This $200 Gaming PC Only Needs ONE UPGRADE

For an OEM prebuilt, I actually really like these Victus PCs. You have a decently powered system from the start, and have a very simple upgrade path to go for. You can even add a 92mm AIO in the back, and a 80-92mm (I think) fan in the front for some additional airflow. You can go a little enthusiast on it, which is not that common for OEM builds. Slap an RX 6650 XT in there, a 92mm AIO, an intake fan, and the extra stick of ram if needed, and you've got yourself a very capable system. Hmm maybe the very limit would be an RTX 4070, if one of the smaller models can fit, and a Ryzen 5700g...

Not a single Victus under $400 anywhere. Well done 😂

I got a "HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop" with a 5600G and RX5500 almost two years ago. At the time it was more like $400. The case has slightly different styling (ribbed design with a green light on the front) However, it looks like an identical motherboard and internal case layout. Maybe worth checking out if you're having trouble finding one of these Victus ones. I upgraded to an RX6600 and it has been running great!

I don't know if I'm being silly, but I can't find a single one for under $400, except one where someone just snagged the 6400 and sold it on

These are ok as a starting point to gaming PCs :yt:

I cant lie it looks super clean too

All are $450+

This is actually exactly what I have! I upgraded to 16 gb or corsair ram. I also put a different cooler on it.

Too be honest, this PC is quite good for light gaming and would be exceptional as a home office PC! Can always add more storage, if one chooses the latter.

Nice build pc bro ❤❤❤

$200 is different from $400

i was JUST thinking about getting this

Where did you find one for $200??? Everywhere I look they are $450+ used and like $600 new

For that system id recommend getting that extra stick of ram definitely. If more storage is needed id get a 2.5 inch ssd. As far as a gpu upgrade id say a 3060 is a good option.

Can u do a vid on how to upgrade to better for a 400 dollar budget

Pcie converter for a ssd is VERY worth it vs a Sata drive. You will only get 3rd gen speeds but that’s 3000mps vs 600

Please post videos about gaming home servers on all price points

Definitely try to upgrade the cpu! If it works, you have a new video. If it doesn't, then you have a new short. Win win

Thank you for finally doing a "you could earn points by watching" video. I skipped all of them.
