    Honestly, it actually has quite a nice 'clean and minimal' look to it on the outside. Looks similar to my first PC back in 2002. The 'upgrade' looks amazing on the inside.

    Very nice job, congratulations 👍 By the way, you can still connect old floppy disk drives to a modern board. I have an internal USB adapter for something like this. Is plugged onto the back of the floppy and then connected to the header. And yes, that even works 😁

  • @zeroturn7091
    @zeroturn7091 Рік тому +4

    Since it’s an i3 you could’ve went 92 or 120mm air. Going by the comments you were probably better off going with a 120 AIO radiator on the rear then installing a lower intake fan (speaker delete).
    Your presentation is spot on. In order to get my PATA ODDs to work I used a PCIe to PATA expansion card, and it looks a mess with PATA cables stretched across the motherboard.

  • @gdjaybee742
    @gdjaybee742 7 місяців тому +1

    Looks great man. I was surprised you didn't drill holes in the front for intake fan, and cut out the bottom of the front case grill. You could use some high static pressure fan and dust filter there to push cool air in.

    I think you did a great job with that sleeper. Those ' are awesome and I would like to know where I can get some. The fact that you put in the old school drives and stuff was something really original that I haven't seen very many builders do. I got to say this might be the best sleepover I've seen That isn't on $1,000,000 UA-cam channel LOL. Good job

    The other day, I found two AOpen cases very similar to what you have shown....Although, the back has two 60mm exhaust fans like the one at 3:28
    Think I'll wait until AM5 platform becomes cheaper (and AMD releases Zen 4 based APUs) to turn them into Sleeper PCs.

    What if sometimes in the future you befriend a CNC machinist and ask if they can help you cut out metal that can hold a radiator towards the side panel instead of using the side panel as a mount for it. Just cut some holes in the side panel in an appropriate period correct style have a rich uncle to help fund you a custom waterloop. Hell. If the CNC guy really felt like it I bet they could make a custom mount for the mother berboard and may be even shrouds and strip mounting points to really clean up the clutter of the cables, and if you have an even richer uncle, get custom cables to booth. Yes... This is pretty much exactly how I'd like to do my own sleeper build but saving up for all this stuff takes for ever and I have tried several times only to have to use money for more urgent things. XD This is what happens when you dream too big and overthink things I guess but damn, if it wasn't a pretty sweet dream.
