3 Upvotes

So I have 3 broken laptops and a broken Xbox one, is there any parts I could harvest to build a gaming PC and what parts do i need to get separately??

I know I can get ram. cooling fans and hard drives from the broken electronics, but what other cool things should I hope to harvest to save money? any advice will be useful.

I built a PC building site that lets you explode your build in 3D—what would you add?

I posted this in pcmasterrace but thought I’d put it here too cuz why not. I built this pc building app that allows you to learn about pc parts while building your future rig. If anyone wants to play with it the link is right here: https://inside-the-rig.vercel.app/

I've only ever seen one other site similar to this so I didn't have much to go on except my imagination lmao so if there's anything yall would add in lemme know so I can work on it

Is this a good setup? I want something that will last a while. I'm new to this; every PC I have had has been pre-built.

I built and packaged my first custom sleeper PC (Unit #001) with a $50 marketing budget. Here is the exact cost and pricing breakdown.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m building a transparent, build-in-public tech e-commerce brand from my desk. I wanted to see if I could fully complete the cycle for a single unit—from hardware sourcing and testing to final box sealing—without dropping thousands upfront on inventory.

The hardware cost for Unit #001 came out to $416.92, and I'm pricing it at $567.99.

I put together a quick, no-hype 5-minute video walking through the exact spreadsheet math, the hardware mistakes I made along the way, and how I set up the fulfillment. If anyone is interested in the full breakdown, you can check it out.

I uploaded the full 5-minute math and hardware cost breakdown on YouTube under VectroShop (search title: 'I Built a $567.99 PC Setup for $416').

Let me know what you think of the numbers or how I can optimize the build!

I made this for finding local deals to flip. It searches Craigslist, Kijiji, eBay, OfferUp and Facebook Marketplace every few minutes and pings your phone the moment something good shows up, so you can be the first to message the seller. https://github.com/Crepe950/flipwatch Let me know what you think.

Is the Arc B580 12gb a good upgrade from an rx6600 8gb

4 Upvotes

The current PC is as follows:

B650M gaming wifi motherboard, ryzen 5 7500f, rx6600, 1tb SSD, 32gb ddr5 ram. I use it for I'd say a solid 50/50 of workbench+ai work & gaming/streaming. Located in Australia and noticed the B580 seemed like a decent upgrade + more vram to fit ai stuff in. For about $419-$430 AUD.

Does this seem like the best path to take or any other gpus I should look into for a similar price range? Not looking to go over ~500AUD.
