the PSU was added in later, 80+ certs didn't become a thing until after like 2007 IIRC. the Asus IDE cables are reused, the ECS board is terrible. Socket 754 tho, so if you have the 50 bucks to shell out for an Athlon 3700+ 754 chip you're in business.
I'm thinking I may reuse the case and power supply, but replace the board with a newer AM2 board and an Athalon 64x2 of some sort. Would be better suited for windows XP era games. The crappy ECS board might get reused for a windows 98 build or something. I know the board is junk, but I still kinda like it for some reason... Probably because it is purple...
I'm expecting my son in laws 4th gen i5 pc through the post today and he informs me that it's filthy. Not too happy about washing the mobo in the shower/bath though.
Way more original and bolder than today's boring PCs

Can you tell me what song is playing between 16:25 and 18:20 in the video?
You don't know how hard it is to find decent mood music these days.
Where's part 2?
