    Working on old stuff is fun. I never got into cars, but computers always felt like the same vibe to me. Taking stuff apart, putting parts together, tuning it, etc. Its just fun!!

      100% your right it's not much different and just as much fun plus you use and develop hands on skills and cars these days are turning into PC's haha. Keep up the good work mate!

    super sweet that you went into a bit of detail about overclocking, looks easier than I would have imagined even on this old bios

      Thanks mate, 100% and as long as you keep you voltage under the brands recommended maximum (normally around 1.35volts) and with good cooling you'll have no worries. Thanks for watching

      Thanks brother that means a lot so glad you enjoy my videos. It's hard to compete with the big budget big team cannels out there but if each video gets a bit better one day I might make it to 1000 subs.

    So I just wanna start off by saying that you clearly know what you're doing with electrical wiring but I'm just curious why you've chosen to do everything the hard way.
    Perhaps something to do with the budget of the machine but really like you can pick up a rotary Dremel cheaply so you can cut more precise holes in metal, there are much easier ways to get the lights wired to the computer internally as well that don't leave it hard lined if you ever want to disassemble this PC.
    Beyond that you've made many cool design choices. I very much appreciate the right angle graphics card. I also work with 775 machines a lot to build retro gaming towers. Nice to see more of us out here.

    • @TheDiWHYGuy
      @TheDiWHYGuy  3 месяца назад

      Cheers mate. Yeah you got it low budget just got to work with the tools I got.
      I've moved to France from New Zealand for my wife and I'm not working yet and the channel is long way off be able to monetize so pretty much have to sell the old projects to fund the new one's. Its really sad to let them go after working so hard on them but its all part of it.
      With each new project I can get more advaced with my methods or return to the project down to line with more upgrades if I can get away without selling them off haha.
      Love 775 PC's still rember when they were new the performance was so much better than the Pentiums before. I had my 1st one almost 10 years before getting a upgrade.
      Thanks so much for watching!

      @@TheDiWHYGuy *TL;DR- I've saved 4 of these Lian Li PC-6xx chassis, they were well ahead of their time for case design and still great cases today.*
      People forget most PCs from this era were still rocking beige plastics over steel, so an all-Aluminum construction was special even then.
      I got a silver PC-601 from my University' Physics Department' dumpster. It now runs a Core i7 990X. I also got a black PC-61 from a Craigslist ad for $25; turns out it was once a NORAD PC earlier in its life; the hard drive was pulled for shredding but I got the rest of the system. It now runs a Core i7 4770K.
      I have another that's a PC-60 Plus, it hasn't been built in yet, the case was damaged by the shipper so I got a partial refund; it was $50 marked down to $30, and it kinda needs some parts now that I've borrowed some for the crown-jewel: an $80 Craigslist-find ProMagix HD60.
      I used wayback machine to find more info: this was a System Integrator of Lian Li that had bespoke cases made for their custom gaming PCs; the one I found was based on the PC-60 chassis with a new milled faceplate and swinging optical drive-cover, and was spec'd around $4k MSRP when new, complete with Core 2 Quad, cold-cathode lighting, the V1000 style removable case wheels, and the plexi side panels like yours.
      I think I'm going to leave this one stock: it came with an EVGA SLI motherboard and matching SLI ready RAM, it's missing the original GPU, but I do have an ATI HD5970 in my parts bin that should fit (it's a dual-GPU card) and be period-correct.
      Both the PC-601A and PC-61B have solid side panels, only the PC-60B Plus has the acrylic panel as well, but I sort of prefer the look of the solid panels for those. Both cases were missing 2x optical drive covers, so I used leftover Blu-Ray drives or sound card I/O controllers to fill the holes, and they're functional too.
      I also kept all the old Athlon64 hardware from them, and I have more generic steel cases so I can still make retro 98/2000/XP machines with the leftover bits.
      Watching was lots of fun; glad to see other PC enthusiasts saving these older, classy rigs!

    До сих пор сижу на компьютере, для которого комплектующие доставал бесплатно и иногда почти с помойки. В итоге Athlon II X4 640, 6Gb, Radeon RX460 - полностью доволен производительностью и отлично позволяет поиграть в любимые игры в том числе. Но у меня Windows 7.

  • @ZaGranyuDobra
    @ZaGranyuDobra 5 месяцев назад

    Но разгон ничего не даст и я считаю это глупой затеей. Было у тебя 60 кадров в секунду в любимой игре, а станет 62. Что ты выиграешь? Прирост производительности давно уже дает не разгон, а АРХИТЕКТУРА - то, как процессор сделан, как работает его контроллер памяти и так далее.
