The $270 'Buy It Now' APEX LEGENDS GAMING PC

2019-02-09
apex Legends is a new free-to-play battle royale game that's been released on the EA origins platform and the minimum specs required that you need an i3 6300 or an FX 4350 for the CPU six gigabytes of RAM and also a GT 640 or a HD 7770 this game on a budget but today we're more or less gonna try and go for those recommended specs to get a better gaming experience which state that you need an i5 35 70 K which is a four core four threaded processor a gigabytes of RAM and also a gtx 970 or an i-9 290 so guys what are we waiting for let's put this PC together so here's what I've got so far for this build now the good thing is about today's video is I've put together a list for you guys if you don't want to go out and look for deals like I've done here on these parts I've got a list where I'll put the links in the description below where you can buy it now on a lot of these parts and still get really good deals but first off here rx 570 I got this for around 50 US dollars 70 Australian dollars and it's such a good deal is priced as a 4 gigabyte version on eBay at the moment you can currently get this for 90 US dollars free shipping in the US for the 8 gigabyte version absolute bargain and then we've got the CPU here which is the ex 34 40 this is for cos 8 threads and it's overclockable you can pick these up for 18 US dollars of Aliexpress and then for the cooler I got this thrown in with the deal when I was in the USA but apparently word on the street is the new meta for CPU coolers is the vowel on aliexpress for 13 US dollars which would do a fine job of overclocking this CPU now for memory forgot here 8 gigabytes of ddr3 memory I picked this up on a deal when I was on the road challenging Christopher Yi in the United States and then for the SSD they're so cheap at the moment 20 US dollars for a brand new SSD that's going to make our system so far so responsive when it comes to loading up games and just using Windows and then we've got the pals play I got this thrown in with a deal but currently you can get a power supply for around about 30 US dollars brand-new so if you don't like risking it with use power supplies and go with the new option but I've always dealt with these use power supplies and they don't present any problems to me usually fingers crossed anyway guys I've still got to pick up a motherboard which in this case we need an H 55 motherboard I'm getting one on a deal for 40 ozzie dollars which is about 28 USD but if you can't wait and you've got to buy one now you can currently get them for around $49 shipped so there's a little bit expensive for the motherboard that everything else on this build is so cheap that this motherboard really makes this build worth it and then we've got last of all the case I've found one for 10 Aussie dollars this is an old-school case and I actually need one with the power supply mounted up the top because our power supply itself has short cable runs but ever guys let's go pick up the rest of the pots and make one epic budget gaming PC but before we do go get these deals if you want a website hosted for as little as seventeen US dollars a year or a dollar forty five a month then today's video sponsor hosting is bringing you just that with over 99.9% uptime included emails and an easy website builder you can have something so cheap up and running in no time for your business whether you're a young getting into the game or whether you've got a sole trader business and you just need something that's informational out there on the web hosting have you covered it's that good that I've recently ported my whole tech yes City website over to this service because it's so competitive you also on the cloud hosting services get a dedicated machine and a free domain registration included if you sign up for one year and what makes it even better is if you're a tech yes City viewer they're throwing in 15% off these already really good prices what are you waiting for links in description below but let's get back to those deals so we just got back to the tackiest studio picked up the motherboard and while I was there the person's name was Nick he also showed me a 7950 which I picked up as well for an additional 40 Ozzie dollars so that's a pretty good deal considering I need it for the legacy BIOS which I believe it has as opposed to a UEFI bias and then another lovely viewer donated this to the channel some thermal grisly hydronaut for an upcoming comparison with all different thermal paste but here we are here with the main prize we picked up the case and I gotta say not bad for a banger like it looks pretty good it's all ready to rock and roll but these parts even though I've got all the gear we've got to give it now summat Tyl and that is tech yes lovin that's where I get some brake clean a multi-purpose spray and the data vac hose it all down clean it all up and make it look brand new so some really bad news but I got this motherboard in and had a tissue over it now I've actually never seen a tissue over a socket cover before so I didn't really expect it to be damaged but then I took the tissue off and all the pins were just munted so Nick please never do this to a motherboard again because Nick said it was working I took his word for it and I'm guessing he put the tissue in afterwards and then closed off the socket and then didn't really look at it ever again so I've tried bending all the pins back they do look pretty decent but again with that many bent pins all's you need is a few little micro bends in the wrong spots and the system won't boot or at least the CPU won't be recognized properly so there's only one thing left to do with this board and that's just give it some tacky ass lovin so even after hearin some Tyl and just trying to have a closer look this is where the problem is here the top pin is sort of like missing its head and then the one below its is completely gone so that board is officially not with us anymore I'm gonna have to actually get a refund at Old Nick and he was like oh damn my bad I'll give you a refund so that's okay it's just it's a lot of time wasted but there is still one way we can save this budget build and that is to call up the one the only the king of the coasts let's go check out what he's got for us so hallelujah this build is finally working but the problem here is is that this case is well it's so rusty inside and that fan is just like on its way out it's really noisy so I kind of blame myself I should have opened this case up when I went to buy it and check inside and just refused it because this is like two pots now that I should have checked and there the two pots that I picked up today and they're just not up to par in my opinion like they're not even worth the money I paid like definitely for the motherboard that doesn't even work and then for the case like I don't even know if that's worth ten bucks but anywhere all that aside let's get some beauty roll of this thing overclock it and then finally start installing apex Legends so we've just finished up doing the benchmarks on Apex legends and the results are really good with medium and low settings 1080p we're getting over a hundred average fps and the one percent in point one percent lows are really good if we want to step it up to high settings with the RX 570 and this four core CPU we're getting still over 60 average FPS which is really good we've played some other games as well Resident Evil 2 we're getting over 90 average fps and then shadows of the Tomb Raider in the benchmark we got over 50 FPS on high settings so basically this little Z on here the x34 40 it's no joke it's a really good CPU even in 2019 playing some of the latest titles and getting some really good fps now in all of today's titles the CPU wasn't going a hundred percent either which means it we're still GPU bound by the RX 570 so that's really good news I'm actually shocked at how well this CPU does if you guys want to know how to overclock the CPU then it's super easy I've made a whole tutorial dedicated to this motherboard and CPU combo I'll put the link up here for you guys what all you have to do is change a few settings put a good cooler on it and then you shall have some great speeds great fps and more importantly amazing price performance so there it is guys this PC behind me is just geared up to play 1080p games even in 2019 with the latest titles if you want to play csgo dota 2 league of Legends and this thing will just easily do so well in those titles but anyway guys if you enjoyed today's video then you know to do hit that like button let us know in the comment section below what you think of apex legends have you played it yet I know my gameplay was pretty bad I mainly just testing out the parts and seeing the performance of this particular rig and this combination of PC parts but other than that it did really well I look forward to playing this game it's actually quite enjoyable and it's free to play as well Souls you need to do is go get the PC parts install windows and in this case I was pretty lucky the motherboard I got off king of the coast that had a Windows 10 Pro activated license already installed on that motherboard but no guys if you enjoy the content you want to see more of it make sure you hit the sub button with the little bell on
