Yeah, if they actually did spend 500 and 750, then it would of been even better :) They skipped tax. Not even "ahh, its 505" or "Dang, its 755 with tax included" so it was a little over budget. They straight up went like 10% over budget or whatever it is in tax. They with that failed the challenge from the start 😅

@@hbirb I mean, its not that hard to add on the sales tax by simple math. The budget was 500 and 750. With the average sales tax (that I could find) of 6%. Then they needed to sit at 475 and 710. Give or take a few dollars. Wich is a fairly big diffrence and will make it a bit more of a challenge. As said, the diffrence here was an entier component. RAM was if not misstaken 30 bucks, the cases was also around there. So it makes a good diffrence to the entiet setup. I just see it as misleading and a failed challenge when you dont budget it properly. Like I said in previous comment. If you only have that amount, then you couldnt buy these setups. Thats the entier purpose of budget challenges. But lets see it like this, if your lets say student friend came and asked you for tips and maybe even a build setup they could get for the same money they would pay for a console. Your friend say that the price will be $800 with tax. Will you then go to $800 pre tax so your friend have to pay roughly 850 instead? Or would you use that budget to hit 800 with tax? I personally would go for 800 paid and done. Or as I have done before, if I go over, when it will make a significent diffrence, offer them the price diffrence on me 😂

So blessed to live less than an hour from one and have a tech industry in my area. I've found many places in the U.S don't have great deals on PC hardware and everything cost 2-3x what it should if you don't buy stuff online or at Best Buy. Microcenter is the best place to walk in and buy new gear hands down.

Can't wait for the Microcenter in Santa Clara opens. It's much closer to me than Tustin.

This video shows how important balance is in a build, impressive stuff.

The two setttings that you could change are in the installation settings for the game itself they are called pre download streamed assests and high resolution textures, also if you just did the drivers obviously play 3-4 before showing results. (if you plan to play on performance mode disable directx 12 shaders as well)

I’d really love to see something other than “budget build” Why not do some mid to upper range builds? Like best system you can buy for AAA titles. Best system for FPS. Best for MMO, etc. and not just “the cheapest rig that can run Fortnite”

Did you consider looking for refurbished parts at MicroCenter? I just pulled up their site and found a 3060 Ti for $250. You could have swapped some things around to make up the $60 difference over that 6600. That GPU wasn't up to the task.

When did they open of Micro Center in Charlotte? I literally live 20 minutes away from there.

Man it sure would be cool to live near a microcenter shame I don't

The FPS should not be tied to a specific settings. The fun thing to do is play with video setting until you get the FPS limit and see all the sacrifices that were made to reach it! Great Video!

I know I can be hard on yall sometimes, but I truly do love yalls content. This was one of the my favorite videos in recent memory. That $500 intel gpu build looked amazing. Matts looked good too. Keep it up fellas! Also, Fortnite has been acting quite, says my daughter. That combo should have fortnite running at med/high settings (dx12) no lumen and getting above 100 fps. Maybe its still building shaders.

You can buy a 79503dx and 4090 right prebuilt right now from micro center for $2300... I tried to outdo it with a self build but I can not...

Videos like this make you realize that other than occasional deals and open box, microcenter’s prices kinda suck.

I was able to do one with 12600k + 6500XT for 500$ on their website haha. The Bundles for the CPU/Mobo/Ram are the best when it comes for budget.

I believe its called RTSS (Rivatuner statistics server). Its built into the management software on most graphics cards but you usually have to enable it and set what parameters you want monitored.

you should do a 4k budget build challenge. Obviously you'd need to spend more but still budget ranges for 4k gaming

Fortnite on dx12 has to compile shaders in game after graphics driver updates or upon fresh installs causing super lag but usually gets better after a few games so the shaders are compiled

G517 powerspec pre-built with 5800x3d and amd 7600, add 2nd stick of ram FTW. Not as good for content, but the value was there under 700 on deal.

I'm pretty sure the arc card freaking out is the resizeable bar not activated in the bios.

I don’t feel like this was a CPU issue with Matt’s PC, but a GPU issue at high settings. I run a 5800x3D with a Strix 4070 at 1440p and cruise. 6600 can’t keep up! But yea, games looks SO DIFFERENT at high settings.

No it's not the CPU. I don't know what Matt's options were on GPUs and CPUs and pricing so I'm not going to say he did it wrong. I would try go with a Ryzen 5600 with a better GPU, but that is in hindsight. Of course you can't buy a 4070 for that budget. 4070 is a solid 1440p card where the 6600 is clearly a 1080p card.
