- Making a full custom gaming PC out of a OptiPlex 3070 micro.
I had this 3070m and wanted to make a gaming PC with and this is how it went from planning, building, and playing on it.
Specs- OptiPlex 3070M
i3 9100T
32gb ram
1T SSD
RX6400 4gb
Pico power supply
Wi-Fi
Hand made case
Very unique take on a ‘Dell Optiplex’ gaming computer video!
Super cool video! I've seen people upgrade these with GPUs but never with a case swap. That's neat!
Never move cloth over that plexiglass, static it can create is crazy. Built terrarium with it and running cloth on any surface resulted in levitation of dirt particles and insects. Insane crackling
good advice
try using a buck converter for the difference in power of the gpu and main board. they are pretty cheap and easy to use if your familiar with working with pcb"s. A variable converter that has a dial to make the output exactly what you want.
I recommend getting a power meter tester so you can be sure and so you can test all components. a USB one is also a great one for testing usb devices.
I put links to Amazon *non-affiliated or monetized* links to equipment you might find useful. Ive been working on electronics for many years. I started in the console repair and refurbish scene in 2000 with PS1, which got me into hard(ware) modding after the OG XBox and PS2 came out. That got me into emulation, virtualization of hardware, spoofing, Hackintosh making, jail breaking/rooting iPhones, Androids, Windows Phones, PSP and Vitas, and so on, as they came out through the years.
I was always obsessed with trying to make desktop and CPU parts work together. When laptops started to have everything soldered on and mini desktops with essentially laptop parts in the mid to late 00's, it got me fighting the same issues I was with consoles. But cutting my teeth in my formative years on consoles and handhelds was an advantage for both the new soldered everything laptop era and the cellphone/tablet. Most everything I owned was second hand and usually broken or needing upgrades. Often having to find inventive ways to make something work or be better. Saving broken or dead boards to later use the good chips or IO connectors. Cannabolizing parts to make other devices better.
But this video reminds me of when I've done similar. Good work! If no one ever welcomed you to the community, WECOME!!! May you learn and grow from your experiences! Take breaks and dont burn yourself out. Whenever you might be able too, I recommend turning an old PC into a home server for running a VPN and where it's NAS, becoming your personal cloud. Possibly even running a few virtual machines with your VPN being through OpenVPN on openWRT, which turns it into a secured router and openNAS or similar, to make it a storange device. Then a light OS like Linux {Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Rasbian) or a stripped Windows OS, so you can do maintenance, update, etc on your personal cloud. OpenVPN is free for a user that uses no more than 2 simultaneous connections at a time. which adds to the security in my opinion. if one connection is always to the storage, which means only 1 more connection is possible. if you login with your cellphone, then you effectively make it impossible to access your data unless someone was physically there. But you'd encrypt your storage.
I hope this might encourage or help. Best Wishes my friend!

Back in 2015 I did this with an Lenovo ideacentre a200 (same form factor), m.2 E to pci x16 adaptor (in place of the WiFi adaptor) a gtx 960 and a psu so I could play Minecraft. The card run at x1 and performed about 30% less than what it would do on x16, but it was working well for cheap Minecraft. That was on a celeron 3215u and 16gb ddr3
Great job. That's a good idea for a budget build. Just and idea but a 20 dollar adjustable speed Dremel from harbor freight would really clean up those ports. I like how you got rid of the bottlenecks though. Very good video.
I used a Dremel haha the hard part cutting is it gets hot and melts the shavings
Thinking of cutting the IO ports out larger and 3d printing out inserts to give it a cleaner finish
@@NoWayNick That would make a great video!
Very cool man.
I started using the micro optiplex's to replace the SBCs in my home lab and they work great.
This is the first time I've seen someone add a GPU to them lol
Very cool, I think I might try it
I found one of these thrown out on a nature strip that turned out being an optiplex 7070 with a i5-9600, 32gb ram and a 512gb nvme ssd. The issue happened to be that the previous owner didn’t screw in the ssd and it was dislodged, leading to nothing booting up. But after a quick plugin and reinstall, it WORKS! What a find. Not sure what to do with it
Install batocera and make it a mini emulation pc. Thats what I did to mine. 😃
That's a sweet build to use from a pre-built board. Plus you have room for a dual slot GPU so it can upgrade to a RTX A2000 if needed!
Yes, the a2000 would be a nice upgrade and I thought of getting one but the 6400 was about 1/3 the price. GPU and CPU might get upgraded in the future. The whole point of the video is showing you can take a basic throw away PC and make something cool out of it that can play games.
The most important takeaway is that there is no case manufactured for your requirements, and you made a solution👍🏾
I have an Optiplex 5080, and I would've never guessed that something like this could be done with it. Amazing video, loved it !
RESPECT! for doing this man. I love cheap builds but i cant do them like you have done this 1.
so crazy how you made this work dude, totally love it!!, btw where did you get that copper heatsink or what brand is it, I'd like to get one for my optiplex
Was wondering this as well.
I found it on eBay from someone parting out optiplex computers
Very interesting, I'm glad youtube recommended me this video. Hard to believe it only has 1.5k views though
I love every second of this video. Giving a purposeful life to this seemingly replacement motherboard is great.
One question, can you share a high level cost of the build? With all the additional parts, GPU, etc - wondering if it would be more efficient to just have something like GPD Win or Asus RoG Ally?
Yes, I'm actually working on a follow up video that goes into detail about the design and cost.
Fun project bro! I'm going to show my kids.
This is actually beautiful
I love taking old pcs and doing stuff like this, Great video!
Love the ingenuity. Good job man.
Is it possible to share an in dept video of what you did please . I’m willing to watch every single second since I’m planning to do same with my Optiplex 5080micro i5 10th gen
I can come up with something. Also feel free to ask any questions you have for your own build
Looks great. Good idea on the case. I was thinking of doing something similar however putting everything into a used ITX computer case.
My gaming laptop was give. To me by a fam member who got a replacement gaminglaptop and a online friend of mine generously gifted me a replacement charger on Amazon so I could take full advantage of the hardware of the laptop
That computer is a titan designed to be used as a budget gaming pc.... im pretty sure esports and games like fortnite will do perfect.... this is a good computer for those weekends with friends.
"I got you a 3070"
"Yaaay"
"an Optiplex 3070"
"..."
this computers are the way to go for low power budget gaming . some part of the world power is expensive . so this will help
Wow the old optical style hard drive…😂.
Edit. Came out pretty good 👍
that motherboard has its own "pico power supply" built in.. it does the voltage conversions for you .. however i doubt highly it would be able to supply an extra 75W for the gpu so this solution is probably best ... good job
Trust me, I probed around for 12v and couldn't find anything to provide a good 12v source.
Trust me, I probed around for 12v and couldn't find anything to provide a good 12v source.
Cool idea for a video, I always wanted to install a higher in GPU in one of these tiny boxes. You did the work for me. Congrats. Liking and commenting to boost to video.
I love this taking lemons and making lemonade is the secret to live my friend.
i was thinking about this kind of build today and Voila!
dude this is amazing!!!!! i had to subscribe to see more of your custom videos. Keep it up man!!!!
14:45 that's uh quite an improvement 😂😂
I admire this bro, I been getting into putting your own PC's together and learning about what PC parts go with what MOBO's, I never knew there was so much to learn, I am gutted now I am poor and can't afford a stack of PC parts to play with and put together, I actually think there is a market now in a plug and play system these days, A pre configured motherboard with the CPU and Cooler attached, Windows installed on an M.2, So all you need to do is install the motherboard inside the case, Fans and PSU, Connect the power cables to the MOBO and turn the PC on, And it boots up, A half build PC, Like a kit PC, lol...
But doing vids like this is amazing bro, Educational in how to create and put your own little PC together, Amen bro...
You deserve more subscribers bro, so I subscribed, lol...
I'm extremely impressed! Nice job!
awesome case you built! love the form factor... thinking about giving my little hp705g4 a similar threatment. but thats a project for future me.
Start gathering a parts list together and start making rough drafts on how you want to do it. That's how mine started.
I like custom budget builds like this nice job.
I got two of them and I added for each one an A2000 6GB. Amazing 🎉
Imagine gutting an OG xbox and putting this setup inside it. Might even work with a PS2 and PS3 phat models.
you use a 24V PSU, with a 12V step down board. this is how you get both the 19 and 12V. YES, I UNDERSTAND the pc board is 19.5V the 24V won't hurt it. look for switching 24V PSU. they are more common in CCTV equipment and for stuff like smoke detectors or as supplements to other POE devices. anyway. some of them might even have a 12V leg built right in needing 1 less part, the 24/12V step down board.
this build is awesome, and it does work. just giving you the info if you want to try it using 1 PSU instead of multiple PSU's. lastly, swap out the cooling system you have for an AIO or low profile air cooler. it has a standard socket. so deliding, lapping the IHS or just adding a water block will allow this to be OC'D up a bit and if your going that route might as well look into the best used CPU that fits in that socked and REALLY push that board to its limits. and if you do go that route, then also, go with a intel arc LP GPU. its the fastest LP GPU on the market. that is very close in size to that 1 you chose, and it too takes power from the PCI only. up to 75 watts and is comparable in performance to a RTX 3050/60 the RTXA2000 is also a great option even on used markets.
I did all this to an older laptop. I did not bother putting it all in a nice case like you did, I was cash strapped, the screen blew out and I needed a fast cheap fix. and just wound up adding a little more into it after the fact seeing how far I could push it. I also did not have the advantage of a desktop socket. however since it was a TRU laptop cpu it was already de lidded. so I was able to use direct die cooling solutions. to see my CPU pulling a 120-150 watt TDP AN not over heat was amazing, when it was in the case anything over 65 watts and it would thermally throttle. this gave me a legit 300% power increase just because the chip was able to run at full power thanks to less heat. I was even then able to give it a high but stable OC.
just some ideas, the rabbit hole I am going down now is using Pelletier and other thermo electric cooling solutions, so far there is no benefit, it works, but at the cost of power. a lot of power, for not more performance over a decent AIO. once I figure out the condensation problems THEN I will be in theory able to to cool the chips to sub zero temps. right now my issue with the condensation is its freezing over then when the system is off there is ice built up in the system. if we turn the power down the loop over heats. and the difference between it acting as a heater or freezing over is less than 1 amp across all the chips. so power is not the problem its literally TOO cold to run. until I figure out how to remove the condensation. in a mini fridge you have an evaporator. no such thing inside a PC case. if I do ever figure that out Ill stop back by with links to my work. as for YOU, just use a desktop cooler 120/240 AIO 50-75 bucks and call it a day. your TDP is less than 100 watts anyway. any decent 120 AIO can dissipate more than 100 watts.
Love the project, it's the coolest "gaming dell optiplex" I've seen on YT. I imagine it idles at very low power, as those dell micro systems are tuned well for efficiency. I use an older model as a HTPC with just the igpu and it never pulls more than 15 watts in video playback.
Suggestion for threads - look into heat set brass inserts. You can either drill larger holes into plastic or design them into the 3d prints and press the brass threaded parts into the plastic. It'll save you a lot of headaches from cracking parts or wearing out plastic threads.
1:12 "It's an old optical style hard drive"....I can tell you're still nervous making videos. It happens man. Stoked to see another dude making use of these older mini pcs.
I did the exact same thing, but with a optiplex 3090 i5-10500T, added 32GB ram and a RX 6650 XT.
beginner youtubers with less than 1k views make the most interesting video ideas
Yeah lets upgrade the pc by tossing everything old out and putting shiny new in.😂
this is really unique
I tried to plug a video card into Dell laptop. The mini PCI-E slot being used for wifi was fake. It was just another USB port. None of the express lanes were connected. For giggles, i hooked the same GTX760 up to an Asus laptop, and it worked fine. Only problem, Asus laptop wasn't the one in for repair.
10:10 Hello and welcome. Great idea and nice case.
I also made such a computer only based on HP Elite Desk on i5 9600 + GTX1080Ti.
But to the point, you had to buy a different PicoPSU model, one that works at different voltages, e.g. PicoPSU-120-WI-25. Thanks to this, you have one ~19V power supply. Another thing is that if you already have an external 12V power supply then you don't need a PicoPSU at all, most PCI-E risers only need 12V.
P.S. Fallout NV seems to have started on Intel integrated graphics.
Any idea for a big w picopsu and power brick? Like 300w or similar
@@LPgmxDan 300W for what?
Write me what you want to power with this power supply
@@tristankordek I've been thinking about a high end system in a tiny form factor with a pico psu and couldn't find high w powerbricks
Any ideas?
@@LPgmxDan OK, there have never been PicoPSU KITs with such cosmic power, they were designed for completely different purposes and without the use of GaN semiconductors I can't even imagine that it could be designed in an acceptable size.
Another thing is that you can use the PicoPSU to power the motherboard and peripherals, and the processor itself (EPS12V) and the graphics card (PCI-E+6/8Pin) can be connected directly to a brick like 102-SDI300G-12-U-P219-ND ( horribly expensive) or ATS200T-P120 or their pairs (as Asus did with gaming laptops) if necessary, it all depends on the PC components.
In your place, however, I would rather bet on something like the SST-ST30SF or rethink the approach and build a separate housing for the graphics card and leave the PC with the original 1L housing. This terminal supports CPUs up to i9 9900 and it's ~65W so the rest depends on the GPU
Yes, I was looking into the WI pico, I think they were out of stock when I bought mine. Changing up the power signal flow is on the list to revise. And these m.2 x 16 adapters don't carry 12v that's why I needed the pico. I thought of using the sata port for 12v but the sata on this board only carries 5v and 3v and doesn't carry enough Watts through it either anyways. The next thing is going to be adding more custom mounted hardware so we'll see how that goes.
I hope you keep doing more "upcycling" builds. Channels like "Bits und Bolts" became quite popular in this genre for the same reason. It's fun and interesting to watch boring OEM business junk turn into a usable computer for multimedia and games. You took a fun approach to doing a home-made case. I could see your channel getting pretty big if you keep this style of video going as a series.
Would have loved to see it running some titles too. Solid video for sure
24y5y Northern lights light the sky This video good
Quite an interesting project, great job!
You can probably take that ssd apart and pull the short chip out of it, most are very small inside.
No way Nick! This is great! Haha
Would love to see more of this type of content! Would also be great to see how you built it
You basically made a PS4 pro. Lol. Seriously tho. Great work
If you are someone looking to do something like this, start with Lenovo Tiny motherboard (m720q, m920q or P330) and use a 01AJ940 riser, it natively supports low profile cards like this one. You can keep your M.2 drive and you get x8 lanes electrically from the slot.
you did a great job!
excellent video , make more like this. thanks for sharing. keep up the fantastic, excellent work!
Just ordered the parts to beef up a 3080m. Gonna pair it with an RX 6600 8gb. Can't wait to try it out. Thanks for the vid!
Thank you! I’m Crossing my fingers that I win this ebay bid just to try this and put it in a Xbox 360e
Very cool love awesome build, if you put a better CPU in it you would get a lot better performance.
That thing could do with a CPU upgrade to the 9900T but it's not worth it due to the insane prices for them.
Agreed, looked into it couldn't justify it yet.
Man, you got me thinking a lot with this project of yours. I hope you don't mind that I'm writing you a large wall of text. I just seriously lost track of time thinking of the possibilities. Here are my thoughts.
1. It would be better to do this with a laptop motherboard. I say this because laptops with broken screens and other damage can be had for pretty cheap. I mean the optiplex is okay for this, but it has limitations. Mainly that it is limited to pcie gen 3, and you're running that card with only 4 lanes. If you found a cheap laptop with 11th gen intel or higher, you should have pcie gen 4. That would mean your rx6400 won't be bottlenecked at all. You also will find a lot of laptop boards have more than one m.2 slot, so you could still have an nvme as well (it would likely run at gen3 speeds I think). I also think and not sure - it likely would depend on the particular motherboard, but I bet you could pull that 12v you need from the connection that goes to charge the battery. IF I'm right, that means no more need for two power bricks though there is another way I'll get to in the next thought. Lastly, laptops come with speakers. It would be even more added benefit to mount the speakers in the case as well. They're not the loudest speakers, but you'd still have a headphone output for something louder.
2. I tried really hard to think if there is anywhere on the optiplex board to pull that 12v, but I came up with nothing. Maybe you can find it going to the sata drive, but my guess is if you probed for it, you would find no voltage. A cheap way around this is a dc-dc step down buck converter. Search this on ebay "20A 300W Synchronous Buck Module DC Step Down Voltage CC Power 5V 12V 24V 36V". It is tiny, you can adjust the voltage output to 12v, it can handle up to 100w without extra cooling and it costs only $5 with free shipping. Should be easy to mount in that case using brass standoffs just like you did with the motherboard.
3. I like the look of the clear acrylic, but I would suggest 3d printing the sides that have the I/O. It would still be mostly clear acrylic, but you'd have the precision clean look that printing would give you for the I/O. Also you said you have trouble with your prints splitting. If you're not already using 100% infill, It could help with that. It was clever to use the iron to make your holes though.
4. Its just a cool idea you had with this. There is so much demand for mini gaming desktops. The prices for stuff like what minisforum is putting out is just insane. I'm surprised somebody isn't producing and selling this as a product. Seriously, look at what the damn things are selling for. Its ridiculous.
Thanks! This was V1 of this build, V2 I mounted a 13in screen to it (like a laptop) with direct power from the pico PSU and a gimbal HDMI ribbon cable, and redid the power supply I used a pico WR PSU so I could use the 19v and the 12v at the same time, soldiered 19v directly to the MB and included the power supply ID cable so the PC isn't throttled on boot.
thought of a broken laptop but couldn't find one locally.
Other projects I'm thinking of is a small MB (5x5) or smaller that offers mxm PCIE and putting it into a Xbox series x case or something smaller like the Intel M4 (the long skinny pocket version) and adding that new 3050 mini and making in into something the size of a brick 🧱.
But who knows, I just like to try uncommon form factors and components.
@@NoWayNickI assume thats a video for version 2? I'll have to look for it. Haven't been sleeping lately
EDIT What? It says you haven't uploaded anything since this one. You filmed that right? lol
@@ItIsNot1984unfortunately not yet, I've been out of country so I haven't had the chance to film/upload anything about V2 yet. When I get back I'll work on uploading V2
Just had a crazy idea. Build your own mini rack mount. Mount all your miniaturized builds on it. A pc for everything mounted on a knee high rack.
Also, I don't know enough but curious about voltage ripple and if that can be a potential problem. I guess if your gpu doesn't seem to mind it, it doesn't matter? No idea.
nice work brother!
Being pedantic here but hard drives are magnetic, not optical. CD/DVD are optical because they use a laser.
Looks cool
Drill a super small hole first, then drill to the size you want
That's awesome.
Well, the hard drive isn't optical. It is magnetic.
But it was pretty interesting. I wonder if a laptop with a little pcie slot can be mated to a external GPU using that.
The HDD line got you to comment too lol and of course, if you're laptop has PCIE you could do this too
The Intel Core i3-9100T @ 3.10GHz uP is shockingly fast (single thread), just checked it on cpubenchmark net I thought it was released 10 yrs ago but it was released in 2019.
Excellent video, it turned out really well so thank you for sharing. Would you be able to provide a link for the M2 adaptor that you used please?
I found mine on Amazon.
Interesting vid. I hope you misspoke when you called the old mechanical drive 'optical'!
Shhhh.🤫...it gets people to comment on it.
@@NoWayNick Hehe oops...
Couldnt you use a buck coverter to step down that 19v input to 12v output? Just punched in '12 volt buck converter' into google and a sizable list on amazon of variable input range buck converters with upto 120-240w @ 12v output popped up. They are typically listed as 'buck converter voltage regulators' and sometimes 'step down' on their sales listings.
I ended up using a Pico power wide range PSU. It's in my next video
That is super cool
awesome mod
One note, full copper CPU coolers don't offer better heat dissipation than aluminum or whatever else is common in cpu coolers. Any upgrade you're seeing in cooler performance is purely based on the design of the cooler, material contribution to temps is so negligible they are't worth mentioning
Copper and aluminium are both used as materials for CPU coolers. Copper is slightly heavier than aluminium and more expensive, but has better cooling properties due to its higher thermal conductivity. Copper is objectively the best material for gaming-grade PC heatsinks, but aluminium tends to be the most cost-friendly option and can still exhibit considerable cooling capacity given solid enough design. A copper base with aluminium fins is ideal because copper has a higher thermal conductivity than aluminium, and aluminium dissipates heat faster than copper
Also I noticed you don't really make videos like this. Spoiler: you should make more videos like this :D
Great idea
This is an awesome build! I have a 3050 and seeing you upgrade this gives me hope😁
Nice - good job.
cool computer i subscribed
As the guy who always talks about his Optiplex PC's throughout the years, I would like to say that an HP Prodesk 400 G3 is better than the Dell equivalent since it has an actual ATX mobo and can be found just about anywhere these days, check dumpsters or your junk drawer, everyone and their mother is throwing them out as of late. Currently using one in a cannabalized machine that is limping along with a Win11 install that I'm about to downgrade to a stable Win10 with Ubuntu dualbooting.
Will one of the antennas not be affected by being near the power area (noise wise)? Are any drivers needed for the m.2 adapter? And how much did this project cost you?
Use nimez drivers for more performance
Cool video, what pcie adapter did you use for the GPU?
A hard drive is not a optical drive. Btw great video.
Wow no way Nick
hey bro, I have a 3070 micro and I want to try this. Is there somewhere we can talk so I can ask some questions?
Just ask the questions here, that way if someone has a similar question they can refer to this comment thread.
Tried a few times a pcie adapter for GPU, but it never worked. People say because of built in bios block that prevent display adapters support using WiFi pcie slot. My adapter does not fit to m.2 drive slot, so can not test it. Then I lost interest in this kind of stuff. Micro ATX motherboards are almost the size of those motherboards and also we have power efficient CPUs to pickup from, so I can not see more sense in it.
No Way Nick 😀
that is pretty sweet
very nice.
Un vídeo más que interesante 👍🏼👍🏼
Now add a 3070 to a 3070.
Ayo this is dope. Do you have any footage of assembly? I have a Thinkcentre I would like to try this with.
Good video
hey mate love it got you an insta follow hope to see more of this soon
Do you have a link to the copper heatsink and upgraded fan kit? I have an optiplex 3080 micro, though.
I found it on eBay from someone parting out optiplex computers, good luck with your search.
Gtx 1650 works in tons of older rigs, but not Amd's equivalent? Why is that, some bios issue?
Does the card run at 16x 3.0? In the manual it says this supports x4 3.0 speed ssds
Correct the GPU will only use x4 PCIE. However it's still good enough for light gaming.
