But don't despair! We’re building a budget gaming PC using second-hand parts for less than the new PS5 Digital Edition price. Can this "Scrapyard Spirit" build beat the PS5's performance, even with high RAM and SSD costs?

I much prefer videos like this, feels like LTT from a few years ago, very nice
The time has come... My exact build of 12400f + Rx 6600xt is being paraded around as budget lol
PC will just always be better to me because of the many advantages it brings: Being able to freely set settings, being able to upgrade and, most importantly, being able to run anything I want.
Riley’s ads getting more unhinged is amazing.
Linus, I still remember you! You helped me pick out my first laptop back at NCIX. It’s great to see how far things have come since then.
Think LTT have finally realised that flexing money for the past month isnt what people want to see.
My reaction to the title: “wait what!?”
Windows HDR is really horrible, I also noticed that HDR looks better on console in most games Maybe a video on windows HDR is a good idea 🤔
13:45 also you got a machine that isn't only for gaming. important to highlight :)
You know what would be great? a tier list of old SH hardware. Like what are still great CPU/GPU generations for light and medium gaming compared to average prices. Would be really cool for those who are not that versed in old components to have a reference video, or an LTT Labs article.
The key to PC gaming is patience, most PC games today are very scalable. You can play most games on a GTX 1660 Super and still have a great experience if you tweak the settings and use some upscaling. If you know your hardware and have realistic expectations of what it can do, then you’ll have a great time
1:57 Only 6 of those 8 cores on console get to be fully utilised by games anyway.
"getting *X* for that price shouldn't be a problem anywhere with a healthy Facebook marketplace" Meanwhile ANYWHERE but USA:
Bro that PSU said Haswell ready... that was 13 years ago
"I can't turn off motion blur 'cause it's a console game" Several console games do let you turn that off, speaking from experience. Kojima is just more artsy fartsy, speaking from experience.
7:42 this hurt
Why Not compare the price of secondhand PS5 against PC Parts from secondhand
7:42 - 😢 Your Poor PCIe Slot
Linus might be onto something with the 'testing the market' theory for the PS6. If people accept a price hike now, $600-$700 for the next gen is going to be the new normal
5:55 *Reminder:* GTA VI will be a _console exclusive_ at launch. Probably for a year or more. So even *IF* it comes out this year, PC probably wont see it until late 2027 or early 2028.
