[XsAviR]

now this pc is cost 500$ :)

[XsAviR]

I think Pentium G850 is would be better than this Athlon.

[MTReview]

@XsAviR You're right, but it's also a bit more expensive. I will put a G850 in the next version (or an even better CPU)

[CreeperSlayerCraft]

@MTReview what's the FPS of minecraft when this is recording?

[fbmalte]

[dorito132v]

do you need two RAM cards or just the one? please respond

[mrgeo20]

hard drives are so damn expensive now... damn taiwan and it's flooding... haha

[noobkilla813]

Personally i prefer intel builds but thats just cus ive never seen ot tested against intel to see the better. And seriously TheMariear guy i know i spelled your name wrong but shut up! Knowbody cares abbout more exspensive parts when they searched this video for a budget build of under $400! If we search for this video odds are we dont have $3000 to spend!

[iEviLxHD]

is that with or without tax

[MochaChrona]

@iEviLxHD Without tax. Ordering it online will cost no tax. However, there is shipping and handling.

[silorakops]

Until western digital factories got flooded KNOW MAH HARD DRIVES 100 BUCKS ((o))---((o))

[TheMadeira2010]

I show u my some my rig but not yet finish

[ps3gamer107]

Please reply. i was wondering with this computer would it be possible to record minecraft if not what would i need?

[MTReview]

@ps3gamer107 It should be possible, but I would get 8GB of RAM (Minecraft uses a LOT of RAM)

[CreeperSlayerCraft]

@MTReview Can you pm me the link for the 8gb ram?

[TheMadeira2010]

i going build my new pc rig, i spend 2.5 to 3k so i will show u my video how to build and show you what i have and test of power for gaming and other etc. i know well about computer for about 7 year or more so.

[MTReview]

@TheMadeira2010 good for you..?

[TheMadeira2010]

too low! get i7 3960x or 2k or AMD hight and AMD graphics card hight 6970 or 6990 puls SSD etc fps will be double but if i7 3960x deep powerful and hight ram 8x4Gb = 32Gb 2133mhz, MSI new for i7 and SSD 120Gb or 240Gb, power supply 1,250W , HD 6970 x2 = 4GB, water cooling system cpu i7 and ram cool fan x2 and case : nzxt phanton white case.

[classyaddy]

would you not need a heatsink?

[skaterdude1998]

i just put everything in cart u had in this video and its 476$

[TheBlackopsification]

PLEASE REPLY!!! IS THIS GOOD FOR A GAMING DESKTOP TO PLAY GAMES LIKE SKYRIM? MOTHERBOARD MSI 970A-G45 AMD 9 Series AM3+ CPU AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition RAM Crucial Ballistix 4GB DDR3 (1333MHz) VIDEO CARD EVGA GeForce GTX 550 Ti HARD DRIVE Hitachi 500 GB OPTICAL DRIVE Lite-On Internal 24x CD/DVD Drive CASE Cooler Master Elite 430 Mid Tower POWER SUPPLY Cooler Master eXtreme 500 Watt Total Cost: $565

[MTReview]

@TheBlackopsification Decent, but it could be better. I think you can play skyrim on high-medium settings with decent fps with this configuration

[TheBlackopsification]

@MTReview :) thanks for replying quick :)

Im happy with this as long as it gets above 25fps on low settings !

[MTReview]

@TheBlackopsification Oh it will be around 30-40 fps on medium/(maybe) high settings. If you can you should go for a AMD 6850. With that card you get more for the money

[TheBlackopsification]

@MTReview Too pricey for me, but thanks anyways :)

Just checking if i got the price right is it 240 dollars?

[Preda1994]

@MTReview I'm just wondering, Would this PC be able to run Skyrim, Oblivion and Fallout New Vegas with the AMD 6750 or should pay an extra $20 for an MSI AMD Radeon HD 6770?

[skaterdude1998]

@Preda1994 pay an extra 20$ if u have it because your gpu will last u longer or if u have low ram go with the 6750 and just buy a 4bg ram stick for 20$

[Preda1994]

@skaterdude1998 Thanks bro. :)

[TheMadeira2010]

need bit more power if cpu low mean not good for speed game if you look at good game then cpu good speed n power aslo GHz and Graphics should be 2GB 940Mhz that will be fine if want 2x then use crossfire. lever everythings about 5.0 or 6.5 .

[TheMadeira2010]

if hight like i7 3960x lever max!

[FirstDragonSlayer]

@TheMadeira2010

that is a budget PC,not a PC with a 1000$ cpu.

[Hiderfriend]

Trruth to be said you dont need a dvd burner

[xISiLLeNTIx]

Hmm would this run Bf3 at medium sets ?

[XcrazyX10]

@xISiLLeNTIx Would run it at med with a low ressolution at 40fps.

[buzz9961]

@xISiLLeNTIx i think its will run on high.settings with this video card

[10neShotKill]

ok i have everything the same except ram which doesn't really matter but would sapphire radeon hd 6570 pci express 2.1 be OK for the motherboard as far as compatibility

[BoundariesGaming]

the seagate barracuda is $112 on newegg

[davidda1000]

AC:Revelations song : AWESOME Choice!

[iownudie108]

now the hdd will cost around 80$

[farisjoomun]

the 6790 is now £98.00 from ebuyer

[The24hGamer]

is this a good deal ?

AMD phantom QUAD @3.3

8gb RAM

Nvidia GTX 550 ti 2GB

for 430€

[MTReview]

@The24hGamer No not at all. I could get these parts for around € 250.

- Mark

[409346]

@MTReview they change hardrive massively now it cost  70 bucks for 500gb

[MTReview]

@409346 Where I live they ask about € 80, but i'm not going to edit and reupload the video just because something has gone up in price.

[helloimclaudio]

@409346 Hard Drive prices went up due to the floodings in thailan, that's where a lot of the hard drive companies are located, prices should be going back down in late december, early january, hopefully.

[UsemyTipz]

@MTReview Can you please tell me where you get your parts cheap?

[MTReview]

@UsemyTipz newegg.com

[dakkeltibuto4466]

@The24hGamer Where did you buy the seagate barracuda 500GB 7200RPM HDD?

[buzz9961]

@The24hGamer if you get this computer dont buy gtx 550 ti buy the hd 6850 its way faster

[randomness711]

then drop another 100 for windows....

[MTReview]

@randomness711 thepiratebay ...............

[randomness711]

@MTReview how the fuck do you pirate windows 7 and port it onto a blank hard drive

[MTReview]

@randomness711 You don't know anyone or where you can have acces to a windows pc ????..

[randomness711]

@MTReview i do my question is how the fuck do you get your HD/MB to recognize the software on your flashdrive as windows 7?

[MTReview]

@randomness711 You change the boot priority in the BIOS to 1. USB 2. DVD/CD 3. HDD

[JeemOfRunescape]

@MTReview only poor ppl download windows..

[MTReview]

@JeemOfRunescape or smart people who do not want to pay for a overpriced OS

[JeemOfRunescape]

@MTReview smart people realise that TPB version is corrupted like fuck and realise that its just much simpler to buy it, but not all of us are black cocaine addicted assholes -.-

[falloutseriesftw]

@MTReview Can this run bf3 and crysis 2 on high or max settings?

[MTReview]

@falloutseriesftw at 1920x1080 no, not on High, but possibly at 1600x900 with decent FPS

[falloutseriesftw]

@MTReview For 400?!?!? Then why do people spend 3k on a monster computer?

[MTReview]

@falloutseriesftw To play maxed out on 3 screens at a resolution of 5760x1080, better cooling (possibly wc), SSD's and far better storage, More RAM for other programs, better CPU for video editing, and just to say they have a $ 3000 pc. Next week i´m going to build a € 2600 rig for a client of me ( = $3630) with 2600K 2 GTX 580 ( 3GB ), 16 GB ram, 256 GB SSD, etc. Those pc are also future proof and can still play all games over 3 years.

- Mark

[falloutseriesftw]

@MTReview But what if you are a guy like me. I'm on a tight budget, probably going to play on just 1 17-19 inch screen, and I just want to play the newest games on high to ultra graphics and escape the dictators known as microsoft that run xbox live.

[biogamer100]

@falloutseriesftw You'll be fine with something like this. People think you need a quad core to do gaming but you can use a dual core perfectly with a decent video card. This will get you to play BF3 on 1080p at a 60-70FPS. Happy gaming.

[expertnoobFTW]

Not at medium settings. My core 2 duo at 2.0 ghz and ati mobility (notice how I said mobility as in it's a laptop card underclocked by the makers to give less power usage.) radeon 4570 (btw this card sucks) got a steady 20 fps at medium in crysis. This should run it maxed out very well or at least decently.

[MTReview]

@expertnoobFTW Sure, but let me ask you this, what settings were you using as in resolution details?. Because i talk about full hd and high/medium details for a minium of 40 fps playable. That is a difference from everything low/medium and details off at 1366x768

[AK74UFU2]

awsome song assassins creed man all the way thums up if you put on the song for that.

[twinkiesgonebad1]

what can this play crysis 1 on and the fps

[MTReview]

@twinkiesgonebad1 It will be able to play crysis with a decent fps on medium settings. 

[cp0020]

oh my god! i saw either a movie or a tv show with this song in it and now i cant think of it... damnit!

[MTReview]

@cp0020 Assassins Creed: Revelations E3 Trailer ??? /watch?v=Wo6Q14vBB1c

[cp0020]

@MTReview well i feel stupid! i literally just got done playing the beta too lolol thanks man :) i was going insane trying to find out

[blaqhawq47]

I have that psu and it hasn't let me down , 6 mos of hard use so far

[markonino]

@blaqhawq47 Corsair is a good psu brand

[gojacketa26]

I instantly thought of Tobuscus!

[MTReview]

@gojacketa26 Cape-Clad Bald Guy Sentences Ezio to Die!

[gojacketa26]

@MTReview Yeah! *Gives high five*

[mrlogan1144]

Haha I lied I accidentally -120$ off the built and now need 320$, you should upload a video about the pc you have, and how it games.

[MTReview]

@mrlogan1144 Currently i only have laptop ( so also can use it for school ). I am saving for a pc, but i just got fired D: and i need a new ps3 and i am planning to buy a lot of games this holiday season. I proably going to wait for AMD 6000/ Nvidia 600 and Ivy Bridge. My laptop is a ASUS K73SV-TY080V

[mrlogan1144]

@MTREVIEW Okay, thx for helping people like me out. I got this one for around 350$ but I upgraded a lot of the parts, like the power supply and graphic card. Thabks

[mrlogan1144]

@mtreview hey great build, could you put up a video of it in action?

[MTReview]

@mrlogan1144 It's just a vid to help out people choosing pc parts. If you check my channel you will see i've got a lot of different building lists

[BEEPBEEPVRROOMVRROOM]

[MTReview]

@BEEPBEEPVRROOMVRROOM  thank you!
