That CPU cooler is clearly meant for overclockable CPUs.

and he got a motherboard that doesn't support overclocking qq

Could hit 4ghz on R5 1600 with that cooler...

Wait, the coolers $75!?!? Why the hell not go with the 212???

Im so sorry linus forces you to buy all of the listed parts for this build.....oh? Whats that? You could just not buy the fancy case and aftermarket cooler and stfu? Ohh ok cool

I could have had the exact pc but ...miners..

the prices are normal now though

It's possible, if you can get a hold of some used vintage Raspberry Pis and find some LEDs and Wire from your local scrapyard, out of the cars. Possible, but not likely. Furthermore you wouldn't be able to run Doom on it.

I wasn't part of the complaining but let's be honest that's not what he meant by saying budget and you know it.

Carlos Silva adjective 1. inexpensive. "a budget guitar"

It was just poor wording on LTT:s part, no need to be mad.

Or you can have a budget of $1000 for a nice guitar

$99,90 - PURE BASE 600 $74.90 - DARK ROCK 3 $75.90 - PURE POWER 10-CM 600W ---------------------------------------------------------- $250.70 - for case, power supply and cooler on $1000 budget build! 1/4 of your money spent on useless $hit. Way to go Linus. Keep selling Your reputation.

if your not trolling you have issues

M K Useless shit? Have you ever seen a PC without a power supply or case? These are neccessary and honestly not overpriced. But I agree the Cooler is a bit too much, although silent. Can easily save 75 there.

I meant that he could use stock cooler and buy the cheapest case and power supply, or eaven used ones on ebay. Those components don't really matter. The whole lot should probably cost $50 not $250. Imagine how much more powerful cpu or gpu could he have gotten with the $200 saved.

Stock coolers are shit, why do you think most people buy an after market CPU cooler. And most cheap cases have shit build quality and don't look good and have bad air flow. And a 75 dollar power supply is on the cheap side of a good, power efficient PSU and will save you money in the long run on electricity and will last longer.

Balázs Rakó lol my first time looking at PC to game and I saw this video. was honestly thinking about it until I saw comments. thanks for commenting how bad this is lol

Don't buy a PC now because now graphic cards are really expensive because Etherium miners bought most of the video cards and now they are very expensive so you should wait

Where did you get one for so low???

Amazon has the evga 1080 hybrid for 580

An RX 1600 at 220 is probably still better though. It's close to or much better than the i5, depending on how the applications scales with multiple cores. The i5 would only be better at current 1080p gaming, while Ryzen would be better in most demanding non-gaming programs and will work better in the future, because of 6 core support that will inevitably come thanks to Coffee Lake, so both CPU manufacturers will soon have 6 core mainstream CPUs.

yes it is......he is still shilling for intel(he still has to show some luv for all those free cpu's they have been sending him) even though there is NO reason for anyone to buy a new i5 anymore. Even the r5 1400 with 8 threads is better for the money. (I have i7 BTW so no fanboying here)

+nictheperson How so? It's no secret their products are on the expensive side. And personally I think the build turned out damn good.

Because people feel like triggerd if in a budget PC are actually "good" components and not the shitty stuff, i can't believe how triggered people are in this comment section and I bet none have ebver had be quiet!

Noone said that BeQuiet sucks... I also use BeQuiet Powersupplies but In this Case It was over the top.. you don't need to spend so much money for cpu cooler and case if you use a locked i5... the money could have been invested much better.

I was waiting for a comment like this one :D. Thank you Pauls Hardware.

of course he could use amd and evga psu and some generic case with good cable management stuff

I agree, it would be a good middle ground. This is not a budget build and is incredibly misleading.

Why is that not a buget build? Are you so triggered by the word budget? 2000 budget PC is also a budget PC.

because some of the parts were not the best choice for a 1k computer like the case and cpu cooler if he was choosing that cpu

Strongly agree.

At least in EU you will live long enough to use it, fat fuck.

When all of the console people want fuel for how expensive PC gaming is around Scorpio launch they will be able to point to this "respected" PC tech youtuber. Lovely.

You can definitely do a budget build for $1000. Budget is not the same as cheap.

I'm not usually one to bicker about PC builds, many ways to do it and I don't care if it isn't 100% optimal here and there. But this is upsetting, he's fucking people over with overpriced sponsored parts in a build that makes no sense. For shame Linus, good to know what kind of channel this is I guess.

60$+ high-end aircooler for a non OC CPU in a budget build ?? why not custom watercool that thing... That is not a budget build, that is a poser build with "Flashy" name-brand components and little performance to boot..

MEME LORD I hope u used a different Cpu cooler 😁

NiicoplayZ I used the stock wraith cooler with my Ryzen 1400

^Now that is a smart build. Fuck sticking a locked i5 in a build like this with that massive cooler.

Hadgerz Here's my PCPartPicker build: pcpartpicker.com

Whats wrong with the cooler it's really quite and stays at same speed. I have the one one time bigger and it's perfect even if you don't overclock.

You can save more on cpu and get a better gpu and still save on a ryzen build and lower cost case. I mean what are they thinking?

FitLikeAGlove Be Quiet only has cooler for intel.

FitLikeAGlove the sad thing is that Linus totally know that a 75 USD cooler for a cpu of less than 65W of TDP is simply stupid.

The thing is that with these "budget" videos we want maximum performance for $1000, not maximum silence.

@fitlikeaglove u might wanna get the r7 1700 and oc it to 3,9 or 4 Ghz and save some money the r7s from what i saw hit all around that mark on all cores so possibly no need to spent more, but hey the 1800x is a great cpu so i hope u will be happy with either choice.

quiteness reasons I think, and also because bequiet sponsorized the video

5:49

Crummy Wizard probably to keep it cool. My i7 3770 runs pretty hot even with a be quiet cooler. Full load @4.9ghz 73-75° c

crashniels full load 75 degrees isnt hot at all...

full load 90 degrees is pretty hot

he alwase bragged about this ( in the past ) not any more ;)

Well this is a build guide, a video to help someone put together the computer after they've bought all the parts. They didn't say you're going to get the best performance per dollar out of it. By saying $1000 budget, that just means they could only spend up to $1000, it doesn't mean anything about performance. And the line about "value optimized" around 2 minutes in could mean they value aesthetics over performance, which in this case means they sold out to Be Quiet!

ColPaint, don't be disingenuous. Everyone in the Pc gaming commmunity has the same defition for value optimized and 1000 dollar budget. list/ZbMCcc (that is for pcpartpicker). With that build i got in a hard drive with TWICE the space (2tb instead of one), a gtx 1070 vs an rx 480, and the operating system and we are still under budget (almost 50 bucks under budget) and performance wise objectively this would perform better

Agreed, when I look at a vid for a budget build I have a reasonable expectation that the maker of said vid researched and found the best performing parts at the given price point. Aesthetics are nice, but tempered glass and rgb don't help performance.

I was trying to make a funny comment by making it seem like I was arguing while in the end pointing out what everyone else is already saying about LMG bending over to make a video advertising Be Quiet. I guess it didn't work.

aesthetac I'm using my 1070 is a cardboard box, my power supply was 10$ and, while it broke 10 times the last week, I managed to get it replaced everytime. And man, I cheaped out on the cooler, I have a friend constantly blowing air on the heatspreader!

Yeah right.

lol

I would rather have a quiet and cool system than being able to get 20 more frames

Marcio Easho i dont think its about that tbh. You can get both a quiet and cool system with a 1070 and 7600k. Its not even like its going to be that much louder a couple decibels at most which you wont even notice if you wearing headphones. Put a CM 212 and some fans and you will get a lot more for your money. I'd prefer a 'quiet and cool' system that can play at 60fps+ 1440p and VR than just a 'quiet and cool system' Case closed.

h-he did....

Ryzen sucks for gaming, so this build is actually good for everyone and not just workstation users.

Lol bullshit. Ryzen doesn´t "suck" for gaming. The only people who will even notice a difference are super high refreshrate gamers that have GPU setups you only have wet dreams off. Your puny GPU won´t even stress a 6 core Ryzen chip. Just stay away from the Quadcores, no point. There is only very certain use-cases where stronger single core performance matters, and that is the simulation crowd, as our engines are old and not multi-threaded.

how does it suck for gaming? i dont think a 3-5 % difference in most games is worth sacrificing both the core advantage, value, and workstation power that the ryzen chips have just to get a little extra performance, which mind you, will get much worse in the future due to AMD working with developers to get the games optimised for the architecture. Also could you fuck off with replying to every comment on this video, you're acting like a child

also I don't think games will keep limiting for four cores for long, Ryzen 5 gives 3~5% disadvantage in some games, with major advantages and better minimum framerates (less stutter) in others also it's locked i5 vs unlocked Ryzen, overclock and ggwp

how ryzen sucks in gaming?any ryzen 5 cpu can beat the ass out of i5 7500 in games and if you compare productivity and multitasking performance then it can even screw that shitty i7 7700k don't be blind

well, uh, you can't really build a laptop. well, you can, but it would be way too time consuming and really impractical. pc's are way better than laptops. though really it depends on what you need it for.

Daniel Pérez comparing a 1700 to an i5-7500? 4 threads vs 16 lmao

+Blessman Fred for $100 difference you can skip the cooler and get the ryzen 1700. That's just what I would do for a 1k build.

Why?

Yeah qality stuff is expensive. Cheap stuff fail and cost double the prise tag. I ain't got enough money to buy cheap. And if you are saying i5 7500 (the best bang for your money from Intel) and Asus MoBo (probably the best MoBo manifacturer) is compromisng than you need a wake up call. You don't need a fancy gaming MoBo. It doens't give you anything more than a hole in your pocket. And OC CPUs are cool to tinker with, but at the end of the day you pay 30%+ more for OC CPU, high priced MoBo and high speed RAM and get about 10% more performance. OC is for people that want to OC, not for people that want to save money. The 2 can't wrk together.

I'm not saying buy cheap no-name eBay parts. You can save quite a bit of money getting a Cooler Master cooler, entry-level Corsair Carbide tower, and a $40 EVGA power supply. It won't be as cool looking or quiet but the money saved can go towards an overclockable CPU and motherboard or towards a better graphics card.

I could bye cooler master cooler that is the same price. The cheper Cooler master are the same compared to cheaper be quiet in performance. Its just the brand name, so that is inconsecuential. A CPU cooler is a CPU cooler and for the same price you get similar performance no matter the brand. there are diferences, but those are about a person's preferance, not major diference in quality. Corsair Carbide c400 is in fact my choice of case. However again with the case its the brand that is diferent, but not the quality. 100 dolars can get you c400, be quiet silent base 600, NZXT 340 elite and so on and so on. But if you go chaper you get the same overall quality for the same price no matter the brand. Again it is up to a person where they spend their money. Some care about silent, because once you get used to quiet fans, the stock Intel stuff drive you mad. Others wan't cool looking PC, because if they are to give a crapload of money they wan't it to at least be awesome to look at since it will be in front of tham for hours, and a few less fps is ok for that. Others still care about performance per dolar and nothing else. It can look like crap, sound like a jet engine and heat up the room like a radiator in winter, buit it can run Crysys" so they are happy. Some people want to Overclack, just to be able to tinker with the PC and overclack, even though an OC CPU gives you about 5-10% fps diference in games and costs 20-30% more to buy the CPU, MoBo and RAM combo. And all of those are valid. However you can't say Linus is compromising on the CPU and MoBo, for useless crap like CPU Cooler, case fans PSU etc. Its just diferent take on a build, and what a person wants to acheve. If you wan't most performance out of the PC, this is not for you. If you wan't silent, cool, nice looking, high quality, power efficient PC, that will last 5-10 yers, even though it gets slightly less fps than this is legit. I stll would get gtx 1060 3GB and a diferent case but the main idea is totally fine.

+Alexander Radev, Finally found someone in the comments that gets it!

In my opinion, this is a much better build. pcpartpicker.com/list/ 1600 comes with cpu cooler and it is good enough, you can upgrade later. 8gb ram is enough as well. Even cheaper by going for an rx580, or take out SSD ( but seriously don't, they are great ), or cheaper case and PSU. This supports overclocking as well.

wtf a i 7500 costs 200€ and a rx 480 230€ ... so you have 170 for a SSD, HDD, Mobo, case etc... not very realistic Linus built is more like a 850-900 built

Yeah stay away from AMD graphics for now. Hopefully Vega actually makes them competitive vs Nvidia.

as did his perception of dollar to performance... this rig is shit for the price point

He was showing what it's like to build a PC for the first time ever. Trial and error. That's also why he went back to move his SSD.

lol giving him this much credit is funny but the reality is he probably just didn't realize. He added it to the video for the comedic effect and, as you said, showing the trial and error

maybe its common for him to put the thermal compound right after putting the cpu

SilVorTeX As well as save $30 - $40 on the expensive cooler, pointless for such a low TDP locked CPU

That isn't exactly a gaming processor.

Neither is the 7400, but with core perf so close to intel you'd be nuts to be buying 4c4t processors for performance builds

If it was a secondhand one, I'd take it.

sponsored video

A nice case is, by definition, not value. You pay more for the same performance. Free to, but there are perfectly good cases for 30€ that don't have sharp edges, are compatible with most of the stuff you'd run in a gaming rig and have a perfectly good airflow (it doesn't really take a transcendental genius to make a case with decent airflow, after all).

Video is sponsored by be quiet

Eara Soulous im guessing you overpayed too...

Chris De La Cruz not really I like my case :/ I mean it's originally a 150$ case got it for 80 on sale so eh. Not cheap aluminum or plastic and looks nice and feels nice.

Moderate house? Not in the area Linus is from. All but the most run down crack shacks go for at least 300k. That being said, yeah could have made a lot better build for the money

Talis Paley I was referring to like butt fuck nowhere, Iowa but yeah I'm from LA cheap housing isn't in my vocabulary

As someone who's in butt fuck nowhere, Iowa, we paid less than the exorbitant (especially for YT) camera kit for our moderate house. ;-)

Hell I Was even able to make a sub $1k build with a 7600k, a z270 mb, aftermarket cooler and gtx1070

I think in this context "really nice" and "moderate" are not inclusive definitions.

I actually laughed out loud to this.

elpokor linus. pin this!

Hahaha nice one

OMEGALUL

The CPU isn't even overclockable, so it doesn't need anything beyond the stock cooler. This is so fucking dumb.

menyus its bullshit to choose an aftermarket Cooler for i5 7500

it is a sponsored video, don't know if you can see that on mobile (you probably watched it in your phone if you didn't read it) so it has to feature the sponsors

+Irving Chies - that's still no reason to be completely unreasonable. Be quiet! has way more budget friendly options available (e.g. Pure Rock instead of Dark Rock 3 for $50 less, 500W Power supply of the same model instead of 600W, $25 less) and 2400 Mhz RAM on a Mainboard supporting only 2133 are another $20 wasted... So, they could have easily saved $100 and still have featured the sponsors, in a even better way - with a reasonable build which premium price of about $100 is justified by quality & aesthetics, instead of this totally unreasonable thing that hurts the reputation of LTT (for being unprofessional) and maybe even be quiet! (for being unreasonably expensive).

$1,000 Gaming PC BUILD GUIDE! Not fucking "What I want in my PC guide"

The rx580 is not only pretty much the exact same as the 480, but it wasn't out when he recorded this video. But I totally agree with not a budget friendly build. I mean why spend 100 on a case and 75 on an unnecessary CPU cooler?

It is a build that has a budget of $1000....

Both are cool looking. Both are reusable. Both are very high quality. And in that case you need a good CPU cooler as it is silent but somewhat airflow restricvted from the front. And you spend the extra money because in a 1000 dolars build you don't aim only for fps per dolar, but also for silence, low temprature, good looks, and quality that will last you more than 2 or 3 years.

they will fit in that budget

that i5 will bottleneck the 1070 gpu, go with 6600 or 7600 non k

don't buy that weak ass i5, buy a Ryzen 1600/2600 with a nice B350/B450 motherboard
