The Build Process Begins
Now that we have all the parts, let's start building this incredible gaming PC. Our first task is to remove the top two PCI slots on the motherboard as they are the cheap Snap-on types. Unfortunately, these slots require a bit of force to be removed, and I do not prefer this method, but it's acceptable for this build. As an extra precaution, I would recommend replacing these slots with better removable solutions in the future.
Our Graphics Card Choice
We have chosen the RX 7600 as our graphics card, which is a great option for gaming performance without breaking the bank. The Gigabyte card comes with a three-fan Windforce style cooler, which is amazing considering its price. Other options like the 6700 and 6750 XT are also fantastic but will cost more and be harder to find.
Gaming Benchmark Numbers
Let's take a look at some gaming benchmark numbers for our RX 7600. In Call of Duty: War Zone 3, we can achieve around 124 FPS on average at 1080p High with FSR enabled and set to Quality. This is a very competitive frame rate that should allow us to perform well in this game while keeping it running smoothly. Modern Warfare 3 has similar results, achieving around 126 FPS on average at the same settings. Moving into more demanding games like Starfield, we can still achieve over 100 FPS and comfortably so.
Competitive Esports Titles
Fortnite at 1080p competitive settings achieves just shy of 150 FPS, while Apex Legends also achieves very good frame rates with around 155 FPS on average. Our RX 7600 is more than capable of handling these competitive esports titles without any issues.
Installing the GPU
Now that we have our performance numbers, let's install the GPU into the build. We'll start by pushing back the clip on the top slot of our ASRock motherboard. Then, we'll slide the GPU in, applying a bit of pressure to secure it properly. Next, we'll add two screws to hold it down and close the rear door to tidy up the build.
Powering Up the System
With the GPU installed, we can now power up the system using our Thermal Take Smart BM3 power supply. Although I initially recommended the 650 W unit, we already had a 750 W unit available, so spending money on an extra wattage wasn't necessary in this case. However, if you're building from scratch, the only difference between these two units is the wattage efficiency and power connections.
Cabling Up the System
Now that our system is powered up, let's cable everything up properly. We'll start by connecting the GPU to the power supply using a 6+2P TW pin harness. Next, we'll find a SATA cable for the built-in RGB Hub and connect it to the bottom of the case. Then, we'll spin the chassis around and install the power supply at the back. We'll add four screws to secure it in place, followed by motherboard cables going to the far right-hand side, CPU power cables to the top left, and GPU cables to the GPU.
Booting Up the System
The final step is to jump-start our PC using a screwdriver, as I accidentally used the wrong pins earlier. And... it's on! The system boots up beautifully, with all the RGB fans lighting up and the DRAM displaying a beautiful pattern. With this build, we get an amazing package for $750.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat is up guys welcome back to another geeko video in this one I'm going to be showing you how to build this an awesome $750 gaming PC build that smashes through all the latest titles at 1080P and Beyond let's do this the gigabyte AO 16 OLED combines performance a Sleek design and a stun in 4k OLED panel to create the ultimate high-end on the-go laptop solution with ddr5 memory a gem 4 SSD RTX 40 series graphics and even an I9 in this model the AO 16 has you covered a Sleek design with slim bezels top tier portability and awesome Aesthetics rounds off a great package learn more about the gigabyte AOS 16 OLED at the first link in the description below in order to get accurate idea of pricing I'm going to use new EG to pick all the parts of this build then order the bits I don't already have before assembling the system step by step now it's interesting because new EG have their entry level build below 1.2k we're going to try and do this build for just $750 now I'm going to start with the CPU couple of options to choose from probably got something like the 12400 F from Intel's last generation so that's going to come in at $49 with a further $15 off taking us down to 135 but of course we can also consider something like the Ryon 5600 or 5600x and you can see the 5600 comes in at just $129 I'm going to Hazard a guess this is probably the slightly better option versus the Intel i5 Choice let's go ahead and add that six core 12 thread chip straight to the car now as far as motherboards go we of course want something b550 that's the more budget oriented chipset for ryzen 5000 processors so let's go on to new search b550 and then actually sought by the bestselling options couple of options straight away this prob board looks quite nice but I fear that the white color scheme just isn't really what we're going for in this build this azrock board looks a bit more like it though and at $99 is broadly within the kind of money that I wanted to spend it has got USBC and that's the thing I was going to look out for I want to make sure that we've got USB 3.2 Gen 2 type c and also type A in this instance so that of course you can get that neck gen connectivity so let's add that to the car nice and easy as far as memory or Ram is concerned normally I'd go for 32 gigs if the build costed $1,000 or more but I think because of the tipe budget that we're on here I think 32 gig kit is just too expensive so let's see what the best selling 16 gigabyte options are available on new EG straight away Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro one of the best selling kits at 84 54 here for a 3200 MHz kit ideally we want 3600 MHz for ryzen though so let's bear that in mind there is a Corsair vengance kit here which is 3600 MHz ddr4 for just 57 and that's going to give us 16 gigs as I say I ideally 32 gigs would be preferable but I think 16 for the kind of 1080p gaming PC we're building will be totally fine plus you can always upgrade later that gives us then the motherboard RAM and CPU and puts us at just under $300 we've used between a third and half of the budget so far we're not doing too badly I'm also at this stage going to find ourselves a storage solution I am of the opinion that you should always opt for a gem 4 mvme given just how much cheaper they've got nowadays and that's going to give your system the illusion of speed no one wants to wait ages for their PC to actually boot up or in fact for things to download internet speeds nowadays are so quick we want to make sure we've got a good drive we want a gem 4 options we're going to pick PCI Express 4 X4 and hit apply and we also want to go for a drive that's got a maximum price I would say of up to about $75 any more than this and we're probably wasting money WD black SN 770 at $74 not too bad MSI spatium m450 is better at 57 but I've noticed here this this crucial P3 plus which has better speeds than the spatium drive and at just $54 is exactly what we're after it is back ordered so hopefully it'll come back in stock or of course you can check out up-to dat pricing for other retailers like Amazon in the description below this video isn't sponsored by New Egg I'm just using their prices to get a realistic $750 build put together that then leaves us with around about $400 for the rest of the components so that's a CPU coer if we decide to buy one we can use the stock coer that comes included that also means we need a case PSU and and GPU now as far as power supply goes I think we need a 650 wat unit for this build I'm going to Hazard a guess that the graphics card will be able to fit in this budget isn't going to go much Beyond needing a 650 W power supply and straight away this thermal take smart bm3 is a superb option it's got PCI G 5 it's got an 80 plus bronze certification for good efficiency and it's available in other variants the 750 watt is only $10 more the 850 watt is only $20 more and you can even get a 500 watt version for $40 if you want I think we should go for the 80 plus bronze version though it's $70 never want to cheap out too much on a power supply go for a reputable brand is really important now then we've got $412 so far spent that gives us about $330 left to spend I'm going to allocate about $50 to the case but we'll pick that at the end because that's a much more subjective choice leaving us with about 270 for the GPU I always leave the GPU right to the end so we know exactly how much money we have to spend so what graphics card can you get for sub $300 you of course could get something like an rtx4 60 for $299 though that isn't necessarily the Best Buy at this price point let's just have a look at how much they are going for on new Eggo in sort of fairness to Nvidia I suppose RTX 460 lowest price $299 we're going to struggle to fit that in the budget to be honest with you and that's for a single fan card that's probably not going to do us really any favors on the AMD side you've got something like the 6700 which is a great card but I also fear that's going to be out the budget yeah you're looking here at $300 or so for the 6700 XT variants a little bit too expensive really for what we want potentially though the newer 7600 might be a better shout not the CPU the GPU let's add RX to the start of that and see where we land we'll sort by Price lowest to high now the 7600 has a couple of caveats you only get 8 GB of vram whereas on the 6700 XT you get 12 which is much better for 1440p gameing but a card like this gigabyte one one of the cheapest options available with three fans we've actually reviewed this card and pretty impressed with it really is a great shout if it's only 1080p in which you're looking to game this is a superb option it's just a little bit vram constrained when you try and play at those High resolutions to be honest with you I think that's going to be the best shout and even the secondhand Market is probably not going to yield as much better for $270 so let's pop that in the car as well and view our system so far so $680 that leaves us with about $70 left for the case choice and this is where things get a bit complicated I'd like to avoid a budget noname case through a brown the that I've never heard of and never tested because they're not very nice to build in and they just create problems there are some great recommendations I can give though the montech air is always been a great choice but the new montech Air 9003 Max is phenomenal the only problem with that case is that it's quite large and although it's autome value our small Micro ATX motherboard is going to look a bit out of place deepcool and fantex are other good brands to consider at this price point you've got the g300 a Ultra from fantex which is $69 plus $5 off while deep cool CC 560 based on their 560 chassis lineup is another solid option the q300l is also a great barebones option I hate it when they say C pricing cart let's add it to the car see how much it's going to cost how much is that going to cost show me show me the price at just $39 but I'm going to use this cink chassis it's a mesh case that looks like most budget mesh cases on the market it's available here in the UK for a great price and I'll link best Global availability for this and all the other options down in the description below the build though I think looks great we've got a b550 motherboard with USBC and USB 3.2 bandwidth the 7600 GPU which is one of the best for that $250 price point give or take with the 650 W power supply that's actually atx3 and PCI G 5 for just $70 with a 1 TB SSD 16 gigs of ddr4 memory and a ryzen 5 5600 for $750 that looks amazing so let me order all these parts and I'll be right back with you once they've arrived so a few days have passed and all the bits I was missing have arrived and I feel like as this at every build pretty good part selections all in all it feels weird to go back to a b550 motherboard choice in the present day when b650 boards have kind of become the norm but it's such a great value proposition AMD really are killing it with how long they continuing some of their older CPUs for so that's enough chat in James we want to see a PC build so let's start building oh no a computer ryzon 5 5600x to start off with into the b550m Mard oh man inside in the motherboard box you'll find yourself the built-in rear iio Shield also get the motherboard manual and a driver CD we definitely won't be needing that otherwise though the most important thing that you get in the box is the actual motherboard itself here we go the super budget super great value ASRock b550m Pro for then it's the case of installing our ryzen 55600 processor six cores and 12 threads a fudget gaming goodness make it an awesome selection for this build with these older AMD sockets it's just just a case of pulling up the arm dropping the CPU in but be careful the pins on the CPU are pretty delicate the arm goes down really easily and then I'm also just going to add on the stock cooler you'll need to remove the built-in plastic brackets for this before popping the cooler down onto the included back plate in an Ideal World I would have picked up something like the Deep cool ak400 or be quiet pure rock range but we're on a budget this is going to be fine as long as we don't want to do any overclocking or anything particularly fancy the Ram's next up this Vengeance DDR 4 Kit is nice and easy to pop in just going to add it into the second and fourth slots a little something like this apply even pressure that'll click into place lovely jubly and repeat for as many dims as you've got of course you can upgrade to 32 gigs later by buying an identical kit and filling the spare slots 32 gigs is a little Overkill I think for this build as alluded to earlier but is helpful especially for slightly higher resolution gaming in AAA titles in particular then the motherboard I was going to say is finished but that would be a lie we need to do the m.2 mvme drive and that is where this comes in this is the crucial P3 plus read and write speed about 5 gabt a second really really good and it's going to make sure this system feels incredibly Snappy this motherboard also has a built-in m.2 heat shield so that's going to help diffuse the heat from the m.2 SSD and of course keep a lid on those Drive temperatures so let's just unscrew both of those they're very small screws so just be careful not to lose them this is where a magnetic screwdriver can be particularly handy then pop the drivein sort of in a 45° angle to begin with get it in there and then push it down before finally adding the m.2 armor Heat sink back on top a little something like this there we are get it lined up use your small teeny tidy screwdriver once again just to fasten these screws into place get the first one going just a little bit before adding the second one in and then tighten both of them up to finish things off that is where this colink case comes in from earlier it's called The Observatory but basically what you want is any mesh case that's ATX with a mesh panel at the front as the name sort of suggests and if we remove the mesh panel there you go we got three 120 mil AR argb fans that's going to give us load of air flow through the chassis there's another 120 mil at the rear feels pretty nice actually got like a magnetic dust filter situation and then on the side the side panel magnets closed and when you swing the glass around can just be lifted off its hinges nice and easily I am going to lay the case down flat for the next sted of the build which is installing the motherboard and that's going to make it just that little bit easier just be careful as well to TU away all these cables which are slightly Tangled to be honest with you in the back of the Chassy I've just realized you also get two 120 mil RGB fans at the top you get six included AR RGB fans wow that's more than expensive cases fair play I'll link this down at overclockers UK in the description below Co link I like what I see one thing I don't like quite so much is that you actually do have to install the io shield with this motherboard but it's saving us a load of money that frankly I don't care just slide it into the rear cut out of the case your audio port should be at the bottom then clip it in all four corners watch your fingers can be a bit sharp then the motherboard itself just slides on top do this really carefully get it all lined up I've just realized we do need to move a couple of standoffs as well I was a bit Hasty there if you look at the case you'll see we've got two standoffs at the top and two down the middle as well as two at the bottom we're going to move the two at the bottom to more appropriate locations for our matx board screw it in corner by corner do everything nice and loose and tighten each one up as you go it really is pretty simple and with that the motherboard is in that's looking pretty good it is an m8x board in an ATX case but it's a much smaller ATX case than lots of other options so personally I think it looks fine what we are going to do though is pop the GPU in next now we're going to need to remove the top two PCI slots now unfortunately these PCI lanes are the cheap Snap-on types you basically have to give them a bit of a wiggle snap them out it's not my preferred way of doing things and I do think for the sake of an extra few dollars or pounds these should be changed out for a better removable solution but as long as you don't take the wrong ones out you'll be fine GPU I RX 7600 amazing Choice yes the 6700 6750 XT are also fantastic options but they will cost you more and are harder to get your hands on this is very readily available and the fact that this gigabyte card was like the second or third cheapest 7600 on the whole of Newegg with a three fan windforce style cooler is amazing why did I pick the 7600 well let's take a look at some of the gaming Benchmark numbers you'll be able to achieve on this card first of all in Call of Duty's War Zone 3 for example at 1080p high with FSR enabled and set to Quality you'll be able to pull in around 124 FPS on average this is a really competitive frame rate that should allow you to perform well and also keep the game running super smooth Call of Duty's Modern Warfare 3 was a very very similar story which is not particularly surprising 1080p High FSR again on quality you'd be able to pull in around 126 FPS on average just two frames per second of differential here while moving through into even a game like Starfield much harder to run more difficult when it comes to driver optimizations still yields over 100 FPS and quite comfortably so at 1080p High settings firstperson shooter competitive Esports titles are also more than capable for a card and build like this fortnite at 1080p competitive settings achieve just shy of two 150 FPS wow while Apex Legends at 1080p High also achieved very good frame ratees 155 FPS on average I could go on and on and you can learn more about all the performance from not only this build but also the 7600 Linked In the card section now and description box down below so with performance in the bag the only thing left to do is actually install the GPU into the build now I'm going to push back the clip on the top slot of our azrock motherboard lovely stuff then slide the GPU in yeah bit of pressure lovely stuff that looks really really quite good couple of screws are going to secure it down then the rear door is going to close just to tidy things up a little bit and of course all that's left to do afterwards is get it all wired up with power from the power supply the final piece of the puzzle is this thermal take smart bm3 now I did recommend in the earlier portion of this video the 650 W unit this is the 750 watt unit but I already had the 750 so I thought spending money on the 650 was kind of pointless but obviously if you're doing this build from scratch the only difference between this and the 650 is the wattage efficiency is the same power connections are the same both atx3 PCI 5 with Japanese main capacitors as well for good measure now opening this power of light up we don't actually need the G 5 cable but as mentioned earlier it's just quite nice to have PSU is of course there just need to find ourselves by the looks of things a GPU and a SATA power connection so GPU looks a little something like this with dual 6 Plus TW pin harnesses so that's going to pop into the power supply then of course we need to get ourselves a SATA cable for the built in RGB Hub that's this thing right here pop that into the bottom as well then it's a case of spinning the chassis round and installing the PSU at the back slide that in and four screws to secure it in motherboard cable goes to the far right hand side it's the largest of the bunch while the CPU power cable goes to the top left and the GPU cable to the GPU nice and simple and then in theory the system should boot up now I haven't done the front panel cables yet so I'm going to use my handy screwdriver to actually jump start the PC ah it's on it lives it lives I was jumping the wrong pins different on different motherboards wow that looks amazing GPU all the RGB fans the dram is on you know what $750 and that is what you get you saw the performance earlier I think as a package it looks phenominal what do you guys think let me know in the comments below check out all the parts Linked In the description below $750 who' have thought itwhat is up guys welcome back to another geeko video in this one I'm going to be showing you how to build this an awesome $750 gaming PC build that smashes through all the latest titles at 1080P and Beyond let's

next up this Vengeance DDR 4 Kit is nice and easy to pop in just going to add it into the second and fourth slots a little something like this apply even pressure that'll click into place lovely jubly and repeat for as many dims as you've got of course you can upgrade to 32 gigs later by buying an identical kit and filling the spare slots 32 gigs is a little Overkill I think for this build as alluded to earlier but is helpful especially for slightly higher resolution gaming in AAA titles in particular then the motherboard I was going to say is finished but that would be a lie we need to do the m.2 mvme drive and that is where this comes in this is the crucial P3 plus read and write speed about 5 gabt a second really really good and it's going to make sure this system feels incredibly Snappy this motherboard also has a built-in m.2 heat shield so that's going to help diffuse the heat from the m.2 SSD and of course keep a lid on those Drive temperatures so let's just unscrew both of those they're very small screws so just be careful not to lose them this is where a magnetic screwdriver can be particularly handy then pop the drivein sort of in a 45° angle to begin with get it in there and then push it down before finally adding the m.2 armor Heat sink back on top a little something like this there we are get it lined up use your small teeny tidy screwdriver once again just to fasten these screws into place get the first one going just a little bit before adding the second one in and then tighten both of them up to finish things off that is where this colink case comes in from earlier it's called The Observatory but basically what you want is any mesh case that's ATX with a mesh panel at the front as the name sort of suggests and if we remove the mesh panel there you go we got three 120 mil AR argb fans that's going to give us load of air flow through the chassis there's another 120 mil at the rear feels pretty nice actually got like a magnetic dust filter situation and then on the side the side panel magnets closed and when you swing the glass around can just be lifted off its hinges nice and easily I am going to lay the case down flat for the next sted of the build which is installing the motherboard and that's going to make it just that little bit easier just be careful as well to TU away all these cables which are slightly Tangled to be honest with you in the back of the Chassy I've just realized you also get two 120 mil RGB fans at the top you get six included AR RGB fans wow that's more than expensive cases fair play I'll link this down at overclockers UK in the description below Co link I like what I see one thing I don't like quite so much is that you actually do have to install the io shield with this motherboard but it's saving us a load of money that frankly I don't care just slide it into the rear cut out of the case your audio port should be at the bottom then clip it in all four corners watch your fingers can be a bit sharp then the motherboard itself just slides on top do this really carefully get it all lined up I've just realized we do need to move a couple of standoffs as well I was a bit Hasty there if you look at the case you'll see we've got two standoffs at the top and two down the middle as well as two at the bottom we're going to move the two at the bottom to more appropriate locations for our matx board screw it in corner by corner do everything nice and loose and tighten each one up as you go it really is pretty simple and with that the motherboard is in that's looking pretty good it is an m8x board in an ATX case but it's a much smaller ATX case than lots of other options so personally I think it looks fine what we are going to do though is pop the GPU in next now we're going to need to remove the top two PCI slots now unfortunately these PCI lanes are the cheap Snap-on types you basically have to give them a bit of a wiggle snap them out it's not my preferred way of doing things and I do think for the sake of an extra few dollars or pounds these should be changed out for a better removable solution but as long as you don't take the wrong ones out you'll be fine GPU I RX 7600 amazing Choice yes the 6700 6750 XT are also fantastic options but they will cost you more and are harder to get your hands on this is very readily available and the fact that this gigabyte card was like the second or third cheapest 7600 on the whole of Newegg with a three fan windforce style cooler is amazing why did I pick the 7600 well let's take a look at some of the gaming Benchmark numbers you'll be able to achieve on this card first of all in Call of Duty's War Zone 3 for example at 1080p high with FSR enabled and set to Quality you'll be able to pull in around 124 FPS on average this is a really competitive frame rate that should allow you to perform well and also keep the game running super smooth Call of Duty's Modern Warfare 3 was a very very similar story which is not particularly surprising 1080p High FSR again on quality you'd be able to pull in around 126 FPS on average just two frames per second of differential here while moving through into even a game like Starfield much harder to run more difficult when it comes to driver optimizations still yields over 100 FPS and quite comfortably so at 1080p High settings firstperson shooter competitive Esports titles are also more than capable for a card and build like this fortnite at 1080p competitive settings achieve just shy of two 150 FPS wow while Apex Legends at 1080p High also achieved very good frame ratees 155 FPS on average I could go on and on and you can learn more about all the performance from not only this build but also the 7600 Linked In the card section now and description box down below so with performance in the bag the only thing left to do is actually install the GPU into the build now I'm going to push back the clip on the top slot of our azrock motherboard lovely stuff then slide the GPU in yeah bit of pressure lovely stuff that looks really really quite good couple of screws are going to secure it down then the rear door is going to close just to tidy things up a little bit and of course all that's left to do afterwards is get it all wired up with power from the power supply the final piece of the puzzle is this thermal take smart bm3 now I did recommend in the earlier portion of this video the 650 W unit this is the 750 watt unit but I already had the 750 so I thought spending money on the 650 was kind of pointless but obviously if you're doing this build from scratch the only difference between this and the 650 is the wattage efficiency is the same power connections are the same both atx3 PCI 5 with Japanese main capacitors as well for good measure now opening this power of light up we don't actually need the G 5 cable but as mentioned earlier it's just quite nice to have PSU is of course there just need to find ourselves by the looks of things a GPU and a SATA power connection so GPU looks a little something like this with dual 6 Plus TW pin harnesses so that's going to pop into the power supply then of course we need to get ourselves a SATA cable for the built in RGB Hub that's this thing right here pop that into the bottom as well then it's a case of spinning the chassis round and installing the PSU at the back slide that in and four screws to secure it in motherboard cable goes to the far right hand side it's the largest of the bunch while the CPU power cable goes to the top left and the GPU cable to the GPU nice and simple and then in theory the system should boot up now I haven't done the front panel cables yet so I'm going to use my handy screwdriver to actually jump start the PC ah it's on it lives it lives I was jumping the wrong pins different on different motherboards wow that looks amazing GPU all the RGB fans the dram is on you know what $750 and that is what you get you saw the performance earlier I think as a package it looks phenominal what do you guys think let me know in the comments below check out all the parts Linked In the description below $750 who' have thought it\n"
