Sir, don’t give up like I do every once in a while. I had one video pop off but have gotten no ideas as I constantly look for ideas I might have to change my content up. Just don’t do what I did and make daily uploads for something like what I did, soccer edits. If you are extremely passionate about what you make videos on then you WILL become successful kind of like my most popular video I made. I achieved a pretty nice view count on it and I edited some funny soccer clips and a new edit every few seconds. I assume you probably don’t want to do soccer edits but that’s what I found worked for me on some videos. Bottom line is just do what you like and eventually you will get to be a great content creator. I just know it. Good luck bro on your journey and I’ll subscribe to you to watch your journey. Cheers, Brunelle46

All thanks to actually looking on Marketplace for once, i appreciate your videos as I wasnt sure about Marketplace.. but turns out there can be some sick deals to be had.

Selling online which is all I can to source parts and buy them really sux and cuts into profit because of shipping.

I think what you should do is split the good parts from the older parts. Try and build a budget banger with the i5-4460 and 1050 ti in the free case and sell that for 200. Than redo the challenge with the 10400f and the GTX 980 in the RGB case.

@Guyinatuxedo 5 месяцев назад

Old hardware is hard to sale. If it were me: I would sell it for around 250-300$ because the platform is completely dead (AM4 is still not dead is my eyes). Still for 200$ the pc, that you built, can still handle gaming in 1080p on low/medium settings, but for a flip: I don't see it making much profit. Overall great video and I wish you best of luck in future flips.

@Elijahs Lab I’m in the same boat my guy, I did a pretty clean $550 Ryzen 5 5500 + RTX 3060 Build on my channel.. annddd sadly it’s been like 2 weeks now.. and haven’t quite had any real leads yet. Although 1 or 2 have messaged me today that seem legit, we shall see. I think the hesitation on buying has something to do with tax time. But best of luck to that PC Flip in this episode.

@Alpha-ms9nj 6 месяцев назад

I'm new at building and flipping but had noticed sales were hotter before Christmas. They lag abit before school starts. Tax time I would think would be good as people get those returns coming. The flow of sales seems similar to when I worked in an auto repair shop. Good luck to you man.

@ypk1580 5 месяцев назад

Been buying and selling computers since 2022. One thing I'll tell you now is that people are cheap. They WILL NOT hesitate to buy a $20-$40 Desktop/Laptop that I list for parts. On the other hand, a nicely cleaned midspec laptop will stay listed for weeks on end until I end up having to relist it as an auction or cut the original price by 50%. Sometimes you really have to cut your losses on certain items. Popular/Known gaming pcs will grab more attention than custom built ones. Made Roughly $75 in profit flipping an abused Acer Nitro 5 that's seen better days. That thing was gone within a few days of listing it on eBay.

@claytonpellow4767 5 месяцев назад

really depends on location. in my town they only buy custom gaming pcs and will not buy some name brand crap because they know the parts and value. they will try to undercut you. just ignore and let it sit you can dumb down the price here and there but dont undercut what you put into it. it will take time but if you are in no rush you can make good profit

Every youtuber that does a budget gaming pc build like this always uses the same games to test it out. I like 2077 and GTA 5 but the others are crap to me. New subscriber here. That sucks you weren't able to sell it. I plan on selling my Alienware aurora r6 after I get me a new pc from no compromise gaming. I bought one off their site before like years back and it lasted like 6 years. I hope the new one I get lasts a lot longer then that. I need to clean the thing thought I never clean the pc it just sits there for years.

The parts are just too dated. You can get an xbox series s for $150 and play any new game at decent fps. It craps on any pc with old components. So, unfortunately, it's gonna be hard to get rid of it for anything above 250.
