  • Welcome to my channel! In this video, I take the £2 PC from my previous video and upgrade it to see how much performance I can squeeze out of it without breaking the bank. Throughout the process, I encountered some challenges, but I overcame them to achieve the ultimate goal. Follow along as I take you through the steps of transforming a budget PC into a Windows XP beast.

    Some capacitors I saw needed replacement.
    Also you can flash the bios within windows, there are tools for that.
    Very impressive finding a 9800gt without needind extra power.

    Whenever I'm lusting over some rare GPU my favorite retro enthusiast pal is testing at UA-cam I remember that I have a 9800GT and that would be more than enough to enjoy fluid XP gaming!
    Interesting that your model don't even need auxiliary GPU power!

      Really is a great amount of performance running straight off of the PCI-E slot power!

    £6.99 for an SL9ZL? 🤦🏻‍♂️
    Those things are 10p @ CEX. I give them away as socket protectors when I sell mainboards on eBay.
