Putting together a cheap, repeatable £250 PC build that can match or beat an XBOX Series S for about the same price, then testing it in a series of recent and popular games in 2023.

Yes, I’m back again, on my Console Killer soapbox once more. I believe that it should always be possible to get a console-like gaming experience on PC without spending over the odds, but the last few years of shortages and price hikes has made that next to impossible. Now that status quo finally seems to be ending, and thanks to the availability of ex-mining RTX GPUs and old high-end workstations for incredibly reasonable prices, it’s possible to put together a real XBOX Series S Killer for the cost of a Series S itself, if not even less. In this video, I upgrade a cheap Lenovo P500 workstation into an 8 core beast with all-flash storage and a ray tracing-enabled GPU... for about £250!
