    I'm so glad I found this video and your older one. my laptop which cost me 3k is dying from heat and a lack of new parts, so, I've been wracking my brain thinking if it's possible to make a desktop from it seeing as I have a rtx 2080 and i9. and you've just proven its doable and relatively straight forward too. Thanks for the thoroughly well explained video!

      I had the same issue, thermal throttling everywhere on everything, games I shoulda stomped not running even relatively well etc etc. Cracked my laptop open to see if maybe dust had blocked the exhaust. Nope! It was some loose rubber bit from manufacturing that got stuck into the fan, only allowing one to turn. Dropped something like 12C instantly when I fixed it

I need a new dc input soldered on with that heat gun solder, but parts are already scarce for it after such a short time. Its a ridiculous. And its a laptop that shouldn't exist to be fair 😂

    Mad engineer here:
    I did the same layout years ago but without using motherboard risers, by directly screwing mobo into .3 mm thinner mdf board. Those are necessary only with conductive background, which you won't require on an insulative woodboard. Saves you a lot of time and space ;) (see what I did there?)
    With that said, thanks for the video, the virtual ground circuit was something I never thought of!

    • @XavierBetoN

      BTW, I came out with another solution for the audio in time:
      Instead of using the usb virtual ground circuit, I used no amplifier, and used best sounding speakers with a conic enhancer, while using Debian Linux with 200% audio output, which was audible, considering the system had only 1 x 140mm fan.

    There's kind of a big problem with this. BIOS settings can get reset to defaults for various reasons (dead battery, BIOS upgrade, BIOS can enter failsafe mode if there is hardware issues, user changing the settings, etc...).
    If the power or screen settings change it would effectively brick the entire system unless you plug the original keyboard back in. Would have been interesting to look at the keyboard connector or any microchip on it and try to just solder switches for the screen/power. Could also have done some others like volume. Also you would have made the system totally portable. At the very least I would hide the keyboard inside the backpanel for emergency maintenance (otherwise it will get lost).

    This is what a real tech geek would do to that machine:
    Tear off the screen, replace keyboard with new, if chasis is too bad, don't worry, just get yourself a $300+ custom-built mechanical keyboard. Next, a weird 16:10 monitor from 2010, pair of HD 600's, put it all into a drawer and install Gentoo on it.

    The subwoofer in the wooden case is genius for acoustical reasons. Bass gets amplified in wood since the wood resonates and essentially makes the whole of the wood a part of the woofer.
    That's a trick I used to great effect when I was in the barracks and couldn't fit a big sound system in. Just positioned the woofer in the back middle of the underside of my desk so that the walls of the desk made it seem like I had something more expensive than the small sub woofer I had.

    There's another reason for MDF being a superb choice of material - which you may or may not be aware of.
    MDF is akin to a light grain wood in density. As a result, it has some good resonant qualities that is why it's used to make speaker cabs. It's also cheeper than pine or actual wood...
    Interesting build.

    I swear this guy keeps impressing me with his engineering skills even though I'm pretty good at repairing electronic devices or upgrading them but doing my own DIY that's where I seriously lack in that area that takes time that I don't have😢 so I made it easy on myself I bought a 2020 HP pavilion all in one Windows 10 desktop I can also use a external GPU for gaming because it has a built-in USB-C thunderbolt port which is required in order to use a external GPU

    It's the best DIY channel I've seen so far. Finally someone who's making things that can really be used rather than some useless stuff which doesn't even look good. As I have access to a few dead laptops, I'm gonna try to make something similar. BTW thanks for idea with changing screen settings in BIOS, I didn't know that they are there.

      Sorry I didn't see these replies. I have successfully taken apart all the electronics out of the casing. I ran some tests to see everything works fine just like in the video. Instead of building a compartment and also mounting the old laptop screen to essentially make a monitor. I just hooked up the electronics to an old tv with hdmi cable.
