Scammed? How the hell were you scammed? You paid $200 for hundreds of dollars worth of usable parts. If the seller was selling it as working and you bought it for $200 actually thinking it would work, that sir, is totally on you. Of course it didnt work at that price.
@@DesignsByIFR And people smoke for fun! I get to detail big $$$ boats that have the same kind of crap everywhere, it even stains latex gloves when cleaning it.

@@LastExile1989 my wife took chantix. I'm one of those people that is able to just put them down and not pick them back up again if I choose not to. The trick is to keep your mind occupied and try not to think about it until you get passed the physical withdrawals.
You absolutely got your money's worth, even if the motherboard had to be replaced. The hardware for the custom cooling loop alone was probably worth that much. That stuff is not cheap. Seeing all the crap that came out of the cpu and gpu blocks makes me glad I decided not to mess with water cooling.
the only issue I see here with the water cooling gear are those EK classic tube fittings, EK have stopped making them, the last couple of years before they tried to force people into using those awful quantum fittings, the quality was so bad that they didnt even brand the classic fittings with the ek logo, their PETG tube quality is pretty crap these days as well.
Amazing work as always brother. It is always incredibly satisfying watching old systems getting restored to their former glory. I can’t wait to see more videos in the new series as I think it will do really well for you.
Really inspirational video. I have often considered buying old broken systems to try and salvage as much from them as possible. I think you said you paid $20 for this which to me sounds like an absolute steal considering the amount of parts that were fully functional by the end of your cleanup operation. Very impressive work guys, very, very impressive indeed.
@@Francis0980 Why he is scamming someone else if the computer is working perfectly now? Its not super powerful by any means, but it can game. Most people just care about that.
This is the kind of content i love. Cleaning and bringing back to life old gaming pc´s is so satisfying. This video popped up on my main youtube page and im so glad that i find you, cant wait for new cleaing and rebuilding videos💪💪
I also love buying pc parts on the used market that people don't treat right and turning it into something incredible. For me, its about breathing in new life and making the most out of these devices that attracts me.
If all fans were exhaust, then how did they get clogged with dust? And how did dust end up on the inside of the case if there was constant underpressure? Something doesn't add up here.
How old is that PC? I blow out dust of my PC (radiator and fans) once per year and by seeing how little dust builds up in my PC in one year, than i can not imagine how long it takes to get so much dirt in your PC without cleaning.
it's very satifying how much fps it produced and how it was able to play those games given the price of the pc, although sucks mother board got bent pin.
just in case anyone needs to know. if you have an old system with liquid that has dyed your clear hard tubing, run dawn dish soap with distilled water to clean off the dye.
Hello. I just want to ask. I'm watching how you apply thermal paste to the CPU and I think it's not quite right. Did you then try to remove the cooler again and see where there were free spaces on the CPU where the thermal paste did not reach? I recommend spreading the thermal paste evenly over the entire surface of the CPU. This will ensure that the entire surface is free of air bubbles.
should try 35% Hydrogen Peroxide its what you use to clean out sewer lines breaks and destroys grease and other stuff but recommend gloves and masks its also great for tile to whiten grout
I've got an O11 Dynamic XL with rads in the top and bottom. I clean it out every couple of weeks, so it's pretty clean. It could use some upgrades once I can afford it. It's running an 3900x with an RTX 2080.
All the pc parts gung-ho aside, those ROG Maximus mobos definitely has some charms of being so buff hardware wise it felt like it compliments the rest components around it, like it's the best thing about Asus ROG boards.
Can you please put the link of the market place, and if you sell one of your restored pc's maybe some of us will want to buy them. Great job and keep it up! ❤
basically it leaked and they didnt strip it down and clean it, held there hands up said ive killed it then flogged it off, im amazed that Power Supply worked, how old are those fans thats the original old stytle Thermaltake badge must be at least 15years old. its weird how the owner cared enough to spend money on EKWB water cooling parts, but didnt take the time to fix and clean up the leak.
Have you ever consider use Ultrasinic cleaner for some components like the coling transfer plate or such ? It might be one tool to add to your work shop. But excelent job
Thank you! I habe thought about it but i love to show manually on camera how i would clean something because if anyone else wanted to try for themselves i wouldnt imagine many people own an ultrasonic cleaner
I have BitFenix Neos with only two fans, and it is dusty. I try to clean it up with vacuum cleaner because I don't have any compressed air. CPU cooler and fans need cleaning badly.
How did you solve American megatrends issue ??? It always says to me "system will shutdown after 15sec" sometimes it worked and sometimes nope 👎 If anyone have solution please tell me
I'd never buy anything with an old Gigabyte motherboard, however nice board upgrade :) Asus ROG Maximus IX Hero? If you look hard enough you can find 6700k for $100aud usually on gumtree, delid, liquid metal and can get 4.7 to 4.8ghz overclock stable :) Would be cool to see some tweaking happening, watched 2 of your rebuilds so far and that's the only detail lacking everything else is spot on man!
Great movie! I love them! Please make more and more videos like this on the channel! Well done! There's a lot of satisfaction in watching something come back to life!
retro hardware showed for rads with corrosion inside , you need to run citric acid and baking soda threw it and i have a 3 pack of those thermaltake fans still in use

Notice this is one of the few he doesn’t reply to. Mfka weird asl tb scammed for $200 yet the parts alone are worth easily double🙄
The yellow stickiness is from cigarette smoke. Nicotine stains yellow and is extremely sticky and dust builds up on it like glue.
Yeah its terrible haha

I AGREE! There was no Scamming involved if the seller stated it could be the Mobo in the first place.
Air cool is easier and not scary like water coolin
I only use air cooling in my PCs and temps are fine (under 60C) and it looks better with shinny metal than that flowing juice or plastic hoses.

Thats a sad way of looking at it. Iv fixed it up, it works now. How is that a scam if i sell it?

Yeah i like these clean up rebuild ones. They are good for people who just cant afford high end builds. Nice job buddy
Thank you my friend!
I'm glad you redid the plumbing. It was the worst custom water cooling setup I've ever seen.
That guy who sold you that PC probably blocked you the SECOND he got your money cause he knew what was wrong with it
Yeah that would be my guess
i mean thats kinda what you deal with on facebook market place.@@DesignsByIFR
One time, I found I was blocked before even driving away from the sale.

When the pc is turned off, it collects dust. Especially when it is in an environment where ppl smoke.
The most amazing part of the PC is that the blue stickers on the EK logos have not even been removed.
It’s funny how none of the stickers were removed, like on any of the components
Haha i sorted it 😃 i got you
Loved this rebuild/fix it video, the GPU and CPU stayed frosty 🥶 noice
Appreciate it!

it's very satifying how much fps it produced and how it was able to play those games given the price of the pc, although sucks mother board got bent pin.
Mate , why you didnt put better cpu like 7700k or i heard that on this chipset can put modified bios and 9900k
Im curious on 23:25 How did you get scammed? The parts alone are worth more than what you paid.
The pc didnt work, he advertised it as working

Great system revive! Almost painful to think how long it must've taken to clean everything up and then finally to troubleshoot the boot error. +1
lots of stuff worth way more than $200, you ripped someone off big time
Took me by surprise when that wild pipework and clean pump appeared suddenly
what chems did you use to clean the rads?
Hello. I just want to ask. I'm watching how you apply thermal paste to the CPU and I think it's not quite right.

I recommend spreading the thermal paste evenly over the entire surface of the CPU. This will ensure that the entire surface is free of air bubbles.
i wonder if the gpu and cpu are the same temp because they are in the same cooling loop?
Toilet boil cleaner will instantly get rid of hard water on the inside of that radiator. Don’t let it sit tho. Do it very quick. Works like magic
All of the fans were EXHAUST??? I can't even imagine the condition this thing would be in if they were all set to intake 😷
Hahaha very true
Fresh grape juice into the cooling loop, ready to make another batch of gamer wine
3:20 there are no stains due to the fact that the "coolant" was just tabwater with Red DYE. Also explains the rust.
Did you check the cmos battery? To make sure it wasn't bad causing the issue
Why You fill the system whit Red GUNK Coolant.?
almost 600k subs, congrats corey!!!
that new series would be an awesome watch! i'll definitely be looking out for the new series!
Thanks! I am excited for it
my pc is 10years+ and it is clean. I clean it every 3-5 Month. it is old but i like him.
should try 35% Hydrogen Peroxide its what you use to clean out sewer lines breaks and destroys grease and other stuff but recommend gloves and masks its also great for tile to whiten grout
Iv actually got a bunch of it, never thought of using it for pcs
I recommend washing with water and soap. That is complete cleaning, not only visually, you get rid of smell too.
even with having to replace the motherboard, 100 bucks is still an incredible price lol
Great video Corey. 👍👍
Thanks mate! Good to see you again =)
Neighbor: "What your watering?"
Me: " My Pc."
Fantastic video!👍
Thank you very much!
Great video, but I don't think you were scammed. With the items you got in the PC, including the case, you got your $250 back.
It is not about the price, it is about description.
I have to admit, just looking at the condition from the thumbnail, I would likely toss it in the rubbish, rather than touch it.
Haha i love fixing and cleaning them up
Upload this kinda video daily Corey🖤
I wish i had the ability to, these take longer than actual pc builds

90 degree bend in the tubing that massively constricts the flow. Who the heck built this thing?
do people not realise they need to keep their stuff clean? i never let anything get even close to this state.

These restoration videos are so therapeutic ❤
Glad you like them!
You are amazing keep up the amazing work ❤️
They dont clean before selling stuff?🤔
What did u use for inside radiator???
Looked like basic windex may or may not be with vinegar.
Instead of windex have you tried 30% vinegar and distilled water?
Yes i use vinegar quite often =)
what "chemical" solution was used to clean the radiators on the inside?
retro hardware showed for rads with corrosion inside , you need to run citric acid and baking soda threw it and i have a 3 pack of those thermaltake fans still in use
We did chuck in some acid =)
Maybe narrow the nozzle on the leaf blower to increase blowing force...
Its ok everything is clean, it was just to remove some loose dust before i start
On hardware and non-porous surfaces, hydraulic fluid will remove rust and stains. Just can't leave it on long enough for it to stain lol.
How did u get scammed? the state of the pc was pretty bad. You're lucky it was only the motherboard that was broken lol
Not accurate description.
i know it look cool but colored water is the gunk in the system, only use clear water it dount look cool but it works all the time
Even for that money you get worth without the board.2 gpu cards and aio is worth more
Looking at the dust, they probably smoked in the house.
Yeah i think so
Enjoying the content. Could insist seller starts system prior to purchase to reduce likelihood of surprises when restored.
The former owner of that PC was VERY 420 friendly.
I smoke but clean my computer regularly. Shits nasty
i cant believe those r9 290x's run so well in crossfire
fantastic job. I knew you were better at this
I do not see the case listed in your parts list. What is it?
how about ultrasound cleaning that metal workers usually use to clean everything? (for radiators i mean)
