The old forum may be closed, all our hope may be gone, But I still believe in Scrapyard Wars!

Let's bring life to the old series, the greatest series on the channel...

SCRAPYARD WARS!

They've done what, 7 seasons now? 

If Game of Thrones is anything to go by, we wouldn't even want season 8 after episode 3. 

Fine you want the PSU tier list? Have the PSU tier list: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-103/

I had a good idea for it. It would basically be to build the most compact PC. With a budget of $750US or CA. So, using the normal style of price per dollar and then comparing that to the actual size of the machine, we can calculate a score that gives more advantage to smaller PCs. But as a twist, they have to buy one or more parts from another source that is not Craigslist, and they get two full days, totaling to 48 hours.

Low profile 1050ti or 1650.
R5 3600
MITX B450

They don't even need to buy used parts if the budget is $750 USD.

I'm still saying a home server or poweruser station would be good. We've seen a ton of consumer gaming rigs...

I would like to see them compete against young new YouTubers who focus on used bargain hunting. Like kristofer yee and toasty bros. Or maybe go to Australia and compete against Brian from TechYesCity
