I live my best-life-PC-hoarding vicariously through you young man, because ALL of my closets are FULL of PCs and parts....so reassuring to know there are others with the sickness, here's to never finding a cure.
Glad to see you got a capture card! Good show of using it, hope you like that approach. My wife's old desktop was a HP and it also is a ATX form factor case with ATX power supply and connectors on the MB. I'm hanging on to it to maybe upgrade the power supply and MB and have a modern system in an older prebuilt case. Some day that is, I'm up to my eyeballs in mini PCs and want MORE! Long live chair desk!
Jealous of that 1080 Ti! It's my (low end???) dream card atm. Specifically a FTW3 version with the fancy nameplate. Love the work you're doing! It fascinated and depresses me how much potential these old office motherboards have. Such power and capability, destroyed by company utilization of proprietary connectors, connected devices, and even anchor points. It's very surprising to see a more modern model with a 24-pin power connector. I'm guessing this one has odd anchor points for tge motherboard though, making a case swap impossible without a sort of motherboard riser - if that's a thing. Kind of surprised too that no 3rd party seller has come up with 3D printed anchor converters. But, then again... You raise the board itself and that makes installing PCIe devices impossible, and makes the IO ports not fit properly in the IO shield... WHYYYY!! I know why. I just don't like it lol. Looking forward to more of this tinkering and comedy :D And if you ever feel up to it, there are quite a few ultra budget motherboard combos out there that might be worth reviewing. The Q87, B85, and H110. Along with budget or rare Intel motherboards like the DH77 and the DX87SR / SI (if I remember correctly). Really cool southbridge heatsink on that one, but driver support is subpar. Or so I've heard. The Asus H81, B85, and H110 motherboards have 4-pin CPU power connectors, for anyone stuck with a crappy old PSU that only has 4-pin and doesn't want to upgrade lol.
Definitely, I am really liking the 1080ti. It is still on the higher end of "budget" cards, but relatively speaking the price for a used one is not bad compared to other (newer) cards, and also what it is capable of. I am with you on all the proprietary stuff, it is really disappointing sometimes. I don't know about a case swap for this board specifically, but it seems like most pre-built HP and Dell motherboards can't be case swapped without customization. The holes for the screws never line up and the solutions for that problem always seem overly complex. To be honest I haven't looked into it that much though, so it is hard to say. Appreciate the recommendations for the boards you mentioned, I am always looking for budget hardware, so I'll keep an eye out. And I'm glad you are liking the videos, thank you for watching!
i enjoy to see you putting more videos out more often, 100% something that always makes for a batter day. thank you for the time and the videos you make! long live the CHAIR DESK!!!!!!
Nice Build. I like that HP used a Standard MB Connector. I think Chairdesk needs a partner. like a utility table with wheels to build open air Machines that you can wheel around to keep Chairdesk entertained. Thanks for the Video.
Great video! There is nothing wrong with the frame rate, it can go beyond what your monitor can output. That's not a bug. If you turn V-Sync on it will cap it at whatever the monitor can do but for benchmarking you don't want to do so you can see the full potential.
A wall-mounted pegboard setup would work great for freeing those components from the case for testing. Also, proprietary connectors are prime candidates for having their connectors removed and placed into standard connectors using the appropriate pin out diagrams. I did that a few times for fun. It's good to see someone using some older stuff instead of just going for the easiest method. Subbed!
That would be pretty cool, I have a lot of fun doing the wall mounted stuff too. I've never gotten into board level electric type projects, but that sounds awesome. I would really like to learn more about that, it's just a matter of finding time and what-not, but maybe in the future! And I really appreciate the sub, thank you! 🙂
I tried re-pinning an old Lenovo board once. Pinouts were really hard to find and only provided by a fellow tinkerer online. I ended up blowing up a PSU in the process 😂
If you game you should stream it. Maybe you could even do a pool noodle weapon mod for Doom! Go around smacking some monsters with the noodle would be kinda fun. lol
I would definitely like to do some streams at some point. And that sounds amazing, but pool noodle in Doom might be too OP. I mean, with a weapon that tremendous, would the game even be fair at that point? 🙂
You should check out the a380, it includes some games so it basically costs 20$. It is perfect for av1 encoding so you can screen record without load on the gaming GPU. It performs like a 1060
Sadly, the 7th Gen intel systems don't support Resizable Bar...and the ARC series really needs ReBar to work well. On a newer machine, the A380 would make a good GPU choice. I think I saw one on sale the other day for only $100...
Interesting, I have not come across the a380 before. If nothing else it will be something to keep in mind for the future. Will have to add that one to my bookmarks.
I absolutely love the wall mounted pc. If i can find a used gaming laptop cheap enough with a broken screen, i might do something similar. Obviously upgrading the cooling and hiding it completely behind the tv it'll be used with.
M.2 slot are usually missed in my Finds, but you can pick up small SSDs so cheap now its Awesome! I used friends & Fam info last year to pick up around 28 free Microcenter 240gigs lol I just ran out
What Windows build do you use in your pc and do you do additional tweaks? I usually apply Chris Titus patches to the latest windows 10 build, do you have your own tricks to get most out of these well aged machines?
wow i was gonna ask a question about this exact cpu..... everything I read about it say it should be able to go into a hp elitedesk g803 mini ??? Correct??? I just need the bigger power brick???
I've never tried it with that model specifically, but I know several of the older models were like that. I think it was an 800 G2 where I've seen that done. The mini typically ran the "t" variation of the CPU, but could run the standard desktop processor with a more powerful brick. If you have trouble finding definitive information you might be able to scroll through eBay listings and see if there are any there that are listed as having the full, standard CPU. That would likely be a good indication that it works for that model as well.
bruh Nivida GeForce experience will screen record.... I hope your graphics cards have drivers, u should use that for drivers, with a bonus of free screen recording
That's cool. I always just install the drivers without GeForce experience because I don't really like making an account for stuff. I know it's not a big deal but I'm a stickler I guess 🙂. I wasn't aware it could do screen recording though, that is good to know.
🙂 I do plan on doing some eventually. The only issue is that, even though the baseline system is inexpensive, the CPU upgrades are still a little pricey right now. But it is definitely on the agenda for the future, or otherwise if I can think of another creative or interesting vid idea I might roll something out.
Does cloud think he's just a piece of eye candy? I got news for you cloud... You need to get a job. And.. and clean up your room. At least clean up after yourself for gods sake. This isn't a flop house. Shape up or ship out cloud. Now take of your clothes cloud. No no... keep the sword. That's it....
Awesome little build there, absolutely a great little PC even today! Gotta love the 1080 Ti, absolutely amazing card.

Join the club, he needs to make membership cards 😁
Great presentation 😂, I especially loved the pool noodle outburst 🤣🤣🤣, informative and entertaining.. maybe you could work on a PC in a bag. 🤣🤣
😄 PC in a bag could be pretty interesting.
😂 We've all built a "shakey" machine at least once. It looks like that 1080ti could blow itself over with its own fans. 😂
Never thought Id come across an HP Office PC fan-boy....but here you are.
They're great as a basic pc, or even low cost emulation pc.
We exist
Heck yeah. Glad you mentioned emulation. I really like them for low cost, stand-alone emulation devices.
Gettin jiggy n gettin janky
Release the beast!
😄

Nice CPU upgrade. I also upgraded an Optiplex I used to have from an i3 to i7. What a massive difference.
Nice Build. I like that HP used a Standard MB Connector. I think Chairdesk needs a partner. like a utility table with wheels to build open air Machines that you can wheel around to keep Chairdesk entertained. Thanks for the Video.
That does sound pretty sweet 🙂. And thank you for watching!
…And the Chair Desk said unto Pharoh let my PC’s go!
Great video!

My Acer Veriton has an i7-7700, 16gb, gtx 1030, and an M.2. Its surprisingly a pretty nice every day computer for being a small form factor office PC.
You should check out the a380, it includes some games so it basically costs 20$. It is perfect for av1 encoding so you can screen record without load on the gaming GPU. It performs like a 1060
Sadly, the 7th Gen intel systems don't support Resizable Bar...and the ARC series really needs ReBar to work well. On a newer machine, the A380 would make a good GPU choice. I think I saw one on sale the other day for only $100...
Interesting, I have not come across the a380 before. If nothing else it will be something to keep in mind for the future. Will have to add that one to my bookmarks.
It is unfortunate that older systems don't support resize bar, but it would still be fine for something like av1 encoding
I absolutely love the wall mounted pc. If i can find a used gaming laptop cheap enough with a broken screen, i might do something similar. Obviously upgrading the cooling and hiding it completely behind the tv it'll be used with.
Heck yeah, good idea. Would be a great way to keep a busted laptop in circulation so it doesn't become eWaste too. I always like that kind of stuff.
@@LowcastleTech I get more than a few laptops like that, if it has a video out, it gets recycled into a desktop.
M.2 slot are usually missed in my Finds, but you can pick up small SSDs so cheap now its Awesome!
I used friends & Fam info last year to pick up around 28 free Microcenter 240gigs lol
I just ran out
heatsink southbridge that shiny bear chip
What Windows build do you use in your pc and do you do additional tweaks? I usually apply Chris Titus patches to the latest windows 10 build, do you have your own tricks to get most out of these well aged machines?
I always use his debloating tool and windows 10 ltsc from massgravel as well as the activation tool
@@appsaucetech I get my keys for about 2 bucks, so honestly, activation tools haven't been my go to in a long while
What?! no chair Desk! you are in trouble now
😂 It's true! I've been seriously lacking on the ChairDesk. SHAME!
you should have shamed it more with the pool noodle......
😄 You are absolutely right. And I would say that is just good advice in general!
wow i was gonna ask a question about this exact cpu..... everything I read about it say it should be able to go into a hp elitedesk g803 mini ??? Correct??? I just need the bigger power brick???

I love these "dumpster dive parts" style pc builds. Not everyone can afford the newest big bad RTX gpu haha.
does that mobo have standard itx mounts?
cloud has been a criminal , you should take a hand then noodle hiss ass red
