1998~2008 is really the golden era of hardware enthusiasts. sadly, might never come back.
What is wrong with RGB Era? :D
@@makembia A lot of computer enthusiasts dislike RGB computer parts.
rgb is useless
@@makembia There is nothing wrong with RGB even if it is so excessive as to be driven by a rainbow, the theme I think, that the products that are sold now, except for some that carry past glories, lack something, that touch that separates the excellence to the rest
@@hellraiserdarkstar1711 I agree. I think 2000-2008 parts had a lot more character than todays rgb and parts overall. Todays things are well engineered but they're so stylized and streamlined and characterless they don't really look like anything.
"-dude, check this out, i've got 40 RAM here
-40 gigs?
-nope, 40 kilos"
I have too much DDR2
Too
I hafe 6 DDR2 2Gb
I've got 60 RAM
60 Gigs not kilos
Sir, pornography is not allowed on YT!
Indeed. I'm reporting this. xD
Hi hi
This is hardcore porn
@@samilsam More like hardware porn.
That sounds better
I'll be showing this to my wife as evidence that my retro computer collecting is totally reasonable and has room to grow! ;)
😆😆😆
Civilian: What type of retro hardware do you collect?
This guy: Yes!
As an old school gamer and also retired full time tech, i pretty much touched to all of these. this to me is just unforgettable memories that will stay for ever. You have such an incredible collection man.
that vacuum tube motherboard if anyone wants to know it is the AOpen AX4B 533 Tube Motherboard
And a surprisingly difficult motherboard to find these days. I had an eBay search saved for years and only a handful ever turned up.
@@mfhkiwi1811 It's a pre amp, for "hi-end" listening
@@crazyfurnaceguy1229 it uses Realtek AC'97 chip lol
it's just a gimick. tubes should be looked at as "audio effect" anyways
@@Jaburu I know, in Taiwan, some of speaker Enthusiast they said vacum tube working with hi votage may be interference adjacent digital circuits . Also they said crab sound card's for vacum pre amp is pretty bad idea, it's not worth it to buy！😮
@@crazyfurnaceguy1229 most important part is the DAC (converter). if it's crap you allready have destroyed the sound before it goes into the analog stage. cheapo DACs have become much better though
man you're crazy. I was in heaven for those 30 minutes. Greetings from Poland
9:18 Brings the saying "your computer sounds like it's taking off" to a whole new meaning.
Really impressive collections you have! I was one of the PC hardware enthusiasts back in my highschool years (2002 - 2006), and your collections bring back so much precise memory, especially that "cpu burning without fan" part - I was crazy about that video clip from tom´s hardware, fantastic to see somebody was recreating it :)
Its great to see this beautiful and awesome collection, my hearth got strong when i see the tomshardware simulation...
Personally i have 2 retro dream builds:
2x1.4Ghz Tualatin P3-S + Server board with ddr1 and AGP, and second one is an socket 423 willamette build with 2GB Rambus + P4 2.0Ghz...
I'd almost forgotten all the crazy RAM coolers OCZ produced over the years until they went out of business
7:37 haha, i love that scene 😂
here is some extra for this scene:
th-cam.com/video/Dmk59bpyarQ/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely amazing collection,man those sets of unusual RAM modules are really an eye opener,gotta love that LED display on Corsair XPERT modules.
Best collection i've ever seen. I'm trying to limit my collection to few completed builds so I sell unused components.Your collection is worth a fortune :D
seeing this makes me regret selling my old stuff in the past... lovely collection :)
Freakin' Awesome,
You're an electronic historian.
I wish I had your collection. You can literally make a museum of PC parts over the years.
Best 25min 56sec i've ever spent on a youtube video. Only love reaction for this amazing collection!
This is what absolute happiness looks like!!!
OMG best collection, hey do you open museum ?
This channel is already a museum all-right. Just make more videos :) The benefit is that we don't have to drive anywhere to visit!
this museum channel is open 24/7
Some of our computing history saved from the rubbish/garbage/recycling centre!!! Awesome channel!
Because of you I went to get my old computer and install Quake.
i love your hardware collection i remember a lot of this stuff when i was younger
Info around my "THG" scenes.
Pentium 4
My scene is without any edit. Clean demonstration with some FPS drops. Believe me - not easy to do it. I tried many resolutions and settings. Quake went down many times.
Original THG video has edit every 4 seconds ... so you can think anything where is true. (nothing offensive)
Athlon 1400
This is only fun of course. If you want to see smoke :-) Make your own video with your HW ... this CPU is quite rare these days.
Still you can enjoy similar setups in HD quality.
I was afraid you will destroy that CPU. I'm glad you didn't.
I hosted a few LAN parties in my time and some unfortunate soul brought his XP1600 tower - the weight of the heatsink cracked the CPU when he shifted the case from horizontal to vertical...
I don't know what to say.
So much cool old and rare Hardware i've never seen.
I liked it so much. Especially the coolers and Mainboards.
I never thought I would see another aero, blower style heatsink again. Socket 462 was the jam
Fantastic collection. I myself am a huge fan of classic air cooling, so seeing so many golden orbs and many others made me teary eyed. So many fantastic items....
My God, I miss the '90s..
They were nice and good days..
17:22 seeing all those matching PCBs is as satisfying as finally getting a good matching set of armour in Diablo 2!
I want a room filled with PC parts just like this so I can look around and do shit, ya know?
some people might want to build engines, but this takes the cake for me.
It was great, unique time. Thanks for memories 😭
Really awesome collection. I applaud you at keeping this stuff when most people throw it away to be forgotten. This is like a time capsule of the late 1990's through 2000's of computer hardware galore. I recognize some of this stuff just from remembering it from old PCGamer magazines. Beautiful hardware.
my precious!!!
Go 100.000 you is awesome!
My jaw just dropped , and it wouldn't go back into place. WOW! Your collection is the king of all others.
Here's to another 20 years of collecting! I still need to expand my Precision collection but finding high-end old school models is hard.
This is computer heaven i don`t have near that much stuff but i do have some 90s computer stuff
Просто потрясающе. Я всё видео сидел с отвисшей челюстью) Кстати, хорошо, что ты не сжёг тот Атлон).
Prostě úžasné. Všechna videa jsem seděl s prohnutou čelistí) Mimochodem, je dobré, že jsi toho Athlona nespálil).
Special thanks for not burning your Athlon like in that video!)) Great video!
Отличная коллекция
You should seriously create a museum! Imagine setting up different system sorted by performance and age and be able to compare it to a modern machine with games or benchmarks. Would be so cool. I would pay 35-45 bucks to play around in a place like that for a few hours.
Those motherboards the glowed in the dark with a florescent light, when did they make those. I thought the color scheme for the purple one was dope looking af.
Anyways, cool ass collection. I'm jelly!
i think these were dfi lanparty boards
yep, it was my previous motherboard, lanparty DFI. Funny thing is, I've found they have this UV feature at the end of it's use (after 4 years). One of the best motherboards on earth. Best buy in Athlon64 era.
Whoa!! a 478 motherboard with TUBE valve!!! I didn't know such stuff exist!!!
7:30 at first I thought, oh, so it's the CPU's last frag? How sad. But then awwwww, you didn't burn it! Of course, with so much love for the retro hardware that the videos show, you wouldn't just destroy a working device.
rm
Some of the motherboards and other retro enthusiast level hardware you got will easy sell for 500 - 700 $ now and 1000$ in the near future. Amazing stuff
Nice collection dude! :)
I also have a long history with pc hardware.
My first processor was the 166Mhz Pentium MMX. I tested the jumpers' position by accident and overclocked it to 233mhz.
After that, I had given a little finger to everything. AMD K6-2 500mhz -> Athlon XP 1800+ (Intel Pentium 4 2.6Ghz HT for a short time) -> Athlon 64 3200+ -> Intel Core 2 Duo -> AMD FX 6100 -> Ryzen 1700 -> Ryzen 2600X and the latest is now Ryzen 3600.
There's even more story to tell about video cards, but that's not enough. I'll lift the hat for you! :)
Don't worry about the length or quality, it was an excellent slice of nostalgia.
Didn't keep any of my older stuff I think 939AMD is the oldest thing I have, though started P.c wise with Slot A AMD rival to Pent 3, I loved my time with that, seemed to last for years before it needed to be replaced.
9:17 when you have a computer with a turbo jet engine equipped, make sure to have your safety belts all the time
You never know when it takes off...
No wonder retro stuff is getting scarce... you have it all all at your house :D
This is like a huge investment, the value of this hardware will only raise
I have been 26 years on IT since build my first PC with Intel 386DX.
Looking at your video, its like found a warehouse with a lost treasure, very awesome collection!
Классная коллекция сделанная с любовью к железу. Всё выглядит идеально. Большое уважение автору
Да, молодец мужик, респект! Недаром Чехи вышли из Австровенгерской империи ) У самого коллекция, но все гораздо хуже оформлено)
It's not only that you have an enormous collection of RETRO hardware but that is also in PRISTINE condition!
its crazy to see the different design philosophy
Abit, Soyo, DFI, Epox, Aopen motherboards was...pure amazing.
I had that drive bay cig lighter back in 2003. one day it shorted out and smokes coming out of my pc like hell.
i unplug power cable and ran
such a dangerous contraption
Das is POWeR!!!
You could run whole middle East on that*
*1024x768
What a fantastic collection, I'm so jealous! You had me scared with the Athlon and the Tom's Hardware reenactment :P.
я сначала подумал , что показался прикуриватель на компе , а потом увидел , что нет , не показалось , да еще и пепельница рядом :)
I miss the days of the LANParty motherboards :)
This is disgustingly beautiful.
4:37 i miss those super shiny ram covers. Especially the silver and gold ones.
Man, you have a truly beautifull colection of hardware, it really should be in a museum. I mean that YOU should make your own museum, its too good!!
2:30 wow！vacum tube pre amp onboard！Never seen this before！😃
Edit：Damn！That is a ton of the collection！😆
it's an "audiophile" motherboard. ...Really. And I wonder why there's only one, maybe for mono sound...
But I recall a modern motherboard that had a couple of valves as a replacement of power regulation MOSFET/voltage regulation stage for an AMD Opteron 8-core. it did get the job done. Even my Tyan with dual opteron took a few seconds before bios screen to get all the caps loaded since it ate hundreds of watts.
@@SilverSpoon_ Unless it's something like a ECC83, two channels wouldn't be a prob
@@OsmosisHD I'm starting to get how these things were designed, actually operates pretty much like ICs or op-amps, where you need a galaxy of caps/resistors around your transistor to amplify, this is something else. Still it's really for the branding.
My monitor, an excellent HP LP2475w managed to get his PSU fried. Been looking for a proper Schottky diode (regulator) and a tube almost would do the job. It just warms up and reaches the right voltage too slowly the system refused to even power. I finally ordered a schottky diode and wait.
I think it took you more than a week preparation to show case all this and pack it away again. Awesome collection. Thanks for showing
@4:25.
Me: So how much RAM do you have?
RETRO Hardware: 40
Me: 40GB?
RETRO Hardware: No.... 40KG.
That classic Cooler Master Aero Cooler. I had one last time. You got a whole bunch of them!
Damn those DFI Lanparty motherboards look cool
I remember my LAN party board with fondness...
@@scotsparaman i sadly gave the only board i had away
Been on the look for one ever since
same
OMG, I LOVE early gaming motherboards, so much neon and bright colors..
Ulubiony kanał Retro PC na TH-cam! Best of the best! Pozdrowienia z Polski!
Życzę Ci miliona subskrypcji! :D
Mój także ulubiony :)
I find your lack of CRT-monitors disturbing)) Excellent collection hope it gonna expand even further.
I have two profi 21" in storage.
I find this collection perfect as is, it could probably be no better. It encompasses the best in computing thus far.
When you have so many ram sticks you just weigh them in kilograms instead of counting them. How do you keep track of everything? Do you keep lists? Looking forward to future builds.
No lists. 90% I have in my brain and 10% exploring by accident again an again :-)
I've been collection since 1992, and I don't have a tenth of the volume that you do! Impressive.
I'm very jealous of your collection! I wish I had the space and patience to build a collection, is that a cigarette lighter on the front panel of the first computer?
I know your channel will blow up soon enough, 100k will be here before you know it.
Same. I have to get by with a much smaller retro collection in my retro lab. However I do have a 386 with EGA and a large joystick collection
This is insanely beautiful
I'd be interested in seeing an in depth video about that motherboard with the tube amplifier on it.
I’ve never seen a motherboard like this. It’s interesting
Pha Q it's not that interesting, just a gimmick on the sound output stage, a quick Google search will get you all the info, no need for videos, much less any depth as there simply is none.
Incredible!! Maybe the most complete collection around the world!!! Congratulations, my friend!!! Keep the retro hardware safe!
that's a lot of retro high end graphics cards, start selling them on Ebay and after you will be able to buy you own house ;)
NO. MUST COLLECT.
I am completely stunned...
2:00 DFI Lanparty FTW
yooo,A Glow in the dark Motherboard 🤯
Felicitaciones muy bonita colección, que hermosos tiempos aquellos
I think that there used to be a lot of different experimental styles for pc hardware, (colours, shapes, etc). Now it is either minamilist or super angular. Outside the box designs now are hard to find.
God some of those ram sticks look amazing. Now it’s just all rgb crap...
Talk about a literal trip down "memory lane"! :-)
man awesome collection if i had the money id have just as big a collection :) and if my wife allowed it
me senti muito feliz porque tive a chance de ter uma parte dessas peças de hardware e muitas peças são desejadas até hoje parabéns pela coleção!!!
2:30 - мамка с тёплым ламповым звуком :-)
Thats the Reason why the PP in tschernobyl is Explode :D
all this memories, remember me things of the past...
Na aquela época era difícil vc ter um Pc foda no Brasil
3:55 Pentium 4 Processor, mannnnnn I remember that shit when I was a little kid, I only knew about it because of the Intel Sticker on the case. xDDD
Those are really cool motherboards with cooling fans
ISA Slots… Damn, I'm old :(
Easly in the millons worth of retro harware just breath takeing thanks for this beautiful tour

Mix all in one around my collection and presentation of future projects you will see here.
Some informations and facts about me/channel.
******************************************************************************************************
ABOUT ME
Me, Joe, HW collector from Czech republic, Europe. My work is in industry (absolut out off computers).
Collecting and playing with HW is only my hobby.
CHANNEL
I started this channel without any ambicions, goals, just for fun. Still it is fun and will be fun.
12/2017 registration
01/2018 I bought second hand camera on ebay
01/2018 after few first scenes I made ... wth? I need to learn edit them :-)))
01/2018 learning video edit from YT tutorials (thanks to all guys which made them)
So my edit is very simple.
03/2018 first videos :-)
I felt like "wth I‘am doing here with this bad work"
But let‘s see what guys tell me :-)
VIDEOS
Videos are like documents for me with some interaction with you.
Yeah my english is level 0, my voice is bad, I know it from the beginning :-)
I don‘t like commenting at all. I like action.
STYLE and POINT
So usually style is: START-THIS-THAT-BANG-BANG-BANG-END-SEE YA
You can/will see builds, unpacking, overclocking, tests and sometimes random things.
If you found any mistake, don‘t afraid and make comment (you donkey with this or that in time x:xx).
Next time I can do better job / other guys can learn too.
MUSIC IN VIDEOS
After problems because copyrights (not only me but lot of guys on YT) TH-cam made own music library.
Yes this music is not best but I like theme music.
COLLECTION
What you saw/see/will see in my hands (sometimes both left) is mine.
Simply result if you collecting over 20 years.
Everything has +/-. Minus is place - 4 full rooms of old scrap. Sometimes you have to enter container like homeless etc. :-)
WHERE DO YOU GOT ALL THIS
Simply all ways you know. Auctions, pick ups ... lot of luck, patience and time.
Seriously I hit "gold times" maybe ten years ago when 80% of people sending all this stuff to hell.
I was hoarding for few bucks.
The most expensive thing for me was/is POSTAGE :-) I can‘t spend xxx€ for one item - I‘am limited with money all my life.
SELL/BUY
Sorry nothing for sale, I‘am not doing deals. This is not marketplace.
DONATIONS
100x thanks for offers. But I‘am not accepting any donations.
Believe me - I‘am OK. You can support lot of other channels (Phil, Timmy, Pixel, Victor etc.) around all planet.
They making unpacking videos from donations and will be happy.
Simply watch and enjoy my home-amateur entertaiment videos.
Of course give me One million likes, one million sharing, one million everything :-)
Thanks a lot
I also thank to Victor Bart who recommended me in his FB group and Timmy Joe which made video about me.
Joe
Do you have a redundant ESDI WD 387 hard drive? For sale or exchange ?
Very impressive!
Flippen silicon/ PCB porn very extensive collection luv it..PS the glass tube is it a fuse never seen on mainboard?
u should open a gallery for the people to show your hardwork... good job
It is all nice to have a hobby or a passion, and I am computer passionated but I think you got a problem, this is too many to call it "a collection"
That's pure gold. Literally.
do not dare to sell any ofthem . these are tresures . retro pc part collectors khows what i mean . cheers from IRAN .
Ur from Iran? Y u no start ww3
Такое ощущение что это не конец всей колекции , я уверен что конец всей колекции распологается на - 9 этаже под землей )))))))) это очень крутая колекция. Многие комплектующие из колекции были сделаны в то время когда меня еще небыло ))
Теперь я знаю что рай существует... 😍
Thanks for sharing this amazing collection. Looks like you will never run out of content for your channel with all that stuff.
