get a ps5 or save a little more and get a prebuilt off of newegg,

>>723122773
>they didn't even bother with rx580 which is dirt cheap refurbished by some chink brand
christ

Just go to any PC shop online, buy your parts and pay the $50-100 fee for them to build it, better value than the pre built and you get a warranty on the build. If you don't build yourself that's the next best option.

>>723123225
>>723123295

Fuck ok Im glad I came to v before buying it. I could upgrade to maybe $100 more. Or at that point ill just build my own.

>>723123321
Slit your wrists. Im not a fucking retard. I can easily build my own PC. Im just looking at different PCs to see stuff I should buy.

There is a micro center nearby where I live, what are the best parts to get to build a pc for the first time? I’ve also read they can build the pc for you for a small fee. What are some mistakes I should avoid for picking what’s best? The only gpu I know is that 5090 which I think has meme status as other gpus can do the same for less

>>723123538
Alright sounds good. I will probably just build my own then. Thank you

>>723123569
Well you clearly are a retard. Probably buy a pre-built but you're obviously too cheap to buy a good one since you're on Temu.
Get a console like the other anon said, retard.

>>723122773
For the record since you aren't getting serious replies you won't be able to run a single PS5 era game. Borderlands 4 won't even boot up without 8 cores on your PC.

>>723123569
>I can easily build my own PC
>Im just looking at different PCs to see stuff I should buy.
that's what building a PC is
you are confusing assembly with building, because you clearly cannot build a PC or you wouldn't be asking.

>>723122773
let me guess, you need more

>>723123751
Kill yourself. I have an xbox already, I just want a PC. I got the advice I needed, Im just going to hide this thread because now its being filled with obese neckbeard faggots who just want to scream
>LOL JUST PLAY CONSOLE YOURE OBVIOUSLY TOO DUMB TO BE A PC GAMER LIKE US. The next time you reply to this thread I will be gone so I dont have to read your retardation. You will be screaming into space. So keep sperging out and bumping a thread I hid. Sad faggot. Youre on 4chan alone on a sunday night. I know why you act like this, because you dont have a girlfriend. I would pity you if you werent such an obnoxious faggot. Hopefully you find someone who can teach you not to be a miserable piece of shit.

>>723123578
A bunch of different brands make different parts, but by and large, you'll want the following combination:
>case by NZXT
>power supply by Gigabyte
>motherboard from Asus
Micro Center often gives away free SSDs to first-time shoppers. That's where you'll want to install your operating system.

>Burgerlands 4

You're dumb!

>>723122731
That was a phone powerbank tho

>>723123756
pretty much this if you have the cash upfront
its also perfectly fine to swap the x3d for a standard 9700x or 9900x as they are so much cheaper and clock way higher than the x3d models which are hard limited on power.

>>723122773
Anon those are the specs of a $100 PC, just buy a used Thinkcentre S30 or Thinkcentre M91p and upgrade from there.

>>723122773

The power plug will not be American or European electricity friendly once you get the PC, hence the fire.

Is this one better? It's 40 bucks more.

>>723123954

Don't listen to them, OP, get it.

>>723126389
You can get a way better PC for even the same money.

Many such cases!

>>723122246 (OP)
buy that and later complain on /v/ how it doesn't work, making the conclusion that pc gaming is shit and console is better

>>723122773
Believe it or not, this will play Armored Core 6 at a stable 30fps at 720p. But please don't buy this. You could build it yourself for like $80 using an old Optiplex from eBay.

>>723122773
>graphics: yes

>>723122773
just buy an xbox at this point

>>723122246 (OP)
Here OP, since you said you're capable of building your own PC.
>$120 Aliexpress CPU + Mobo + Ram Combo with a Ryzen 5 3600 and 16gb of ram
>$140 AMD Radeon RX 6600
>$50 Thermaltake Smart PSU
>$40 Zalman case
>$50 Timetec 1 TB M.2 SSD
Total: $400

Found those prices and parts a couple months ago, so it's probably a little different now for maybe better or worse, but this will get you a 500x better PC for close to the same amount of money.

>>723122246 (OP)
>Any advice beforehand?
Yeah, kys.

>>723122246 (OP)
Anon if you still here get an X99 from ALIEXPRESS with a xeon e5-2667 or a x370 with an intel qqls.
>>723126824
Pretty shitty config.
You can get the equivalent of an i9-9900k for 50 bucks on aliexpress
and since the qqls has an igpu he can buy and flash the Radeon VII bios and get 4060 performance with 16gb with 100 bucks

>>723122246 (OP)
Seems bad, lol. Just buy a pre built from a local shop, they’re usually upgradeable too

>>723122773
hahahahahHah

>>723127770
All pcs are "upgradeable", what the fuck are you talking about?

>>723127557
After looking up a quick benchmark, those Xeons perform basically the same or slightly worse than the Ryzen 3600 and I'd also say the Ryzen is better since you could upgrade to a 5800X3D or something if you wanted, while the Xeon would basically be a dead end.
>qqls has an igpu he can buy and flash the Radeon VII bios and get 4060 performance with 16gb with 100 bucks
I highly doubt this.

>>723128013
Also, the Ryzen would probably be better for games since it's a super common consumer CPU and not a relatively uncommon repurposed server/workstation CPU thus better optimized.

anon if i were you i would save up and get a nintendo switch 2 instead

>>723128158
>*steam deck/other similar handheld PC
ftfy

>>723128287
steam deck is shit but it probably can be plugged into a monitor and push out better power than ops pic
the switch 2 is a kino machine though

>>723122246 (OP)
If you can't afford a PC, buy a console. That's what they exist for. Unless you want to play old games and indies, I guess.

>>723128365
>the switch 2 is a kino machine though
kys tendie cuck

>>723128392
PCs are always better for poorfags since you have access to millions of piratable games and you don't have to pay for retarded subscriptions to play online.

This "gaming" PC is a perfect representation of china as a whole
Shitty, cheap but overpriced slop that hides behind LED lights and secret slave labor and probably has a bitcoin miner and keylogger built in to screw you over even more

Only retards and ignorant people think this is a good choice and it will always end in regret

>>723123569
>>723122246 (OP)
1. Don't buy shit from China.
2. 500 bucks / euros gets you a fine used PC or parts necessary to BUILD one.

I just upgraded my Windows 7 era wormbox to Asus B550-Pro mobo + Ryzen 5 5600X + 32GB DDR4 + RTX 3060 12GB, for mere 550 €, late last year.

Runs anything BUT the Unreal 5 slop silky smooth 60fps at native 1200p, and has great upgrade choices when needed.

>>723122773
Might as well use a Steam Deck as desktop PC at that point...

>>723122773
A bit overpriced for that spec. You can play most games (especially old games) easily.

Try Facebook marketplace or Craigslist

>>723140093
It is not playing anything released after 2013

>>723122246 (OP)
buying parts individually is much cheaper but if youre lazy just look in facebook marketplace
theres tons of people (well in my area) quitting gaming and selling their rig for cheap because they want to get married or something.

>>723128365
>the switch 2 is a kino machine though
That's right, best used as a movie machine because it's shit for games.

>>723123569
>Im not a fucking retard
You entertained the thought of buying a "gaming" PC from fucking Temu. You absolutly are retarded.

>>723122635
The case alone probably costs 30$ by itself and they have to pay 30% fees to temu, so you're really no too far from it.
Plus, the lgbt fans are probably 20 to 30$ more knowing they'll use the cheapest shit out there.

>I'm not a retard

What did he mean by this?

>>723122773
for the future: "intel core i5" doesnt mean anything. merchants use the i numbers to deceive people. "oh my cousins pc has an i5 and he plays the newest games so it must be good". no. i5 is a broad spectrum, some i5s will be equal to a PS2 processor and some I5s could compete with a PS4. when a PC's description just says "intel i5" without specifying what model it is you can guarantee it's some kind of $20 processor from a landfill

>pay the $50-100 fee for them to build it
>you get a warranty on the build
Sure bud

>Motherboard has been acting weird lately
>Will shut down during start up and forced to reboot it if its been with out electricity for awhile

Should i be worried?

>>723141613
To add onto this Anon's explanation, i5 is just a category of CPU intel uses. What's important is the generation, which can range from like third generation to 14th generation.

>>723142437
What brand of mobo?

Just get a ryzen mini pc at this point it will out perform that shitbox at the same price point or less

>>723142479
Asus

>>723142563
You can get a pretty high end cpu + motherboard combo on aliexpress, get a ryzen nas motherboard, all you need is ram a psu and a case, you can save up for a gpu after that, that's what I'd do, benefit of this build it can all fit in an sff case

>>723122773
Ha Ha Holy shit that wasnt worth 400 dollars when it was new

Its a 12 year old mid to low spec cpu(i5-4590) matched with an 8 year old low spec gpu(RX 550) built on refurbished parts obviously because this shit has been sold new for a looooong time

Whats even more hilarious is they have it listed for 479 Dollars

>>723122773
go to e-bay e get yourself a refurbished minipc workstation. It's probably going to run games better than that garbage and cost you less, no Win11 though

>>723122246 (OP)
anyone recommends a descent minipc+ portable screen for less than $400? I sometimes travel for work and don't want to get a laptop because fuck that

>>723141783
I'm not sure it's good advice.

You need to turn it down a bit, so you can play them. Steamdeck can play almost all games.

If you need a new pc Im going to plug https://inside-tech.co.uk/ because they gave me better specs than I even ordered. Very well built and good coms, warranty, repairs etc.

>>723142437
How do you know it's Mobo and not PSU or memory?

So you want a laptop, but one that can't be used without an outlet and a desk?

>RX550
Jesus tapdancing christ, not only that was already low spec when it came out, it's 10 years old by this point, even a current day laptop igpu shits so much on that card

>>723143956
Because it all works fine after the start up so it cant be a PSU or memory problem.

>>723144164
>the machine spirit requires a sacrifice in blood to work
I am starting to legitimately believe that this is real. When I built my PC, it refused to boot while I tried installing and reinstalling the parts and shifting RAM sticks until I cut my finger and shifted the RAM stick one last time, and then suddenly everything worked. Now, the same shit happened again, with the computer refusing to boot until I cut my finger and shifted the RAM for the thousandth time.

Should i get a gaming laptop if i cant be bothered to build my own pc?

>>723140325
lol retard, it will run anything not on UE5

>>723144696
If you have a need to play while moving around. Otherwise, just buy a prebuilt desktop.

>>723144696
Only if you've got the money to buy a new one every 2 years.

>>723144696
no such thing as a gaming laptop

>>723122246 (OP)
if youre not willing to put in the effort to learn about PCs then just stick to consoles. you are just going to keep getting robbed like you were/are about to with that garbage

I can excuse someone for being poor. What I can't excuse is being poor and stupid.

>>723144696
>gaming laptop
No.
They're almost universally shit.
Unless you have a real need to move your gaming PC around a lot, don't do it.

Outside of a prebuilt or just building your own though there is another laptop option-
Buy a decent business laptop in the screen size you want then add an eGPU.
You can upgrade GPUs later and CPU isn't nearly as important to upgrade (also the cooling on a business laptop will deal with a CPU alone at 100% anyway)

>>723144696
is there a microcenter you can get to? because if you can get to one they have in store bundles that will give you a beast for a bargain. you could even pay them to build it for you and it will be much cheaper than a prebuilt online

Probably better to get something second hand off ebay.

Play through the best of the 90's to now. Then pass it on and upgrade, or use what it can do to make stuff.
The lights there are in bad taste.

Also better to get something portable. You can't rely on your situation staying stable. The less you can't leave behind the more you can move.
Should have free storage, so nobody bins what they love. But govt is nigger kike cancer cunt runt student faggot shit.

>>723144014
minipcs are usually slightly more powerful for the money spent and have better cooling since they aren't shackled by power efficiency, not to mention you don't need to worry about a two year lifespan because of the battery. The only thing modern laptops are good for is producing e-waste.

>>723123569
If you want a cheap+easy option
Look for a second hand dell PC with an 8th gen or newer intel processor. Theyre cheap as fuck with window 10 support ending. slap in an intel arc a350 or rtx 3050 (low profile if its a mini case) which both dont need extra power connectors.

It'll be much better than that prebuilt and around the same price. For the minimal effort of just plugging in a gpu.

I seriously hope you are a teenager. If you are this poor in your 20's sprint to the closest trade school and beg for them to take you in, because whatever the fuck you are doing in your life right now is a dead end.

>>723122246 (OP)
If you aren't willing to spend around $800 USD for a gaming PC, don't get one.

There is literally nothing you can buy from Team you that is worth the money or frustration they cause when you find out you cannot return anything without a fee. You will get the wrong product or it will be damaged. Either way you will receive trash and there will be nothing you can do about it because that's the point of temu.

Thoughts on this craptop for ~650 bucks?

find hte motherboard manual and find the connector guide and find where they put the fan pins
or
just look at the board and find the pins that say something akin to "fan1" etc
other than having only 1-3 sets of fan pins the other limiting factor of adding in a new fan would be if the case doesnt have any proper mounting spots
