  • My D-Frame build was one of the most powerful PCs you could build in 2018... so how does it compare to todays "mainstream" PC tech?

      @@kevinerbs2778 When it worked it was on par at best, but like Jay said, Nvidia's support for SLI was a joke, and the cost of entry to SLI was almost always higher than just investing that money towards a higher tier or faster single card.

      Whats really crazy is if you think about it processors 12 years ago were around 100-200 dollars for the top of the line maybe 300. Now its 700-900. Graphics cards like the 1080 was 399, but no you can buy cards that put the 1080 to shame. i.e 6600x, 2070 for like same price. But you can actually double or even tripple the perfromance if you spend 1,000 on graphics card. Unfortunatley even a ryzen 5 5600x = 150 dollars. Released 4-5 years ago. Building a system today will run you around 700-800 dollars. Where 2012 it would of been around 500-600.

    Im not sure if i'm the only one, but if you do revive this build I think you should do a modern version. rtx 3090s and 3090 ti's still support SLI and with the return of threadripper consumer chips you can still fit 8 sticks of ram in. It would be really impractical and Insanely expensive but it would still pay homage to the previous build while adapting it for more modern times

      High end? CPUs were stagnated in most cases deliberately to gatekeep higher cores for higher prices. Nvidia if they wanted they could have passed efficiency cost savings down to the consumer but they chose not to. Prices have been inflated higher for greater profits and since people kept paying higher prices... they kept going up. The same applies to thousand dollar smartphones.... which have no msd card slot and headphone jack....

    I remember this build. I was just getting into building PCs and was consuming everything i could, even though this was well outside of my budget and skillset.

    Jay, Im not even kidding, this is beautiful. It would outperform my current system I use for orchestral music writing, plus, is gorgeous. I used to feel like PCs were about form, stick it somewhere, use it, who cares what it looks like, but this system sings to me in the way it looks. Sure, the specs might be dated, but for my meager needs, outside of needing more memory (I need 64 gb minimum, pref 128), this would do everything I need and more, plus the dual SLI setup would make my preferred reverb engine, MIR 3D Pro, run like a dream

    While _you_ might not have been into 3D printing in 2018, I would consider it both cheap and mainstream back then. We started getting 4k resin printers, monochrome screens and some nicer features on the midsize printers back then in the $5-800 range (considerable cheaper than the commercial models in the $2k+ for an entry level), and you could build a 48" tall delta printer for $400.
    2007 on the other hand, it was still pretty niche.
    Add: In PC history, I had SLI 400 series GPUs and GPU rendering in real time was in its infancy. There, made it relevant to the channel. 😁

    I remember the first SLI rig I had was 3DFX Voodoo 2 babe back in 1998! Back then SLI was Scan Line Interleave.

    Man this was a blast from the past. Right when I started watching you, because I was planning a pc build. I held out for a year and ended up going Ryzen 3000 series then and still rocking that computer. I keep thinking I’m going to do another but it’s still going strong after a gpu swap.

    Always nice to look back at SLI being popular to have in your set up compared to now.

    I'm impressed that your old setup was able to boot up and operate decently despite being idle for years. It's amazing how these old systems can still work somewhat efficiently, even though the components are obsolete.

    I mean, what's stopping you from bringing back this era of youtube videos? Doing nuts builds, or fun unique builds, etc?
    Like, there's so much more variety in cases, more manufacturers (even if some are just 011 clones lmao), there's so many cases from the past few years, with all the unique blocks and systems that I think it could probably make a comeback

    This takes me back. My first gaming rig was one I built in a clear case, 2x GeForce FX cards (I think?). I can't even remember, cause it was over 20 years ago. I learned several valuable lessons from building that rig. The most important: being an early adopter of new tech sucks. Jeez did SLI suck when it was just released. The gain from SLI was most noticeable from the power-consumption.

    Until 2 weeks ago, my daughter was still using my old Pc from 2013 with a i5 Ivy- Bridge, delidded and under an Ek Waterblok direct die cooling. Had benchmarked that CPU to 5.2 GHz, and was running it stable over all the years on 4.9 GHz The system was also running with 2 AMD HD7870 in Crossfire, i am still amazed how long that pc was running nicely, greetings from Belgium
