Upgrading In-Law's PC - Video Card and Windows 11 Install - Part 2 #ryzen #asrock #computerbuild
My father-in-law was finally ready for an upgrade. For some reason, he really likes this Emachines case and it's been a mainstay of his computing setup for the last 15 years. This is also going to be a quantum leap as it will have Windows 11 Professional as well as a much newer copy of Microsoft Office. In this video, I'll be taking the old machine apart and installing a new motherboard from ASRock, a Ryzen 3 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 250GB SSD.
Of course, he does not need much power as he is not a gamer. Just boring office-type work with occasional web browsing. As far as why a B450, Ryzen 3 and DDR4 memory? I had a $400 budget to work with.
I wish I read the box and listing more carefully. Otherwise, I would have realized that this Ryzen 3 4100 does not have a built-in graphics. Had to quickly find a decent and inexpensive graphics card. Also, the Windows 11 Media is the same one made with Rufus for the AMD Ryzen 7 Framework laptop from a previous video. It already had been setup to bypass the checks for 4GB of RAM, a TPM and Secure Boot. This way it could be used on machines that don't meet those arbitrary requirements.
