Take a pliers and bend on the stand offs in the original case. They'll break out of the metal fairly easily and cleanly. Re-use them as nuts in your new case. Or if you have fine thread motherboard stand offs laying around.
The motherboards I use are optiplex 3020 sff also known as dell dih81r/tigris its lga1150 and I believe it supports standard coolers (EDIT: I can confirm they support standard coolers, I put an Intel stock one and a screw on cooler.) you should take a look at them. I'm sure you've already had experience with it, but thought I'd share in case you haven't
@@DLMtechgarage im so confused man, do I need to leave the hideous blowdryer on it that you are showing in the video or can I add a different better looking cooler?
You can use an Intel stock cooler with these boards without an adapter. Cut the wires and plug from the old cooler and put them in these corresponding holes on the stock cooler. Black to Black, Red to Yellow. Yellow to Green and blue to blue, the 1st colour is the proprietary connector wires and 2nd stock cooler, this can be transferred to all coolers if you can integrate it. For the "hdd fan", you can cut the wires and put them in the same holes as the cpu if you can't use the fan itself.
Need to check the mobo I used as it is practically the same and I had no problem getting a stock cooler to clip in. UPDATE: It was a dell optiplex 790 sff. Not sure the exact mobo but I've found most fit a stock cooler, and if it's just off try an lga 775 cooler if you have one, you never know
I modified stok HSF with 4 pin intel to 5 pin dell by using male to female 2.54 pin header cables (arduino cable)... Just change the blue cable position. But i still wonder is it ok to leave the chipset without heatsink like that... You can see around of it to be browny because of heat... I wanna add a chipset heatsink, but there isn't holes around the chipset... The original hsf looks like covering the chipset that can suck the heat.

@@DLMtechgarage could you please make a video about that? Cpu fan compatibilities in optiplex's? Also, i emailed you regarding this query. Hope you find time to reply!
10:40 just a little tip, the pins them self are actually standard spacing, it's just the plastic shell which hinders you from putting in standard connector. Most of them are quite easy to remove and you can fit a normal 3/4pin in there, assuming there is no capacitor blocking. It's usually 100% reversible, as the plastic shell is usually just pushed down over the pins and not fastened with anything else. Nice breakdown for any new DIY guys out there. Edit: only works with 3pin( or 4pin if you leave one out of the side) and it will go full throttle. However a good fan at full throttle or with in build resister is still usually much quieter, and would result in same scenario as running from molex/sata but you will not get CPU fan failure. You can flip it around, running at much lower speed, but will give out CPU fan error. I mention this, because not all countries have these adapter readily available. So it might make for a fair upgrade in fan. Alternatively, use case fan on the CPU pins and CPU fans on case pins.

Trying to upgrade the CPU but the 4 screwes holding down the heat sink are coming out. They just spin inside. Do you have the issues with the 7010 sff?
wow, that seems like trouble, because if I remember correctly in this model isn't the mount part of the case?? if not then i'm not sure of a safe way to remove it without seeing it. Never had that issue before.
I have the same motherboard but what other CPU cooler can I use on this motherboard . Because its makes a lot of noise and stock intel cpu cooler does not fit to motherboard.
with this board you cant change the cooler due to the different unique mounting holes. You can change the fan to a noctua of that size and thats about it. thanks for watching and subscribe for more!
with this motherboard you can't change it. What I recommend is is the wire tie trick for the heatsink along with upgrading to a noctua fan for quieter and better air flow.

never a bother always glad to help! yes and no. bios update has allowed for upgrades of cpu, example being this dell model with the bios update you can put an i7 cpu in it for that generation.

Hey! i have a question, do you know if i can swap the case of the Dell optiplex 3050 sff, i ask this because the motherboard isn't rectangular (it has like a leap, 8NPPY is the mobo) so i want to hear your opinion since you work with this kind of computers, also, i have two stick of rams, but they're of different brands, do you think they don't work in dual channels just because of the brand or because any other factor, Both are 8GB DRR4 ram, (one's Samsung and the other one is Crucial) and the last part, if they aren't compatible for dual channel, should i buy a 16GB crucial ram, so i have dual channel and 24GB of ram? My sistem is an i5-7500 16GB RAM 1TB HDD, no gpu. Edit: Forgot to mention that the crucial ram is 2666MHZ while the Samsung one 2400, it's limited by the bios and obviously by the lower mhz one.
It has not been done and I am not sure on the specifisc but I am def looking to get one in the future and see if it's possible so stay tuned!! as far as the memory, yes they will work in dual channel it would just default to the slower speed ram. now some memory don'nt play nice with each other but those are both good ram and should work. I would try it and run it as is for now and if you brave poss the ram speed a little bit.

Hey sounds like the issue is probably with the power connector. try disconnecting the original power button on the optiplex and plugging it in just to test everything works. if it works then its just an issue of figuring out the pin out. would love to video chat with you but my schedule has been hectic. Keep me posted on how its goin!
Hi man I have a question I am going to be doing the same exact thingBut I have a little bit of concern about the 24 pin power connector I have a GTX 1070 but I feel like the heat sink well cover that up causing me not to be able to plug in a power supply are there any jeep use that you know that will fit
yea it does become something to think about when it comes to this particular board from dell. The MTX and traditiona; sff ones don't have this issue and this board limits the variety of cards you can use because of the power connector location but you do have a few options. first being looking up the dimension of the card to see how long and wide it is, smaller 1070 variants clear it as the more beefed up version create an issue. another thing to consider is using a 24 pin L adaptor as it will move the wires away and give you more room so your not butting up again the end of the card. I will put a link below and have known people to go this route and I have heard it works well. the third option is depending on the case your going with you can use a riser extension cable and vertically mount your gpu. Its the easiest way to do it and is a nice look but costs a little more due to the riser card and buying the mount, or for the mount you can fabricate something yourself. Hope this info help, thanks for watching and def let me know what route you choose and how it goes.
@@DLMtechgarage I just put a little bit more research into that the 24 pin power connector is upside down🤦♂️ which will stop me from using that part but if you know they do make mini ITX versions of regular graphics card the most powerful one is the 2070 TI it’s the same length as a low profile graphics card but it is taller than a low profile graphics card so yeah if you can find a mini ITX version like this www.ebay.com/itm/124409942414 Any of these types of short versions will work definitely if the low-profile ones can fit in the motherboard these can fit the motherboard

You have a few ways to try and solve this. You can upgrade the cooler but you are gonna need to find a cooler that is not too tall and will clear the surrounding components. The company Noctua makes some that I believe work but they are expensive and you will also need a adaptor to plug it into the mother board. The next option I would consider would be checking the thermal paste. If you have never changed it then that is def your issue. Fresh thermal paste along with dusting out the computer and cleaning out the fans and heatsink will help alot. Use quality thermal paste like artic mx4, or thermal grizzly. Another thing you can do is upgrade just the fan and reuse the heatsink. You can get a 80mm fan from Noctua and adapt it to the heatsink. Their fans have alot more air flow and work great. It does seem that I think the issue is thermal paste. I have used these computer with that set up and never had temp issues but I had to change the thermal paste and clean out the dust on the blower and heatsink. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions and def check out my other video on dusting and cleaning a computer. Thanks for watching!

@@allen4981 replied
10:40 just a little tip, the pins them self are actually standard spacing, it's just the plastic shell which hinders you from putting in standard connector.
Most of them are quite easy to remove and you can fit a normal 3/4pin in there, assuming there is no capacitor blocking.
It's usually 100% reversible, as the plastic shell is usually just pushed down over the pins and not fastened with anything else.
Nice breakdown for any new DIY guys out there.
Edit: only works with 3pin( or 4pin if you leave one out of the side) and it will go full throttle. However a good fan at full throttle or with in build resister is still usually much quieter, and would result in same scenario as running from molex/sata but you will not get CPU fan failure. You can flip it around, running at much lower speed, but will give out CPU fan error.
I mention this, because not all countries have these adapter readily available. So it might make for a fair upgrade in fan. Alternatively, use case fan on the CPU pins and CPU fans on case pins.
good info, appreciate it!!

Hey! i have a question, do you know if i can swap the case of the Dell optiplex 3050 sff, i ask this because the motherboard isn't rectangular (it has like a leap, 8NPPY is the mobo) so i want to hear your opinion since you work with this kind of computers, also, i have two stick of rams, but they're of different brands, do you think they don't work in dual channels just because of the brand or because any other factor, Both are 8GB DRR4 ram, (one's Samsung and the other one is Crucial) and the last part, if they aren't compatible for dual channel, should i buy a 16GB crucial ram, so i have dual channel and 24GB of ram? My sistem is an i5-7500 16GB RAM 1TB HDD, no gpu.
Edit: Forgot to mention that the crucial ram is 2666MHZ while the Samsung one 2400, it's limited by the bios and obviously by the lower mhz one.
It has not been done and I am not sure on the specifisc but I am def looking to get one in the future and see if it's possible so stay tuned!! as far as the memory, yes they will work in dual channel it would just default to the slower speed ram. now some memory don'nt play nice with each other but those are both good ram and should work. I would try it and run it as is for now and if you brave poss the ram speed a little bit.
why wont the default cpu coolers fit? exactly is it the holes? or something else?
they will fit on the SFF but the USFF has different sized mounting holes which dont line up with tradition coolers.

Hey sounds like the issue is probably with the power connector. try disconnecting the original power button on the optiplex and plugging it in just to test everything works. if it works then its just an issue of figuring out the pin out. would love to video chat with you but my schedule has been hectic. Keep me posted on how its goin!
Hi man I have a question I am going to be doing the same exact thingBut I have a little bit of concern about the 24 pin power connector I have a GTX 1070 but I feel like the heat sink well cover that up causing me not to be able to plug in a power supply are there any jeep use that you know that will fit
yea it does become something to think about when it comes to this particular board from dell. The MTX and traditiona; sff ones don't have this issue and this board limits the variety of cards you can use because of the power connector location but you do have a few options. first being looking up the dimension of the card to see how long and wide it is, smaller 1070 variants clear it as the more beefed up version create an issue. another thing to consider is using a 24 pin L adaptor as it will move the wires away and give you more room so your not butting up again the end of the card. I will put a link below and have known people to go this route and I have heard it works well. the third option is depending on the case your going with you can use a riser extension cable and vertically mount your gpu. Its the easiest way to do it and is a nice look but costs a little more due to the riser card and buying the mount, or for the mount you can fabricate something yourself. Hope this info help, thanks for watching and def let me know what route you choose and how it goes.

You have a few ways to try and solve this. You can upgrade the cooler but you are gonna need to find a cooler that is not too tall and will clear the surrounding components. The company Noctua makes some that I believe work but they are expensive and you will also need a adaptor to plug it into the mother board. The next option I would consider would be checking the thermal paste. If you have never changed it then that is def your issue. Fresh thermal paste along with dusting out the computer and cleaning out the fans and heatsink will help alot. Use quality thermal paste like artic mx4, or thermal grizzly. Another thing you can do is upgrade just the fan and reuse the heatsink. You can get a 80mm fan from Noctua and adapt it to the heatsink. Their fans have alot more air flow and work great. It does seem that I think the issue is thermal paste. I have used these computer with that set up and never had temp issues but I had to change the thermal paste and clean out the dust on the blower and heatsink. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions and def check out my other video on dusting and cleaning a computer. Thanks for watching!

@@abdulrahmanzidan9253 I have a video or two on the channel on how to handle the power button so check out the channel for those videos.
Can I use the cryorig c7 cooler on this motherboard
not sure
couple of questions
will this work in a atx case or what case will it fit?
can you put a normal intel cpu cooler on it?
it will work in any case and you can put any cpu cooler you want on it, just make sure you have the fan adaptor if its the 5 pin dell version.
@@DLMtechgarage omg thank you so much your the only help full person on the internet I swear
@@awu4d thanks glad I can help , let me know if you need any more help. Thanks for watching!!
@@DLMtechgarage actually another question sorry bout this but do the small form factor dell optiplex also fit or what size are they? thank you
@@DLMtechgarage soz bout that question just realised the video is about a small form factor pc so yeah should I read the title better my b
Is that the same thing dor a optiplex 790 sff? Or is the motherboard different?
its different. its the usff board. sff you dont have to do this mod. Hope this helps and hope you can subscribe to help the channel grow.
Can I ask? Is The motherboard is mini-itx?
its dell's usff which in term means ultra small form factor. Its like a mini -itx but not that same standard, just their proprietary build of the build. Thanks for watching and hope you can subscribe for more!
@@DLMtechgarage couple of questions
will this work in a atx case or what case will it fit?
can you put a normal intel cpu cooler on it?
Can these motherboards fit in matx cases?
Yes they can. I put this one in an matx with no issue and it sold and works great till this day. Thanks for watching and hope you can susbscribe!
@@DLMtechgarage Thank you for replying!! Can you recommend some cases?
@@kennethianpanganiban5082 check out the dark flash dlm22 case. I have used that one before for this board and since the rear fan opening is close to the board it works for the exhaust for the factory cooler. I have a video on the channel of a review of this case, its not using this board but def shows the case.
@@DLMtechgarage Thank you so much
@@kennethianpanganiban5082 Anytime. Def keep us posted on your build!
Is this a 1150?
No its socket 1155, sorry for the late response, the comment got lost in my messages.
So only using this adapter I can put a standard cooler? www.amazon.it/dp/B08GFCPNR9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_ezG8FbJDMZMWD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 (sff version)
yea pretty much. Then you will be fine. Everything else is the same. Also works for replacing the other fans too. Thanks for watching!
Hello, thanks for the video, really interesting.
A quick question: I have a Dell USFF (vjauj58549.i.lithium.com/community/image/serverpage/image-id/22945iBEAAEBB8804E7FA9/image-size/large?v=1.0&px=999) I need a bigger tower. Swapping to a generic seems to be complicated with the pin compatibility. Then I am checking which Dell Tower is compatible. Any idea please?
swapping to a generic case is actually not that hard as it seems. Their are great guides and info that help. The pin issue has actually been simplified by this guy who sell adaptors he makes on eBay.
www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Optiplex-390-3010-3020-Front-Panel-Header-Adapter-Kit-3pc/264638815586?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
Def check it out and it might be something to consider.
I have never swapped them to another bigger dell case but I would recommend to just make sure the motherboard measurements fit as the usff board appears to be a little bit longer. You may run into the cpu cooling fan issue due to the bigger cases using typical mounting standards for cpu coolers.
@@DLMtechgarage Thanks a lot
@@DLMtechgarage What about the i/o on the sff can you explain how to get the power switch to work in a atx case
@@Allious131 check out this guys video, he sells and easy piece to do it plus give the open source diagram so you can make the pin outs for it. I have another video on my channel of how i did it but this guy sell this piece which is the best way to do it. check it out and see if it helps.

Thanks for watching!
@@DLMtechgarage oh. I say that you record 14 min video about using ziptie. Its amazing. 14 min.
@@hemn6vyr yea I had it translated lol... I appreciate it!
Do you know any cases for this?
I have fit them in regular case with no issues.
Hi I have a question I just swapped mine into a bigger case will The 24 pin power connector on the motherboard stop a gpu from going in
I would say yes and no. Using the top slot you should be fine. Now depending on the size of the graphics card like a 2.5-3 slot graphics card you then would run into an issue but most standards cards fit with no issue. I ran an rx570 from power color with no issue. I would not put like a 2080 strix or anything huge like that. Thanks for watching hope this help and hope you can subscribe to help the channel!
@@DLMtechgarage OK I’ll subscribe
I’m not sure if this is too much to ask but can you do a video of you putting it into a case
@@jaimenbrunson1652 thanks!
@@jaimenbrunson1652 wish i could but I don't have that board in the garage.
Is that the same thing dor a optiplex 790 sff? Or is the motherboard different?
pretty much the same just.
Two more questions do i need to readd thermal paste and can i just switch the case without taking out that cooler?
@@itzd4v16 Its always good to use best thermal paste. For this particular board meaning the SFF you have to use the cooler. Then non SFF you can use any cooler you want
DLM tech garage ok thx, is the power button not working on a new case a problem that will happen for sure or is it rare, and if it happens can you make a video on it please?
