I visited Tokyo for a few days before COVID, the one thing I am always amazed about Japan is how clean the streets are even at populated places.

@smcha4 2 года назад

There are barely any garbage bins around either; take your rubbish home with you.

@smithkakuta7361 2 года назад

In Japan, not only urban roads but also rural roads are very clean I think the only unpaved road is in the depths of the mountain...

@edwardfletcher7790 2 года назад

Japanese people are very community minded and have great pride in their environment 👍😆

@CaimAstraea Год назад

You've never seen the living streets on garbage pick up days. People throw the garbage on the curb side. They don't use bins instead just throw a net over .. the rats and crows pick apart and scatter the trash all over. Nothing clean about it. Wish they would learn about the wonders of the good old trust bin.

Your channel changed my life when it came to pcs never have had a lot of money but thanks to you I have a pretty nice pc for cheap , with a e5 2640 v3 and a Gtx 1070 and 16gb of ram which works great for any game I play! So thankyou!

Really appreciate you sharing these parts hunt, learning lots about the Japanese used market. How does the selling market compare Japan vs Australia?

Gotta start selling soon, not sure yet. Will keep you updated.

Not all are great, there is no Brand that only sells good PSUs. FSP is a major OEM Power Supply Manufacturer, their Power Supplies gets gebranded by CoolerMaster, Antec and EVGA, while also having their Own Lineup of PSUs. Usually Companies have multiple OEMs Working on a PSU Lineup for the Brands named above, so technicially neither of you is Wrong. FSP and Superflower has been working for EVGA.

Now you've motivated me to go have a look at these used parts stores while I'm here. I think 'para' is short for paradise, I've seen it in names of other types of used goods stores here.

Really happy for you getting to be there with the kiddo. I can see the more relaxed demeanor in your videos. Keep the good stuff coming. Envy your time there.

@sedumguy 2 года назад

15:46 its the same case for Indonesia aswell. lets say a 16gb ddr4 3600mhz ram kit costs ab 60-70$ in the us, in my country it would cost around 80-100$. its the same thing for ssds aswell but i mostly see the price jump on NVMEs.

@RuliManurung 2 года назад

As a fellow PC parts bargain hunter myself, I love these videos! Thanks for sharing, and keep up the good work. Personally I find the hassle of physically visiting Akihabara nowadays to not be worth it compared to Yahoo Auctions or Mercari. BTW, I would love to know more about how you get on with the selling/flipping side of things. Do you put the fully built PCs up on Mercari? Ebay? It'd be great if you could do a video on this aspect. Hope you enjoy spending time with your family!

秋葉原最終処分場is a good place too. The only thing is they sell stuff for cheap, but there is no guarantee it will work. It is fun if you're only buying cheap stuff, but when an expensive thing doesn't work, it kinda hurts your wallet.

Got an awesome deal recently and msi x99s gaming7 and an 6800k for a 100€. The Bundle was advertised as having a defect but from the description i could make out it only had some bios isuess. Got it up and running again within an hour.

Speaking of DDR3, I have 3 Dell Optiplex (Tower) 980's with; i7-860, 8GB(2x4GB) 1333MHz RAM and had 2 of them paired with GT 730 1GB GDDR5 ( I have two of these cards and tried them both, same issue). I was getting some bad frametimes, and frame drops, I thought it was the GPU causing the problems, but recently I purchased two Dell Optiplex (SFF) 790's with; i5-2400, 8GB(2x4GB)1333MHz RAM, both paired with GT 1030 2GB GDDR5's, and to my surprise I was still getting very similar frametimes/frame drops, making these computers unsalable at the moment . Is the problem here the Optiplex's or DDR3 1333MHz. I'm at a loss and can't find answers online.
