today we're booting a PC that can play csgo dota to a really high frame rates not just for competitive gamers but can also play some of the later titles of course GTA 5 and mafia 3 as well very playable on this rig so let's take a look at what we've got welcome back to tech city and this month PC is one that's been put together with all use parts so we're not doing that news meets you or anything like that this month is a special one and it's also very special because man I had a heap of different problems this month from the memory to the motherboard to the CPU to the GPU and I just got there in the end but as we go along we'll talk about some of the problems with with that said let's take a look at all the prices of the components then we'll do the build and then the benchmarks you so usually when I do my PC builds I make sure that all the components are usually working off camera but this actual piece of hardware the all the combination here had so many problems first of all the motherboard the actual two out of memory slots won't work at all with any memory in them even if the memory modules are perfectly working so the motherboard had a problem to begin with and then I actually had three different memory modules here from the swap that didn't work at all either so these three are bricked memory modules so essentially at the moment I've got two different eight gigabyte memory modules in tandem and I mean I just hopefully I can get the best out of all this so we've got memory problems and motherboard problems but in the end this whole thing is still working the graphics card boots up the motherboards working with the CPU so now we can put together the build all the things that have changed me internally Hill so that we have a guys all those games in those benchmarks are running a really good frame rate of 1080p high which is where I like to have my settings generally even at any resolution high gives you that really good frame rate for the performance however I did notice mafia 3 ran terribly I had to drop that down to low settings and then we got around 60 fps in that game though I will say that game runs like pretty much off on any configuration that I know of at least speaking to everyone else in the TAC scene they say that this game is extremely hard to run so mafia 3 kind of an outlier there but this machine man have managed to go up to 4.8 gigahertz even though I did have to turn it down after the benchmarks just because it's really not a healthy overclock to be running 24/7 the graphics card that managed to get up to one point one gigahertz however at this 290x is so damn hot I was really surprised at how hot this thing is I mean the even the Excel or that I put on there was starting to cap out and I've never seen a graphics card cap out in Excel or cooler this thing's got three fans on it the fan speeds were ramped up and this thing's still making the temperatures rise so I could only imagine how much the thermal throttling would happen on the stock cooler which is really the same cooler as a 7970 cooler and the 290 X's just has a massive die on there and it puts out a lot more power than a 79 70 so you guys might be wondering a little bit more about those problems that we had on the way I mean the memory man that just didn't work some of those sticks that I got traded actually the majority of those sticks didn't work I only managed to find two sticks in the end that did work and put them together on a motherboard which had two dead DIMM slots and for the CPU anything other than the stock settings were just thermal throttling which I was really surprised with I managed to get it up to four point five gigahertz but then it was thermal throttling and then my D lead kit that was worn out like I've actually got to put in a dispute for that because the things broken after two D lids and I can't even use it anymore so I quickly went down my hardware store just said hey can I take a look at your vices and test them out and they said sure so I quickly deleted the CPU down a warehouse which was pretty cool it did do the job and then we got that working the temperatures were phenomenally low on the CPU after I deal it at the same four point five gigahertz I believe the temperatures dropped a good 40 degrees which is incredible so if you guys haven't deal with it already then some of these CPUs I highly recommend deleting them if you want to overclock and then moving on with the problems list the cables didn't extend far enough from the power supply so I decided to throw in some extensions I had lying around I've had these for actually quite some time they're not as good as the game of chief extensions and so I decided to use them and spice up the build in the process but anyway in the end everything just worked out I mean if it didn't I would be a lot more angrier so we do have a build that works even though the motherboard and the memory a lot of that memory didn't work so I was really surprised but we got there in the end and we now have a build that plays games really damn well which I'm glad I'm proud of but with that said it was a long time and it was a very tedious process so I hope you guys enjoyed this one if you have any questions or comments and be sure to drop a comment the comment section below about this rig I don't even know what to call it I might be thinking of a name for it maybe the scraper by era yes I don't know something crazy but let me know in the comment section below and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye
