Building a PC with leftover parts
You don't need the latest and greatest parts to build a good computer.
You can often find good deals on used parts online or at local computer stores.
Be sure to do your research before buying any parts to make sure they are compatible and work.
With a little planning and effort, you can build a computer that is perfect for your needs.
I hope this helps!

GTX TITAN - in 2024
มุมมอง 722 หลายเดือนก่อน
GTX Titan: A Retro Gaming Beast? We dive into the legendary GTX Titan to see if it still holds up in 2023. This flagship card once reigned supreme, but can it compete with today's GPUs? We'll test its limits in modern games and benchmarks. Find out if this classic is worth revisiting or if it's time to upgrade.

  • @ItIsNot1984
    @ItIsNot1984 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    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.

    • @NoWayNick
      @NoWayNick 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.
