Yeah
Lmao this might be my favorite comment ever 😂 this channel is just amazing
There is an exception to every rule.
Never thought I'd see CS2 on a VHS tape
i believe the cs2 frame rate being so bad is because the bots are utilizing gpu resources... resources the gpu needs all of just to do the graphics. let alone the thinking for the bots.
also bet it was thermal throttling To HELL..
it is because of the upscaling option that he set to performance
POV: You're a professional Counter Strike player
@@homelessEh he joined a online match to not load the bots himself
Bro starts typing in "X" in the search bar so confidently. I could never 💀
I would. I use Firefox private tabs with uBlock Origin and ProtonVPN for my business. Both are free. It does not cost money to jack off without worries, only a small amount of one-time effort. Make sure to turn them both off afterwards and tell your FBI agent goodnight.

Hey! I'm the one that put that archive up! I'm glad I had the foresight to do that. Most of these devices got sold to hospitals and healthcare centers in Colorado and other major cities. The sandforce SSDs die when you submit them to the usual DOD wipe resellers are forced to do to be legit. Back when I made that archive, Steam was just getting ready a month prior to kill XP support, and I was sitting there, with an Xi3 X5A, complete with 2GB of RAM, an Athlon64 X2 3400e, and mobility HD3650 graphics... and a 16GB Sandisk SSD because I was broke. it was AMAZING that they even had XP drivers to begin with, but even to this day I always wanted one of the higher end boxes to play with. I even thought about using the box as a makeshift home server with the eSATA port hooked to an external enclosure that never materialized.
A little bit of background, the CEO was retired military turned business tycoon and I have no doubt in my mind that the end game was to make ruggedized small modular PCs for the military as well as "upgradeable" PCs for the consumer market-- why else would the sides be removable after all? especially the port end... wouldn't have been hard to make one whole board with all the inputs and outputs a military application needed to survive, after all. He had ambitions set too high for maximum bank. And that's not to even note that if memory serves, one of the other ventures run by him was a military contracting company of some flavor.
In the end I'm glad the files I painstakingly downloaded and archived helped someone with a model much newer than mine.
Thankyou
Thanks man!
You saved the Hypercube.
The case is made from extruded aluminium, and the machine has a design that's pretty common for that. Extruded aluminium cases are used because they are basically the cheapest metal case you can make.
It's the hidden heroes like you that make preserving and archiving our digital history possible.
I love how bringus’s biggest challenge by far isn’t getting a game to run on a literal pregnancy test, but installing any os onto an actual honest to god computer.
Not only that, one made specifically for steam.
"actual computer" is a bit of a stretch
It be like that, once it took me 3 hours to install windows 10 onto a laptop that came with windows 10
When I was doing IT ~10 years ago in a school, these were our "computer lab" machines. Just Vesa mount em to the back of the monitor, and they were pretty slick installs. Also, fun fact! The chassis isn't grounded -at all-. I'm a static-y person, and I killed probably a dozen of these things by pressing the power button and zapping them with static.
Whoa! The Xi3 out in the wild! My dad actually worked on these twelve years ago, I think. I thought the concept was really cool. It was supposed to be a modular system that could be upgraded with additional storage and compute units later on by just plugging the units together.
The model you have doesn't have the ePCIe port (literally "external PCI Express", like a thunderbolt port before thunderbolt was more than just Apple), and that port was supposed to be the new extensibility, rather than needing to open up the unit to add components.
I anyone was wondering what he did at CISC (original company who created this), he did the BIOS using cutting edge UEFI framework, so that BIOS update link in the description probably has his fingerprints on it.
Cool stuff!
I'd love to see this machine with OG SteamOS compared to one of the newer SteamOS flavors.
However considering the fact he could not get any flavor of Linux to install I wonder if og steam os will even install?
nah, put MacOS on it LOL
if it will let him

Seeing a "Trinity" APU brought me back to my early PC gaming days. Rocked an A10-5700 which had 2 cores, 4 threads, 10GB of RAM (no idea why they added that extra 2GB stick) and the best integrated graphics I had ever seen. I could play Minecraft without being stuck to Low view distance! Then I popped in a 750Ti a few years later and I was really living the dream. Good times.
750ti was so amazing at the time i could play any game on a $120ish gpu with a smooth frame rate
@@guccisquidbillytentacles kind of like the voodoo2, Unreal for me back in the day...
@@scottpetersen2028 i’m glad older gens had similar experiences i wish there was a low power budget card for the kids getting into pc gaming now tho
That DP/HDMI port is actually revolutionary. You can actually plug either an hdmi OR a displayport into that one port.
You are actually the first person on the internet that successfully downloaded RAM! Be proud!!!
Oh my God you're right I did I didn't even connect the dots lol
How bad was the original UEFI on that thing to literally let half the RAM unusable ? 😂
Probably cause the GPU was a shared GPU.@@Jean-Denis_R_R_Loret
Here's a good way to... Either stress test, or explode your devices:
1) GMOD
2) get a dupe with at least 50 ragdolls with thrusters
3) press any key to continue.
or just, spam explosives. Physics in gmod generally thrashes those old cpus.
Pardon the "um ackshually" but I don't think it'd be a great performance metric because the code of the source engine is simply so unoptimized that even on my PC with a Ryzen 5 and RTX 2070, gmod will scream in pain without causing so much as a stirr on the part of the CPU. Unless you run it on an Intel Atom or some Dell laptop from 2013 or older, it'll perform the same either way
Could still cause a memory leak tho
@glennglog22 most old or small computers can pass the half life 2 test pretty easily these days despite it hammering the average dual core no graphics business brick
Gmod is a great stress test specifically for machines from industrial applications because %90 of the time they have some dual core i7-5600u type APU
On newer machines like yours, Blender and Geekbench are indeed better benchmarks
@glennglog22 That's only the case for the OG 32-bit version, there's a newer 64-bit build which runs WAAAAY better
Yep, i remember XD My friend always crashed me if i made him mad by doing random shit
@@glennglog22the game runs on a single thread so it won't do much to any modern cpus
When i found this channel, i just started just non stopingly watch all of Bringus videos, and today after 2.5 days i watched every Bringus video on this channel. Cant wait to see more Bringus videos!
That's some crazy level of ... bringe watching 🫠
“64 bit is coming soon”
The prophet
“The more stains we add to the table, the more rich the lore is.”
That quote reminded me of DankPod and how many scuff marks he’s put onto his iPad cases.
The whole schtick was a dankpods ripoff
Yeah, he's pulling A LOT of inspiration from DankPods' style, but I guess he gives it his own touch. Throwing in way more memes and such. I guess it works, RUclips is just copying other people's shit most of the time anyway.
Dankpods and Bringus Studios probably have met at LTX, I think that’s where Dankpods got the triangle man sticker from
@@MildlyUpsetMaxhonestly Bringus is like if you mixed James and Dankpods into a pot, and sprinkle a bit of memes into it.

I knew those steam machines we're gonna flop when it got announced lol. But its super nice to see someone rediscover it and explore it without the fake enthusiasm for it.
This thing deserves another shot using the newest SteamOS from Valve itself instead of a fork.
Valve's steamOS hasn't been updated in forever, their debian-based version is largely discontinued, i'm pretty sure.
@@MyouKyuubi What about the version used on the Steamdeck?
@@laurensnieuwland4657 I've heard the one they use for the steam deck is actually just a lookalike version made by ChimeraOS, that uses 99% of the code from the official steam version.
So ChimeraOS is allegedly in charge of the current, most up-to-date version of "SteamOS" or more commonly known as "Holo".
Then again, there's a fair bit of conflicting and/or unclear information about all this, so i could be wrong.
@@laurensnieuwland4657SteamOS 3.0, the version used by the Steam Deck, has yet to be made publicly available by Valve. Until then, we're stuck with the old Debian-based SteamOS builds or SteamOS alternatives like Nobara Steam-deck edition, Bazzite, or ChimeraOS
@@laurensnieuwland4657 Unless they've updated it (dont think so), the Arch based SteamOS used on the Steam Deck doesn't work on anything else but the Steam Deck right now. It is tuned like crazy for the Steam Deck, so using it on anything else just breaks. I tried it on a virtual machine once and trying to get into "Gaming Mode" just results in either a black screen or crash.
Seeing TF2 chug like that really brought me back to when I used to play on my super cheap 2010 laptop that my parents bought me
I got good memories playing it on a single core Compaq laptop that ran at under 1GHz. I literally installed a model and texture pack that made it look like a PS1 game. Fantastic times.
People still play with n64 graphics in tf2 and they usuall have like 10000 hours
@@sulfur2964Dude said "People" like that isn't just b4nny lol
Good times playing it on 480p with a Nforce motherboard (back when Nvidia put integrated graphics in motherboards :-o )
Using FPS Configs really saved me in those days..
Hot glue tips:
1. It is actually pretty easy to repair a hot glue gun. It's literally just a hot thingy and a feeding mechanism. It literally just shoves the hot glue stick in one end of the hot thing and hot glue comes out the other side. Oh, and there's a little thing that stops the stick from escaping.
2. If you get hot glue on your hands, simply rub the glue as much as possible, thus making giving it much more surface area to cool off. This is so effective that if you do it fast enough, you can actually use it intentionally to shape the hot glue without hurting yourself. Speed is the key.
3. Hot glue gets more powerful the hotter it was. You can go from basically useless to harder than wood or crappy plastic. In most cases, you don't need full heat.
4. Stop the strings by wrapping them around the front part of the hot glue gun.
Man why my gluegun didnt come with tips like this on the manual :D
Pretty sure he wanted a fancy new one
@@Hnkkayou read your hot glue guns manual??
the plastic lever mechanism is probably just worn out after god knows how much friction.
Let the legend rest
Man, I remember they had a ton of these at CES 2014. If memory serves correct, one of the intents beyond steam os was for these to be modular server pcs or something like that. They had like a whole wall of them.

Holy shit as soon as you said “the piston” you unlocked memories in my brain. When I was younger, my best friend’s dad worked for some large company that made computers. Not sure what it was, but I remember my friend telling me about the Steam Piston, something his dad knew about. I’m pretty sure he actually had one at one point, but it’s been years
True story, bro
Micheal MJD and Bringus Studios brothers in "Something went wrong" and "This was supposed to be a quick video..."
Micheal MJD, Bringus Studios and MattKC would be a insane "stuff wasn't supposed to take this long" blunt rotation.
"This is more than playable this is straight up a good time." I LOVE HOW YOU SAID THAT! And anyone who's ever even tried their hand at PC gaming knows what you mean.
This video right here. This amount of dedication is what IT is all about. Managing devices you have never seen before and making them work.
Tyler McViker jumpscare got me absolutely laughing, especially the bassboosted sound

This guy is the Valve gamer version of DankPods. Obscure nuggets and all.
At 14:12 the logo is really laggy because apparently Microsoft used a 4K video for the OOBE intro and that's a total disaster on older hardware.
I watched three videos of you and my day is not ruined anymore, thx dude 👍
The USB-C thing is pretty neat, i use it myself to charge my laptop in the car. You should also note that you need a USB-C power delivery compatible charger/power supply.
eSATAp is quite handy. Monoprice's eSATAp cable is like $7. Plugs directly into a SATA drive. Get full SATA-III speeds. No need to fuss with external drives or power bricks.
wait no external power? dose this work with 3.5 drives?
@@deaft_shot4489 So on desktops and laptops with eSATAp Expresscard, almost 100% yes. When it comes to laptops with built in eSATAp, 12v compatibility is hit or miss. If your 3.5in drive can run off 5v, you're good. If it requires 12v, you might have a compatibility issues. My favorite use for eSATAp is sticking an eSATAp pcie card in my NAS and having quick access to sata drives without power bricks.
you realize there are SATA +power to usb adapters right?
@@cj.wijtmans thats why am wondering if it works for 3.5, because 3.5 requires extra power when using usb.
@@deaft_shot4489 no it doesnt.

My grandfather worked for valve back when they used to give these out to people before entering the lithium mines! He would tell me tales of how they throw them at the ground and if it sparked there was lithium in the rocks. They always had to hand them back at the end of the day since valve would sometimes harvest the ram chips from them to build new smart phones
I unironically love the design of this
Like the trashcan mac this is the steam brick
I always wanted one of these. It made me want a steam machine, but after that didnt work it just made me realize that I really just loved the mini pc form factor.
I have one of these and I absoutely love it. Its my baby. I bought it off of ebay listing it as a raspberry pi subsitute (I think 3b+ was newest at the time). I never had any ram issues with it and now I will have to check out the bios update. I will say if you populate both msatas and boot a linux live cd (I use lmde) you will notice one is msata and one is marked as "removable". Only the one marked as "removable" will boot (don't ask me), It will also not boot from the INTERNAL SD card slot you missed. The thing turns into a fireball if you put pressure on the gpu, even noctua fan replacements cannot tame this beast. Any cpu load is fine though its just the gpu. Oh and my ethernet port is straight up broken so I just use usb 3 ethernet adapters. I also have the original power supply, cool I guess it has a light and branding
yeah, the more i look at the basement bargin sff and usff computers the more i am realizing that if desktop needs are needed a pi is not the way to go. i still run mine hard though
Presumably whole RAM pool is basically... GDDR. Like a console.
This is like a proto-PS4 chipset.
I don't understand why he never ran gpu-z, that would explain everything.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding how memory sharing works, but is there actually a point in that considering it uses DDR3 RAM? I also don't see a reason why it would need more than 2GB of memory for such a weakling GPU, speaking of which, according to 16:01, it seems to use up to 768MB of memory @SteamPlayLEET
@@hikkamorii meory and CPu power aren't connected at all. It depends on the bus width and how much paging you want to allow

This man now knows what it's like to play Counter Strike in animated GIF form. The things we do for science.
those APUs were legit! i built a very similar build using an APU back in the day (2010's) and i set my budget as the cost of the xbone. i ended up building a PC that was better than the xbone for the same price, all built around the consumer version of the APU that went into the bone.
Which apu was that?

As a friend once said: THE GREATEST TECHNICIAN THATS EVER LIVED 🤣
Torx screws are great. Good torque without cam-out, pretty resistant to stripping. Love it.
"more like waste of sand force" is brilliant lmao
I love all of your videos from multiple perspectives: The tech, the DIY, and definitely the comedy. Your comments are absolutely hilarious! I always find myself laughing through the entire video.
Im sure someone else has already said it, but that thing you showed off was called i believe, the "Piston". The reason it had all of those UI ports was the thing was meant to be a modular PC. Which would come with a bunch of extra stuff like an external GPU and hardrive and the like. It was shown off briefly when Steam Machines were gonna be a thing but then disappeared into the ether like most of Steam Machines.
EDIT: LOL its in the vid. but whatevs. I explained the rest.
Yeah since I discovered all of that like halfway through the video it makes it a bit awkward to watch lol
@@BringusStudios Yeah. When I first saw the picture i was like "Oh shit! its THAT THING. I remember that." Cant believe its been 10+ years. I now feel way too old.
This was a splendid journey on a rollercoaster of emotions. +1
This was a well made video, love this type of content
I remember seeing the Piston shown off, I was so excited for Steam machines but the reviews were so horrific I stayed clear, now I own a Steam Deck and man crazy looking back at Valve trying to break free of Windows chains with actual final success ( I love the Steam Deck). I remember during the Steam Machine craze there were 3, The Alienware one, zotac (which i wanted initially), and a spaceship looking one by Cyberpower one.
Man remember the Steam Controller? I still have one and use it sometimes, it's great. The batteries last forever, the trackpads were very accurate, overall I love it. I really wish they would try again since now they can implement buttons on the back of the controller again. Supposedly they stopped making them because of a lawsuit, but now the steam deck has the same type of buttons?
I got one for like 20€ last year and it's pretty cool !
Steam deck doesn't have paddles it has buttons
I appreciate your placement of sound effects theyre not overdone like most u toob channels.

I think this still might could be a very nice emulation system. I would love to see a video with Batocera running on it. Low end emulation should be easy for this thing, but see how for you can push it in terms of emulated systems :)
I am afraid 7660G gpu will say hello
Both in therms of driver (amdgpu will not work as it is descendant of hd5000 line of gpus, and firegl driver is long dead) and performance. But light cpu-based emulation up to PS1 is possible.
It'd be interesting giving linux another try on this thing, the BIOS flash might have been necessary to allow linux secure boot or some shit like that.
This is my first time seeing this video and channel. But I got hooked on the tf2/source sound effects.
Fun fact! I got two of these in a goodwill eight years ago for five dollars a piece and have slept on them ever since because I couldn't be bothered to find a power cable for them! Mine also don't have USB 3.0. Instead, it has what it claims to be DL-DVI+VGA ports which are clearly just DVI ports.
Well done! That BIOS move was clutch, and something I was crossing my fingers waiting to come up with the nature of this beast. Really love these videos, and I'd also like to see your idea at the end of this video come to fruition!
Oh man, Xi3. These computers were hyped up so hard back in 2010 alongside Alienware's Steam Machine, and then one day the company evaporated after people started having trouble with the chipset. It's a neat design, and modern AMD APUs are far better suited to this kind of thing. The new 780m iGPU on the 7000 series is shockingly on par with a GTX Titan X Maxwell, for a tiny fraction of the power draw, so it's be a pretty solid indie/light gaming box.
I wonder if a 780m can be cajoled into working with Windows XP like a Titan X Maxwell 🤔
Love your editing style brother, all the gmod n half-life sounds are perfect. Subbed n liked 👌

Honestly, loading that little box up with XP, 7, or even Vista, and then using it for some older PC games... that seems like it'd be the dream scenario for this thing. Compact machine for late-90s to mid-00s games.

15:00 it probally is from the bulldozer architecture meaning that AMD prioritized the number of cores compared to the actual performance of them so budget CPUs had like 4 cores in them back in the day. plus its probably shared memory with the GPU and other parts
I remember wanting this thing so bad right around the time being mind blown with xbox 720 videos in middle school
