- Not gonna lie, this video was a challenge to make. Filming on my old smartphone with terrible low light video quality was not the best idea I've had. Definitely going to invest in a higher quality camera and mic setup for filming away from the desk.

I remember my first build having a 9590 and it shredded most games at 1440p at decent settings. It got reeeaal hot but it was a beautiful cpu. Thanks for the video, glad others see that this old cpu was quite the underdog.
Always appreciate when people get the most out of some of the older architectures.
But that case - I've never seen it before. It's absolutely beautiful.
Now I want that case...
Thanks for the review on your classic FX rig. Just for fun I recently picked up a couple of FX rigs from my local craigslist. I have PCs all over the house, I mainly use the one in the kitchen when Im cooking and eating, and the PC that I use the most is the one in the living room for similar reasons as u have mentioned. I use the couch mainly to watch movies but when I play video games or do online shopping or checking email what I found worked best for me is to roll up my portable standing table and drafting chair and I bring it all the way up to the TV, I then plug in my wired mech keyboard and mouse. When my buddy comes over I have several wireless xbox controllers and we might play some of the couch coop games I have installed. For sound in the living room I highly recommend setting up a Home Theater AV Receiver with 2 speakers in front 2 speakers in the rear and a nice big strong Dedicated Subwoofer that bumps. The Home Theater Sound System makes a world of difference when your watching movie and playing video games. If you live alone thats when you can really enjoy the Subwoofer and nobody is telling you to lower it LOL. 👊😏
From one youtuber to another, great video man, keep up the good work!
My first build was with a fx6300 and a 750ti with 8gb of ram, I could’ve only dreamed of this build awesome pc man!
that was the console killer back in the day! I remember people hitting 60+fps easy in BF4 with rigs like that
Very nice build! I like the case, also glad to see someone else using 2400mhz kits as most benchmark videos using this cpu always use low speed kits. I have my doubts about the gpu though, I was thinking a 1660 super is really the limit for this cpu. You could check with MSI Afterburner + Rivatuner ingame to see how much it's using the CPU / GPU. But great video!
Usually sits around 60-70% depending on the game, most likely cause it's rendering at 4K.
🙂 for older computers performance has to be something below a 1080ti, that being said I do recommend looking at video cards that have 8GB of Vram or higher, that way the video game doesnt have to worry about using some of your old and slow system ram as additional vram which is No Bueno. The 1660 Super has only 6GB which is too small of vram but you won't notice performance loss if you use it on a brand new modern motherboard but on an old system I would avoid it.
I remember when the FX-8150 was released, I was disappointed and ordered a Phenom II X6 1055T after I saw the reviews. So I skipped the whole FX series myself.
Holy hell, I love the look of the build and how neat everything is, Nice job man!
I had two 9590 rigs. One with a Sabertooth 2.0 and the other with a ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z. Love that Thermaltake case.
Nice build man!
In 2014 I built an FX-6300 and R9 270X 4GB build :) Cool to see, I remember the system overclocking well.
Recently sold one of these in a storm trooper case. Dark rock 4 and a 200mm fan up top. X3 intake 120 at front/bottom and a rear exhaust. ASUS M5A99FX R2 motherboard. HX1200i. Rx 580 Aorus.
Somebody offered me £400 so I said yes. Was a big beast of a machine was sat in the corner for years at that point.
Can't remember the oc but it was chasing records.
Too many projects and too little room sadly.
Awesome look at the FX 9590! I appreciate the detailed breakdown of the system, rationale for certain decisions, and how it was pushed.
I remember buying my old FX 9590 when it was first released, I cooled it with a custom water loop that had a radiator bigger/ thicker than yours. It had six fans on the radiator in a Push/ pull configuration, absolute Beast running X Plane because it was my Boeing 737NG simulator. I kind of wish I hadn't sold it, because it was a good part of AMD's history.
Nice to see this older generation tech still being put to use. It is indeed a clean build. Wish there was a way to polish acrylic. Id still have one of my older cases if it wasn't for the plexi scratching so badly.
Its funny how the casuals talk about how the fx series is totally obsolete and un usable. Jays2cents did a videos using a fx 6100 and said it would still perfectly usally. Hell its people(myself include) who think the original quadcore 775 are still usable. 9590 is a very strong cpu. Performance wise anyone who has one would be happy with it. Only insentive too go with somthing more modern is too pretty much get the same performance but more efficiently
🙂 FX runs somewhere between an i7-870 and an i7-2600K, as long as your not picky its still decent for many video games, though I suggest sticking with cards that have 8GB of Vram or higher for 1080P High / Ultra
The only motherboard that was available when I built a system with that cpu was the Gigabyte FX990 Gaming...I put a Thermaltake Water 360 AIO on it and was very happy with the performance. I sold the cpu and motherboard but still have the AIO cooler!
the radiator is upside down
Nice build. Look great!
Fun fact... The FX 9590 was actually the *fastest CPU back in 2013 (*stock turbo frequency 5 GHz). Not the highest performing though.
Nice machihe. When my system was AM3+ based - it had a FX-9590 as well.
subscribed, you have an awesome small channel. The camera is a bit grainy and is on the table so you're shaking it with your arm a bit, but I think this is a cool concept
Yeah I need to get a new camera and proper lighting for when filming away from the desk. I appreciate the support!
this build looks amazing
Super cool and clean FX rig, man. As you commented down below, you are correct as one should not build something like this today as $/performance is insane (or have big D cash to throw out the window) if you tried but it was a build from years back that grew with time. I have an fx 8300 (@4Ghz/gtx 960) chilling at one of my TVs as well but was my #2 build from '15 as is 1 of 6 pcs. Best of luck with the channel, man
Gamers don't die - they just re-spawn.
CAP your FPS man. More stable frames, less dips, RivaTuner RTSS
This CPU was classic. I was kind proud to be owner, but at the same time I hate it
Not a bad setup this - watercooling that 2080ti means you can get a lot of performance out of it - matching an RX 6800 is doable.
Not with this CPU unfortunately 🥲
Nice custom dustfilter !
I bought this monster CPU yesterday for 7$. Yes. No mistake.
I actually tried the Asus TUF Sabertooth 990FX R3.0 motherboard. Sad to say PCIE 3.0 on the Sabertooth Gen3 is still faster overall. The M.2 HD on your setup is only half as fast due to the slower PCIE. Also your video card has a lower transfer rate. Happy to compare benchmarks anytime.
For normal operation of a computer, you'll never notice a difference between 1600 mb/s and 3500 mb/s because running windows doesn't require that high of a transfer rate. For 2080ti you may see 2-5% increase if that. And at the end of the day, the CPU is the largest bottle neck on GPUs where PCIE gen speeds would see measurable differences. I'd argue getting higher clockspeed on CPU, memory, and north bridge is more important.

This case still looks nice!

A tip for filming next time, many TH-camrs start off with a GoPro to shoot video before they go for a more expensive high end camera. A $200 GoPro Hero 8 for example (don't have one but I was able to shoot a music video with it a few years ago) is a nice, somewhat modern GoPro (released 2019) that can shoot well in 4K or at other resolutions. If you go for used, you can get one for around $150 or less from what I can see on eBay. The GoPro Hero 9 was the first GoPro with a front facing screen (something the DJI Osmo Action had first).
**I'm just seeing now that the DJI Osmo Action 3 is only $200 new and it's a more modern action cam than the GoPro 8 since it only came out second half of 2022. The Action 4 apparently only came out a few months ago so the previous one had a price drop. But yeah, you don't need to spend more than $200 for a nice little modern cam to shoot 4K videos. Hope this was helpful.
That's a nice setup btw. I didn't start building until mid 2020 after the first round of quarantine. I went with a Ryzen 5 2600 only because the 3600 was sold out everywhere, and I paired it with a GTX 1660 Super (was concerned about drivers with RDNA 1 but later realized they were fixed by then and I also found out Linux and Nvidia don't play well together smh). Currently I have a new build with a Ryzen 7 7700X and an RX 6700XT this in Windows 11. I've had almost no issues with the AMD graphics, and the CPU and RAM are tuned so I'm getting up to 5.55 GHz on a couple cores and my Geekbench 6 scores are in the i9 13900k range for single threading. Buildzoid's (from Actually Hardcore Overclocking) SK hynix Zen 4 RAM timings really helped.
I'll look into those camera setups. Thanks 👍🏿
Had to google the 9590 cpu. 11 years old? Can it still play any modern games?
Yes, but don't spend your money to buy it. They are way too expensive for what you get. You need high OC, optimized OS, and custom settings in modern titles to make the experience worthwhile. This is also not my main system, which changes the expectations I have for its performance. I'd recommend using the 10th Gen Intel or Ryzen 5000 platform for great gaming performance on a budget!
I've seen many videos that try to answer the question "can this old Intel CPU still game?" But seldom for these pre-Ryzen AM3 CPUs, so this video is an interesting find to be sure.
Nice video, fix your audio it playing in mono. Headphones
You're videos are great man! Only thing I recommend for now is a louder and crispier microphone and a step up on the camera. You'll do great in making videos!
Yeah definitely wasn't happy with the video quality from my old smartphone. It's terrible without natural light. Glad to see you enjoyed it anyways, and I'll definitely have to invest in a better camera setup.
If you run Linux on this you would be surprised at how fast old CPUs like this can actually be in games and everything else. I did it as a test and got insane results, in most games I was getting more than DOUBLE the FPS rate I would get in windows.
Thats a damn shame if its true. Not the first time i heard this tho. I want too try one of the light version on windows like atlas.
@@GunMedalGleam windows, even the lightest versions, are an absolute resource hog for your CPU. I use the lightest version of ghost spectre yet the fps gain on linux was so insane i couldn't believe how much windows was hold my fps back in cpu-bound games, and my CPU and is not even that good for games, but on linux it felt like i was on a 7800x3d. To be more precise, I use Garuda Linux. The UI of OS is so beautiful it makes me want the PC all the time, the colors, the icons... it's so beautiful, and of course all the customization that is not possible on windows.
@@POLARTTYRTM i have zero experience with Linux so it will be a bit of a learning curve, but i will give it a try. You have convinced me.
@@GunMedalGleam Garuda is actually super simply and it has a lot of GUI stuff just like windows, setting it up is really, really easy, pretty much anyone without Linux experience can do it. It's an OS oriented for gaming so it is very straight forward.
Niceeee
wtf is that case i need it
i woulda used it as a Windows XP Retro Gaming PC but with a GTX 960 or Titan X
The hardware is much newer then xp. Xp is 2gb ram, single/dual core processor territory. Why would he do that?
@@GunMedalGleam FX platform is terrible for anything Modern uses and yes i know XP is much older, but u can use up to 4gb of ram with XP with some degree but there is XP drivers with even AM3+ boards so why not
nice bro
my i5 12600kf 10.5Ghz OCd(neo ddr4 2133) ram RX580 would crush that system
😰
good stuff brother, i appreciate a nice good oldschool high end build with good quality, pretty good video, keep it up man, at the time I had the intel core I7 4790K build with a sabretooth z87 with a gtx 690.
side note- i enjoyed this video more than mainstream tech tubers
case name?
Thermaltake view 27
the build is beautiful but why not upgrade to an AM4/5 platform? that CPU is holding the 2080Ti back
IIRC he said that he built it 6-7 yrs ago, so that would be just before or just after first gen Ryzens were released. And AMD was charging premium prices for those Ryzens because of their high performance. So if he was able to get the FX-9590 and mobo and ram for a good price I can see why he would build it if his budget was limited. My main system is STILL a FX-8350, Gigabyte 990FXA-U3-R5, 32GB Kingston 1866, Radeon R7 360 2GB. But I built mine 10 or 11 years ago. I don't play AAA games on it; just some occasional emulation of old stuff. I'm still using win7 because I despise all later versions. While it would be nice to have a AM4 or 5 system I don't have the money atm. Luckily my 8350 can still handle my daily tasks. Having 32GB of ram helps a lot I think. Obviously I have an SSD as my boot drive, even though it's "only" a SATA drive because the board is too old to have NVME slots. SATA SSDs are fast enough for me. I have 3 2TB MX500s for fast storage access as well as regular HDDs for larger but slower storage. My system runs 24/7 because I run Deluge for torrenting, and I also download tons of stuff from usenet so I am also running Forte Agent and Multipar. Then of course I have to have my file manager Total Commander and Firefox open at all times, as well as Media Player Classic Home Cinema to watch things I don't feel like putting on a thumb drive or 2.5" HDD to play on my 4K TV. All this multitasks fine on my 8350 and it's not even overclocked. I live in Florida so the last thing I want is to generate MORE heat. I wish he had put a Kill-A-Watt meter on his system because I would like to know how much power that system consumes.
@@SirReptitious 😊 thats interesting, i recently picked up a couple of FX gamings rigs just for fun, yes I have several Kill a Watt Meters, I use them for my main rig and i use them when im benchtesting. May you Watts be Low and your Frame High.
can it runs ddr4 ram??
No, ddr3 ram
I give you a like i know why?!. & i dont play games.
Have a good one dude!! (;
Fastest 9590 on the planet... ***proceeds to play it on a TCL TV 🤦♂
Problem?
@ I mean to each its own. Just doesn't seem like this build is used to its full potential playing on TV.
So my goal was to have a computer to use on my TV because I enjoy computing from the couch. While it makes more sense to purchase something more modern that is better suited for it. I enjoy building PCs as a hobby and like older hardware. Most of the components were sitting in storage from my first gaming PC build as I have new systems at my desk setup, so I figured it would be fun to use what I already have and see how much performance I could extract out of it. My thought process was to prove a point you don't normally see on TH-cam: I'm essentially showing that even the worst possible scenario, slowest gaming PC at highest resolution, still delivers a usable gaming experience. So by comparison, the viewer's experience would be far better, as they are more than likely using better hardware in a more balanced setup.
I hate how people get so caught up in the next new shiny flagship graphics card and think what they have is obsolete. Hopefully this video helps change that narrative.
@@c.a.s.t6782 I think he was referring to the low refresh rate of TV's compared to gaming monitors.
@@MrNota500frame rate≠refresh rate. You can still benefit from a high frame rate on a 60 hz screen.
>The FASTEST FX 9590 Gaming PC on the planet
I don't think so.
I see no LN2. Otherwise you can go other 7,0+ ghz wit this cpu.
With costum water cooling you can go 5,3+ghz.
He said in the video that he was NOT including LN2 cooling; he was only counting off the shelf parts that could run 24/7.
Maybe watch the video and listen next time?
@@SirReptitious costum water cooling with cooled water (Chiller 2000) or compressor cooling are 24/7 and shelf parts.
The title of the video is misleading.
@@vigilant_1934Where is the info of the test system in the video or description?
@@ecchichanf It's custom, not costum. I thought it was a spelling error but you spelt it like that twice. A costume is what kids wear at Halloween.
