the dark bass 700 from be quiet features a tempered glass side panel front panel USB 3.1 type C and a reversible motherboard tray for a complete custom look extensive water cooling support and cable management to make this a great case for your next silent build click the link in the description below for more info what's going on guys welcome back to the channel so it is about 755 a.m. on Black Friday morning for those of you who are unaware Black Friday is the biggest shopping day here in the United States and it's also the day where you can get the best deals on pretty much anything so we've actually made our way over here to Micro Center in Tustin it's just moments before the door is open you can see that the line is already backed up where it were actually parked on the side of the building and the lines already wrapped around Y if you sauce is actually standing in line right now while I sit here in the car because I don't want to get recognized by anyone before I even enter the building and I don't want the whole thing to turn into some kind of fan meet up we're gonna be building a $500 PC that's the budget we're working with we could have gone $800 a thousand bucks but I feel like 500 is really gonna challenge us so we've got a couple things against us right now like Ram pricing GPU pricing but at the same time in his Black Friday so hopefully we can build the best gaming PC we can for a $500 budget the lines moving we got wife and sauce Collins yeah so the first course of action I think is probably to get a CPU I generally start with the C Q and party how to build so in the course it's gonna get really crowded there really quick so let's do that swiftly while the CPUs are already swarmed particularly seems to be high interest in the rise in CPUs which makes a lot of sense given all the price drops lately all right 1500 X here for 160 we've also got horizon 3 1200 400 bucks save 10 bucks I'm gonna go with this we get a quad-core we can overclock it well beyond 3.1 gigahertz and I think at this point I'm gonna have wifey sauce is actually already in line there's the lungs line just for CPU ordering so while she's doing that I'm gonna pick out a be 350 motherboard or an a320 motherboard we have an Asus Prime a 320 mm k 454 dollars $55 that's a pretty good deal actually what's like a micro ATX board it's only got two DIMM slots but yeah that's totally fine one full-size by 16 slot this is literally the cheapest a and 4 board they have here so I think this is our guy I think these are a little bit underpowered for our budget I was thinking the GTX 1050 or a TI depending on what kind of pricing we see we've got 140 bucks 140 bucks for this GTX 950 or I was buying this guy Tim TTI superclocked for 160 but I think this might be our winner here for a GTX 1050 Ti well it's not super clock or anything we can just do some manual overclocking but 145 bucks I just checked online this is about 20 bucks cheaper than Amazon has right now and about 10 $2 cheaper the Newegg so I think tentatively we'll pick this guy out if we have any left over maybe we could go for like a 1063 gig but this this should be a nice pairing for our CPU right this is where we're gonna get killed we've got an 8 gig HyperX fury this is just a single module for 95 bucks or for the same price we can get a 6 another eight gig stick but to buy four gigs so I think dual-channel makes a lot more sense YP sauce is calling me sorry you get it cool so that was for the 1200 right yeah for 100 bucks right so let's let's do the math here really quick this is $95 that's one hundred and ninety five one forty five fifty five three ninety five so we literally have a hundred and five dollars left in our budget 105 105 dollars to get case power supply the CPU comes to the cooler so that's that's good we just need case power supply storage and storage all right I think I think it's gonna be tight but I think we can manage all right case or no what should we do next look honey this is a 400 watt Diablo tech for 15 dollars these are these are actually known to catch fire this isn't lodgest 480 17 bucks 17 bucks this is not quite as bad as Diablo tech but not a huge step up either we probably couldn't afford something like a semi quality and tech power supply because these are going for 35 so that's a no-go what is this logic says 650 watt 25 bucks what 80 plus seriously okay let's let's hold on to this for now so we have like 80 bucks left for a case and storage I did not see any hot enough deals on SSDs to make NAND flash an option for this rig so I did find a one terabyte Toshiba drive for a mechanical drive for 40 bucks that would give us 40 dollars for a case I say we just do it yeah we we finally decided that we needed a cart we have a couple case options here we have a thermal take v 3 Black Edition for 35 bucks this is used of course it's missing like five and a quarter inch cover here but I don't really care about that I just like how the front is all mesh so we'll get some pretty decent airflow even though we have some fairly low powered components in here this is more or less within our budget 44 bucks but it looks pretty closed off is another thermal take case I'm just not so sure about the front panel I don't know where the hell the intake comes from maybe you'd be right there yeah that's that's probably not gonna cut it there's also I was thinking this guy right here but so that's a little over a budget and its mini-itx alright so I ended up going with a thermal take one even though it's got a missing cover here it still seems to be much higher quality than the Coolermaster case it's got a black painted interior where the other one does not it's also got a single included 120 millimeter fan in the back there that I might actually install to the front just to give us a bit more intake and positive air pressure and then at that point I think I think we're good I think we're done let's check out so it actually turns out we had pulled the model piece or the display case which is a no-no so we accept the wait in line right now since they can pull in from the warehouse but that's awesome because I was under the impression that we were just gonna get that case we're actually getting a new one for $35 a new case for 35 bucks cents that's awesome and then I think that still means we have five dollars left over for all the RGB in the world priorities so actually we just got the v3 here it is a friendly staff member brought it out first but also suggested that there was another case that was only five bucks more which is within our budget that is a little bit better so we have $40.00 case here the Thermaltake versa h22 actually has more than one fan in it I think there's like I think he said look fee was like three or four fans in here it looks just about as good in terms of build quality as the other one but look usb3 that that pretty much sold me right there so that really brings our total to exactly five hundred dollars before tax so we I think there it is right there there she is yeah thank you so much sir can you confirm the total once more for us please and that's with or without tax oh yeah charge it alright well that was a lot of fun I enjoyed our little shopping spree there at Micro Center but it was also pretty hectic on Black Friday and also I'm happy to be away from the crowds but we've got all of our Hardware here laid out in front of us this is we're seeing all of it together for the first time so I was just gonna quickly run down each of them just give you a quick refresher on what we came away with and then we can go ahead and start building I'm not gonna do any testing until part two is gonna be a two-part thing forgive me if you guys were expecting performance numbers in this video but at the very least we should be able to put together a pretty nice build for our $500 budget starting with our rising three twelve hundred we got a quad core does not feature SMT so we only got four cores and four threads with a base clock of 3.1 gigahertz we're pairing that with an Asus Prime a 320 MKS micro ATX motherboard a m4 of course on the a320 chipset I've actually never built a system with the a320 chipset before so that's kind of exciting it looks like a pretty decent board I mean it's very basic it's got you know all the things you would need it's got MDOT - looks like it's got a USB 3.1 header on there repairing that with an 8 gigabyte kit of HyperX fury this is actually a 2 module kit so we've got two sticks with four gigs on them each running at 2400 megahertz or mega transfers per second a Lodge assist 650 watt power supply which I initially saw to be a B+ but it's actually 80 plus gold not just I thought it was just like you know weird like the really low-end 80-plus where it doesn't even have a metal attached to it this is actually 80 plus gold so and the fact that we're running a pretty low power system means that we'll definitely have enough juice to drive everything but again let's just hope that it knock on wood just doesn't blow up then we've got a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti from EVGA this is just a regular gaming edition card it's not super clocked or super duper clocked or anything like that but it does have four gigs of gddr5 and it is a pretty nice card for entry-level game this is gonna get our foot in the door to PC gaming for under 500 bucks or under or around $500 and we have a one terabyte Toshiba hard drive I believe it's 7200 rpm it doesn't say anywhere on the actual package maybe it says on the drive so it doesn't actually list the RPM anywhere on the hard drive either so I would assume and definitely hope that it is 7200 rpm and if there was one regret of this entire build it's that we just didn't have the budget to get an SSD in here so we are gonna be suffering from some slower boot times and load times and things like that but it's certainly something that's easy to upgrade later down the line and at the very least we can get the system up and running just fine and finally we've got this thermal take versa h22 plus mid tower case it is very entry-level I've actually never worked with this case in particular before so I'm very curious to see what we'd get out of it for the 40 bucks we paid but those are all the parts guys I'll link everything in the description below in case you want to find out more or you know links to buy and stuff like that but I think we're ready to start building so let's go ahead and piece this together all right guys system is complete I went pretty smoothly actually I should mention that this case comes included with four case fans that's pretty impressive for a $40.00 case and they're fairly quiet I mean mind you I actually had to pipe two of them into a couple molex to two pin adapters straight from the power supply because we only had two fan headers on our motherboard including the CPU fan header but all things considered it's fairly quiet it's not too intrusive and you can definitely feel like quite a bit of air moving moving through the case which is nice cable management in this case actually wasn't as bad as I thought I mean obviously you don't have a power supply shroud or fancy rubber grommets you can't really expect to have those things with a $40.00 chassis but that being said you do have ample room behind the motherboard tray it's about half an inch which doesn't sound like a lot but it's actually plenty considering the type of hardware that you would be putting inside of a case like this so that is to say that I was actually able to get all the cables out and away from this main compartment area the main chamber so that we just have unimpeded air flow going through our case you might see the power supplies a little scuffed up that's because I actually had to remove or I didn't have to but I decided to remove the ugly sticker that was on here I didn't film that and think it was that important but in the process I kind of scuffed up the power supply trust me when I say that it looks better scuffed up like this than it did out of the box on a final note we didn't really have the budget to make this system look as pretty as it could possibly be you do get a blue LED fan at the front which I was unaware of so I guess that's our sorry excuse for bling for today's build but that is pretty much its overall lovely build a lovely foot-in-the-door for PC gaming and for less than $500 mind you or I guess more than $500 if you consider tax in the state of California but wait for part 2 part 2 I'm gonna be testing this guy we're gonna be doing some overclocking will be checking out benchmarks and taking a closer look at thermal and acoustic should be fun so guys thank you so much for tuning in hope you guys had a good Black Friday can decide to shop whether online or in-store hopefully we're able to take advantage of some killer deals let me know what you got if anything for Black
