I work in an electronics shop, repairing xboxes and playstations and computers, and you wouldn't believe some of the stuff that comes in the door, filled with dead bugs, random shit stuffed in the disc drives, some people just seem to hate their electronics lol
I do love how Acer bought eMachines and just recycled their case design like this. I got an eMachines EL1850 with an identical case. The only difference was the system specs, the rear IO, and the front plate. Makes me want to jump at any opportunity to get another just like it.
You can get the Apevia fans from Amazon for much cheaper than the AsiaHorse ones - PS they're identical. If you want to do some budget RGB, check out the LEDdess wireless RGB.
The openGL benchmark in Cinebench its useless, Cinebench is only for CPU benchmarking both single and multi thread. To test the GPU use Unigine Heaven 4.0
Once i got a dell laptop and it smelled funky so i opened it up and it was full of roaches luckily they were dead so i feel your pain i just threw it back at the recycling center
This made my gut wrench. Truly disgusting. I once picked up a dirty pc, and I just threw everything away except for the case cuz I needed it, but not until AFTER i hosed it down outside, with high pressure.
You probably could have used Optifine in Minecraft, resulting in positive changes in performance. Looked like you were having some troubles with screen tearing there at the beginning. I personally would have put the label back on the power supply, and only used the ONE Minecraft sticker on the outside of the case, instead of putting one on every six inches......
Timoti Chadfield how’s you do it? I have a Phenom II X4 955 laying around and my friend has an 870k too. Never realized they had to be unlocked, I’ll tell him how once you tell me
Modstek, Which Brand of GT 1030 did you use in this build? I have one of those Acer PCs laying around (less the roaches) want to do something similar to your build.
Can you show fps next time? Btw these videos are so cool but what I find really annoying about some prebuilts is even if they have enough space for a gpu and a pci-e slot they only have the mini metal thing (where the connectors are located)
Wow. That's pretty damn good for an 860K. I've had 5 of those go through my hands and the best of them was 4.3. How deep do you go into the BIOS settings to get an OC like that on a Wraith cooler no less. Was it a simple multiplier OC or do you mess with the C states and the BCLK?
Also how do you clean a roached PC? Mine is mostly likely roached right now because one of my past roommate forgot to take the garbage out when he left the house, and there were nests of roaches around his room, now all over the house. And I don't really want to bring that PC back to my home before I clean it well. I know you used bleach, but do you do the same thing to the motherboard as well as all other components as well?
1. Take out all the parts, it's gonna suck but you can do it outside with a can of compressed air if you want 2. Take the cpu cooler, case, fans, and maybe some other stuff and soak it in bleach and scrubbing it will help, ok i just read something about bleach dissolving plastics so just use water or use bleach at your own risk 3. You technically can wash a motherboard in water if you remove the cmos battery, but it might break it and i don't recommend it 4. You're gonna have to open the psu, maybe the dvd drive, graphics card 5. Clean psu (don't touch the big capacitors or watch a video on how to discharge them), dvd drive, graphics card, motherboard with alcohol wipes, compressed air, and you can use brake cleaner to clean electronics, just wipe it off with an alcohol wipes and don't use it on fans and other mainly plastic stuff (see this video for more info th-cam.com/video/cLnDxM4O_eg/w-d-xo.html) 6. Cpu probably won't be dirty, if it is just use alcohol wipes 7. HDD probably won't be dirty on inside, use alcohol wipes to clean outside 8. Buy thermal paste to repaste the cpu and repaste cpu (repaste other stuff if you want 9. Put together the gpu, psu, dvd drive, ect (if you opened them) back together (repaste if needed) 10. MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS DRY 11. Put all parts back in pc 12. And hopefully it works You don't necessarily have to follow this step by step idk why i wasted like an 1hr typing this
Dam, I would put in black plastic bag and put bug bomb in there and let sit for 24hgrs before I would bring that near your home man. Break cleaner works great for cleaning!
I am a fellow human like you because you are a fellow human just like me, also, you pretty much covered all the points, id mention too that if you dont want to bleach the pc, just give it a pass of compressed air, rub it with a microfiber cloth and a lot of alcohol, then a final fast compressed air "rinse"
Great video, Looks pretty slick, I'm sure a kid would love the computer. I hate roach infested computers, i got a original xbox on letgo and when i opened it up it had the same problem.
With that teeny tiny fan it's not going to run Minecraft at all...I have an Aspire AX3400G with Windows 7 and it has a full size fan and heatsink. I painted mine red and swapped out the blue LED's for red ones. But damn I didn't know that you were gonna replace the motherboard and stuff
Jordan Anderson Well I highly doubt that would make a difference.. A Pentium on a large heatsink and fan vs a i7 7700k with a stock which is a extremely small fan and heatsink.. i7 is still going to destroy the Pentium.
+James Cornwell 2 cores 4 threads there was a debate about this year's ago about it being a true 4 core cpu. I'm not positive myself but I do know I could get a core 2 quad to render better. it does with blender anyways.
Dude... did anyone told you that you sound like mr slave from south park? :D anyway great videos : ) i appreciate what you do with this old machines : )
Did you have a priest on hand for the exorcism? Also did you follow the Evaluation of US Federal Guidelines (Primary Response Incident Scene Management [PRISM]) for Mass Decontamination of Casualties During the Initial Operational Response to a Chemical Incident?
I think I got aids watching you clean that thing. Uggghh! I have bought some old dirty computers but roach bugs I draw the line. Only takes an egg or two and you got problems. Way to stick with it and looks great now that your done. Off to take a shower now! Ugghhh lol
Thank you for really doing the minecraft machine. I was the one who suggested it :) I wish you all the best, have a great year 2018 :)
You now have roaches. Roaches from a flea market. What a shame.
Hey, they were only $15, can't beat that, lol
hint: why dont you show the games running with MSI Afterburner when possible?
I work in an electronics shop, repairing xboxes and playstations and computers, and you wouldn't believe some of the stuff that comes in the door, filled with dead bugs, random shit stuffed in the disc drives, some people just seem to hate their electronics lol
Bugs love hot boxes
Its mostly an american thing.
Fantastic makeover. My skin crawled when I saw the "critters", but the finished product was amazing.
The roaches heard these pcs are filled with chips so they had to move in! Lol.
As always a nice looking pc@ finish! Been waiting to see the end result.
When stock, It looks like something that dell would build!
They do look pretty different actually since at the same form factor Dell's is wider than Acer's. But I get what you mean though.
Damn you're the man. I like the 870k choice. It'll still keep rocking for years to come. (typing and watching on my 10yr old laptop!)
I do love how Acer bought eMachines and just recycled their case design like this. I got an eMachines EL1850 with an identical case. The only difference was the system specs, the rear IO, and the front plate. Makes me want to jump at any opportunity to get another just like it.
Great restoration video! I am always left amazed by your various restorations. Out of interest what grade paper did you use to rub the case down?
i like the green color , made my hand itchy to do the same with my pc...
I have the same motherboard, except it was in a gateway case. The Mobo says Acer. Why? It was stock
Also would that motherboard fit into a mini atx/atx/itx case? I'm buying a gaming case and it says those
Also mine takes ddr2 regular size ram
gateway and acer is the same company
I removed the small fan and put a bigger fan which was put on the side panel with screws
Love your vids man. Looking to have a go at my first mod but sourcing a cheap base in the UK is a real pain in the ass. Keep up the sterling work!
Glad to see you back dude. Been too long between uploads.
You can get the Apevia fans from Amazon for much cheaper than the AsiaHorse ones - PS they're identical. If you want to do some budget RGB, check out the LEDdess wireless RGB.
You have the Midas touch when it comes to computers

That's the good thing about AND CPUs. When my pins on my Intel board got bent I was screwed.
From Roach Motel to a PC one can proudly display! Great work you do man!
Hey bro, love the vids, glad you pushed out this vid quick. I was hyped and you didn't disappoint
lol it's the next generation razer gaming pc
iNexilityRBLX coming in at a cheap price of 2999$
basically
Even a roach wouldn’t go near their overpriced crap!
You're supposed to leave the fleas at the market LOL Nice little build and well done to your missus for straightening those pins.
Make plexiglass window that will make it look complete in some sort

So they 1030 was overheating. Have you considered doing some GPU mod videos? Folks, has he done this?
Once I get a PC filled with cockroaches from a local Flea Market, the best thing to do is to give it a pretty in pink makeover
sure thats a quad core processor. you need to unlock all cores.. i did with my amd phenom ii x4 845 and the fps went up by 40 frames
Timoti Chadfield how’s you do it? I have a Phenom II X4 955 laying around and my friend has an 870k too. Never realized they had to be unlocked, I’ll tell him how once you tell me
wtf in cinebench it said amd athlon x4 870 quad core processor but the down row said 2 cores 4 threads wthhh
why didn't you take that apart outside?
How mutch for that green pc?
you really should have dissasembled the psu and cleaned it out... they are going to heat, and thats the hottest part
+Shawn Pepin I did
Love the pc case (stock) .
What's the model number?
next time wear either gloves or a hazmat suit......lol
Modstek, Which Brand of GT 1030 did you use in this build? I have one of those Acer PCs laying around (less the roaches) want to do something similar to your build.
Why 1.6.4, there’s a 1.12.2 you know that right?
3:08 Did you add thermal paste?
I had that pc for 2 years it is an Acer aspire xc-603
where do all these pcs go?
Give it an A88X board with 16GB of ram and a GTX1050Ti LP, boom you have a fast kaveri system
i had the same acer pc just a i5 4440 8gb ram and a rx 560 4gb
Anthlon and ryzen are both AM4 so try a ryzen 7 with a gtx 1070ti
approximately how much does it cost to mod a pc?
What's the final songs name?
Nice Job, Like the colors
Ever heard of gloves?
wmeno Thanos is not proud
Dose bugs are real also due to bios bullshit only the K series can be overclocked
Nice! Love the design!
what do you do with all these cheap computers you mod?
Can you show fps next time? Btw these videos are so cool but what I find really annoying about some prebuilts is even if they have enough space for a gpu and a pci-e slot they only have the mini metal thing (where the connectors are located)
Dude you did NOT get that 860K to 4.5 GHZ AND stable.
+Stanley Scalf actually it does 4.6ghz stable but thought would be pushing it.
Wow. That's pretty damn good for an 860K. I've had 5 of those go through my hands and the best of them was 4.3. How deep do you go into the BIOS settings to get an OC like that on a Wraith cooler no less. Was it a simple multiplier OC or do you mess with the C states and the BCLK?
+modstek asrock easy overclocking tool it drops the ram down to 800mhz tho and then used amd overdrive
unbelievable. congratulations you have won the silicon lottery. XD
Hey @Modstek what's the model of the Acer I'm curious into buying the same unit to maybe try some mods on it myself.
Should of put in a itx ryzen or intel motherboard in it
+Sauib Zeb ddr4 still pricey

Benjamin Cheng take apart and air dust
because you are a good man mate

I painted allot computers cases its better to use primer or a sealer the paint will stick much better bro but it looks good thank for sharing
Great video, Looks pretty slick, I'm sure a kid would love the computer. I hate roach infested computers, i got a original xbox on letgo and when i opened it up it had the same problem.
BTW,there is some China based VGA card makers,who made 1030's with dual fans 8)
I love sleeper builds.
really like the intro
Full price, what is it?
Nice work. Greetings from Turkey☺
Power supply?
I have my doubts it was the gt1030 over heating, it was probably the bug ridden power supply.
Nice computer by the way it turned out very nice desu :D
I once cleaned a power supply that literally had dried bird shit in and on it. I picked it up for $5.
+Christopher Bollinger lol
Corsair 600w still runs too.
whats the song at 0:03
With that teeny tiny fan it's not going to run Minecraft at all...I have an Aspire AX3400G with Windows 7 and it has a full size fan and heatsink. I painted mine red and swapped out the blue LED's for red ones.

Jordan Anderson Well I highly doubt that would make a difference.. A Pentium on a large heatsink and fan vs a i7 7700k with a stock which is a extremely small fan and heatsink.. i7 is still going to destroy the Pentium.
I bet he got that from a literal "flea" market😂😂
Dude cinebench was only registering 2 cores
+James Cornwell 2 cores 4 threads there was a debate about this year's ago about it being a true 4 core cpu. I'm not positive myself but I do know I could get a core 2 quad to render better. it does with blender anyways.
Video goes on for a bit too long, with unfitting music. But I did enjoy the first half of the video since it was fairly entertaining
That old motherboard has Laptop cpu and ram that's new fo me
Lol, check the ping he had in overwatch. 1200. Nice build btw.
But... but.. the cleaning is the fun part..
I can you give it to me?
Its for two reason:
1-i love minecraft
2-my pc is trash rignt now
Next time, use a can of brake cleaner (like Bryan in "Tech Yes City")!
Right
Just make sure to wipe off the brake cleaner after use and don't use it on fans and other mainly plastic stuff.
Also, non chlorinated brake cleaner is less harmful to plastics.
I went :-O 7:24. how can it be shipped like that!!!!????
Can you build me a budget pc please
Good job.
not a lot of prebuilts have 80 plus bronze unites. Most have cheap chinese knockoffs like star power or something
On Dell higher end units at least they use very high quality psu's. Always have.
Awesome as always , cheers.
But, can it run crysis
Can I have the original mobo?
+Benjamin Slayton I actually cleaned it and it works fine. I'm going to get a pico psu and do some kind of project with it.
Glad to know it works and is getting a second life. The old MOBO has an HDMI, so it could possibly be used as a basic HTPC or something.
BEWARE
You got bug Eyes
It uses laptop ram?
Mike Morris yup
I have the same motherboard it takes ddr2 regular sized ram
Dude... did anyone told you that you sound like mr slave from south park? :D anyway great videos : ) i appreciate what you do with this old machines : )
We need a terraria pc now
But why?
Why don’t you try installing optifine mod
Did you have a priest on hand for the exorcism? Also did you follow the Evaluation of US Federal Guidelines (Primary Response Incident Scene Management [PRISM]) for Mass Decontamination of Casualties During the Initial Operational Response to a Chemical Incident?
as always awesome video keep up the great work
Didn't see the first ten seconds and just a saw a pc in a sink xD
Fm2 is quite cheap these days
1 word :GLOVES???
washed my hands after watching this video
Should play minecraft windows 10 edition it runs much better
another great vid man
I think I got aids watching you clean that thing. Uggghh! I have bought some old dirty computers but roach bugs I draw the line. Only takes an egg or two and you got problems. Way to stick with it and looks great now that your done. Off to take a shower now! Ugghhh
lol
Should of been a fallout 4 one
