Love your stuff, breath of fresh air in today's dumpster fire world. Please keep 'em coming. I have a feeling this week will require some tasty humor to endure.
Something I did when going from a 2012 ATX motherboard to a 2011 Micro ATX motherboard was buy a 4 slot USB 3.0 PCIE card for $15. The transfer speed isn't as fast as 3.0, but way faster than the 2.0, and let's me have more USB-A slots.
Thanks for the entertainment, Dweeb. Here, some moolah for the diet root beer and or apple funds. I'm gonna just slap a GPU into an office PC and I am just gonna spray paint the parts of the case I can, once I find colors I like to put together. Maybe blue and white. Or an orange and a purple. Not sure. Good video.
OMG you freaking legend! You spoil me. Me & Mom gonna be eatin' good tonight! I vote for the orange and purple. I bought a can of orange spray paint just to do a case mod on a different PC I have. Thinking of doing a gamecube vibe, actually. We'll see. Stay tuned!
@@TechDweeb awesome stuff, Dweeb. I know you put a lot of effort in your videos. Here is hoping you get as big as ETA Prime, and then get so big you have to hire people like Linus Tech Tips. I hope this channel keeps you hella busy for years.
good job man....ive had a few good cheap builds...love the lil mods too...i do stuff like that...cut a front panel n paint it ,bolt a rad to the front n pop the platic around it an add fan grills to the front fans..
If you have a spare expansion slot on your motherboard, you can install an expansion card with an internal USB 3 header. This way you can actually get USB 3 speeds with your USB 3 ports
Wow, don't know how I missed this one. Yes you should be proud of this particular build. There are other channels that do a pretty good job of taking old PCs and painting them, or taking an angle grinder and cutting out a window to see the guts. You took everything out, and turned it into something really beautiful that anyone would love to have on their desk. The cardboard shroud was a pretty neat solution. Maybe for your next mod, you can contact a company that produces carbon fiber vinyl wrap, and really trick out an old PC case.
@@TechDweeb Cool, can't wait to see it. Just picked up a used PC on Ebay. An HP Elitedesk 800 Small form factor with a Core I5 6th gen, with 16 GB RAM. Received today my Zotac GTX 1650. This build will be specifically to run the RETRO BEAST hard drive which I still have to order. I plan to trick out the case with carbon detail vinyl because it will probably be near my big TV in the family room, so it has to look good. Should be powerful enough for a retro gaming machine. Wish me luck.
I’m traumatized by those adapters. At my last job we had a server start smoking and we found a hackjob of cable management inside it. Long story short we coined the phrase “Molex to sata? Say goodbye to your data“
Love the transplant. I am doing the reverse thing and went for the Lenovo Legion T530 case to complete my black/red setup. Getting tired of the Phanteks evolv itx.
@@TechDweeb Ok the T530 only, the rest is meh. Also owned the Alienware Aurora R4 back when I was a kid, might get a local modder to do something with it.
Enjoyed this one. It’s what me and my boy love to do. Build a cheap pc, he games on it for a few months then we sell it and do it again. He turns himself a nice little profit. Good pocket money.
The office PC conversion may be completely dead for the next generation, since by skylake or so, prebuilt motherboards became some horrific proprietary form factor.
It's mostly just the office PC dying out in general and production being very low. Tablets phones smart tvs and laptops have become ubiquitous and businesses and schools, the big office PC drivers, now have cheaper options. COVID was the final nail in that coffin.
Wow, that was surprisingly error-free build. How do you pick which HP to pick up? I've been avoiding them, as there were way to many 2nd and 3rd gen HP bios related horror stories - how did you pick out the good one? Over here, in our market, i7 2600 is almost as cheap, but the one I like is - 4th gen Asus. Their prebuilts cost maybe a bit more than the others (excluding stupidly overpriced dell), but offer off the shelf motherboards. Maybe you have those over there too?
Oh really? BIOS horror stories huh. Is that like, errors that prevented booting? The guy who sold this to me said he knew 100% that it did work, apart from needing the jumpers on the USB connections (which I found out about after getting it home and testing it outside of the case first), my experience was error-free.
@@TechDweeb horror stories like, a bios that is somewhere half way between legacy and uefi, with plenty of uefi devices not working (newer gpus). Or, safeboot being impossible to turn off, with newer gpus not working. They even talked about two same models, from two different series working differently. Also, some boards top out at I think 35W for the pcie x16 slot, but this isn't bios related. Not my personal experience, mind you. I've heard this and decided to rather be safe than sorry. Haven't heard things like this on the 4th gen though. Gotta check the newer ones, as the 6th gen got sanely priced just recently over here.
@@youzernejm Any PCI-E x16 slot that doesn't provide 75W is not up to specifications and could easily be a problem for a computer in the office where they expect to be able to put in a low profile video card (in that setting usually an NVIDIA Quadro card or an AMD Pro card). I work in IT, and that would be something worthy of expressing our displeasure to the company that sold us the system. It's difficult for me to imagine a standard PC from HP, the make we use for the vast majority of our systems, having this issue. Whenever we've needed to put a low profile card in, it has worked as expected.
@@CFWhitman I've seen the boards that have the writing, eg 35W. Check out the images, there are such boards from other manufacturers too. Also, if you plop an nvs card, it's not like it'll use 75W, it'll be closer to 25. So, in this case your main issue would be if you can turn the safeboot off, or, if the card is in the list of qualified hardware (probably more important in corporate).
I did this, and let me tell you, be VERY careful what old HP system you pick, most of them are VERY locked down in the BIOS. I can't tell you how many times I wanted to____ only to have BIOS be like "NOPE!". Most of the time there wasn't even an option to do the thing.
I’m so glad I stumbled across this vid TD. HELP! I am a father of a very smart 8y/o son that REALLY wants a gaming PC. We simply don’t have the money for even a cheap pre built. I was thinking about a couple old towers I have in storage. 1 is an Emachines I bought in 2008-2009, the other is an HP I believe from maybe 2012-2014. Do you think either PC will be suitable? I really think he would enjoy and appreciate a first PC more if he had a hand in building it. This video has given me a lot of inspiration as I was feeling depressed because I knew I wouldn’t be able to buy him one for his birthday that’s in a month. Also, at 45, I have been out of the PC game for a while but you made me feel like I can do this. Do you have any other good resources for these type of builds? I have tears in my eyes, thank you so much TD.
Hey buddy. Hard to say if either of those would work without knowing the processors. Generally if it's an old i5 or i7 it'll be fine, but an old i3 or a 'core 2' or whatever probably won't work well, you'd be better off getting even a cheap mini PC as it would perform better. As a general rule of thumb, if the old computer was cheap when you bought it, it'll probably not be good enough to be worth upgrading. But if the computer was mid-range or expensive when you bought it then the processor might still have some life left in it. If that's the case you'll want to make sure you have 16gb of ram, and some sort of GPU. Even an old GTX 900 series or better GPU would do the job, and those are pretty darn cheap. You might also need a power supply upgrade as pre-built computers usually don't have enough power to support GPU expansion. And definitely an SSD, that's hands down the best upgrade you can get for an old PC to make it feel fast and modern. It just comes down to how much performance you will get compared to just getting a cheap PC like a Mini PC. And obviously it'll depend on what kinds of games you want to play, if you want very graphically intensive games then you'll need to spend more to get that. Hope this helps!
@@TechDweeb l guess my age is showing. I dug the 2 towers out of storage and one is a Dell Optiplex GX620 with a Pentium 4 HT, the other is a Emachines with an AMD Athlon II X2 and Nvidia graphics. I’m sure those are a little too dated huh? I will say, he will literally just play Roblox and maybe MSFS.
Something to be aware of is that if you have an eight pin connector on your video card rather than a six pin, it will need to be fed by two SATA connectors to ensure the wattage doesn't overload the wires/connectors and make them heat up and either fail or both fail and cause a fire. Another thing to be aware of is that having two different size RAM sticks will make it so it runs in single channel mode. Two RAM sticks must match and be in the correct slots to work as dual channel.
I believe you are mistaken about the ram. It's a myth that you need matching kits, or only sticks of the same size. You can test this yourself, try different configurations of RAM and check in cpu-z, you will see that even if you mix and match Ram kits they will still be running in dual Channel mode as long as you have them in the correct slots. I feel like I'm going to have to make it video on this topic because there's a lot of confusion about it.
@@TechDweeb Well, any difference in speed will just result in all your RAM running at the lower speed. It won't stop it from running in dual channel mode. When I said the modules must match, I meant in size. As far as dual channel memory goes. Intel (since 2004) has a mode called Flex Mode that allows part of your memory to run in dual channel mode and the rest to run in single channel mode (I read up on this since leaving my initial comment). So with this configuration you will have 8GB of dual channel RAM (the first 4GB of the 8GB stick along with the entire 4GB stick) and 4GB of single channel RAM (the other 4GB of the 8GB stick). However, there is no guarantee that all of the dual channel RAM will be used before any of the single channel RAM is used, so performance can be inconsistent. So far, I have been unable to confirm the existence of something like Intel's Flex Mode for AMD systems, so with what I know at present, I wouldn't expect it to work as dual channel on an AMD system. As a general rule of thumb, you are less likely to have memory issues if all your sticks of RAM are the same specifications.
You're making it really tempting to upgrade my PC that currently has an Asus M2N-MX motherboard and AMD Athlon processor with something more modern like a used i5 processer and compatible motherboard.
nice build. the white front looks so much better then the red!. you could look out for used i7 2600k or 3770k to slap in. if your patient you could probably find one for 20$, 30$ if your inpatient. might have to check if the mobo supports 2600k. 2600k overclocks suprisingly good as it was the last gen with a soldered heatspreader. 4.8GHz is areound the average that CPU could overclock
What operating system are you using, and how did you have it already installed? Ive watched many build videos now but have yet to see anyone explain how you pop a new hard drive in and automatically have an operatung system installed.
You can either transfer the data on the old drive onto your ssd before you do the swap (which is what I think I did here, I use a program called Macrium Reflect Free for that), or you can install windows from a USB stick and start fresh (check out this video if you need help doing that: ruclips.net/video/MZvztCAorB8/видео.html)
Yo! Sup dweeeeeeeeeeb! Nice guide, but I'll need a few tips on how to convince my boss to let me mod my work PC. Also, do you know if there's a way to make Cyberpunk look like Microsoft Excel? Asking for a friend.
Yes. In one of my previous case swap I needed to move the sensor over as well. And in this one I needed to use a jumper or else I would get errors on boot about missing the front USB ports.
🙂 broh, for it to run in dual channel mode the ram sticks must be of equal pairing of sticks, that is to say 4 4, 4 4 4 4, 8 8, 16 16 ........ theres a few videos floating around on this, ram sticks that are of different sizes is not dual channel, the performance will be a little gimped, other than that looks good, thanks for the video
Yo dude, i just got a gaming pc with an i3-9100f, rx570, 8gb of ddr4 runs at 2666mhz, 250gb ssd, 1tb hdd. I got it from a friend of mine. Is it a good deal?
Depends on the price (if it's a good deal or not), but that's a good setup to get you started, I built a very similar setup for my cousin semi-recently.
Great video. Found a few i5 2400 SFF Dells whilst dumpster diving in 2019 and managed to macgyver them with "external" RX570s. 4c/4t, 4x2gb ram, 500gb 2.5 SSD, PCIe ribbon and RX 570 for $170CAD. Glorious little duct taped machines.
What you need to do is remove the nuts that are mounted to the HP case (you'll have to yank them off) and use them on the back of the new mobo to give the screws something to screw into. That, or use zip ties - the PC builder's secret weapon ;)
@@TechDweeb i just tight nuts from the back of the motherboard and the screws are fit on that 4 nuts, is this okay? Because if i want to apply thermal paste again i have to remove the whole motherboard again
It could easily be a gaming pc without looking cool. It'd be a sleeper system.

Yo dude, i just got a gaming pc with an i3-9100f, rx570, 8gb of ddr4 runs at 2666mhz, 250gb ssd, 1tb hdd. I got it from a friend of mine. Is it a good deal?
Depends on the price (if it's a good deal or not), but that's a good setup to get you started, I built a very similar setup for my cousin semi-recently.
@@TechDweeb yo, i forgot to mention the price, it's only cost me $210 USD (IDR 3.000.000)
My Elitedesk 800 G2 TWR wont reconize any GPU tried GTX960 and 970 wont reconize it. The Original NVS310 Works Instant…. Need helpppppp
I painted a Atari 800 back in the day.
Still have it. Stored in attic
Great video. Found a few i5 2400 SFF Dells whilst dumpster diving in 2019 and managed to macgyver them with "external" RX570s. 4c/4t, 4x2gb ram, 500gb 2.5 SSD, PCIe ribbon and RX 570 for $170CAD. Glorious little duct taped machines.
Those Frankenstein rigs are things of beauty.
i5 3470 and GTX 750ti is bottleneck?
the i5 3470 bottlenecks the 750 ti by 27% on average.
What about CPU cooler? Mine is not fitting after removing from hp case
What you need to do is remove the nuts that are mounted to the HP case (you'll have to yank them off) and use them on the back of the new mobo to give the screws something to screw into. That, or use zip ties - the PC builder's secret weapon ;)
@@TechDweeb i just tight nuts from the back of the motherboard and the screws are fit on that 4 nuts, is this okay? Because if i want to apply thermal paste again i have to remove the whole motherboard again
IS i3 10100F good with rx 580?
It's about a 15% gpu bottleneck. Not too bad.
Who remembers pentium 2? 😂
I remember when pentium didnt exist lol
I remember the first time hearing the WORD "pentium". It was magical tech back then.
Just found and cleaned up my old rig from 98 a few weeks ago. I didn't remember them being a cartridge style processor at all. Blew my mind.
whats the name of the case
Corsair SPEC-04 - it's out of production. You can probably get them on local market or ebay.
SPEC-04
did fanxiang ssd holds up after 6 months?
Yup!
