Hi everyone👋 I really appreciate the support you guys are showing this video. It took quite a while to make and I’m really relieved that you guys are enjoying it! I’ll make sure to upload more videos around this PC. Have a good day everyone ❤

Nice build, it shows how cheap and accessible PC gaming can actually be. Sure you are not playing many triple A games on a machine like this but you get to choose from a selection of thousands of retro and indie games spanning almost 30 years, you have several lifetimes worth of games available to choose from.

So true. Through emulation alone up through the sixth generation you have a literal lifetime of games to play. Current games are largely overrated, outside of a few truly amazing gems.

I liked that video. That reminded me of myself back when I was 14-ish. Making PCs out of "garbage". And now I work in IT-Security and support. Keep up the work, even when YT dosnt take off: Hardware knowledge will help you the rest of your life.

"it supports DDR4 which is a little surprising" With all due respect, my man, DDR4 is nearly 10 years old now.

I did a similar project with a Dell Optiplex 7050 I bought for $70 (Came with Intel Core i7-6700, 32GB DDR4 RAM, AMD R7 450 4GB GPU, and 2 sata cables). While I did have these parts, I upgraded the GPU to a GTX 1050 Ti ($60), added a Gigabit Ethernet PCIe card ($20), and added a 1TB Nvme SSD ($100). If I calculate how much it would cost after all upgrades, it would be about $250 before tax. It may not be as powerful as my custom built PC, but as a secondary PC, it gets the job done. I'm surprised how close the performance is to my current laptop.

This video was so relaxing I love it

@@PikeletTech You will be the best tech tuber one day, keep going sir❤

I had an idea about buying one of these computers and using a bigger one fan 1650 card and a riser cable and turning the GPU sideways to fit and also modifying the lid a bit, cutting it and adding a grill, to add airflow. I got this brain storm of an idea from watching a video of a guy building a pc inside an Xbox, but I think the same could be done here with a few mods and 3D printed brackets perhaps.

Honestly great job for a build and you can actually run stuff decently, I respect it

for a build like this i'd actually recommend an RX 550 or a Quadro P620, both have comparable performance and are significantly more performant than the GT 1030 in my experience, while costing around the same used.

Good video dude, although that edit when you were showing the system off hurt my eyes. I would've looked for good deals on a used GPU and just had it stick out the side of the case but that's just because I'm all about getting the absolute most for my money, maybe a AMD Radeon Pro 3100 or 4100. But always nice to see people interested in the hobby and make new content on it

Well done bud! Nice vid and voice over work and the B-roll was good too. Can't help but feel that a used GPU could have given you better value. Like a used RX 560 4gb and also two sticks of 4gb dual channel RAM would also be better than one 8gb stick. Why not make a new vid to compare? I'm Subscribing, keep up the great work!

@PikeletTech

Thanks for the feedback. The workstation PC I bought was a SFF Pc which means I could only use low profile graphic cards. I did search for an Rx 560 lp, but where I live it’s very hard to get good low profile cards on the used market. You’re also right with the ram, I don’t know why I didn’t do that. The main reason why I got 1x8 stick instead of 2x4 is so next time I do a video I can get another 8gb stick to make it 16gb. I will make a new video soon around this Pc and definitely will compare benchmarks. Thanks for subscribing. 😄

@@PikeletTech I also live in a place where it's hard to find good used hardware and new components are very expensive. The 1030 perfomed very well in your benchmarks.

an extra 8gb stick for dual channel would help a ton, Great video! I would recommend next time getting a used kit of 16gb (2x8gb) For around the same price, very common on ebay.

Yeah for sure 👍

Good stuff. I also have fun with some SFF HP desktops/workstations.

If you're gonna use it for long term, I saw spots for a 2.5 inch drive, I would recommend properly screwing it in for easy movement or replacement later. Plus it looks cleaner. I would make sure to double check that the paint didn't plug up the front intake for air. And finally, I would recommend a better card than the 1030. There are plenty of cards like rx 450 that are leagues better for the same price. If you look around though on second hand market places you can probably score a RX 580 for a really good price. Overall, a pretty neat build.

Those are great little systems, I actually have quite the collection! My favorite was the G1 USDT, it was a challenge to upgrade the GPU because it uses the smaller MXM laptop form factor. Ended up being a good little Switch emulator!

Cool vid, how much would a 1050 low profile go for though? I think u would have gotten way way better perf w it

have one hp similar but i74790 gtx1650 75w ssd 16gb ram and increased my steam library at least with 25 games last year. To name a few, titanfall2, deadspace 2, gta5, aliens, all metro games, tomb raider (last one), wolfenstein, doom and so one also many i dy games. If you play games before 2020 its more than enough even for heavy games at 1080p

Good try! You can dab those smudges with mineral spirits, maybe do a 16GB DDR4 kit, and even an Arc a310 or RX6400 at some point if you want to play some PS4 level games. There's even a decent selection of i7-6700s out there for relatively cheap. Have fun!
