Idk what it is but back when I was high school going to the library and seeing the army of HP Compaq 6200 and 6300 SFF pcs just all powered on and running Windows 7 enterprise always during lunch I’d always go there to do video editing all the computers were rocking 8GB of DDR3 ram 2x4GB kit and usually either a i3-2100 or i3-2130’s. Good times that’s what’s started my love for building computers. And my old Computer science teacher gave me a old HP Compaq DC7700 that he just had sitting in his shelf. This videos brings memories back

I've had a few of those type of machines pass through my hands. I usually get a low profile Quadro K600 to slot into them for a little more GPU power. Slip in a decent i5, 250GB SSD and 8GB DDR1600 and use them for decent office/web/photoshop work.

Not sure why KZreadrs who do these sorts of builds don't have that as a go to card. The P620 is approximately the same as a GTX1050, and the P1000 is approximately a GTX1050 Ti (comparisons are a inexact). There's actually a low profile, single slot variant of the GTX 1050 in existence. But its from some weird Chinese company, only available from rather sketchy websites, and rather pricey for what it is. And yes, its a legit GTX 1050, not one of these reflashed fake cards.

I work at a recycling center doing PC test bench stuff. We just started scrapping/wholesaling huge pallets of 4th gen and older Intel stuff. It makes me sad seeing those i7 4790k PC's either get torn down or sold for pennies. Overall, you wouldn't believe what kind of stuff people just throw away.

I did something kinda similar with an HP Slimline of about the same vintage. I believe all of those slim PC’s use mini-dtx so use can use a mini-itx board, which is what I did. I then got a higher power Flex-ATX or similar power supply, Ryzen 1600af(when they were $100 or less), b450 board, 3600 speed ram, and a GTX1650 half height card. It’s a surprisingly capable machine! One of my favorite builds by far.

@pandemicneetbux2110

Honestly as much as I dunk on bad deals from the corpos for the performance, you really don't actually need it mostly because the average gamer is only playing 1080p, and a substantial number of people are still playing on 900p's or even 768p monitors which barely even need anything. You can even use such a complete piece of shit card as a 75w RX 550 and still be able to make most games playable on medium to low settings 1366x768 (but then why even would you at this point lol you can get better out of an iGPU afaik). So all that stated, yeah I'd still recommend that kids on a budget or younger folks in poverty mode (or hell old people on a fixed income) to look at old office machines and just know a little about them and you can still sometimes find a worthwhile deal. Like if you can get basically a 2500k or even an i7 3570 in an old office machine with the RAM, power supply all other stuff included for 100 bucks then go for it. I've seen some pretty decent mobos out there coming complete with a 4x4 or 2x8gb RAM kits and installed 3570k or 3770 in a z77 board on ebay for only like $150, which are clearly built and used by enthusiasts and some of these have CPUs that can easily be overclocked. The only thing I'd distrust is power supplies, but honestly the PSU is the only part of a Dell that's actually really good for some reason (maybe because as supplying major corporate interests, they know it not catching on fire or dying 2 years later is the one thing they can't get away with). So I'd encourage people to learn about the hardware and look into either that, or trying to cost compare to 12100f or 10300 or whatever systems on a really cheap board and cheap everything else with a used GPU, which I think should still come under $500 pretty easily. With an old repurposed office machine, often you can get away with only needing to buy the GPU, and a cheaper old one like a 970 or RX 470 or 270x or 980 or something like that shouldn't bottleneck while still being able to play most games on medium to high 1080p 60, depending which card. The only drawback is Dell boards are a complete piece of shit as you can see, and that includes the fact their BIOS is as awful as VRMs so there's no way to do overclocking.

Free Geek is a great place, haven't been to the Portland location in a few years though. The local re-use store in town would charge $50 more for that same system, ugh!

these is the exact pc that i bought 4 years ago for like 150 dollars at my local market man it was such a good pc i just upgraded the CPU with i5 3rd gen and damn man I did full film audio production projects on it being a poor freelancer. these pc really help me to pass my stressful days i just upgraded my setup with 13 gen intel and 3060ti but I still have these pc in my storeroom never goanna throw these away because it reminds me my struggling days.

You can still upgrade the board here because it does support MITX and Micro ATX boards.

The best IGP upgrade for a Sandy Bridge system is an Ivy Bridge chip. The Intel HD4000 series of IGPs was a monumental jump in performance. In Laptops especially, the M-series of chips had such balanced CPU+GPU performance that not even a U-Series Skylake processor was getting close to their performance.

I found this exact same machine at my European garbage dump, back in 2014... For free! Used it for 4 years as a nas during my college years, I immediately replaced it in 2018 after graduation and my first monthly income... The servers hostname was "Frankenstein", because that's how it looked like. It had 6 hdd's connected using pci-sata cards and molex to sata power convertors... Couldn't close the case due to the hdd's, so the disk hang outside the case..

Brilliant video! You really DawiSteined that little Acer :)

I had my good headphones on during the upgrade montage and I was groovin!

Awesome build to see that CPU + GPU pairing was insane 0% bottleneck for a full use of components 👏

ALWAYS make sure the grounds of the two PSUs are directly connected. You can very easily break when connecting two power supplies. Usually, the two using the same ground on the wall socket is good enough, but better safe than sorry. If your wall sockets happen to don't have a ground pin, its very important to interconnect that manually!

20 Runes lol I love your videos. Crack me up, only complaint is I want MORE! Hope all is well and thanks.

reminds me of the first PC that was entirely mine. An Optiplex 745 with a decent nvidia card that a friend "borrowed" from a cupboard at his IT job. The little graphics card put out SOOO much heat that I had to keep the sidepanel off the case and the HDD sat outside and behind the case to keep the drive from overheating. LOL

You just have amazing content, and i love how it veers just enough into the more "adult theme" jokes without jumoing into demonetization land. HOWEVER! The reason I'm leaving a comment is that in 2011 I built a system with that very processor! Asus motherboard, a screaming 8gb of DDR3, and a WD Raptor HDD. Originally I had it paired with a Sapphire Radeon card, but in 2014(?) I "refreshed" it with a deep cleaning, a sata SSD, and an Nvidia 1050Ti that i bought for... about what you paid for this Acer. It was a speedy, breezy little computer, and I think it's still down in the basement.

8:30 is why I love this guy, I do this a lot also and have been building a very long time. I think the GT 1030 is about to take the 750TI's spot as a budget legend. I really want a GT 1030 just to abuse it.

This is amazing. What about a Dell 710R server build?

Frankenbuild time! Fun watch

Absolutely love this channel 😊👌

I am a huge fan of the looks of this case. I have an old HP that looks very similar.

I still use a rescue HP Compaq Elite 8200 with the core i5 2400, upgraded to 16 GB of RAM, with a Nvidia Quadro k600 for a server. Sips power, you can actually game on it, and does all of my server hosting and streaming needs! And it was 50 bucks. I bought another one for my uncle, threw in an 2 GB Radeon r7 250 instead of the Nvidia Quadro, and he uses it for his old games after I installed Windows 10 32 bit on it, It never gives him any problems, and he's happy with it for years!

I have the same EK aio! It's pretty dope.

I didn't know you were in Vancouver! You and LTT should do a crossover, your humor would be awesome on there. I got 2 HP Elite 8300 SFF pcs from my last job that were gunna get thrown out. An old GT610 and a cheap PNY SSD and its a neat little budget 720p rig. Wish I could get a GTX1650LP... but $300 is steep!!

Looked like a hot rod motor, great creativity

I used to be able to pick computers out of our local recycle place - not supposed to take things but i would 'exchange' my junk for theirs.. last time I went I was caught and it didn't go well. Most of the items I have taken have worked - its a shame they let it go to waste... I have to figure out what times someone isn't there :)

I was wondering if you ever built a system with one of the Chinese created socket G34 motherboards seen often on Ebay. On paper they sound pretty powerful as the G34 CPUs available were good server units and are 8/16 core at reasonable speeds (>2.0ghz). The boards look pretty dicey, but you seem to be the King of Dicey PC Stuff and I thought it might be interesting to build a gamer out of a server CPU. Good video Dawid!

THE go to place for some proper hardware gore. Never got disappointed watching your videos, not even once.

i can say the mainboard form factor is of the flex-atx standard. so, not a custom form factor, just a form factor that has died quite a while ago.

hopefully you're doing a vid on the best pc from the recycling center, I'd be interested.

optimistically went for GTAV and 1080p,5fps... love it Dawid!

Just a thought, but couldn't a decent sleeper build come out of using a LP 1650s (or similar), perhaps paired with that i7? Had a good laugh at the behemoth looking TUF taking up half the size of that case though, reminds me of the ol' "shoulderpad size in WoW" days :).

Idk why he doesnt have more subscribers love the content keep up the good work

As much frankencomputering as you do, one would think you'd have one of those nifty 24 pin PSU jumpers that's wired to a lightup switch. This allows you to actually turn the jumpering on/off without touching a precariously placed "supplemental power PSU".
