Oh how the mighty have fallen... 

RIP EVGA and all the legendary SLI builds 😭

It kind of does a great job showing how these expensive systems can relatively quickly be outdated in a short time period.

It's been 6 years?! Where TF did time go?

I remember this build. You thought it was crazy using all those angle adapters going from the GPU to the CPU block, but it worked. If it's dumb, and it works, it's not dumb.

13:04 That’s Jay’s “I’ve been water cooling PCs before you were even born” face

Moral of the story, your cutting edge probably 5k USD+ build of today in 10 years will probably have the performance of a budget pc that costs 800 to 1000 usd.

Your iFixit Ad is the only one I enjoy watching and I don't jump through!

Im not sure if i'm the only one, but if you do revive this build I think you should do a modern version. rtx 3090s and 3090 ti's still support SLI and with the return of threadripper consumer chips you can still fit 8 sticks of ram in. It would be really impractical and Insanely expensive but it would still pay homage to the previous build while adapting it for more modern times

It might be old, but still looks amazing - Pascal has really held its own all these years, I retired my 1080Ti back in April after a solid 7yrs and hope the 4070Ti Super gets me another 7yrs.

"2080 6 years ago" I'm still rocking a 1070... Its that old now? 😅

Whatever fluid you used, did not seem to stain the glass at all either for just sitting for so long. That is impressive

I remember the "Terry Crews" build. That was a good video. Crews seems super likeable and really solidly into PC stuff. So I cannot believe I have been a Jay's 2 cents follower for like seven years. Wow.

I love this! I bought a D frame 2 off the back of this build. I bought a white one with blue accents. I still use it to this day and it's been through several iterations. Good to see the old girl is still alive!

im online too much.

6:00 I bet it's because it reminds you of popping the hood of a car :)

I used a Titan X for a couple of years, it was a very capable card. It got sold for an insane amount of money to a guy who was rendering animation. I got a secondhand water force 1080ti after, similar vram but significantly faster clock speed.

Me still rocking my EVGA Hydrocopper GTX 1080. 😎

So glad to see you feeling better and I can see your energy and enjoy your enthusiasm!

As someone who was on an old box for a decade (coming from the old i7-920) days this is fantastic! No one will understand how we feel, unless they themselves have walked the long mile in our shoes. bravo good sir!

Perfect illustration of there is no such thing as "future-proofing". Build the computer that you need today and next year, and replace it every four to five years.

WAKE UP NEW JAY VID JUST DROPPED

I'd kill for that green pc. My asus motherboard died 4 months ago and now I'm daily driving a 20 year old laptop. Life sucks.

Can't believe this is from 6 years ago! I remember thinking this build was one of the baddest PCs I'd ever seen. Time flies man.

I love these videos with older gaming PCs. It really hits my nostalgia because these were the systems I wanted before I could actually afford to build a system. I am thinking of building my 2015-2018 dream PC that I couldn't afford then! Keep showing some of these

Still love that case. It's timeless

Omg I remember the vid of you building this. Time flies.

Feels like its just a couple of years I watch this video. then realized when you check the video date. its the same time I build my first gaming pc and starting to watch your channel.

so good to see you having fun again Jay and not wore out im going thru the wore out phase myself but high depression 4 me

Jay. Maybe consider leaving that system together for a while for nostalgia reasons. Maybe use it again for testing again in the future. The best then vs the best now.

That is such a cool case and an awesome build! Flashback to the golden age of pc building with SLI and EVGA! lol

I remember the first SLI rig I had was 3DFX Voodoo 2 babe back in 1998! Back then SLI was Scan Line Interleave.

I’m still running x299 this made me feel like my computer is old. I mean it is but the realization of it hit hard.

We need more of these actually

Repeatedly tells us not to blow air direct through fans when cleaning and let them just spin as it can build up electricity. Proceeds to do exactly that

Man i remember the day this build was originally posted on the channel. Where has time gone, still a beast of a build in an awesome case

@JayzTwoCents I started watching your channel because of your IFix-it adds I still love them and you have more tech tips then LTT does now

Jay should honestly , each time he builds his yearly over the top personal pc, take a high quality photo and frame it and give it Employe of the year , then hang them on the wall like Ancestral paintings

Be well all

ooh man, what a sick throwback, for a while, this was one of my fav builds that you did.

I’ve been watching your videos for a very long time jay! Been a subscriber for very long I think atleast 9 years now. Thanks for this video loved it felt just like old times!! Keep up the great work!

Rebuild it and that chassis is cool for the age.

And here I'm still running an 8600k and a 1070ti from late 2017.

I remember watching those videos as soon as they dropped and yes it was exciting times, I had SLI and a triple monitor setup, but support dropped off for all of those great things and definately less exciting nowadays. Great memories. Can't believe I have been watching you for 7 years!

Hey Jayz, I just wanted to tell you that you're doing an AMAZING job! I've been with you since I was a kid and always admired your setups and knowledge of the PC Master race. It has been so inspiring and continues to be every time I watch your videos. Thank you for everything man.

The fact that that pc (minus the water cooling) is only worth a few hundred dollars today is insane. For context the titans are $140-150 usd today. An x299 board is $120. A 18 core i7 is $200 usd. Fuckin insane how high end hardware depletes in value

You kids, "look at the old titan build, lol". I still have my first PC build. 8088, with 16 color EGA monitor, built (assembled) in 1988.

I too remember this one. I was looking to build a system and was watching custom build videos and watched that one.

Bring it back! This build is so SICK!

Wait, did Jay spin the fans while cleaning with the dust machine at 3:00.... 😇😁🤣

i just started watching your channel when you built this bad boy, got me into water cooling officially back in the day

Ooh, I love these! I do this myself with older rigs too. Look at it later see how it is.

i love love love those 90s style infomercial for ifix it

Aaahhh days of SLi. I do miss all the extreme builds sli or tri sli. The can it run crysis stuff.

Awesome video !! Love this kind of content !!

That’s so good to see how old tech is performing nowadays. While the Titans are lagging behind, they retain some value. Thank you for sharing!!

Such a great build, thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I was just thinking about the InWin D-Frame like a week or so ago. And now we have Jay looking at an old D-Frame build.////

I miss these Builds! Start doing this builds again! I really enjoy your custom builds.

"Worked last time I used it" is also car speak for "ran when parked" lol

Jay, Im not even kidding, this is beautiful. It would outperform my current system I use for orchestral music writing, plus, is gorgeous. I used to feel like PCs were about form, stick it somewhere, use it, who cares what it looks like, but this system sings to me in the way it looks. Sure, the specs might be dated, but for my meager needs, outside of needing more memory (I need 64 gb minimum, pref 128), this would do everything I need and more, plus the dual SLI setup would make my preferred reverb engine, MIR 3D Pro, run like a dream

Jay, Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I remember watching you build this back in the loft studio. I recently recreated my first HEDT from 2013. Hit a rough patch back in 2016 (health issues) and lost most of my possessions. ASUS Z97-PRO MB, i7 4770K, 32GB 2866 RAM Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO double fans! EVGA 670 in SLI 850W PSU (New rig twin NVIDIA founders 1080 Ti). Windows 7 Pro Cooler Master HAF full tower with 360mm Fan on top. Plexi side panel and 2 count em, 2 DVD drives. Now Windows 11 Pro after installing TMP 2.1 to MOBO. Run older games made for SLI; FAR CRY 3, Dishonored, and yes it can run CRYSIS!. Hope you're feeling better, saw your hematological update VID. God bless you and your family.

I remember watching you build this years ago! That’s crazy

X299s are still my main build. Finally, a video relevant to me. Thanks Jay and team!!

I have the same case (but in gold) and I still love her like the first day ❤❤❤

Man this was a blast from the past. Right when I started watching you, because I was planning a pc build. I held out for a year and ended up going Ryzen 3000 series then and still rocking that computer. I keep thinking I’m going to do another but it’s still going strong after a gpu swap.

I love looking back at older builds and how they perform in today's workloads and games. Very fun!

OMG your moving ! I can so easily remember you moving in there not that long ago and shuffling desks around etc lol

Awesome to see, I still rock my In-Win Dframe exact same color. My PSU's capacitor's are busy trying to escape so would love to do a PSU rebuild to keep the housing true to the dframe.

Such an Awesome build still! I Love your excitement. I Love building PC's too but it's so expensive now I just can't afford it as a hobby now with my Son!

I would still like that gaming rig its way better than what i have currently

Single broke dad here. I am still gaming on my gtx 1080... I can't even upgrade to Windows 11. Even though my rig is old, I used good parts to build it, so it still gets me through! Your old pc is a dream upgrade for me! Lol!

love the look of that system

I'm impressed that your old setup was able to boot up and operate decently despite being idle for years. It's amazing how these old systems can still work somewhat efficiently, even though the components are obsolete.

Got my gaming mat/ Looks great. Thanks man.

I was wondering what happened to this build. I remember the 1st video you put out and seeing the finished PC thinking 'wow that's a cool case design and concept! Still looks good today.

Always nice to look back at SLI being popular to have in your set up compared to now.

The iFixIt Intro never gets old love it. DAYUM THAT BUILD

That still looks amazing! Your "old" computer is still years newer than mine. I'd kill to have something like that. Then again, I built mine with all used parts (except HD) and barely spent $250.

I remember watching you do the build video of this system.

@JayzTwoCents Jay, that glorious rig deserves some new hotness! Hit it up good sir!!

2014/2015 I dropped 10 grand on an 4790k based EVGA Classified Z97 (got 4900 and occasionally 5000 MHz), monster 1600 EVGA modular power and 4 Nvidia 780ti's in SLI, water-cooled. Converted to 2 1080ti's shortly after that. Still have that system and it still kicks butt. I fire it up ever now and again when the laptops are misbehaving and I need something done. And it takes me back to my benchmarking days and watching JayzTwoCents for all the cutting edge hardware content. Special days, special memories.

I just want to say, while i didn't see the original build, this is still a good looking PC. I for one love the look.

Uuuu, new studio. Cannot wait.

I LOVE that case. It speaks to me.

"yey it posted. Don't know why it wouldn't, worked fine last time I used it" that hits harder than it should lol

This video made me happy... then it made me sad.

I literally saw the vid from 6 years about this build YESTERDAY while using SLI and all dat good stuff. Seeing this video posted almost felt like JAY is reading my mind🤣🤣

Well it may not be that fast but boy is it beautiful.

I remember this build. I was just getting into building PCs and was consuming everything i could, even though this was well outside of my budget and skillset.

16:20 just a random npc teleporting out of nowhere to hitch a ride at 50mph.. lol cyberpunk glitches are awesome! Glad you got that on camera.

Man thats a beautiful case. I live that metal frame.

Dude one of your vids is why I put my rad on top of my build. It cools down so quick when fans ramp up. Just one super thin from premo cool on top of lian li case. It works really good.

it feels i literally just last year i built my rtx2080ti amd 2700x system, and then POW, its been 6 years

i remember the terry crews build! i think that was right around the time i first started watching your videos

Love that color coordination!

“Things worked. Brands were better.” Right In the feels

Love that case and the cooling. If day do something newer in it for sure.

I'm simple man. I see Jay's iFixit ad, I smile and hit like. Easily one of the best ads ever created

Pascal was the best era for GPU’s in my opinion, I loved these cards, had plenty of different models and I’m still running a 1080ti in another PC.

Ah... leave it as is Jay. It is a classic to you / everyone on your channel here. It obviously brings back good memories to you.
