PrestonLK Ya, fired mine up for the first time in forever over the weekend and the fan was LOUD. Ended up repasting the CPU + GPU and swapped the fan for the "Nexus 70mm Real Silent Case Fan" that is $10 on Amazon. Now it is nice and quiet, well, a lot more quiet at least.
Mine I think the HDD was far louder than the fan (but its not the original HDD so can't blame Microsoft), but the clock capacitor leaked so it refuses to boot at all now. :(
@@reedernick Definitely check out that fan in my comment above, just copy and paste the quoted part into amazon. and put new thermal paste on the cpu and gpu. Those two things will cut the noise in half or more.
It enabled them to do a fair number of little mods from the get go and even more going forward $800 for a little in house one vs $40 per hour if they had to custom order fabricated parts
No idea why they didn't just buy a bending bar, but a sheet metal bender can be used on other projects in the future, so I don't think it was the worst decision. Also, 800$ isn't bad for that machine.
4:21 I'd argue that making it uglier makes it MORE of a sleeper. The craziest "sleeper car" I ever saw was a poop brown Mitsubishi Mirage from around 2000, looked like it just had one of those shitty oversized fake/cheap exhaust systems on it that only make it louder and not faster, but was actually a 600hp+ AWD sleeper that destroyed almost everything at the time off the line or on the street, lol. So yea, uglier (poop brown and ugly/loud exhaust you usually see on wanna-be fast cars) actually just made it MORE of a sleeper, not less ;)
In this case i think it makes it a more convincing sleeper pc if it looks as much like an xbox as possible. If you see an xbox and on the first look you see it has been tampered with the illusion to be just a normal xbox is already gone. I think the same would be true for the sleeper car. Maybe if you couldn't spot the oversized exhaust at first, it would be an even better sleeper car.
You guys have totally gotten me back into PCs and tech in general I use to build PCs all the time when I was younger I believe the last one I built was in like 2006 and that was with all second hand parts nothing fast nothing crazy I just did it for the fun but as I got older it got harder to afford to keep building and I lost my way while I still can't afford to start building again this brings back that part of me.

@@1776_was_great not really. i mean technically they were desktops, but they had mobile gpu's (non upgradable) which is probably the most important thing to be upgradeable (let me put it this way. an i7-860 can run any game on the market including assassins cread origins still (30fps but it can play it) a high end cpu of the time, but not the highest end, HOWEVER, the highest end single gpu's from that time 2009 (hd 5870/gtx480) cannot play modern games anymore. there are tons of games where the gtx 480 and hd 5970 cant even launch. (halo forge comes to mind) and gpu's get out dated much faster. (so for instance i have a friend with an i7-2600 and is playing the latest games just fine, but he wouldnt be playing the latest games just fine if he was stuck with a gtx 580.
@@volkswagenginetta Yeah, but the problem is it's nearly impossible to make a system small and affordable at the same time as offering enough room and power budget so the customer could just put a different GPU in there. And if it's big, then no-one will buy it because you lose the whole 'small consolelike box' thing. And you can't do fancy cooling things either if you need to be able to put any future new videocard in there either.
4 Years Later, The Xbox series s which has way smaller space than that original Xbox, and Linus did a good job of squeezing all the power in there, but the series s is on another level
It would be really cool if you did a sleeper emulator series where you turn old broken consoles into overpowered 4k emulators where each specific sleeper is made for that particular emulator.
I feel like linus' videos have gotten super interesting after he bought the cnc, as he can now make some really interesting custom hardware.

Linus is the only boss that would say good job after you took the company credit card and spent $800. lol
That's because PC building is the only job where spending $800 is reasonable solution to things.

4:21 I'd argue that making it uglier makes it MORE of a sleeper. The craziest "sleeper car" I ever saw was a poop brown Mitsubishi Mirage from around 2000, looked like it just had one of those shitty oversized fake/cheap exhaust systems on it that only make it louder and not faster, but was actually a 600hp+ AWD sleeper that destroyed almost everything at the time off the line or on the street, lol. So yea, uglier (poop brown and ugly/loud exhaust you usually see on wanna-be fast cars) actually just made it MORE of a sleeper, not less ;)
In this case i think it makes it a more convincing sleeper pc if it looks as much like an xbox as possible. If you see an xbox and on the first look you see it has been tampered with the illusion to be just a normal xbox is already gone. I think the same would be true for the sleeper car. Maybe if you couldn't spot the oversized exhaust at first, it would be an even better sleeper car.
Looks sick nice job. I was like “ I’m gonna do this, then I saw all the work you had to put in and I was like “..........”
You guys have totally gotten me back into PCs and tech in general I use to build PCs all the time when I was younger I believe the last one I built was in like 2006 and that was with all second hand parts nothing fast nothing crazy I just did it for the fun but as I got older it got harder to afford to keep building and I lost my way while I still can't afford to start building again this brings back that part of me. Thank you all so much for the amazing videos
Same, it just all turned to crap for me... until Linus came along with all of this newer and interesting shit.

This is the angle everyone should've took when Steam boxes were a thing. An actual desktop in a tiny form factor, not a laptop without a screen. Then people probably would've bought them.
uh, that's EXACTLY what they were
@@1776_was_great not really. i mean technically they were desktops, but they had mobile gpu's (non upgradable) which is probably the most important thing to be upgradeable (let me put it this way. an i7-860 can run any game on the market including assassins cread origins still (30fps but it can play it) a high end cpu of the time, but not the highest end, HOWEVER, the highest end single gpu's from that time 2009 (hd 5870/gtx480) cannot play modern games anymore. there are tons of games where the gtx 480 and hd 5970 cant even launch. (halo forge comes to mind) and gpu's get out dated much faster. (so for instance i have a friend with an i7-2600 and is playing the latest games just fine, but he wouldnt be playing the latest games just fine if he was stuck with a gtx 580.
@@volkswagenginetta Yeah, but the problem is it's nearly impossible to make a system small and affordable at the same time as offering enough room and power budget so the customer could just put a different GPU in there. And if it's big, then no-one will buy it because you lose the whole 'small consolelike box' thing. And you can't do fancy cooling things either if you need to be able to put any future new videocard in there either.

It would be really cool if you did a sleeper emulator series where you turn old broken consoles into overpowered 4k emulators where each specific sleeper is made for that particular emulator.
I love that the sponsor message is always 10 seconds so you can just double tap it away
These are things smart people keep between themselves so as to not ruin it for everyone else if they change it.

There is an extension on chrome that auto skips sponsors its called sponsor block

I feel like linus' videos have gotten super interesting after he bought the cnc, as he can now make some really interesting custom hardware. What I originally thought is Linus’s usual act of wasting money on over the top equipments turns out to be a very wise purchase. Now I want my own cnc. I’ll probably not gonna be able to utilize it as well tho.
What's cnc? (sorry for dumb)
TheGamer One computer numerical control, is that big machine he used to precision cut aluminum and wood.
@@haotianxie6684 I've actually been looking into designing for CNC and I think it is very doable for someone who is interested. Problem being it's a huge waste of money if you don't actually spend the time to learn how to utilize it properly. My local community college also teaches a ton of classes on CNC, so maybe look around if you do actually get one. 好运!
You got a spare 50 grand then I suppose haha
spakjoeXD haha thanks, I’ve also been looking in to this, and maybe I’ll tryout a couple design of my own on local Cnc shops to decide if I’m actually gonna invest in one. 谢谢
I don't get why they didn't just call it the RTXbox

Except a lot of those modders were filthy cheaters and thieves, so not exactly a great innovation.

Modded Xboxes could give scumbags autoheadshots, invincibility, etc: cheating.
Are you stupid or do you just not realize what modding led to for Xbox users? Dealing with s**thead cheaters and thieves. Modders singlehandedly ruined every CoD game multiplayer. I tried to play CoD:MW1 a few years after its heyday: a bunch of modding cheating bags of s**t

Should say "The most expensive Xbox ever!" $800 bender unit + old xbox + hardware + Linus's time.
That's not even close to the money Microsoft spent on tools, workers and development to make the original xbox
You kinda forgot Luke Lafreniere, the person actually doing all the work in the video lol. Linus is cool but he's the host, not the talent.
@@frozenthorn9619 what did luke do?
Isnt he making his company?
I can assure you that at the factories making the Xbox they had tools a lot more expensive than an $800 bender unit and spent a lot more man hours developing and producing their xboxes.

@420Ranger_Exile no. look up pcie x16 riser. Its something that goes into the pcie slot with a ribbon cable which, on the other side, has another pcie slot so the location is adjustable.
a watercooled one could be doable, but i think you will 100% need an external power supply

The problem with going as fast as light is that you must always live in darkness
Only those who live in Darkness know what it feels like to be out in the light.
That's not how physics works. Light always travels at the same rate for all objects in the universe regardless of reference frame. It is also physically impossible for an object with mass to travel as fast as the speed of light while still in this universe, as it would take the collective mass-energy equivalent of the universe to accelerate an object from 99.99999...% the speed of light to 100% the speed of light.
