Building a PC with only broken parts… what could go wrong? Alex and the team gamble $2,600 on non-working CPUs, GPUs, RAM, motherboards, SSDs, and coolers to see if they can resurrect enough pieces to build functioning gaming computers. Was it worth it?

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
28:37 I just watched Linus invade his video now he’s in LTT’s 🙏🏻
Should have just went shopping at Newegg
😊
I think it's cool that modern computers are built out of Unobtainium…
If it didn't pass a memtest86 test all RAM is dead to me, even new out of the box. Have had to return brand new ram failing this test.
6:54 Cougars I know didn't make that sound.. 🤣🤣
Can't even afford the broken parts 😫
18:22 someone had a bad time, sounded like a baby.
I used ram module without one contact land. I draw it with a pencil
That bios flasher needs a mod to be reliable. It's outputting too high a voltage, which leads to a risk of random component frying. It's just lifting one pin and running one wire.
26:51 That is why I already have 4 M.2 SSDs and 3 HDDs in my machine xD
i have fixed a den pin on the mother pred with an old pin from cpu and it work {it was broken}
how don't you recognize kubuntu?!
I remember back in the X58 days I was saving up for an X58A-UD7 board, the top tier board from Gigabyte at the time. I found a DoA one for $20, figured out who the wholesaler was, got the original receipt from them and sent it back under warranty – boom $400 motherboard for free.
Also I miss the dies when $400 was the best motherboard money could buy.
I tried updating the bios on a gigabyte aorus ultra gaming motherboard to use a ryzen 7 5800xt and ended up bricking the mobo
stop ruining things you can buy what ever you want
I'm a simple man, I see Dan, I hit like.
I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I really hope they didn't necro a PSU.
If it just luck, then this makes no sense to do.
"Somebody Linus'd this one." 😂😂
wtf happened to crystaldiskmark what is this anime crap?
more Dan! more Dan!
Having Dan is so refreshing. I love this part necromancy. Necromancers are just late healers.
09:57 I would like a Dan, please.
Vancouver weather must be the weirdest weather. Dan and Adam dressed in warm jumpers, and David is in shorts and a t-shirt… I mean…
With Unknown RAM.
Use a program called Memtest86+>
It will stress the RAM and if it is faulty in some way, it will show it.
Its also good for testing RAM after you've overclocked it or just enabled XMP.
Remember, XMP is an overclock and just cause those chips can do 7000Mhz, does not mean they will not have some kind of fault.
the cooler master v8 cpu cooler!
Was this a 100% Linus-free episode? Well done. So glad you made a video on this idea too! It seemed like the next obvious step from the fixing parts series, impressed you got anything working!
Alex is getting the linus virus of dropping things
28:18 the hair looks like it came with the hat. Love that you guys put this up rn. One of the buildings I work out of is clearing out old equipment from a previous tenant. I've managed to get a nass. Several terabytes of working storage, and I salvaged two of like a hundred think pads, only checked the two. Between this and oblivion, I feel like a teenager again.
Now watch as the price of broken PC parts spike on the 2nd hand market.
14:50 "No, Master Besser! Please don't turn it off!"
14:47 D: o7
Brothers – do a follow up with dumbest tech ever lived @SalemTechsperts.
Necro 2.0!
Paying more than 50 for each of these dead components is crazy stupid
15:09
I love the fact that it's a verb at this point.
8:43 yeah i figured it was dead idk why they didn't fully test it first before jumping to a conclusion?
