Building A Killer AMD $700 Gaming System

2019-04-18
another day means more tech here on tech tomorrow so let's jump right into it today we're gonna bring you guys a system build which is pretty much just a lot of parts that we have gotten in for review from different companies and we've put all these parts together and we're bringing this bill to the table now I want to clarify this is a suggested build we weren't going for the absolute cheapest in price or anything else we're taking the parts that we have from all the different companies we're putting together there and making a system with them now this particular system is a mid-level system it's coming to market about $700 and to really I think still well balanced system for the price for $700 there's actually quite a bit of gas under the hood now starting off we have a case by the company in gam Deus I'm not sure exactly how it's pronounced to think it's game to yes if I'm saying it wrong hey excuse me like I'm willing to be corrected at any time whatsoever now these guys provided their talos t1 case and they also provided a power supply as well now the case is very very nice has a lot of RGB features you guys can see it's actually a really nice looking case there's a lot of room in the interior for storing all of your stuff there's plenty of room for aftermarket coolers and everything like that cable management it can be done but I have to admit it is a little bit tricky to get all the cable wires in the back of this particular case there's only really I think about 3/4 of an inch in maximum as the depth that you have back there so anthing always does a great job doing that but I remember when he was building this one he was kind of like making a few marks one error or trying to get the cable management in there so it can be done but it does need to have a little bit of work now this is an AMD based system as well so the motherboard that we're using is this motherboard from as rock the B 450 steel series AMD board now this board has a lot of features actually for its price range and if you're into RGB this board has lots of RGB features so human delights hearing all that eye candy and all that stuff the case has lights on it the fans you guys can see in the front they all light up and they can be used in conjunction with this board all the software is there plenty of room this particular board I think is a really solid product especially for the price I think a lot of people out there probably have this board and if you have and you're using it well let us know what you think about it particularly I think it's a really nice board now okay now the CPU that we used it's a really nice CPU it's the 2400 G APU from AMD it's got their onboard graphics if you guys want to see how this particular product scores just on the graphics side of things I'll have a link down below we did a previous system building this really tiny system that was no bigger than my hand I think the performance in this particular system will be just a little bit better because the other parts in that system were like so damn that really you know not really SuperDuper fast harddrive anything no no I guess actually used an SSD so that wasn't a problem I know that it had like so dim memory and it wasn't the fastest stuff and being that's really small you know you're going to sacrifice somewhere but overall this is a really good CPU and we did use the included cooler with this just to keep prices going and it kept the CPU cool throughout all of our testing I think it only got as hot as 83 Celsius at maximum that's you know when we're just absolutely barreling the system down and doing a lot of stuff on it so video card Radeon 570 from the people over at F oh I'm getting a tongue twister today my thing to come a little special thanks to Eric at XFX sport kicking us down with this particular card for this build this is a very nice card it's very kind of a mid-level card it's very well priced these things keep going down in price so even those particular system right now is we're bringing it to you about $700 you can probably find some parts and probably even bring this system cost to a little bit less if you just do a lot more shopping now one thing in this particular build is this this inulin product it's a 120 gigabyte SSD we thought why not these things are like really dirt cheap so why not actually put an SSD in the build you can actually omit this SSD all the way out if you don't want to use it and you can strictly use the Seagate 2 terabyte drive we did you can partition your drive put windows on one and put your games and stuff on another and you'll still be absolutely fine but I just like an SSD if possible because it just makes things really fast so boom this is the power supply now this particular power supply is 100 bucks but it's made of all complete Japanese capacitors it's got a 10-year warranty really solid power supply and you guys always say you know and it's a known fact one thing you don't want to go do is go build this really nice system and then scrimp and get a crappy power supply so having a really good power supply means you could even upgrade a 650 watch you could upgrade the video card you could change the motherboard and still keep your case in the power supply and be really good to go um the only other thing I don't have right now out in the package is the Kingston memory we used an 8 gigabyte kit you can you upgrade to 16 32 whatever you want I think even the 32 gigabyte kit of this particular memory is only like 184 bucks but keeping costs down we wanted to keep the you know the memory you know down at you know a pretty decent price and this left I think was like Oh like I think it's under 50 bucks even so all in all pretty good stuff now you guys can see the system looks really nice I mean look it's beautiful in the front now the only thing that I have to say that I'm really not a fan of and I know that you guys are most likely gonna agree is this glaring cam deist thing on the top of the case I wish that could be changed out or turned off or may not there because it it's almost like a blaring banner like 7-eleven you know it's right there in your face and that's kind of crazy but it still looks pretty cool the finish is kind of a mirror finish so the case looks really nice than the inside of it you can see like I said there's plenty of room for your components to put inside of there you can hide the cables and all that stuff especially from this side you can do it very very well there's enough space inside of it for you put enough hard drives or SSDs whether using you know 2.5 or 3.5 drives you're gonna have enough room inside the case on the backside like I said you guys can see the cable management is all really done nicely but it is kind of a semi tight fit back there but everything was able to get done and look really nice so at the end the system does look really nice we have the fans turned up to full blast right now for the video just so you guys can hear them but you can also turn these fans down and have a system run silently if you want you don't have to have them Spang just depending on what you're doing you might want to keep them on full-blast if your hardcore game and keep them turned down if you're just writing a letter to mom you know it just depends on what you're doing alright so those are all the components for this system and I think like I said it's a really nice well-balanced system especially for being right under $700 I know there's gonna be some opinions that very out there and you can always use these bills a suggestive starting point or change things around to suit yourself now as of the time of this video review we're using the latest Windows 10 with all of the updates we're using the latest drivers that are available at the time of this release but we only ran the test in 1080 and 1440 because of the system that's you know under $700 I really didn't think anybody's gonna be trying to push for a 4k system at that point so with that said though let's rock out to the benchmark song and let's check out those scores now like I said previously you guys can see the CPU only gets as hot as 83 Celsius and the GPU only got us hot as 89 Celsius and this is under full load which means we're playing all the games for a long time before we actually take these measurements all right so there you have it Tech fans a nice little system for under seven hundred bucks I think that it's a really good system for the price range I definitely want to hear what you guys have to say now one thing you guys definitely have to take into consideration when you're watching our videos though is that we already have a set platform for how we test games and the way that we test them is with everything with all the bells and whistles to their absolute maximum which means that you know yes some of these games did get under 60 frames per second on 1080 and definitely less on 1440 but you can adjust the settings in the game so that the games play absolutely a lot better I mean if you're just going around and taking pictures and just viewing the game it's cool if you're not getting a whole bunch of frames per second but you're just viewing the game and checking stuff out most of the programmers pro pro gamers out there man I'm trouble saying this today they turned the games almost their lowest absolute settings so they can bounce around just kill people so the average gamer you know unless you have a super duper duper high end video card to play everything with all the bells and whistles chances are that you're gonna be running this the settings either at medium or on high and with that you're gonna get absolutely a lot better performance I'm sure there's a lot of videos out there on the market that you know that say here here's a 570 and here's what it was with low settings medium settings and stuff like that so you can take the scores that you saw in this particular video and you can just go oh hey guy don't run my games at that you know I run my games more at this and you know what's going on so you'll be good to go like usual we will have a list of all of these parts down below so you can pick and choose if you like the system the way it looks you can recreate the system the way that it is or you can change the parts app to suit your absolute perfect desired system I Amalric you guys been watching techni tomorrow if you guys aren't subbed we'd love to see you guys back in the channel um you can turn notifications on I don't know if you're really doing anything anymore because a lot of my viewers say that they're not getting the notifications even though they have them turned on but hey it's there anyways and we'd love to have you sub here just to have you as part of the family we have a patreon site and a website and we always have a link to all of our music so if you want to check out our songs or any of that kind of stuff there are lots of ways to support the channel we'll see you guys back on here for more reviews and more tech here on tech and tomorrow peace
