CORRECTION FROM LIVE VIDEO – It appears I assumed incorrectly about a PSK in the BIOS. In fact, watching the replay of the video, I was not given the option of what version of Windows 11 I wanted (home or pro). This is because a pre-shared key (PSK) was already embedded in the BIOS. Typically, small PC manufacturers don’t do this. My mistake was assuming iBuyPower was a small manufacturer. They are not, and as a result, they DO in fact have a PSK in the BIOS. My apologies for my assumption during a live, unscripted and unrehearsed video was incorrect and my thanks to the viewers who have made me aware.

how to repair windows 7
You used to be able to sort a category and look under gaming to find real parts. You always had to weed through a little junk but now it's 99.999 percent…RGB! FAST RGB!1 BILLION COLORS RGB
I love these kinds of videos! Also love finding cheap fixer-upper deals on eBay. Great content!
Thanks
I was holding my own until you plugged in that rgb molex connector, SQUIRREL !!!…..
That runs circles around my lowly i3-4160 with a very budget sata ssd maxed out at 3.6GHz.
Well thought out video in showing us of buying a used desktop pc. Learn something new, thank you.
That's amazing – maybe the ram had fallen out before the seller's peeps tested it – and the hdmi port of the I/O was used instead of the GPU – this was an amazing show from start to end. Who bought Power? Carey did! hahahah.
What a great live Carey, congratz. On my mind stayed how great is the opportunity of Microsoft sell own licences for 17 bucks ang go get that market. I never understood why. 17 bucks times billions of people would make great money for Microsoft. Its amazing how they sell windows for more then 100 bucks and let go that Deals licenses market. Just dont get it.
i put a RGB strip on a non RGB computer im really a gamer now lol
I don't buy a PC for just looks especially RGB lights. That's just silly and totally agree with you Carey.
I missed it again
I'm here but I missed the live 😭
I've bought SEVERAL laptops "for parts or not working" on eBay and I have yet to get one that wasn't just a minor fix, the biggest pain was a 10th Gen latitude that had all kinds of issues charging
