How To: Turn an Old Office Computer into a Gaming PC!
In this video I show you guys how to upgrade an old office pc for gaming. I talk about what kind of parts you should upgrade in an older system and how to change out each part. This in my opinion is the best way to put together a cheap gaming pc.

My father office pc..he gave me
I change it into gaming pc
i5 4thgen
8gb ram ddr3
1tb hdd
120ssd
Then i buy..
Gtx1060 3gb 70$
600w psu LoL
this video did not help at all, my pc has a floppy drive for crying out loud
The LCD or computer ?what part off the house or school work n. Thank you
Found a i5 with 8gb of ram for $70!
What is the newest lga 775 socket cpu that’s kinda cheap
No get a 7010 with a 3570
Just built one
Bought an optiplex with a 3770 and 8gbs for 100 bucks.
New thermaltake psu 500w for 45
240ssd for 30
GTX 970 for 100
Had an extra 8gbs laying around so 16 total
Total 275, can’t beat it for the price.
It’s my birthday in a week and i’m wondering if i could play games at 1080p and a high fps with a AMD Ryzen 5 1400 and a Asus PH-GT1030-O2G GeForce GT 1030 2GB Phoenix Fan OC Edition HDMI DVI Graphics Card
I put an optiplex into an old 30s radio its looks great for aesthetics and can game, these machines are so cheap but can game like fuck
Basically all you have to do is buy a 8gb ram 2gb graphics card and your set
I got an hp elite desk with a i7 4770 3tb hard drive and 8gb of ram for 220 also 320w power supply
you should buy hardrives made in us
I’d use i7 3770
Have a nice gaming PC and waiting for the case to come in but I figured I’d watch this for fun.
Nah my parents pc is good it has got that intel i2 quad core and is 2times taller then in the video
Will RX 580 fit in optiplex 7010
So i bought an hz400 workstation that has a shity quadro 600,i was wondering, would a 500 w psu handle an rx 580 the cpu is a xeon w3565
I have one of these with the I5 2400 but i don’t have ANY money to get a graphics card..
How would you add a WiFi pcie card?
is a i7 3rd generation better or worse then that i5
For $200 you can buy one of these Dells with a 4790 or 4770. Then just drop in a SSD for $40 and a RX570 for less than $100
use a rx 570 instead
I’m using the pentium 4 socket! I can’t upgrade the motherboard
Me buys big ass gpu
My computer: nah man
Would this work on my Dell Optiplex 390? Feel free to ask for info about my PC. I want to be able to play games on this thing smoothly.
Maybe you can help me with updating my current system purchased in 2009.
Its a Cyberpower prebuilt system.
Intel Core i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz
GeForce GTX 550 Ti
16G Memory Kit DDR3-1866 CL10 240
Motherboard P8Z68-V LX
ATX Form Factor
12 inch x 9 inch ( 30.5 cm x 22.9 cm )
I hope I provided enough system info, if not I can provide more. Hope you can help.
Step 1. Break into someones house…
Hi Matt. Thank you for making and posting this video. Question: ¿Does the case you have shown contain a fan at the front face (blowing into the enclosure), please? I have a similar (Gateway) case, (with side perforations as your shown). And, am wondering if I can reuse it for some new parts (Micro ATX MoBo, Ryzen5-3600, some mid/low GPU [~$140-170]). (I like said Gateway case, as it has an optical drive bay at it’s front, and saves me $ from purchasing a new one). Any comments/suggestions welcomed.
I got a Fujitsu Celsius W410 that was no longer needed at work.
Nice little machine with an i7-2600 and 16GB RAM.
Thing is though, that the motherboard only supports those weird 16 pin power connectors, so I can’t swap the PSU for a bigger one, and the only relatively cheap motherboard I have been able to find for sale in Denmark (<$150) only has 2 RAM slots and extremely limited features (Biostar IH61MF-Q5).
As it sits now, it has an nVidia Quadro 2000 in it, wich actually requires more juice than the PSU is rated for….
I have an old HP Pavilion e9120y, would like to know your thoughts on if its worth upgrading?
Optiplex 7010
Slam in gtx 1050 or gt 1030
done
(7010 8gb ram ddr3, 500gb hdd and i5 3750 i think)
how bad is it if you don’t upgrade it?
i hate linus lol 🤣
if this is you, please don’t take it personally
your probably too rich to care about minute comments on youtube
I have an xps its a beautiful computer with beautiful components
except its too thin to put anything substantial in even tho i could probally slot an SSD and a new GPU and pretty much be golden RIP
You could of got the gtx 1050ti without needing to upgrade the psu for the same price 👀
Can you please send me a pc😘
is that a ddr5 graphics card?
What if I do this PC would I need a new psu if I add a GT 1030 please answer here is the PC link https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01LKOZEF0/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=A3SP75J8YELV2S&psc=1
Long time no see, lol. I’m going to have a Ryzen APU build video up this weekend and I have a bunch of other awesome content lined up for the next few weeks, so stay tuned!
have 16GB ra is good if you are planning to use Google Chrome
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
When you put back that junk CPU fan I stopped watching because it’s not upgrade anymore. Also you mentioned DDR3 chipper than DDR4 , for that old motherboard DDR4 not even an option to even mention DDR4 it’s not compatible LOL 😂
I am fine with my Pentium 4.
So I wound up getting a msi gtx 770 on Ebay for $60 and I thought it would fit but the drive cage in my 790 got in the way of it. Is the 770 that much bigger than the 760 or is it just the way Msi designed this particular card? I’m pretty sure I got the same 790 in this video. Mini Tower version right?
