- It’s finally time for the next chapter in the miniature retro gaming PC saga. And of course, no gaming PC is complete without a matching monitor! So in this video, it's time to complete the set-up with a monitor that is just as mini and just as retro as the as the mini retro gaming PC tower itself!

It's my dream to have an retro-style ITX case and monitor for my current PC setup. Well done!
should of added a heavy power bank in the crt shell to power the entire pc, or at least heavy metals to weight down the crt from feeling like a little toy ❤
In the next video, Odd & Obsolete makes tiny matching speakers…. then a mouse…. then a keyboard 😂
Nice work, as always.
It’s inevitable! :)
i've been thinking for ages about Retro/CRT style monitors and have been wanting to design and build one myself, so the joy i felt when i found this video is indescribable. would love to see similar content! thank you for sharing this with the internet :)
The Mac with a tiny CRT was hilarious!
Wow, I REALLY like this tiny computer ! I hope to find one on a flee market one day ! Awesome videos !!
Super awesome video and project, wow!
The perfect addition! This gives me an idea to model one after the old commodore 1702 monitor for my dad to go with his c64 mini.
This is awesome, and as always great content on your channel!
I stumbled across your videos from LGR and all I gotta say is I want more! More more morr! Great work
Loving your videos! It's amazing how far 3D printing has come, that looks like an injection-molded case!
awesome project and great planning
Fun projects and great work!
Now you need a pair of 40mm aliexpress speaker drivers and an amplifier module, to make speakers that are in keeping with the size (could cheat and make it a 2.1 with the bass hidden in the monitor case... magnet won't bother the LCD)
Really looking forward to the keyboard build!! :)
It's a perfect fit for the case, I love it
This is AMAZING!!! Awesome job dude!:D love that tiny screen on the power mac!:P looks so silly:D
Your 3D Printing Skills are next level. This is so cool!! Good luck with your channel. I really hope you're able to grow it into something amazing! Your content is very well made and interesting!
Thank you!
That is so cute. I would love to own a mini 98 PC like this.
absolutely incredible!
Wow that's great
Brilliant 🤜💥🤛
I've always wanted to build a modern gaming pc into an old crt case ..there were plenty of flat screen crt monitors towards the end of the crt era that would lend them selves to an LCD style screen freeing up all the space behind the screen....at hp we had 22" flat screen CRTs back in the very early 2000's....now I'm going to have to look out for a broken one.
That would be a really cool project!
Wow kudos
Just wanted to say thank you. I printed this, got the LCD in, and it's absolutely perfect. Using it on my desk for a little weather channel TV.
That’s awesome!
@@aqfj5zy It looks like a mini CRT on my desk that plays the weather channel emulator, that is the purpose. Sometimes things are built for form over function.
Very Perfect ❤👏
Good job! I wish one day by having a crt style monitor like yours!👍🏻
Sooooo beautiful
OMG I WANT ONE OF THESE!!
awesome
all you need now is small speakers to match!!
Yes. An inevitable addition :)
And a keyboard. Maybe a tiny model-M?
This looks beautiful, I'd love to see the extra screen you bought in a Commodore 1702 styled case, it would be perfect for theC64 Mini, as would one styled as a 1084s for the upcoming A500 mini! You could even fit a hefty power bank inside it to power both the monitor and the mini ;)
Miniature mice & keyboard when ? 🥰
holy moly, this is my dream to own
I'd love a mini crt!
You need a hhkb classic in ivory board to hook up to this, how sick
Looks like it would match pretty well, thanks for the suggestion!
It's cute, but a bit too novel for my taste. I always even in the early 2000's preferred a small, and quiet system, but a big display. I am even working on putting a PC board, into a 32 inch Sharp CRT TV, this thing weighs 116 lbs, but that is just the weight of the CRT the board of this TV is tiny, so lots of room to add a mid 2000 PC board, mini PSU
and the set has 3 line in inputs, and HDMI 1.0. I did enjoy this video. So thumbs up for creativity. Good job.
Sounds like a cool project!
@@OddObsolete It's only intended for gaming though. Emulators, MAME, NES, SNES, PS, bet yes it will be cool.
Nice job! Just wondering what color you used for the filament?
You should grab an IPS upgrade kit for your Gameboy Pocket (yeah, it's a thing, and they're mostly drop in replacements; I installed one in my DMG last week). ✌🏻
Your fitment for 3d printed parts is excellent. My first idea was, there is enough space in the housing for an optical drive, that didn't fit into the pc case.
Ha, yes, maybe. That’d be an interesting solution!
What are the screws and sizes?
What is the song that starts at 3:24. Thanks
where to get the stl files
Holy crap this is amazing! Would go really well with the 65C02 computer I am designing. What 3D printer do you use to create such large prints?
Thanks! This one just about fits in a stock Ender 3.
Best of luck with your project!
Do you share the stl printing files? The ITX case is nice, i like it. 👍😊
Yes! Had forgotten to add links to this video, but here it is: www.thingiverse.com/thing:5564208
The case files are also on my thingiverse profile.
Hey man wondering when you're gonna come back. Really wanna see a new video and those STL files
Hey, thanks for reaching out. The channel has been pretty much fallow during summer unfortunately, because of reasons. But I’m back working on stuff again now, and I haven’t forgotten about those STLs. So stay tuned! :)
Could you make a simular project for a CRT TV to hook up the classic/mini consoles to it?
Someone else already did, LGR made a video about a while back: th-cam.com/video/eDg5c_-eUr8/w-d-xo.html
Did you print the rear shell of the monitor with or without supports?
No supports, back face down
@@OddObsolete Thank you! I ordered the display and will start working on the print. I might modify your design to make it look more like a Sony Trinitron. Going to use it to display a WS4000 on my desk. Thank you for posting the STL!!!
any plans on sharing the stl files and a link to the lcd panel you used for the monitor?
I know of a very simular project from Laserbear.
I plan to share the STLs, but I want to make some adjustments first.
Added link to the panel in the video description.
MIni speakers and mouse next?
That would be fun!
Hi would you think I could use this with AV cables and snes
With a different driver board, I don’t see why not. But the one I use in the video only support HDMI input.
@@OddObsolete thanks a lot
I will just use a converter
Greetings from the USA! I love your channel, that mini CRT style monitor is really cool! What is the name of the computer program that you used to design it?
Thank you! The CAD program is called Fusion 360.
Any word on those STL files? :)
Hey, channel’s been in zombie-mode during summer unfortunately. But now I’m working on stuff again, and I haven’t forgotten about those STLs. They are simply a bit delayed! :)
it would be great to use all that empty space on top for the speakers
Might do something like that!
Should have bought a portable color CRT tv and 3d printed a case for it, that way it would have been an actual CRT :)
Wouldn’t want to ruin one of those though! But otherwise it would be really cool to have an actual CRT.
Dude give it some tiny speakers!
You really should replace the screen of the Gameboy with an IPS instead of misusing it as a stand, what a shame...
But at least it is in use, I guess 🤷♂️
Maybe I’ll get to that eventually ;)
Put the pc inside it
now: tiny speakers and tiny keyboard/mouse
When you can't afford a CRT...
But it isn't a CRT, so why not make a flat screen, those are still quite old now, I still have a very early one.
Primarily I wanted the CRT aesthetic, but I’m thinking about doing a flat screen version too.
Lol pcb800815
Haha! Hadn’t noticed until now. That’s hilarious 😂
@@OddObsolete I thought you did that on purpose ….. 🤥
