A man didn't change his cooler since 2010, this is what happened to his colon
did he sell it?

My friend has a saying that goes something like this:
An axe will last forever as long as you keep replacing its head and handle.
David triggers broom
@ When you brick your axe by forgetting to factory reset the handle prior to installation
question is if that ship of theseus is still the same ship when you have replaced every single thing.
@ calm down faldegast; Ive broken the warranty seal way back in 2010 already, you can not be held responsible for any damages done, rest assured
@ haha "there's an axe for that"
Came to watch about PC upgrade. Ended up learning programming, biology and chemistry.

Did not expect a simple CPU upgrade video to turn into a biology lesson. Nicely made video
It's more in a lesson in Computer Science with an analogy towards biology, but still cool.

Did he just go from talking about upgrading his processor to giving a biology lesson?
he even included a lesson about programming, that was a 3in1 video
Nice, i was looking for this comment
i left this running in the background, then all of a sudden you started talking about biology lol
I just heard of him explaining object oriented design with biology, technically biology, but mostly because he's trying to explain a programming paradigm with a real life example.
I had to pause and see the title of the video to check if i was still watching the same video.. Then checked the comment section to see if other's thought the same LOL!!
IKR, omg loool, i cant believe how this realistic it was i thought youtube glitched
Yet the video subject is a CPU upgrade..
Anyone can do the CPU upgrade and run benchmarks.. The ability to and reason why we can upgrade are much more important than the upgrade itself. This is my outsider's perspective, and I'm grateful I am able to share my thoughts with you here. Have a great week!
PS, for the developers out there, don't forget to implement Reproduce() in LivingObject... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Chubbyemu Nice 👍👌
I'm a recent watcher and subscriber but you're video's are uniquely different and I applaud you for that I hope it works out in your favour. Keep the good videos coming!
Adam Landsberg The ending was emotional.
I have that chip,but recently upgraded to a ryzen 1700. It really shines when you overclock it. I pushed it to 4 ghz with a 980 ti. The only thing is it uses tons of power. Its sits at 11k in firestrike physics score and 14k with a 4ghz overclock.
+Chubbyemu If you overclock that X5650 to 4Ghz (can certainly do 3,8Ghz at least on that cooler at ~1.3v), it will most likely make your computer last those 3 years you were talking about. Damn, had you OC'ed that 930 to 4Ghz and you would be rocking current Core i5 CPUs stock level of performance already! I know this because, I have a 920 C0 from 2008 still kicking, as well, and I've seen the benchmark scores it produces @4Ghz. That's why Overclocking exists in the first place: to squeeze the most performance possible out of an outdated chip; I don't overclock a chip that is a brand new product. Why should I? Is the fastest already. But I do start overclocking when that chip gets replaced on the market by a new, better and faster chip
I suddenly feel the need to hug my PC.
mee 2 dude!
Damn, me too. lol

A CPU upgrade video with an Object-Oriented Biology twist. This was a first for me. Nice to see someone with a focus on the meaning of the world, not just feeds and speeds of hardware being installed. Entertaining, thought provoking, insightful, and a little quirky. Great job!
it got a little bit emotional at the end.
well i also have emotional connection with my pc too!
Programming these days is such a mess....Just because the hardware gets better they maake their software worse but it can still perform better because the hardware is so much better. No respect these days in programming for constraints and optimizations.
It's the reason I stick to QBASIC-like programming languages.
there's something intimate about building your own pc, and the fact that you actively try to make that relationship last longer with upgrades is almost romantic
my computers i build are like my children to me. each one with different parts handed down from different builds with different personalities.
since i don't have any real children
Zac Deculing exactly what i wanted to say. I almost cried 😓😢
Absolutely. I hate waste, so I often try to milk my existing motherboards for everything they're capable of; the most amount of RAM, the fastest CPU with the most cores, but eventually it's comparable to decorating the Titanic.

This video turned out way deeper than I expected. lol. Great work! :) Just subbed.
Did you just use animal biology to explain object-oriented programming?
As a conservation bio person dating a software engineer, this gave me mad feels.
A+ thats all i can say.. its so refreshing to get a review of an entirely different caliber then the standard testing/benchmarking.. and needles to say it gives people a very good idea where they stand with their current systems by being able to compare their hardware to current generation demands and workload performances.
Went from a tech video to a video essay. I wasn't expecting that but it worked damn good.

Your transition into the topic of upgradibility was beautiful.
Hey there - I'm a big fan of your medical case study videos. As a layperson they are always opportunities to learn without a barrage of overwhelming information. My day job is building & operating the live video CDN at Twitch, so I get the expected questions about PCs from friends & families. Your tech videos have been a great resource to send them to for answers. I hope you are able to continue shooting them. Thanks a bunch!
It's crazy how a currently $20 server CPU from 2010 is faster than an originally $300 high end consumer CPU from 2010. Although I saw it for $65. Server CPUs become much cheaper than consumer CPUs over time because big companies are selling them in bulk because they upgraded to newer CPUs. Other components don't really become that much cheaper to be really useful. Often a lower end modern component is faster and uses less electricity while costing the same.
its a workhorse cpu... xeon's are great at work but suck at gaming :-\
Nothing crazy. The "currently $20" originally costed $600-$1000.
The LGA771 platform was flawed with FBDIMM power usage (15W each FBDIMM), LGA1366 platform has 40W chipset overhead compared to the next generation chipsets. My PC can't consume less than 100W@wall while similar ivy bridge i5 idles at under 60W.
The fastest Core 2 Extreme (X9775) was $1500 at release and is a bit slower than an Athlon 200GE which is available for 50 bucks new right now.
@@harleyme3163 actually, if the cores are the same generation at the same clockspeed will perform the same
they're originally even more expensive... the reason they're so cheap are because they're sold used from servers.
i honestly think this guy deserves more subs and view. He takes tech to a different level of deep. this channel is unique and deserves more spotlight
Agreed. :) Just clicked on it on a whim, and was quite blown away with how deep it got. Instant sub. :)
Agreed. He deserves a channel that keeps growing, which it has -- just slowly. Shows it will last a long time too ...
dbf Emails no longer slow, hes at 300k now
Che-Deem Beharry I think yall take it too deep.
When you officially retire and stop using this PC it deserves a ceremony or a funereal of some sort.
I expect him to put this pc in a closet somewhere and use it as a seed box.
Or he could just sell it on craigslist.
WorthlessDeadEnd when this pc is retired it's probably gonna be 9-10 years old already, i doubt anyone would go that far back for used parts, he'd be better off just keeping it as a memento

What a great video TT
I was going to give you a hard time about checking the BIOS for custom settings before swapping CPU's, but then realized that I have done it myself. Great video man. I'm running a OC'ed X3470 myself (8 year old 1156 Xeon). Still going strong.
Man, this is the first video of yours I watched and you got yourself a sub! It's curious how we take these things for granted yet PCs are on of those rare devices that really give a lot of bang for buck in the long term and last quite some time. Not many electronic everyday devices last as much and can work properly for the majority of that time-span. People say that desktop PCs are dead and they praise mobile devices but no smartphone/tablet will last that much (let alone work decently after 3 or so years), and they are not upgrade-able, and they really aren't even productive, they're mostly devices for consuming content, while PCs can do all sorts of things. Speaking as a photographer, my PC is the essential part of the whole process. You can have all the cameras and lenses but without a PC it's mostly useless if you care about the end product. Mine is almost 4 years old and it hasn't skipped a beat yet.
It is insane how amazing these Xeon's are if you are still rocking the lga 1366 motherboard. I just did a similar build for my secondary pc and it does well for rendering, gaming, and streaming. With a 4ghz overclock you can do amazing things with this cpu!
TechWithRy could you overclock a Xeon?
These xeons work in enthusiast motherboards that support overclocking. So yes you can overclock them. I have my x5650 currently clocked at 4ghz stable.
wow, That is surely amazing, I have a ThinkPad workstation but I cannot overclock it.
It is most likely because of the motherboard. An x5650 requires an x58 chipset mobo to overclock it.
i hope your right, i just bought one, can't wait to install it. been on my i7 950 for so long now, willing to give this small upgrade a chance
Searched for short biology lecture.... received a life lesson. Not disappointed 👍🏻
God I miss having a PC... Or a laptop right now. Btw, great video! Love your content, from medical issues that feed my hypochondriac self to techie or fitness/health-related things. All beautifully presented! Thanks!
I have been scouring through the internet for a video to show appreciation for old beast like this and at last found yours. Youre just ascertaining people as long as your PC plays the game you wanted to play and does what you wanted do with it, it will last you for a really2 long time. Good video bruh, you get a sub from me. Wish many pc gaming channels could follow your lead into this but i guess its wishfull thinking.
I appreciated this video on so many levels.
You always have the most innovative videos. Keep it up!
A very wholesome and nice video that teaches you to appreciate your computer. Thank you.
This is a stellar video. Kudos!
how 2 overclock hooman, pls halp.
find a shady guy in an alley and buy drugs
cramming is equivalent to overclocking, increase in performance but u may die early because of stress
I dont know how about u, but ill rather kill 20-50usd CPU yearly if its supposed to be even 40% faster.
My Frein i will teach how over clock www.techradar.com/how-to/computing/how-to-overclock-your-cpu-1306573 www.pcgamer.com/how-to-overclock-your-graphics-card/ There i help fellow frein
Ok heres an some help. Go into your bois change the clock speed of the you cpu/ram in increments untill it crashes. Then what you do is reset the bios (Take out the battery on the motherboard for 30 secconds and put it back in) And go to the settings right before you crashed. For your Graphics card use programns like MSI Afterburner, and its again trail and error.
How did it get from upgrading a pc to the meaning of life haha. Awesome video!
What a great chanel! Thanx duude!
Very thoughtful and eloquently presented, as usual. I'm in the middle of upgrading/maxing out my pc too. Stayed away from $5k HP Z840! Even an extra year or two is worth it, because there will be newer ones coming out, making the current latest models cheaper by then.
Another excellent video. I'm really glad you have your computer, so you're able to share your content with the internet. Thanks. : D
Did you see how dirty the heat sink was
I suffered with an overclocked piii until 2014. It had the best of what ever I could scrounge over time. It still got the job done until I eventually upgraded to ssd and a cheap 6 core amd bundle. Great video.
Good message. Great video.
this video is so powerful.... i'm holding back tears
It’s been a little over 3 years since then, how has it held up
Great video! I still use my 9 years old PC. I upgraded it a lot of time, but It still keeps the main components.
nice video, enjoyed it, you lost me after water, so i skipped ahead to 3 year more part. But i been thinking this my self for some older desktops we have. Thanks

I've been keeping my pc going for 5 years. In fact, it's still doing fine with an upgrade of RAM that I bought on eBay. I'd say another year or two at most but, it's incredible value for money.
4k is pointless but so is life so who cares. No doubts we will all need to keep jumping through hoops until people eventually realise it's only an improvement on huge screens. Sorry, I just had to throw my two cents in.
I originally bought a 2.8 ghz, core 2 quad literally in 2006 or 2007 and used it till 2 years ago...the wife uses this machine today with a newer ssd and finds the machine still very functional and snappy. For myself, I upgraded and replaced with a intel setup 2.5 years ago and last year dumped that for a new ryzen 6100...love the chip for what I use my PC for...I do not know if I'll get 7 or 8 years out of it, but it is nice to grab something that may no longer be the fastest, but it's still nice to see it functional and a contender. So, perhaps when you finally make a big, new upgrade, you'll migrate to a thread ripper or something along those lines...nice video...and you had a pretty pumped setup back in the day...cheers.
Lol epic video... Epic rethoric about cheap upgrades. Thanks for sharing. Very (in)formative too.
I have had the same broom for 20 years and it's just as good as the day I bought it. admittedly I have fitted 5 new heads and replaced the handle 3 times but it's the same great broom that I first brought home in 1997. sounds a bit daft doesn't it, but it sounds the same as your 7 year old PC that you say is the same one that you built in 2010 BUT you have swapped out the graphics card and added more RAM and SSDs. and now you have swapped the CPU and bundled it all into a new case, there's not much of the original PC left. just like my 30 YO broom eh?
sydmichel which can be said of life. Your cells divide and die all the time, even brain cells. With all the changes that happen in your body, when do you stop being you? Were you ever really you to begin with?
In this, the only thing to not change is the motherboard. Maybe it's an entirely different computer if that changes. Also he changed those parts gradually over time, just like the cells in your body. So if you are you, then this is still the same computer.
I'm fine with 1080p, and I would probably still be running 1680x1050, if that monitor had not broken down. Especially when it comes to resolution, I don't quite see how the benefit outweighs the requirements anymore. The jump from 320x200 CGA to 640x480 VGA was nice, but 4k doesn't make all that much of a difference to me compared to full HD, neither does 144Hz, neither does HDR. And don't get me wrong, those things are all nice, but I can get on just fine without them.
And except for screen resolution, computer development has slowed down significantly. A PC bought in '96 was outdated two or three years later, but this is not the case anymore today. This computer you have there could probably last me another 3 years. Of course, I do not stream or make youtube videos for an audience that may have the bestest screens on the market at all time and expects the content to look the part. :)
I still rock 1680x1050 and I love it. 16:10 is awesome and the lower resolution gives a nice fps boost
I've got a MacBook and it's already 4 years old and showing no signs of age. I fully expect this laptop to last me 10 more years with minor repairs.
Mark M Macbooks really differ in quality. In my experience they are really durable when you handle them carefully AND they don't have discrete GPUs. Because discrete GPUs really suffer from apples bad thermal management:
-Radeon X1600 had more fails then usual
-Nvidia Bug
-Radeon 6xxx had more fails then usual
It's a 2014 MacBook Pro Retina 15" A1398 11,2. Specs i7 4770HQ, 16gb ddr3, 256gb pci ssd, Intel Iris Pro GPU. I'm not afraid to tear it apart and replace anything that breaks on it. I have the motherboard schematic so I can fix any logic issues if it starts to fail. I will keep this laptop for as long as possible. At this point I'm getting frustrated with Sierra and dread upgrading to the next version that I know will just include more bugs and glitches. I'm going to upgrade to lubuntu as soon as I can get access to a fast enough internet connection.

I have almost your exact same processor (mine's the i7 960 instead of the 930) so that was very interesting to see your benchmark scores. Looks like probably not worth the hassle even if it is cheap.
What a beautiful love letter to the PC.
In 2012 I made my old socket 771 server into my gaming PC. it's still going strong, although I changed the CPU's in 2016 (dual socket btw) Also I changed my case into the Phantaks you have now (supports EATX)
Seriously you're spending more on electricity to keep that old rust than replacing it with a core2 based system at the very least. The 771 platform is now entirely obsolete and considered a space heater. I'm not hating on your system, it's just not economically viable to keep turned on.
I have still pretty great workloads. a core 2 based system can't really processes it well and a modern Pentium solution is also out of the question. At least I need a modern i5 4xxx or Ryzen 5 cpu to get the calculations afloat.
Mark the 771 and the 775 are more or less equivalent sockets for server and desktop respectively. There are mods for using a 771 based CPU in 775 based boards...A core2 is not an upgrade it's a lateral move or a downgrade depending on where the CPU comes in in the span of the lifespan of the socket.
Seeing this video 3 years after, I just can wonder.... Did the computer survived 'till today?
This is the best video i have seen ever regarding how much time can you get out your PC, every other channel talks about upgrade and low buget gaming buut no one talks about buying a pc to last 6-8 years minimun like your pc did, i love introducing every one to PC gaming and quallity gaming and bugget comes handy but low buget is not for a pc that will last long and this video i will share like an example of how a good investment can be to buy a really good pc (not buyin the lastest i7, buying the best motherboard and colling system or like 16gb of ram in one stick instead of 4x4gb of ram even if 16 is more expensive, that one 16 stick will let you upgrade to 64 in the future even if ddr6 is out)
A computer put a man into its case. This is how it's reality was changed forever.
Just clean that PC if you wanna serve you well... ;-)
This channel is a real anomaly my dude I love it.
Watching this video was major deja vu. I built my last pc in 2010 (just like you). I upgraded to the same Xeon CPU (just like you), I used the same exact case and motherboard (just like you), I have 24 GB ram (just like you). Difference is that I paid a used server part company $200 for my processor around 2015. So, up until this year I used it for everything and it has been more than adequate for all my needs. Most games I play are old ones like Age of Empires II and Unreal Tournament GOTY... I only built a new pc (May 2018) in order to be able to play Star Citizen which was unplayable due to CPU bottlenecking with ole' faithful. The 2010 built may be aged, but it's solid. It got me through my first years out of high school and all the way through first decade of my career!
You changed CPUs but didn't clear your custom BIOS settings? That's upgrade 101, man.
Den Tyngaste um no it doesn't. Lol. Not always.
He probably did after it failed to POST several times.
I made the same mistake when I upgraded my SSD in my upgrade video: ruclips.net/video/pwNJto6VWE8/видео.html
Although, because all I did was swap out the HDD for SSD, I expected the BIOS not to change drive positions.
Agreed. Reading comments to see if someone else mentioned it... That's a facepalm mistake.
first thing before u swap cpu is to upgrade bios to newest ,,,,
X5650 user here!
and X5670 user too
Nice vid.
Did almost exactly this, X 5650 (£25) with same motherboard, you should overclock to see real benefits ! If you have a good socket 1366 board this upgrade is a no brainer. This combo could run 4k with a better gpu not too much bottlenecking, don't forget it has triple channel ram. The only thing I really miss is decent sata 3 connections but overall it's a beast !
