Can't believe I built a $500 PC for Shadowlands!

So here it is: https://youtu.be/lfLE3RIwM1s

I even did Live/Shadowlands Beta FPS testing (flying in Bastion) at different graphical levels.

Good write up.

Have you ever tested the difference between nvidia and amd cards specifically in WoW?

For example, generally speaking, an RX 570 beats a 1060 3 or 6gb in most modern games, 5600xt > 2060, 5700xt > 2060 super etc.

Some games prefer different architectures, for example FF14 just prefers Nvidia across the board.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone compare them before and would be an interesting test to see which this game prefers.

Great stuff! I did not expect to see it perform that well. This is a good place to point people who are looking for a super low budget build.

I’m glad the nail got fixed, new color looks great - and three different outfits in the same video! :raising_hand_woman: Loved it. :slight_smile:

Yea it was filmed over 3 different days xD. Yea my nail popped off during a video lol.

MC can have some awesome open box deals for cheaper equipment got a really good deal upgrading my server from a GT710 to a 1650 super. Wow runs really good even at 1440p.

I can’t even get a $500 video card for Shadowlands. Not at 4k and decent frame rate.
