I grabbed a Lenovo ThinkCentre M7159q off Mercari for $50 usd and use it as my daily driver. I liked the small form factor so much I bought a Lenovo m83 for $25 and hooked it up to my living room tv as a media center/ retro game console.

It made me feel dumb for spending $600+ on off the shelf dell and hp PCs for years when all I do is light internet browsing and retro gaming and these little Lenovos work so dang well.
Those AIO’s are quite reliable,my school’s computer laboratory has them with 4th gen i5’s (I think they are either U or M?) and they are still running since 2014 considering they are being used by every student in the school (elementary graders,middle schoolers and high schoolers) It also can do light gaming,we set up a local minecraft server running on 1.10.2 there and ran roblox as well despite the lack of a dedicated GPU.
Nice. I recently got a ThinkCentre M72z AIO for free pretty much. Was the previous machine my mom's hair saloon used so when they upgraded they gave her the old one. The neat thing about it is I can upgrade the CPU in it from the original i5 to an i7 since the CPU is socketed. Just a matter of me finding the time/money to do so. :P

I subbed, and I'll tell you why: Our older pc's (tower/AIO/ lappy/etc) are soooo under-rated! We dont *need* the latest and greatest. And let's face it, it's just not feasible in these crazy days of outrageous market prices (both new and old). Kudos go to nvidia for recently (oct21 I think) now again supporting older gpus. Now we just need to convince MS of this, since we're being "punished" for having older systems. Yeah if we *do* install win11 then supposedly we'll not be allowed to get updates. I understand their reasoning (security and perhaps to a smaller extent, user experience) but allowance should be made for the current market. Okay, win10 is still supported for a few more years and I hope the market improves. Until then, there are a lot of us powering on with our older i5's and i7's with either onboard or lower end gpu's. I'm also all for recycling/repurposing older systems. As you say, sometimes they only require a little TLC to get them performing again. Loved the video! Can't wait to binge watch and get to know you a little better!
damn, it's quite impressive that such a thing can perform so well. i'm kinda interested in getting one to leave at my parents' place so I don't have to bring my massive gaming laptop that i basically turned into a stationary pc at my place when i visit them for a few days every few months. being able to do uni work and play some csgo with friends from time to time on a thing like that just seems perfect.
I game on one that was free lol, it was trash day and a laptop was on top of a pile. Got it working, put an ssd in and I play Elder Scrolls on it all the time now lol. It can't play many newer games though as the Semi-Dedicated GPU is pretty old and does not support DX11 fully so games like Witcher 3 and any fully DX11+ era game are usually out of the question or will run horrible. It does play GTA V though on the lowest of low settings but even then not well

When you said the card was a cut down version of a 940, I laughed. Remember when they used to cut down GPUs? Lmao. What a world. We had no idea what was coming.
Since I sold my Gaming Laptop Im stuck with the OG Surface Book with the dGPU (basically a 940m with GDDR5 vram). The GPU can run games like Minecraft at the full resolution of 3000x2000 and even newer games at 1500x1000. The CPU tho, good thing that the dual core i7s are gone.
These early 2010s hp aio's are very interesting. A lot of them even have an mxm graphics slot that originally housed crappy cards like the hd 7650a for the higher end configs, and from my research it should be upgradeable. I'm planning on doing exactly that soon with either an eliteone 800 G1 or a Z1 G3, upgrading them to a radeon wx4150.
I have the red trimmed beats edition of this All In One that HP released in 2014. It's my daily driver and I love it. Speakers are great, 1080p screen still is decent for 2021, and you can play some games on it. I really like the clean look with my wireless keyboard and such. Plus I'm a Beats fan (you can make fun of me haha) so it's a cool thing to have/use.
I managed to score a Mid-2011 27" iMac with a 512MB HD6770M graphics card, 12GB 1333MHz DDR3 and a quad-core Intel Core i5-2500S at 2.7GHz. Nothing wrong with it at all. The camera doesn't work but just might have been unplugged. The only issue with it was that the computer used to boot up with lots of errors and took 20+ minutes to boot up. All it needed was a fresh install of macOS High Sierra and that was it. It runs like a dream and I've upgraded it to 16GB of RAM (also free, salvaged from an old MacBook Pro that wasn't working). I use it for video editing, general computing and running AutoCAD :) And yes, the graphics card is actually pretty decent. It can run Bus Driver (an old SCS game, I know) at fully maxed out settings with 8X Anti-aliasing at 1440p. Video editing is pretty smooth but it could do with an SSD as the frame rate stutters sometimes just due to the slow hard drive.
After watching this again, I can conclude that yes, I still love this computer (as well as computers like it) and would happily use something like this as my main PC - so long as it had a 1TB or 2TB hard drive in it instead of the small 240GB SSD. Believe me, I can't have a main PC with such a small amount of storage. edit: seems like you can only put 1 drive in, so it would be 1TB/2TB HDD, or 500GB+ SSD. See my latest reply for what I'd do in 2023.
@@peterpan408 Fast forward to 2023 and with Kingston A400 960GB SSDs available for under £40, there's literally no reason to put in anything less than 1TB (even in SSD form factor) into an AIO PC like this. More modern AIOs may even have dual HDD/SSD bays, or a mSATA (or M.2/NVME) and a 2.5in SATA bay combo.
If you’re patient, you can still get good deals. I recently got a 3gb 660 ti for a decent price, it still performs well in most modern titles(as long as you manage expectations)
After 2 mins of Googling, this system has a socketed CPU, which you know about as you re-pasted it. I'd think dropping an i7 4770T which would add hyperthreading onto the system. You'd probably bottleneck the GPU by that point but it'd make all those already good Valve titles run even better
We have an Acer Aspire Z5771 AIO that has a socketed i5 2400s, 6gb of RAM and a 240gb SSD that replaced its dying 1tb HDD. It still works fine for web browsing and document editing despite being 10 years old at this point. It even has a PCI 16x slot that can take GPUs. Some models even came with a TV tuner
Since I've bought aio for my mům in 2020, I've noticed, that this segment looks really nice and you can found Cool Stuff. Also - it isn't as complicated as laptop, it is packed fairly well, has most popular outputs, you can always upgrade it (well, most of the time xD). This is really Cool part of Stuff, shame, that is so barely used.

Wonder if you know anything about fixing AIO.. I have a HP pavillion 24-xa motherboard, and I bought a stick of ram and a fan. The LED for the power lights up, but I can't figure out which pins to jump on the 4-pin power connector...
Really good review and yes I certainly rate these AIO PCs well. The screens on AIOs look pretty decent as well - and remember, with an AIO you don't need to buy another screen. A decent 1080p monitor can easily set you back £75 or more. Only thing I would be concerned about (especially on models newer than the one reviewed) would be upgrading and servicing the machine, though it should still be doable. Unlike the one reviewed here, many HP systems still have single channel memory, which is not ideal at all.
So where can I buy these for a tenner? Overheating or not, any 4-core haswell pc is well worth over en 20 fold of that... The UK market is really weird, here in NL the cheapest PoS AIO pc is a rubbish AMD x2 based one and an old i3 based one for 90 euros...
I pulled a STORM branded AIO system out of the bin shed in my area and it’s great! Was thrown away because the hard drive was dead so I got an SSD, cleaned the dust and changed the thermal paste which made it work brilliantly! Similar specs your HP although mine isn’t as sleek.
Yeah, these are great specs for the price. Sadly, these get too expensive to repair where I live, since if it has anything broken in it its always the screen, and getting a working screen for these are so expensive that it doesnt make sense to go in that route (At least where I live)
Tbh anything over a first gen i3 is good. I daily drive an i3-350m with integrated graphics and for things like web browsing and low 480p gaming it works surprisingly well.
Definitely a really good deal that 830a being based off the 940mx is definitely a major hindrance... I've used the 940mx before on a msi laptop hot, horrible performance and just shit
@@BudgetBuildsOfficial probably got better cooling on the AIO and TBF the cooling in the laptop was looks like it was more designed to just have a full intel igpu and cpu
Yes! I just got a 2011 Sony VPCL2 for £0. It's a 1080p 120Htz 3D touchscreen with a core i7 2600M. It's an amazing pinball machine because I can rotate it 90 degrees and use the touchscreen. Needed a new SSD, more ram, a new wifi card, a clean and a re-paste and it's great. Fantastic way to play old 90s and 2000s games. Only negative is the truely terrible graphics card: a Geforce GT540M.... It's got HDMI in and out, so in the daytime it's my second monitor for work, and for games it runs them itself, it streams from the proper PC and with 3D HDMI in I can hook up the PS3 and play in 3D!
I bought a 2nd gen sandybridge Pentium powered one at a local auction for the grand total of £2, it was sold as a monitor but i realised pretty early thats it was an AIO. It worked great but was sluggish when windows 10 was installed so I installed an i7 2600S (low energy use variant) and a 500gb SSD, also doubled the ram to 8gb. It was much better then. sold it a couople of years back for £100. We used it as a `kitchen` pc, id never had an AIO pc before, so when it was time to upgrade I went for an AIO Optiplex, Im using a variant of that now - Optiplex 3280 i5 10500T, 25p gb M.2, 8gb RAM. Cost me £75.
I'm super jealous. I have the first-generation of this same PC which only has a Kepler-based Nvidia 730A and isn't nearly as capable. I've managed to game on it a bit, but not anywhere near that level. I picked it up cheap (by my local standards ~$250CDN/£150) a bit over a year ago, added in an mSATA SSD, upgraded the WiFi, RAM, and hard drive. It's a good little machine and it's done an admirable job of replacing my dying laptop, and has gotten me through the pandemic well. But as my job responsibilities have increased, it's become increasingly inadequate bostly because of the thermal limits in the cooling system. I did re-paste my CPU and GPU with some high-quality paste when I did the upgrades, and that did help, but I'm still regularly finding myself hitting thermal limits and maxing out the CPU (mine has a i5 4670T). So I'm upgrading to a more beastly All-in-One, the Acer Aspire Z5761. It can fit a miniITX motherboard, a proper (low profile) CPU cooler, and even has room for a low-profiule GPU. The one I'm picking up has already been upgraded with an i7 4790 so that should take care of the CPU bottleneck. Now I just need to figure out what GPU to get... if only there were a channel that specialized in low-cost PC hardware 🤔...
The GeForce 830A has a Passmark score of 1005. This usually means about 45 fps with 1080p Competitive settings Fortnite and 30 fps with 1080p Normal GTA V. It would be better at 720p/900p Fortnite would be well over 60 fps with the performance mode on.

Now we just need to convince MS of this, since we're being "punished" for having older systems. Yeah if we *do* install win11 then supposedly we'll not be allowed to get updates. I understand their reasoning (security and perhaps to a smaller extent, user experience) but allowance should be made for the current market. Okay, win10 is still supported for a few more years and I hope the market improves. Until then, there are a lot of us powering on with our older i5's and i7's with either onboard or lower end gpu's. I'm also all for recycling/repurposing older systems. As you say, sometimes they only require a little TLC to get them performing again. Loved the video! Can't wait to binge watch and get to know you a little better!
damn, it's quite impressive that such a thing can perform so well. i'm kinda interested in getting one to leave at my parents' place so I don't have to bring my massive gaming laptop that i basically turned into a stationary pc at my place when i visit them for a few days every few months. being able to do uni work and play some csgo with friends from time to time on a thing like that just seems perfect.
Coming from someone with a core i5 4590, That thing would even put up a impressive fight without a GPU 🤯
I'm so glad you're uploading again, thank you!
I am very mad at HP for making a 400 dollar laptop that has a CD drive from 2016 performs worse than this. What a ripoff
I game on one that was free lol, it was trash day and a laptop was on top of a pile. Got it working, put an ssd in and I play Elder Scrolls on it all the time now lol. It can't play many newer games though as the Semi-Dedicated GPU is pretty old and does not support DX11 fully so games like Witcher 3 and any fully DX11+ era game are usually out of the question or will run horrible. It does play GTA V though on the lowest of low settings but even then not well
If having a pc from 2007 taught me anything its that warframe would probably run on that

When you said the card was a cut down version of a 940, I laughed. Remember when they used to cut down GPUs? Lmao. What a world. We had no idea what was coming.
Excuse me? You can service your machine? Crikey can I go live in that era of respecting consumers and not locking you out of the device you own?
Since I sold my Gaming Laptop Im stuck with the OG Surface Book with the dGPU (basically a 940m with GDDR5 vram).
The GPU can run games like Minecraft at the full resolution of 3000x2000 and even newer games at 1500x1000. The CPU tho, good thing that the dual core i7s are gone.
Try Gta SA on it or Gta Vice City in 1080p for low end PC's to see how much FPS you get!
You should try making a video collab with Psivewri
Oh hi
These early 2010s hp aio's are very interesting. A lot of them even have an mxm graphics slot that originally housed crappy cards like the hd 7650a for the higher end configs, and from my research it should be upgradeable. I'm planning on doing exactly that soon with either an eliteone 800 G1 or a Z1 G3, upgrading them to a radeon wx4150.
That's a really impressive system for the price! I guess some AIOs are pretty slept on.
Dude this PC is better than mine, what are you talking about??
I would just like to know how and where you got this for a tenner what a steal been binging your videos as I'm a new sub! 😉
Woah, this channels back! Woohoo. Reliving the old days!
I have the red trimmed beats edition of this All In One that HP released in 2014. It's my daily driver and I love it. Speakers are great, 1080p screen still is decent for 2021, and you can play some games on it. I really like the clean look with my wireless keyboard and such. Plus I'm a Beats fan (you can make fun of me haha) so it's a cool thing to have/use.
Sony absolutely trashes Beats in terms on audio and build quality and comfort. Not salty. Just the truth. If you like Beats, I respect ur opinion
Brilliant!
Can we get Frankenstein build next ? Something you can find in dumpster outside McDonald's
my question is how he keeps saving these pcs fro the garbage, there is nothing that i have found like that where i live
meanwhile, me watching on my laptop with MX130 graphics which is a rerelease of 940MX: "Wait it can do that for 10 pounds!?"
Him: gets 130 fps in CS:GO on that PC
Me: getting 15 fps in CS:GO on my laptop with a 940M
I managed to score a Mid-2011 27" iMac with a 512MB HD6770M graphics card, 12GB 1333MHz DDR3 and a quad-core Intel Core i5-2500S at 2.7GHz. Nothing wrong with it at all. The camera doesn't work but just might have been unplugged. The only issue with it was that the computer used to boot up with lots of errors and took 20+ minutes to boot up. All it needed was a fresh install of macOS High Sierra and that was it. It runs like a dream and I've upgraded it to 16GB of RAM (also free, salvaged from an old MacBook Pro that wasn't working). I use it for video editing, general computing and running AutoCAD :)
And yes, the graphics card is actually pretty decent. It can run Bus Driver (an old SCS game, I know) at fully maxed out settings with 8X Anti-aliasing at 1440p. Video editing is pretty smooth but it could do with an SSD as the frame rate stutters sometimes just due to the slow hard drive.
the benchmarks are really surprising!
I was thinking 30fps in some of those games but it really exceeded my expectations
Love your videos! Really missed them. Great to see you back

BeamNG ran better on that all in one than my old pc.
Watching mr bucket builds gives me a rock on 😩
The best £10 spent on a computer.
A month ago back I found a 2011 27in iMac that someone threw out, not sure which one I would take, the HP is definitely much more modern
ah it's another video again :) Its was too long to wait for next one
The common HP trait of poor cooling
Surprised to see dual gpu on this all in one, very interesting nvidia gpu there mate.
After watching this again, I can conclude that yes, I still love this computer (as well as computers like it) and would happily use something like this as my main PC - so long as it had a 1TB or 2TB hard drive in it instead of the small 240GB SSD. Believe me, I can't have a main PC with such a small amount of storage.
edit: seems like you can only put 1 drive in, so it would be 1TB/2TB HDD, or 500GB+ SSD. See my latest reply for what I'd do in 2023.
It's probably not your main PC.
And yes, it is better to build with a 500GB or 1TB ssd.
@@peterpan408 Fast forward to 2023 and with Kingston A400 960GB SSDs available for under £40, there's literally no reason to put in anything less than 1TB (even in SSD form factor) into an AIO PC like this. More modern AIOs may even have dual HDD/SSD bays, or a mSATA (or M.2/NVME) and a 2.5in SATA bay combo.
This build needs ghost spectre
I hate how this has a better CPU than my main PC in 2022
If you’re patient, you can still get good deals. I recently got a 3gb 660 ti for a decent price, it still performs well in most modern titles(as long as you manage expectations)
You know he got a good deal when a freaking HDMI cable is more expensive than this entire computer
After 2 mins of Googling, this system has a socketed CPU, which you know about as you re-pasted it. I'd think dropping an i7 4770T which would add hyperthreading onto the system. You'd probably bottleneck the GPU by that point but it'd make all those already good Valve titles run even better
We have an Acer Aspire Z5771 AIO that has a socketed i5 2400s, 6gb of RAM and a 240gb SSD that replaced its dying 1tb HDD. It still works fine for web browsing and document editing despite being 10 years old at this point. It even has a PCI 16x slot that can take GPUs. Some models even came with a TV tuner

Since I've bought aio for my mům in 2020, I've noticed, that this segment looks really nice and you can found Cool Stuff. Also - it isn't as complicated as laptop, it is packed fairly well, has most popular outputs, you can always upgrade it (well, most of the time xD). This is really Cool part of Stuff, shame, that is so barely used.
Not as powerful as the Asus EEEpc
the beamng test actually impressed me alot, i got my first pc that was "mine" in 2018, which had an r7 240 and an fx 6300, so from a similar era, and i ran beamng at 17 fps, i finally have a good pc that is balanced-ish these days with 32 gigs of ddr4 2666, an i7 10700f, a basic b560 board with 2 broken ram slots because amazon, a 10700f, and the holy grail, the gtx 1080, which i upgraded from my 1650 super
Wonder if you know anything about fixing AIO.. I have a HP pavillion 24-xa motherboard, and I bought a stick of ram and a fan. The LED for the power lights up, but I can't figure out which pins to jump on the 4-pin power connector...
Regared uploads? I missed you, man!
Really good review and yes I certainly rate these AIO PCs well.
The screens on AIOs look pretty decent as well - and remember, with an AIO you don't need to buy another screen. A decent 1080p monitor can easily set you back £75 or more.
Only thing I would be concerned about (especially on models newer than the one reviewed) would be upgrading and servicing the machine, though it should still be doable. Unlike the one reviewed here, many HP systems still have single channel memory, which is not ideal at all.
You should Benchmark CSGO at 1280x960 or 1024x768 as these are the two most used Resolutions for people who play competitively.
Can you game on 3.96$ Pc?
So where can I buy these for a tenner? Overheating or not, any 4-core haswell pc is well worth over en 20 fold of that...
The UK market is really weird, here in NL the cheapest PoS AIO pc is a rubbish AMD x2 based one and an old i3 based one for 90 euros...
My once upon a time £450 laptop runs BeamNG slower than an equally aged £10 all in 1 PC.... I feel robbed
I pulled a STORM branded AIO system out of the bin shed in my area and it’s great! Was thrown away because the hard drive was dead so I got an SSD, cleaned the dust and changed the thermal paste which made it work brilliantly! Similar specs your HP although mine isn’t as sleek.
Just won a Dell Inspiron One AiO PC - Intel Celeron E3300 2.66GHz / 3GB RAM / 320GB HDD for £15 on ebay
This is the content i come here for
Yeah, these are great specs for the price.
Sadly, these get too expensive to repair where I live, since if it has anything broken in it its always the screen, and getting a working screen for these are so expensive that it doesnt make sense to go in that route (At least where I live)
Tbh anything over a first gen i3 is good. I daily drive an i3-350m with integrated graphics and for things like web browsing and low 480p gaming it works surprisingly well.
Definitely glad you have returned. I was beginning to miss your videos
Omg I have this hp envy recline pc but with the beats limited edition version with a 1TB sshd 16gb ram and gt 730a gpu
I already know the answer is yes. I have a Dell with dual core cpu I upgraded to 2500k for more CPU and better intel iGPU
Definitely a really good deal that 830a being based off the 940mx is definitely a major hindrance... I've used the 940mx before on a msi laptop hot, horrible performance and just shit
This one tops out at 42C
@@BudgetBuildsOfficial probably got better cooling on the AIO and TBF the cooling in the laptop was looks like it was more designed to just have a full intel igpu and cpu
The shortage has stolen so many good budget builds videos from us
That's a quite capable PC for only 10 bucks. I wish I could find deals like that here in my country.
Yes! I just got a 2011 Sony VPCL2 for £0. It's a 1080p 120Htz 3D touchscreen with a core i7 2600M. It's an amazing pinball machine because I can rotate it 90 degrees and use the touchscreen. Needed a new SSD, more ram, a new wifi card, a clean and a re-paste and it's great.
Fantastic way to play old 90s and 2000s games.
Only negative is the truely terrible graphics card: a Geforce GT540M....
It's got HDMI in and out, so in the daytime it's my second monitor for work, and for games it runs them itself, it streams from the proper PC and with 3D HDMI in I can hook up the PS3 and play in 3D!
I bought a 2nd gen sandybridge Pentium powered one at a local auction for the grand total of £2, it was sold as a monitor but i realised pretty early thats it was an AIO. It worked great but was sluggish when windows 10 was installed so I installed an i7 2600S (low energy use variant) and a 500gb SSD, also doubled the ram to 8gb. It was much better then. sold it a couople of years back for £100. We used it as a `kitchen` pc, id never had an AIO pc before, so when it was time to upgrade I went for an AIO Optiplex, Im using a variant of that now - Optiplex 3280 i5 10500T, 25p gb M.2, 8gb RAM. Cost me £75.
I'm super jealous. I have the first-generation of this same PC which only has a Kepler-based Nvidia 730A and isn't nearly as capable. I've managed to game on it a bit, but not anywhere near that level.
I picked it up cheap (by my local standards ~$250CDN/£150) a bit over a year ago, added in an mSATA SSD, upgraded the WiFi, RAM, and hard drive. It's a good little machine and it's done an admirable job of replacing my dying laptop, and has gotten me through the pandemic well. But as my job responsibilities have increased, it's become increasingly inadequate bostly because of the thermal limits in the cooling system. I did re-paste my CPU and GPU with some high-quality paste when I did the upgrades, and that did help, but I'm still regularly finding myself hitting thermal limits and maxing out the CPU (mine has a i5 4670T).
So I'm upgrading to a more beastly All-in-One, the Acer Aspire Z5761. It can fit a miniITX motherboard, a proper (low profile) CPU cooler, and even has room for a low-profiule GPU. The one I'm picking up has already been upgraded with an i7 4790 so that should take care of the CPU bottleneck. Now I just need to figure out what GPU to get... if only there were a channel that specialized in low-cost PC hardware 🤔...
New vid let's gooooo!
It always has make me jealous some people can find so good deals meanwhile all i can find here is guys trying to sell 2g of DRR2 ram for 10-15 usd
why is this faster than my 560$ IdeaPad 3
Because modern laptops are garbage by design.
The GeForce 830A has a Passmark score of 1005. This usually means about 45 fps with 1080p Competitive settings Fortnite and 30 fps with 1080p Normal GTA V. It would be better at 720p/900p Fortnite would be well over 60 fps with the performance mode on.
I have this machine that i bought brand new in 2014 . The thing is still a beast (hp envy recline 27 k350 i7-4765t nvidia geforce 830a 16gb ram 256gb MSATA, for operating system (yes it does have an open slot for this) / 240gb SSD Win 8.1 It runs GTA 5 no problem and RE2 REmake is a blast to play. The hdmi is for out only and you need Hp My Display software for it to work.
