So sad these companies are greedy and creating e-waste by making their products proprietary. These machines have so much life in them. Good job trying to keep it out of the waste bin even though its a bit jank. 😂
the reason the cpu cooler didnt work is bc it was a 3pin not a 4 pin, i have an aftermarket cpu cooler that works just fine but its 4 pin, also i have an aftermarket case fan and it works too. so if your gonna do aftermarket fans, cpu coolers etc make sure its 4pin
Different pinout for the fan and need to rearrange wire to correct one, causing shorting on motherboard, i know because i got to change dell stock cooler to intel stock cooler
you should really try the HP Prodesk 400 G3 its basically the same as an 600 G2 but it has 0 proprietary annoying things, it has detachable IO Shield, 24 Pin power connector, a second USB 3.0 connector next to the 24 Pin and im not sure but i think it has a detachable CPU Cooler Bracket and of course it has stantard M-ATX screw emplacement :) (Edit : The second "USB 3.0" connector isn't actually an USB 3.0 but a "COMB" connector, it's some HP adapter thingy but you can still buy a 90 degrees adapter for the usb 3.0 that's blocking the GPU :)
Love the videos man! I was just wanting to see if you got another optiplex case swap video and you just uploaded!!! I’m trying to recreate this for an optiplex 7080 with intel i7 10700. Btw you can jump the middle two pins on the power switch connect and it will get rid of the error. The jumper is like 3 usd for 200 of them.
The fans in the case dont connect to the motherboard, only to the power supply with SATA and MOLEX cables. The motherboard doesnt have connectors for that unfortunately
@@crimsontechyt oh well today my 24 to 8 pin connectros came in and i case swapeped my dell optiplex 9020 to my corsair 4000D and i took ur advice used the power switch but mines only woked on the far right and the mobo fit amazing another thing to note is that the hdd n ssd fits nicely only thing u gotta worry about is the front i/o usb-c and the reset switch not working appearently or atleast not fitting next to the power sw but other than that the pc works amazing and dont forget the temp at the front
Honestly its a better idea to just get any standard cheap atx or m atx mobo to transfer the cpu and ram into for a chipset that supports the cpu In this case a h310 mobo would have done just fine Its like 50 bucks or so used on ebay Maybe even cheaper if u look in the local marketplace a Bent pcb No front io No io shield no cooler upgradibility And gpu limitation to the point that you had to choke it with a riser Are enough reasons to do so What you spent on the riser/ psu adapter and cooler to get a backplate are enough to just get an another board with i think

I just bought a dell optiplex 7050 and windows 10 was already installed but how do I connect to the WiFi. I can’t use a Ethernet cable since my WiFi router is too far away
If it has a wifi card installed, you can simply download the necessary drivers from Dell's website. If you dont have one, you need some kind of wifi adapter to be able to connect to wifi
No, that was a random Chinese nameless brand, Xilence is pretty well known in Germany :) I've used their PSUs tens of times, and haven't had any issues so far
If the PSU stays on, the PCs fans and RGB will stay on, so it needs to be turned off when the PC turns off. And when the PSU is turned on, the PC boots immediately. So there's no need to use the power button :)
My best pc i ever had was a lenovo idea pad 110 that i got from my mum after 10 years of use and i still have it it can't eaven run roblox smooth on the lowest graphics settings i am saveing up for a better one but geting only like 20$ a month and not eaven guaranteed is not very good i have 6000 kč which is like 240$ not eaven close to a pc
I used the backplate that came with the new cooler. You can also just buy a backplate seperately, but the cooler was only 5€, so it wasn't a huge deal to me.
Lmao, this whole build went downhill haha. Here is a few tips. 1. If Use PWM fans for the cooler and exhaust, then you don't have to keep stock cooler and fan. I've put a tower cooler into my optiplex with itas original case and have no issues. 2. 8th and 9th gen optiplexs cant handle long gpus. You need to get a case with vertical mounting or buy a vertical mount (may need to cur the pcie bars). 3. Most optiplex cant handle GPU larger than 2 slots. 4. Jump the middle two pins of the power switch with a jumper to get rid of the power button error. 5. You can buy make dual USB to internal USB 3 to get some of the front i/o working. 6. You can fill the case to hole holes for standoff. 7. 1660 super/ ti is the highest card you can run with dual sata to pcie 8pin with the 260w psu.

What a waste of time and money turning a shit computer into an even shittier computer and wasting all them good parts on it could have built a better Ryzen for a few pounds more , the last Ryzen 5 I built cost 210 pounds so it could have been better but it did the job for a family member.
The fact you said "Pounds" tells me you live in a first world country, where second hand PC parts are plentiful and cheap. This is not the case for most of the world, where you'd be happy to even find a CPU anywhere. This build is for people who have one of these prebuilts, and want to make a game PC out of it.

Whoever came up with the idea to produce adapters for a prebuilt case swap was a genius!
It was invented by Chinese companies
So sad these companies are greedy and creating e-waste by making their products proprietary. These machines have so much life in them. Good job trying to keep it out of the waste bin even though its a bit jank. 😂
They're making it harder with each newer generation, but i'll keep trying to prevent these machines from seeing a landfill 🫡
I was getting scared you weren't going to flip of the Dell for a second XD
men sad, men open youtube, men see other men build pc from optiplex,men happy 😮😊
without a word said this was one of the most entertaining build videos ive seen
Thanks! :D

I did the same thing with my dell optiplex 5040, and I changed the cpu cooler, and it worked fine. No errors.
It differs per model. They made an issue out of it starting from the 8th gen CPUs unfortunately
this video is very entertainin, keep it up bro👍

Personally I put a Lenovo ThinkCentre motherboard in a Dell Vostro case just to have the 1660 super fit
I had a similar OptiPlex 3060 for which I was able to create a diy psu adapter.
Made an Acer veriton M4630G/ Ftw3 EVGA 1080ti abomination, It was easier to make (so less fun D:) But boy does it work, especially on linux...
Oofff that's a big boy, awesome! :D
@@crimsontechyt Thanks!
Had a lot of fun with your extrem build. thanx.
From where do you get the background music tho? ( Cuz its cool and copyright free 😅)
I use Epidemicsound:
share.epidemicsound.com/w3rg4s
I think a full $15 vertical mount(since yo have the riser already) would fix your gpu issue for this specific build.
Nice video but i have a question. Should i buy workstation like z4 series? I saw a z440 with 700 psu and e5 1650 v3 for 40 bucks should i buy it?
Wouldnt recommend old xeons
even that normal optiplex is enough for me
That is awesome this build came out very well!

will someone tell him the sad news
erm it is
i mean you could''ve just placed all of these parts in the OptiPlex itself right?
after cutting the case to fit the psu and gpu and making it hot and noisy, sure
STX power supply
hey man is me again question about the chasis fans did u use an adapter or? did the case u put the parts in did there wires work with the dells mobo?

Honestly its a better idea to just get any standard cheap atx or m atx mobo to transfer the cpu and ram into for a chipset that supports the cpu
In this case a h310 mobo would have done just fine
Its like 50 bucks or so used on ebay
Maybe even cheaper if u look in the local marketplace
a Bent pcb
No front io
No io shield
no cooler upgradibility
And gpu limitation to the point that you had to choke it with a riser
Are enough reasons to do so
What you spent on the riser/ psu adapter and cooler to get a backplate are enough to just get an another board with i think
Why optiplex looks so clean and gaming
Just center tap the acew holes through the motherboard and use a 6/32 bit to tap new holes for standoffs

New fesr unlocked while building pc
i have that same ssd. please for your sake GET ONE WITH MORE STORAGE!!
You could have at least brought a single fan Nvidia GTX GPU rather than two. The 1650 super is a single fan, and it would fit into the slot.

Hi! I was just doing this on my own too but the cpu fan needs a bracket can u put a link to where I can find one?
I just ordered the cheapest LGA 1151 CPU cooler i could find, since those always come with brackets, and it was only 5€ :D
You can put room aircond on that motherfader bro..

Doesnt that PSU look like the LTT All-Aliexpress one? It failed alot in his video.
