Hey, South African here, I run a retail store in SA. That GPU is brand new, but the price is still nuts. It's factory sealed with three year warranty, and the distributor has had that stock since new. They don't drop pricing on old stock, so if you keep hunting you'll also find the likes of brand new MSI GeForce 9800 GT, Abit Radeon X800, Celeron 347, Operton 940, etc, all priced the way they were when released. That 780 Ti is still crazy though, even based on the insane cost pricing. The seller is trying to make a cool 60% markup (108.6% if you go by the "normal" price). It's on Takealot (our equivalent of Amazon) by a third-party seller, ironically called "Daily Deals Online" - LOL!

Linus saying "A seller charging extra for the labor done to build the PC is not right and that the work they put into it doesn't factor into the price" is both true and untrue, depending on the situation. For example, Origin, a company who recently sponsored the channel sells computers at a VERY bad pricing, compared to what others can offer. In fact, LTT even called this out severely back in one of the old "Secret Shoppers" videos from a couple years ago. The fact is, Origin DOES charge extra because of the "assembly time/effort" and such.

@@Steamrick Ah no, i highly doubt that my guy. I literally just finished price charting this exact build via Amazon Germany and without including literally any of the water cooling stuff, the rig is already at 2938 Euros. The GPU ALONE is 1715 euros. From me actually looking directly at pricing online it honestly looks like a deal, not a great one sure, but dude is still selling at a clear undercut to what he paid. The only listing i found on that Distroplate had it at 420 Euros which already bumps that 2938 up to 3358 Euros. And again, that isn't including literally any other water cooling stuff. Sure a completely broken 6950XT might be 500 Euro, Maybe the lowest spec AIR COOLED ones are. But GPUs that come new with waterblocks on them retain value a lot higher and are drastically more expensive from the get go. You don't build NEW PCs with USED PARTS. That isn't how price charting works. For the record, All of these prices, minus the Distroplate as that was on another site.

It's funny that Linus was upset with that old mobo price when I remember in an video from a year or so ago he talked about how cpus never die but the boards do so as sockets get older cpus get cheaper but boards go up in price. I remember this specifically because I had an X99 board and a 5960X. The cpu was still a champ but one of the ram channels and the onboard wifi died, and it wasn't worth replacing the board for these 2 things because x99 boards are now insane prices.
@blackraen 24 дні тому
I think that's why used motherboard prices are so fucked up. You got this whole system but your MB is dead, but only a specific chipset/socket motherboard that isn't made anymore to put it back into service, so MB sellers know that they aren't competing against other motherboard prices, they're competing against the price of replacing all your other components.

Plus the fact that it can be BIOS modded to put a 9900K in it made it a bargain of a board for that CPU ! It even came with a CPU-VRM combo waterblock.

17:49 The weirdly empty PC reminds me a lot of my dad’s PC. He built it a couple years back to replace one he’d been using for about a decade and he enlisted me to help pick parts. I tried to convince him a mid-tower was big enough, but he insisted on getting a huge case because he thought he needed it, apparently forgetting that he wasn’t putting any disk drives or bulky HDDs in it this time around. It looks just like that, a lonely GPU in a giant space. He also went with an i9-12900k and an RTX-3080, which I advised against because he doesn’t play games and mostly just uses his PC for office work, but he wanted the best available I guess. He’s my dad, I love him, but I will never understand why he spent thousands of dollars building a kickass gaming PC when he doesn’t actually use more than maybe 10% of its power.

I once worked with a guy making test equipment. It needed cooling so it had some fans. He didn't provide exhaust so the machines would overheat and kill expensive driver boards. He added moar fans. Machines were extremely loud and very hot. I removed half the fans and added some ductwork. Everyone wanted the quiet and cool version. He never learned.

the computer at the linus mad timestamp was pretty much what mine was a few years ago just because i had it for so long and now its just a few upgrades which is a i7 9700k, a 980ti(i want to go 1080ti soon) and nvme upgrades. But its actually really nice, it runs all my games very well including new games and runs just good in general

the german system shown costs right now, to rebuild, around 2800€... in germany. Like the ebay parts especially are insane. while stuff like an RTX 3070 is at around 350 an RTX 3080 at least 500 sometimes 600€ the 6950 in the video is around 1800€ but to be fair it was around 1000€ a few days ago which is the price I used. People need to under stand this. Germany is fucking expensive and fucking cheap at the same time. Prices can fluctuate like crazy. A 4080 right now is around 1000-1200€ last april it was 1700€ while an 4090 was at around 1900-2000€ at the same time.. making the 4090 a good value card back in those days. CPUs are bonkers. While the US had R5 3600s for 50 usd we had them for 170€ or more. in december last year a fucking 2080 super was worth 550€, now it still goes for around 300€. last gen hardware is still often going for MSRP or more. And to be quite frank. people who spend 800€ 2 years ago for an GPU and used it lightly do simply expect at least 600€ back when selling it. So in short americans pay loudicrous prices for stuff while fully awayre that they do not consider any of it to be worth that much. Otherwise I can not understand how anyone would sell a 3080ti for like 150 usd considering that the upgrade will cost at least 1200 usd probably more.

One thing I have learned about trying to sell used computers, is you can make more money if you tear your build apart and sell the parts separately; even if your price really truly is reasonable - even if you're asking less for the system than you could get the parts for separately on eBay. No matter how many hours of labor you put into a system, it is worthless when it comes to selling.

3:15 , that PSU is not surprising to me, in the place where I live plenty of "PC builders" put the most sketchy and cheapest PSU in the configs, and sometimes choose to cut prices where is the worst and add it where is pointless for a cheap PC For example, someone asked for a build of around 500-600 dollars my build was: R 5 5600 (80-100) RX 6700 (non XT) (230) A cheap motherboard that was 30-40 dollars stock cooler 16 GB RAM 3600 DDR 4 (60) Seasonic non-modular PSU, 600-650w (50-70) A cheap computer Chase with 3 coolers An SSD 250 GB+ HDD 1 TB Someon's else build: R5 5600x (120-140) A motherboard MSI (560 dollars) 16 GB RAM 3200 MHz (60 dollars) RX 6600 (non xt) The crapyes PSU for 550W (AQIRYs, for 40 dollars) Same chase as me 1 TB NVME SSD So it had a slower CPU a slower GPU, a power supply that would give a new meaning to RGB (Rig is Gonna Blow), and less storage (faster but when u want to install games like APEX you would end up with 4 games) and a motherboard worth 560 dollars for the AM4 socket which is already at it's end so in any future upgrade that MBO will go When I make a bould I would rather cut on" Storage (because it can be upgraded in the future very easily and cheaply) Motherboard Chase CPU (but keep in the same gen, because between R 5500 AND R5 5600X for example is as best 10 fps difference which can be gained back with a better GPU) Never cut on PSU (because a good one can survive well for 10-15 years, and take part in future builds and upgrades especially if it gives more than the build needs) And GPU, as long the CPU does not bottleneck it, is the most prominent part and even a small difference (from 6600 to 6700) can prove to have some good fps gain and advantages on longer time

I have a small video idea suggestion if anyone even reads these. It’s a bit self serving as my reason for it is my oculus quest doesn’t charge while plugged into the PC, and using it to game(believe this is a power supply issue, or the motherboard won’t supply the usb-c with sufficient power). Have the team looked into powered usb hubs, and other accessories that might help with the issue? Would suggest if this idea is passed around that the team talks about their favorite accessories in general for kinda niche problems.

13:50 regarding the Pricing: You have to remember 19% VAT for germany (Text of the ad-listing). So that puts it roughly into 2500 / 2600 bucks. Plus Watercooling is expensive AF over here. Not really THAT unreasonable - but you can get it cheaper if you hunt for it.
