far so good 👍
Subscribed. Loved the video. Thank you.
I’m so glad you enjoyed!!
Looks like your a smaller channel. that surprised me based off of video quality. Youll go far!
I appreciate you! I hope you’re right!
adding the black bars makes me feel un-ez try removing it.
I’ll keep that in mind for future videos, i appreciate the input
You are so underrated!😭
i appreciate it!! Hopefully not for long 😁
Hey man, i just subbed so you now have 500 subs, congrats bro!!
LETS GOOO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Keep up to e great work man this video is fire!
Thank you, I will!!
What was the software you used to screen record? Does the Intel gpu driver has a option to screen record?
I used the Intel Arc Control software. In the studio tab there’s an option to Capture. But as the video shows, it’s not the smoothest recording and this was only recorded in 720p at 30fps
I might not be the popular guy to say this but if u keep posting these builds and this level quality videos , u will grow exponentially
Ur videos show effort
Found ur channel randomly and love it
Thank you so much I really appreciate it Rohan. I’m doing my best to keep em coming!
@@kyle_munoz Will support you by watching always , u have my word for it 💗
🫡
If i was told that you only had 450 subs, i would've called bs. I got along on the train too!
I APPRECIATE YOU!!
@@kyle_munoz nice build too, wish u the best
Thank you thank you! I really appreciate it!
awesome video bro fr thought i was watching some popular youtuber hope ur channel grows a ton
That means a lot thanks so much!!
Good video quality and nice content ❤
I appreciate it!!
Nice vid Sir. Hey, what is that wireless mic you're using? Audio sounds good.
Thank you! For the voiceover I used the Rode Video Micro and for the talking head i used the Hollyland Lark M2
I would rather get the Ryzen 5 5600g, or Ryzen 5 5600x, as they are better than the ryzen 5 5500, have boosted performance, and if you go with the 5600g it has integrated graphics, meaning its not terrible for gaming as a budget option
interesting point. If you mean to have the 5500g instead of a graphics card I’d argue that it would be terrible for playing games. 30fps max. But if you mean to just replace the 5500 with the 5600g, it didn’t fit in the budget i set for myself. I would’ve loved to get the 5600 for but that extra $50 would’ve put me over $450 for the internals. Realistically could’ve done that, but for the video…
@@kyle_munoz But a 5600g is 133$ on amazon, less than the 150$ you payed for the ryzen 5 5500
I only paid $94 for the 5500. They’re on sale for around that price at most major retailers (amazon, best buy, newegg) since it’s an older chip now
what recording software did u use? just so I don't make the same mistake
LOL, I recording using the Intel Arc Control Software. Not good 😅
@@kyle_munoz lol, we learn from our mistakes
100%
Since you actually spent 650, wouldn't it be better to get a cheaper case but with a higher level gpu?
100%, but my brother really liked the way this case looked so we ended up spending on it rather than anything else. 🤷 Plus as i explained, the internals were still only $450 so even with a case it could be a $500 build.
@@kyle_munozwould you be able to point me towards a smaller, less expensive case for a build like this? The components are all very good and I don’t have a preference besides the case not taking up a whole lotta space
To be honest, this case doesn’t take up much desk space. Since it’s vertical the footprint is actually smaller than a typical case. But if you want something smaller than the two i mentioned you could go for a SAMA IM01 or even a SSUPD Meshroom S. If you’re looking for anything smaller than those I think you’d have to change to an ITX size motherboard.
@@kyle_munoz okay, thank you

Dope video
Thank you brotha!
I just bought the racing green one
Such a nice case! I would’ve went for the racing green one too if this was my personal build. Great taste!
Love the looks of those thermaltake tower cases .
suuuper clean
well i dont know how your old system was from 2010......the i5 6400t was released in 2015!! It makes it difficult to believe anyone when they cant get fundamentals accurate!
LOL, the 2010 comment was hyperbole. Didn’t realize the release date of the old PC i was replacing would be such an integral part of the video for people. I’ll try to be more precise in my future vids 🫡
a 1080 ti would've been better than intel
Completely agree, but wanted new parts for this build. Could use the 1080ti for a used build in the future though.
@@kyle_munoz ok love you
🫡
how did u fit a 130 dollar case in 500 dollar budget
As I explained, the internals were $450 so with a $50 case it would be a total of $500. We just got a more expensive case because it’s what my brother liked
Probably would've got a cheaper case and pick up a better CPU.
Right, as i said in the video the actual build came out to closer to $650, but if you swap the case and a couple smaller parts it is a $500 build
Nicest guy
learned from the nicest
Nice video 🎉
Thank you!! Love the profile pic btw!
@@kyle_munoz I like yours too
lol ty
w big brother

verdict: the best 500€ pc for 650€
😂😂 exactly!
How much fps can this thing run at for fortnite
good question, I’ll download it tonight and let you know
@@kyle_munoz thanks!
@@kyle_munoz also I have never built a pc before, so is it hard to do?
@@RipFinnick Nah! There's tons of videos online showing step by step how to build. All you gotta do is follow along. Even better, find a video that shows how to build and just buy the same parts as them so you have the exact build guide. I'm sure you'll be able to do it no problem.
@@kyle_munoz ok!
quality/sub ratio is waaaaaaaaaay too low
I appreciate you!!
I thought it was a mac trashcan at first. =(
😂😂
« 2010 i5 6th gen »
over the 5500?
using overwatch (an 8 year old trash at this point) as a benchmark says nothing, i have a 2016 machine that ran this game smooth at 244hz with ultra settings after overwatch 2 update...
also rewatch your recording, it looks like 13 fps
I also tested on Helldivers… I also said the screen recording was choppy in the video.. 👍
