I traded a working PC for this broken PC because the buyer got scammed!!! 

yes most pcs are xp ones hear better ones on Ebay

@@EastAngliaUK XP PCs are still useful for those that require such a PC, very good for running older games and programs that won't play nicely with newer operating systems.

Hey man we all aren't like this. I sell lots of my builds on market place. I buy lots of parts too through market place. That being said I've also wasted a lot of gas from people trying to scam. I report those people right away so nobody else gets scammed.

@@TheSpotify95 core 2 quad PC’ s are great if you are learning how to code. I’ve gotten most modern games with the exception of Easy Anti Cheat games to play on the core 2 quad using Intels SDE instruction set emulator. Anyway, dont know how my question deviated discussing XP PC’s etc. you can get 10th gen intels, and modern ryzen PC’s at the e waste recyclers for $25

@@forzaflyracer3473 Im a cheap bastard. 1- you can never beat a broken or used PC for $25. There is very little risk because even if it wont work from a bad mobo, powersupply, CPU, or RAM dismantelling will yield a minimum of 100% against that computer not working. Now if I buy from some douchebag on Facebook Market Place and pay $75 to $100. I would have to spend more time and energybon the part out its just not worth it. FACTS from doing craigslist/FB Market place/ Offer UP. There are no returns and people ghost others. When I use to do these inline market places. 70% of GPU’s I would get prior to my testing were bad and 50% would ghost me. On PC’s even if they do work, I have to waste my time and energy to get a hunk of junk to work minimizing my profits. That happens with atleast 50% of computers on these online market places. If you have access to Ewaste for $25 with no discretions. Why even waste time, energy and money with someone on these market places? I would rather pay a mark up on places like ebay with a money back guaranty if a seller ghosts me.

That would be awesome, depending on what part of VA I am not that far email me dlmtechgarage@gmail.com

thanks!!

Thats a shame cause the case itself doesn't look half bad tbh lol

sounds good, im currently looking for a deal on a gpu or wether to wait for 50 series / 8000 series amd been as i already upgraded from my r7 2700x to a 7800x3d. (oh i sold my 2700x with my old drr4 and x470 motherboard for nearly the cost of the 7800x3d so basically bought a motherboard

@@christianbilling3540 I'm coming up on a GPU upgrade as well, the word is to wait until the new ones launch. I'm not sure the release dates for the next gen, so I may end up getting impatient and ordering anyways lol. Going for the snow white PowerColor RX 7800XT. It's a bit under $600 last I checked, which honestly isn't a ton anyways.

@@zach7384 yeah i wanna hold out also see what next gen (prices) are like cause surely the prices gonna have to drop so that us holdouts actually give them our money lol (im holding out on a 2080ti still) so skipped rtx 3000 and 4000 / amd 6000 and 70000

@@christianbilling3540 For sure. I get a fat bonus around Christmas every year, plan on picking one up then. If the new ones still aren't out, I'll just pay whatever the 7800 xt costs at that point. Hopefully we can both get the upgrade for a good price lol things always change in the PC parts world.

@@zach7384 yeah hopefully man. prices got insane with gpu mining and chip shortage though. cause even with inflation they shouldn't cost anywhere near what they currently do like my 2080ti was £700 new a 4080 super now of equivalent model is like £1200 (well i say equivalent EVGA aren't in the game anymore :(

Yeah, people can easily dress up an old ageing system with a modern case... Also that case had zero airflow!

@@TheSpotify95 I have a Dremel bit that can fix that 😉

dude has been happy and even upgraded the gpu!!

Technically lga 1151 was 6th through 9th gen but would require a z370 / z390 to run a 8th or 9th gen cpu but 6th and 7th gen ran on z170 and z270 respectively. Although, back in those days there was a mod called the "coffeetime mod" that would allow you to run a 8th or 9th gen cpu on a z170 motherboard but required some research and tampering with the motherboard and cpu.

greatly appreciate. Email me at dlmtechgarage@gmail.com, always looking to stock up!!

compusa!!! some of my greatest child hood memories are from that place!!!

🙂 i think some parts are cursed or haunted cause I have seen testimonies where they replaced everything and it still doesnt work rite, its so creepy 👻🤔👻

If all the main parts were replaced and it kept failing you probably had a problem with your Power Supply.

@@jaycahow4667 🙂 yes thats a good point thanks

@@jaycahow4667 yeah... That was the final concensus. People checked the piece but they say it was fine... It wasn't until later that a friend of my dad took a look he discovered the piece had a flaw. It was weird. Worked fine initially but after a while it would fluctuate and cause a mess. But by that point, I gave up.

@@jaycahow4667 Yeah... Eventually that was the conclusion we reached... But by that point I've given up.

if you got a good power supply form a reputable company you should be fine. Also check your power cable and ensure the wall socket is not damage. I have seen faulty wall sockets cuase these issues.

@@DLMtechgarage That is a good point! I was thinking the motherboard, but I have my sound system plugged into the same "socket" (With a surge protector), no issues. But since this post my PC HAS shut off unexpectingly, but I was able to turn it back on. Could it be a power surge (Like i said, I DO have high end surge protector)? Thank you!

With my systems that have multiple drives, Downloads/Documents/Music/Photos/Videos are put on the larger hard drive. Programs and OS on the SSD, everything else on the HDD.

Moving desktop to separate drive is very stupid. Because now if the 2nd drive is removed, dies or otherwise connection is lost to it, the desktop stuff won't load and be usable. Downloads, sure. But never move a Desktop folder to separate drive.

@@SapphireThunder Well, keeping files on the desktop is stupid in the first place. The point is that when you have a very small SSD and a person you're selling the PC to is not tech-savvy, that is an option... Did you watch the video at all?

@@mkrleza If person isn't tech-savvy, moving the Desktop files on another drive than C drive is even worse. Because then when something goes wrong, small issue becomes larger issue.

@@SapphireThunder OMG, this is gonna become an online discussion... How so? Again, in the spirit of this particular video, you either put one large SSD like DLM did, you do what I suggested, or you educate the buyer... Geez! Watch the video, and grasp the context!

same to you!!

nice find

people find it easier i guess

I want to but it is hard with a full time job.

The socket number is usually printed on the motherboard, the socket number will let you know what processor it supports. Hard to remember them all just whip out your phone and google it, I remember most of them but would still google it for sure. That’s a 1151 socket the processor the original scammer claimed it to be is socket 1200.

I have seen to many junk pc's from them come through my garage for repairs...

def a gamble!!

I really dislike people who do that.

🙂 the post screen should still show up and an error message stating 'no drive'

Except there was a Samsung SSD in there...

🤣🤣

rgb almost could not save this one lol...

I gave him an i7 6700 system, 16gb ddr4, 512 m.2 with a 1650... that works for free this one had a pentium cpu with a r7 250 and 120gb ssd.... no sure how I did not help him????

Items never came, got money back😢
