I currently use an iPhone 14 Pro 64GB though now I wished I had gone with the Pro Max , also here in Austraila of the Three big Phone Companies Vodafone is third behind Telstra and Optus
You should take a look inside that power supply or use a psu tester before trying to use it on a pc. If it's new old stock it may be riddled with the capacitor plague era caps and it can pop easily if you try to power some hardware with it. I've seen other people unbox new old stock power supplies and they blew up in the first power on test
I still run unraid on an inwin q500. Another really old full tower case. I currently still have 2 of these case through away many old schhol cases just recently due to selling the house i grew up in where i had saved so much old pc tech. From motherboards psu cdroms hard drives and yes many old game cases or just plain cases like this one in your video. Just an fyi i followed your channel for long time. I too have really poor eyesight. Im legally blind since birth. Keep up the great work.
i got you beat bro, i have a 1.1 ghz G3 upgrade card in mine. Gigabit ethernet, Radeon 9200, Blu Ray Burner just for funzies, and the Sata Card with two ocz ssds in a raid 0
The best thing about you and your content is that the viewer can literally tell that you are having a blast and you cannot hide the excitement when you are tinkering with tech, especially older tech. The funniest thing about it is that you have been doing this for years and yet you haven’t lost this genuine interest apart maybe from your hiatus in the past. Keep up the good work!
That bundled psu i'm certain is a rebadged FSP. The "w/ noise killer" "w/ pfc" stickers is a dead giveaway. Those were basically the go-to 300w psu back in the day, everyone and their bull put their names on them
Awesome! excited to see the build. It's mad to think how much of this stuff must have been thrown away even in teh last few years. Used to go to the recycling place to get old hi-fi equipment years ago and they had a room stacked floor to ceiling with old PCs that would get removed every couple of weeks. Even my own collection was massive at one point until I gave it all away on Freecycle. If I'd kept it all I'd easily have had 10 grands worth at current eBay prices.
i built a hackintish years ago watching your vids at the time in a g5 case - it was mac pros at the time for the power, but minis and stuff perfectly powerful now so stuff moved on, but cant see me ever building anything now, but good to watch as ever mate
So nice to stumble upon your channel again after so long! I have notifications turned on but I rarely check them, to be honest. 😅 This reminded me of the time I deep cleaned my grandma’s old computer (which she is incredibly still using today! Albeit, without what we would call basic features nowadays). It’s so nice to see such an impeccable piece of technology. I’m excited to see the build later!
God. This reminds me of my first few cases I used and modded back in the early 2000s. Had to have those big LED fans and a window to show off my GeForce 4 and Athlon XP
Excited for this. That case reminds me of a lot of PCs I built back in the day. I've been building systems since like 1992ish and had a LOT of beige cases over the years. Some of them like the super towers I wish I still had.
Loved the video as always Tom! Makes me wonder what common things in todays PC world will become dated and collectible in the future. Maybe my collection of mid 2000s - early 2010s apple gear will become valuable. Who knows!
My desktop PC has an optical drive. It isn't old or anything. The CPU and that are from 2020. I just like having an optical drive. I think every PC should have one.
I knew it would be Evercase when I saw the thumbnail. I also knew it would be new old stock, as I bought cases from Evercase in 2016 that turned out to be made in 2003.
I stripped down an old PC that I built in 2007 a few weeks ago. Loved the sound deadening case by Antec at the time. Stipped down the innards of a few HP's in the past and tend to keep DVD drives, the odd floppy drive, hard drives, etc.. Disassembled an old Amstrad 512 laptop the other week that was shot, but kept a few buts as have 640 laptop that may well work again with the screen from the 512, and it's floppy drives. Far too much old stuff stored in boxes that the missus is constantly pressuring me to get rid of, but find it hard to part with old memories and kit that you just know still works.
Ahh Evercase - I bought their KM4021B to use as my case for my server. It looks like an early 2000s desktop but it’s rocking an engineering sample i9-11900H (iirc?) CPU, 64GB RAM, and 4x4TB storage drives in RAIDZ1. Gotta love mixing old with new! (I uhh…didn’t fancy trying the free power supply though lol)
@@ItsMyNaturalColour The board was silly cheap on AliExpress (It was under £150, the CPU is a mobile chip bolted on a custom board by Erying) and not many people can say they have a sleeper *server* so heck, why not? 😆
I like how the actual chassis part of their cases are more modern than the ones used in most Dell desktops, including the Alienware line lol. They've literally been using the same frame design for like 30 years.
Nice, brand new! Definitely not something you see these days. Lots of old systems were thrown out and now they are becoming cool again. I’ve got some old systems that I’m definitely going to keep even if they seem “obsolete”. Sounds like an awesome build, I’m sure it’ll be a great setup! I will keep that in mind next time time I move something on a desk. Great video!
Thank you!! I was really shocked to see that beige cases were now ‘cool’ again, I knew some of the really old stuff is but even the crusty Dells are expensive!
When the time comes that you need or want a real upgrade to your MacBook I think you'd love a 14" MacBook pro. They're still a little pricy but they're starting to come down. It's a great balance between the 13 and 15 inch screens. Be aware though that they're actually significantly thicker than the 2016s funnily enough. I think they're the first real "pro" laptops apple has made in nearly a decade!
11:14 I did that to my dads speakers as well XD. I still have those speakers, currently not using them but I had them on my setup for like 8 or 9 years up until recently : )
