My grandpa had a MONSTER pc 10 years ago... one of the first i7 and a Nvidia gtx 280. He got a 16/9 full hd monitor back then. He still uses this pc and its actually kinda acceptable!
This video was a blessing. My father brought home an Optiplex 9010 after his company was gonna throw it out. It had an SSD card in it and an AMD RX 550 so somebody actually loved this thing. I used this video as a reference to upgrade it and I’ve loved it ever since. I threw in a single fan 1660 Super, 12 GB of RAM, and a 500 Watt Power Supply for good measure and it runs amazing. I’ve even been hitting 4K 60 FPS. Thank you Linus!
Amado Malaya he probably swapped it with a different mATX mother board that supports 9th gen Intel processor. But if you can get that you might as well get a new case since ventilation is bad on these dell opitplex
This is exactly how i started, a $60 used PC and a $20 GPU from a friend and I was playing overwatch and CSGO at 1080p with 60fps for a while. Eventually upgraded to FX series and a GTX 970 and finally to an R7 1700 and RX580. Looking to upgrade again but I can't afford it yet
I used to play games on a compact version of this. It was old when I got it, was never dusted or cleaned, and lived in a poorly ventilated corner for several years and just used integrated graphics.

@ジョージ様 Only low end if you measure it against the 10th gen intel parts and say i3s are low end and not mid range for MOST buyers which is what the target audience of this video is. Its also a weird product by the story of the video, what family member is either A, buying a PC like that, and B, upgrading it. Cause a PC user who buys something like that would not be upgrading for any real reason, the PC aint slow. Pop a SSD in and its a snappy user experience to send out those emails or surf facebook which is all something a PC like this would be used for. Its an unrealistic story, and an unrealistic part.
My friend has a Dell Optiplex 9020 and it came with 32 Gb of DDR4 Memory, an intel core i7-4790k, and 1TB of SSD. He upgraded the GPU from a GT 710 to a GTX 1660 Super and his PC is a beast on even some intensive titles.
Hey, that was my first major gaming CPU. Those Dells are actually pretty snazzy for upgrading... assuming it doesn't involve the power supply. Those things are a PITA.
TBH, my protocol for a need to leave... Do nothing, but do some RW shiz I need to do... End up getting wiped out anyway and just don't restart. If I get quizzed about it - I blame our dodgy rural system (we are still using COPPER WIRE!) for the "fail".
The 1650S is an amazing bit of kit. I replaced mine with a 3060TI after having it for just over a year, but I haven't sold it yet. It's almost, like, plucky, in how good a card it is for the 219 AUD that I bought it for.
@TURBSKI GAMING my first pc was the same but with an hd8570 and 2500. it would play cod4 and waw so i was happy at the time with it. those cases suck the gpu is upside down and anything decent size would hit the cpu cooler.
I just seen one like this on walmart app for 3hundred 60 dollars I'm thinking about getting it and sell my ps4 cause I can download games free without paying for it
@@wanhockteo i actually kinda rushed buying my pc back in june of last year trying to fit it in under budget as much as possible and could barely afford it. i ended up making some decisions like a single fan gpu, 500w 80+ white psu, and a cpu which was straight up defective(i couldnt avoid that tbh) that i regretted, but atleast i had a computer I could use for over a year. plus i ended up getting a 5600x recently anyway sooo.
I absolutely love the stylish appliance look of these. These new style flashy machines look like something my 7 year old daughter would buy and stick in her room for the colors.
The game runs at 150+ fps at the beginning on almost any half-decent four core CPU but it doesn't really get above that, no matter what hardware you're running, because the GPU literally has nothing to do..then once stuff start happening it easily drops down into the thirties and sometimes well below that too. Source: tested a similar GPU a couple weeks ago, wouldn't ever recommend using it. Despite Linus's benchmark saying 160 average it's actually closer to 40, which he would've noticed if he didn't leave after 2 minutes of gameplay.
FYI: League of Legends runs MASSIVELY better in a practice tool game than a real game. Effects and other champions have a huge effect on FPS. My school laptop gets about 200 fps (on medium, mind you) in a custom game but only about 70-80 in game.
Can relate to. Bought and used a Gt 620, while waiting for my GPU from RMA. After 3 weeks getting constantly BSODs, even at Win 10 boot screen, pulled the trigger and bought a 5700. Besides of one game no problems so far. Garbage Nvidia drivers...
I bought my PC 5 or 6 years ago (i5 4th gen). After watching this video, I bought a ssd with dram cache, made my 8gb(ddr3) ram 16gb and a gtx 1650 (because of budget). MAN!! My PC is real fast now. So definitely worth upgrading . Thanks linus😁😁
whats ur toughts on the gtx 1650? i have it in y current ( and first ) build and it hasn't been amazing but compared to my dads laptop from 2012 with an i5 integrated graphics id say its a HUGE upgrade. what do you think of it so far?
@@arson9009 well actually if u look at gtx series, 1650 is not very good choice(but currently graphics Cards are all stock out so its actually lucky to have a card in ur PC now).I would've rather bought rx 570(it wasn't available and it was a little old at that time)at my budget but gtx 1650 is good to go if ur gaming at 60hz or have a low budget (like I had).I also had a very old PC and 60hz monitor. This card is very good upgrade choice. I am playing on 60 hz and everything is just fine u can also game at 144hz at low graphics. I bought my PC 7 years ago it had rx 270 GPU. I upgraded(ram,gtx1650,ssd)few years later. So, as a first build gtx 1650 is not very bad choice at a low budget .Chill & Game 🤗🤗🤗
@@wantedlynx1482 Dram makes your ssd faster, it works like the ram for your cpu. It handles stuff with a small but super fast storage buffer. So while it does not increase your fps in games (for now), it does help with booting your system faster and you can fill up your ssd more without it losing preformance.
Just for reference, the 7010 and this system in the video, the 9010 both can upgrade PSU's without needing the adapter. There is also a workstation version of the 7010 the T1650 that can also be upgraded without any adapters or anything. You can throw them in a different case too. You have to get creative to fix the boot up errors by prying off the plastic housing that goes around the power button pin out and connect your new case PWR + and - cables to the first set of pins, place a jumper on the middle set and just leave the one setting by itself alone and the power button will work along with no boot up errors, you can also take a case PWR LED and wire it to the dell front case connector using the purple and green wire This will turn your power button into the HDD LED which will flash when you power up the pc and when there is any activity to the HDD. They only thing I cant get working that plugs into the motherboards is the HD audio for the mic and headphone jack. But on some newer Haswell and Skylake motherboards this is not an issue because dell finally opted out on the proprietary adapter for the audio on those boards.
My dad's been gaming on one of these 3010's for years. Slapped in an ssd and GTX950, works great! Though we're finally upgrading him to Ryzen this month!
I recently got an optiplex 790 from a friend and got a 400w psu and 250gb ssd from another friend who basically had it just lying around and then a gtx 1060 off eBay for just under $100. I went from running absolutely nothing to pretty much running anything I want in like a week. It was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Now all I really have to worry about is a cpu upgrade down the road. These are a pretty solid deal though if you're just gifted the prebuilt machine or something. I love this thing.
This video actually got me into desktop gaming. I've only had laptops but this made me decide to build a desktop on the cheap, and it works amazing. Got a 7020 with i7-4770k and gtx 980. Love it
A friend of mine got a granny's PC. Mint clean bcause was rarely used BUT turned out to be only a shittyy AMD APU chip from 10 yrs ago ---> so much fun with Half-Life series woohhoo
Cameron H I’m guessing you’re too young to realize how space age a smart phone is and how foreign it is to people even in their 50’s and 60’s, much less in their 90s. Try showing your grandma how to use a smart phone. It’s not that easy.
This has been my dedicated streaming pc setup for the last 2 years and has performed very well over this time to run OBS . SSD, 16gb Ram and 1650 upgrades helped in keeping a solid broadcast but it did run close to 100% on the i7 3770 most of the many streams undertaken! . The Dell was given to me to see if I wanted any parts and turned out to be a very capable machine. Replaced with an i5 12th Gen and Rtx 3050 build recently but the advice on this video to not write this old tech off is invaluable! It's now being repurposed to run as a dedicated ARK pc (it's the only Steam game I play) resulting in a very playable game on high settings even in 2022. Back in early 2020 the Gtx 1650 was only about £135 in the UK!
In my experience even hardest bots don't play well early game but in late game they always stick together and instantly launch all their stuns within ms of sight. Its easy to win with heroes that have AoE though.
lol, they haven't updated the AI in almost a year and it still crushes Linus. It has god-tier reflexes and last-hitting mechanics. It's fairly shit when it comes to the overall course of the game though.
Geez! Old timer here. For a blast from the past, I remember buying a 40MB HDD for $249! Much later when I gave up that system, I remember looking at it and thinking how slow it was, too. I can't remember the other specs, besides the capacity and the cost. Oh yeah, how about this: anyone remember having to first set the jumper pins?
Jumpers? Many, many times. Just out of high school I worked in a small PC repair shop and became known as the "sound man" because I was somehow the best one at figuring out issues with sound cards and setting jumpers to avoid conflicts. Not mention modems, serial ports, parallel ports, etc. Oh, and of course having to set jumpers for the correct speed/multiplier for the CPU being installed, master/slave for IDE hard drives, optical drives, etc. And don't forget about DIP switches on some devices.
I've been working in an electronics repair shop for about 8-9 years now. We always get dozens of these 3/4th gen Intel Optiplex systems and slap SSDs in them to sell as general purpose computers. Something we used to back in about 2016/2017 was throw 1050Ti's in them. With a 1050Ti in one of these suckers you could totally play pretty much any game on the market at mostly high or all high settings and still get a very respectable 40-60 FPS at 1080p. The other huge benefit of the 1050Ti for this task was it required no additional power. So there was no need to try to swap out the PSU, it just pulled what it needed from the PCI lane. At the time, you could get a VERY reasonable "gaming PC" for about $100 (for the Optiplex system) plus a 1050Ti, so maybe around $400 with an SSD? Most of the time you did not even need to buy Windows either, as you could just use the existing COA and key that resides on the case itself to activate Windows 10.
I have an old Optiplex 9020 with an i7-4770 so I’m definitely gonna give it some new life! Did the same for my dad’s old Sony VAIO laptop and man, that thing could hardly boot before and now it’s up and running quick thanks to an SSD instead of the old HDD and double the RAM it had off the shelf. It’s honestly impressive what old processors can still do today when you give them decent components to use.
@@Macauley7272 wouldn't be the monitor? Srry idk much about it but as far as i know, people cap it so it doesnt stutter their monitors, like having a 75hz but ur game is at 200fps you would have to cap it.
@@spawn_dawn3657 nah I play on a 75hz with 240 FPS I could play on 30hz with 240 FPS and it would be fine it’s all dependant on pc components so I used to have for example I had an apu ( a cpu that had built in graphics) but now I was lucky enough to get a 3080 and a ryzen 7 so I can cap higher ** I didn’t actually get them but you should get the point **
Would like to ask what your idle, average, and max cpu temp reading on your i7-3770? Are you guys using fan cooler or Liquid cooling? This video came perfectly timed. Kinda hurt though when it was called a grandma computer since I've been looking highly of this i7-3770 recently cuz I've actually been planning to upgrade my i5-2400(Gtx1050) to i7-3770(Gtx1060) since they have the same 1155 socket.

@@twb0109 keep in mind he played in Training Mode, not a real match, without more players. My Ryzen 5 1600 could do around 300 fps in Training or even Coop, but went down to 140ish and, as the game progressed, 80ish in real games, even with freezes. It was so funny to play The Witcher 3 2K Ultra and LOL at the same framerate....
I'm so happy about this episode. this is what i literally did for my first pc. its a monster pc for 1080p gaming got a 970 and a ssd. better than more new gaming laptops and 16gb or ram for it was only 25$.
I'm actually surprised this even happened. Those optiplexes and all of the sort have a license already. It's probably because he keeps moving his SSD around Windows doesn't like it.

160 fps on LoL.... thats more than the verges 2k dollar pc.
The game runs at 150+ fps at the beginning on almost any half-decent four core CPU but it doesn't really get above that, no matter what hardware you're running, because the GPU literally has nothing to do..then once stuff start happening it easily drops down into the thirties and sometimes well below that too.
Source: tested a similar GPU a couple weeks ago, wouldn't ever recommend using it. Despite Linus's benchmark saying 160 average it's actually closer to 40, which he would've noticed if he didn't leave after 2 minutes of gameplay.

Great video. Still totally valid. Worked for me (just picked up a 10 year old i7-3770 , stuck a 1050Ti in it, and it is surprisingly competent).
I bought my PC 5 or 6 years ago (i5 4th gen). After watching this video, I bought a ssd with dram cache, made my 8gb(ddr3) ram 16gb and a gtx 1650 (because of budget). MAN!! My PC is real fast now. So definitely worth upgrading . Thanks linus😁😁
whats ur toughts on the gtx 1650? i have it in y current ( and first ) build and it hasn't been amazing but compared to my dads laptop from 2012 with an i5 integrated graphics id say its a HUGE upgrade. what do you think of it so far?
@@arson9009 well actually if u look at gtx series, 1650 is not very good choice(but currently graphics
Cards are all stock out so its actually lucky to have a card in ur PC now).I would've rather bought rx 570(it wasn't available and it was a little old at that time)at my budget but gtx 1650 is good to go if ur gaming at 60hz or have a low budget (like I had).I also had a very old PC and 60hz monitor. This card is very good upgrade choice. I am playing on 60 hz and everything is just fine u can also game at 144hz at low graphics.
I bought my PC 7 years ago it had rx 270 GPU. I upgraded(ram,gtx1650,ssd)few years later. So, as a first build gtx 1650 is not very bad choice at a low budget .Chill & Game 🤗🤗🤗
what do you mean by ssd "with dram cache"? does the dram cache help you with pc performance?
@@wantedlynx1482 Dram makes your ssd faster, it works like the ram for your cpu. It handles stuff with a small but super fast storage buffer. So while it does not increase your fps in games (for now), it does help with booting your system faster and you can fill up your ssd more without it losing preformance.

Just for reference, the 7010 and this system in the video, the 9010 both can upgrade PSU's without needing the adapter. There is also a workstation version of the 7010 the T1650 that can also be upgraded without any adapters or anything. You can throw them in a different case too. You have to get creative to fix the boot up errors by prying off the plastic housing that goes around the power button pin out and connect your new case PWR + and - cables to the first set of pins, place a jumper on the middle set and just leave the one setting by itself alone and the power button will work along with no boot up errors, you can also take a case PWR LED and wire it to the dell front case connector using the purple and green wire This will turn your power button into the HDD LED which will flash when you power up the pc and when there is any activity to the HDD. They only thing I cant get working that plugs into the motherboards is the HD audio for the mic and headphone jack. But on some newer Haswell and Skylake motherboards this is not an issue because dell finally opted out on the proprietary adapter for the audio on those boards.

This has been my dedicated streaming pc setup for the last 2 years and has performed very well over this time to run OBS . SSD, 16gb Ram and 1650 upgrades helped in keeping a solid broadcast but it did run close to 100% on the i7 3770 most of the many streams undertaken! . The Dell was given to me to see if I wanted any parts and turned out to be a very capable machine. Replaced with an i5 12th Gen and Rtx 3050 build recently but the advice on this video to not write this old tech off is invaluable! It's now being repurposed to run as a dedicated ARK pc (it's the only Steam game I play) resulting in a very playable game on high settings even in 2022. Back in early 2020 the Gtx 1650 was only about £135 in the UK!

Jumpers? Many, many times.

Not mention modems, serial ports, parallel ports, etc. Oh, and of course having to set jumpers for the correct speed/multiplier for the CPU being installed, master/slave for IDE hard drives, optical drives, etc. And don't forget about DIP switches on some devices.

I've been working in an electronics repair shop for about 8-9 years now. We always get dozens of these 3/4th gen Intel Optiplex systems and slap SSDs in them to sell as general purpose computers. Something we used to back in about 2016/2017 was throw 1050Ti's in them. With a 1050Ti in one of these suckers you could totally play pretty much any game on the market at mostly high or all high settings and still get a very respectable 40-60 FPS at 1080p. The other huge benefit of the 1050Ti for this task was it required no additional power. So there was no need to try to swap out the PSU, it just pulled what it needed from the PCI lane. At the time, you could get a VERY reasonable "gaming PC" for about $100 (for the Optiplex system) plus a 1050Ti, so maybe around $400 with an SSD? Most of the time you did not even need to buy Windows either, as you could just use the existing COA and key that resides on the case itself to activate Windows 10.

just for context, the minimum wage is R$1045/month
@@this_is_patrick If it costs 1 dollar US, it will cost between ~1.50 and ~1.70 Canadian at a time when the exchange rate is 1USD is about 1.40CAD. Canada prices are not as bad as some nations, where the cost differential is more than our 10% to 30% over exchange still it is very shocking to watch someone talk about a "50 dollar" cpu/ram/sbc etc and you can not get the same item (manufacturer/part number) for less than 90 here.

Linus: "A GT 640 graphics card? That is *nasty!*"
Me with a GT 550M: "If it runs games, its fine with me!"
damn, that's...i think an integrated gpu has better performance than your card. why don't you get something like an rx 570(at least)? those are really cheap.
GTX 550 probably...

I feel for you, bro, I use a Intel Xeon 2.00Ghz on socket 775 with 4 Gigs of DDR2 RAM, a cheap SSD and a 550Ti and I was struggling to get decent framerates on Mass Effect 1 and CS:GO and, well, it tanked bad, so now I'm only playing Ferrari Virtual Race, CS 1.6 and Battlefield 1942.
well i played warcraft 3 on school computer to play lan
