I love builds like these. It's cool because you never expect an HP SFF office PC to play Cyberpunk at over 60 FPS. Something I've always wanted to do is make a build like this, but put a custom loop in it.

@dylanherron3963 Год назад

Snoozy little sleeper, sleepers are the best

@guily6669 Год назад

custom loop? That would be pricier than the whole build and totally pointless cause the 7700 sadly has the multiplier locked, if it was the 7700K, then delidding and going extreme cooling for max OC it would still be a fine PC though it's still very far from catching a much weaker 13th gen Intel I3 which is just massively better and with much less wattage than a full OC 7700K😕

@dylanherron3963 Год назад

@@guily6669 Dude, if you look at this build and think "it would only be worth it if the 7700 was unlocked and de-lidded with liquid metal" than man, this might not be the form factor for you. (or the source PC for you... it's a used factory OEM office PC) A sleeper is entirely for aesthetic, spending money on unexpected internals is literally the entire point.

@guily6669 Год назад

@@dylanherron3963 but still what's the point of a custom Waterloop on something that will never need it and won't make a difference... I thought a sleeper is supposed to be "something" that is crazy high performance hidden\disguised as something looking so much worse. Also even if this PC had a 7700K would still be a pretty normal thing cause there have always been both I5\I7 K on a bit more expensive office PCs and it's not like even a fully OC one will be much of a "sleeper" PC cause it can't even get close to some of the worse current intel 13th gen I3 on a even uglier office PC case LOL... In fact this won't even get close to the current latest APU's like AMD Ryzen 6800U that go in handheld form factor at least in CPU performance... Ps: what I mean is the custom water cooler should be used on really hot, high wattage chips or for going maximum OC which is exactly the point of a unlocked CPU.

Great video! I love it when people bring new life to old hardware. The FPS numbers are actually impressive.

@guily6669 Год назад

It's totally normal cause it's mostly GPU power in there... at least for 1080P a lot of games can't even push that GPU to the max, like having 60% use only on some games because of lack of CPU+ram combo 😕 The problem of such builds are always the 1% lows and micro stuttering which might get annoying, the avg FPS should always be fine cause most games don't really push physics to the next level for almost a decade sadly...

@RejectedGalaxy Год назад

My PC i've been using for around 6 years now is kinda similar to this one actually. I have the exact same CPU, my GTX 1070 was only slightly better than this one (I have a 2060S now), I didn't even put my emulators on my m.2 I put them on my hard drive, the only upgrade I can see here is that I have 16GB of DDR4 instead of 8. Every emulator runs perfect including RPCS3, Xenia, and Yuzu. So if the PC runs like mine does I can see it handling emulation no problem.

If you want a PC like this but want to be able to put a bigger graphics card into it for more performance or to save costs, I'd recommend going for the mini tower version, it is bigger but it's about the same price as the SFF version but it's still very sleek at least to me

Its nice to see a GPU like the RTX A2000 be available for so cheap. Because this is an entry level workstation card (like the Quadro cards). It is a little slow, but it's so inexpensive, I would rather have this than RTX 3060 in my Video editing rig, Since it is much more optimised for that work. Honestly, with this card, you can make a rather pocket friendly and super reliable workstation for video editing and VFX. It won't be fast, but it would be more stable and VFX/ editing softwares would be more stable

@doobiescoo 9 месяцев назад

I have made a hard turn in my gaming preferences recently. Instead of going for the best of the best all of the time, I have favored performance/watt. My main rig is a 13700k, 64GB RAM, and a 4080. My watt meter says my system takes 710 watts at the max, I can only assume that is a chunk of my electric bill. When you said this system takes 180 watts, that was an uppercut because my average load while in game on my 4080 alone is in the 250-ish watt range with a peak max that I have seen of 300. I am ready to take a slight downgrade in performance for massive power savings.

@TheGameBench Год назад

I don't suggest the Dell SFF systems past the xx10 series since they put the x16 slot right next to the PSU, so the A2000 wouldn't fit. HP has some of the best SFF systems and the Z240 is a little better option than this 800 G3 if you can find it about the same price since it has a better PSU, and I think they look a bot better too. And from the looks of it, that 7700 needs a delid.

@boxfan6656 Год назад

I ran into this problem with the Optiplex 7060 and 5060 and also the HP Prodesk 600 G4. There's only a single full sized x16 slot and it can only fit a single width card due to the position of the PS. They started to do this with the 8th gen Intel SFF cases - which is one gen later than the PC in the video. It does work if the PS is taken out of the case, with a little bending of the metal and using no bracket whatsover.

My first attempt had wet dirt in it, so they tried washing it out and didn't even remove the dirt so I could identify before it shorted. Second one ripped out the wifi chip and cabling.... Along with switching a good ssd for a cheapo. Also many of the advertised 2400ge chips are swapped for a 2400g which is a mixed bag of more performance for more heat. Lastly, I saw some videos where your performance was only around 7000 night raid, but on the same pc you would get nearly 13000 just by switching to dual channel memory which is cheap.

Time passes faster playing Super Mario World.) . It's all I need and does everything... Watching your videos has me on the verge of buying a mini pc and a 24" monitor, and using my Monster S300 for sound... I don't NEED it, but it just seems so damn cool. Will I ever play AAA games? Probably not. Almost guaranteed not. PS2 is about the height of my gaming aspirations, so I can relive the thrill of playing Shadows of the Colossus, or try Hollow Knight to get my Metroidvania fix. But thanks to these videos, all I can think about is how much better doing that would be on a Minisforum or Beelink mini computer sitting discreetly beside a crisp monitor. So thanks for that... a new fixation has entered the building.

my a2000 actually came with the low profile bracket so that's lucky

Don't use vacuums. Compressor at low pressure or blower generate less static.

In my country 6th gen to 9th gen used CPU are still pretty pricey right now. But Haswell ones are pretty cheap, buy the empty (only mobo + PSU + CPU cooler + case) for 30$ then add 40$ for an i7 4770, 25$ for 16GB RAM, and 80$ for a low profile RX 550 4GB. BOOM, sub 200$ PC that can handle newer games (not RTX A2000 though, that's still around 380$ here lol) Wish we could get parts cheaper than the US as our buying power are pretty crap as minimum wage on big cities are just below 350$ lmao

I’d be cautious running these power supplies at more than 145 W for extended periods of time. These machines were not designed to run that high, and 145 W is 80% of the rating of the PSU. I don’t have a lot of experience with these SFF Office gaming builds, but use caution.

@eddiew.4650 Год назад

To be fair he's been doing these SFF builds for several years now. If there was ever an issue, then he would've brought it up by now. Especially when he's the one with more experience with them.

@kirle5455 Год назад

a lot of times those SFF PCs have gold or even platinum rating power supplies, and they perform really well within whole power range

@theinktician Год назад

I just want to add - the 800 G4 (the next version of this) has a platinum rated 250w PSU. So you shouldn't reach that 80% threshold under pretty much any circumstance

@riseabove3082 Год назад

I'll never forget the old Pentium 4 Dell Optiplex. Those things ran so hot it was like a hot hair dryer blowing and sounded like it too. We had so many of those just start blowing hot smoke because the insides were literally frying. Once you opened them up you could see melted caps on the motherboard and inside the psu. Hated those P4 Optiplexes.

@marcello4258 Год назад

Attention: 180watt is what it can pull maximal not what it can provide to the system .. usually you Wang to have your PSU significant bigger because the best yield is usually at 50% capacity.. Moreover, other parts like voltage regulators ram and chipset drives etc po (it adds up) also consuming power

@woldemunster9244 Год назад

Yes. There is a "efficiency sweet spot". Why would this component power draw be a new thing when LPDDR and laptop components exist?

@ClosestNearUtopia Год назад

They are called losses.. id say at max it can deliver a somewhat pure voltage to about 153watt assuming its efficiency is 85%.

@FaridRudiansyah Год назад

Agreed, watt pulled from PSU is not same as Watt provided to the system. But it can be use roughly. Probably the system only use 130-150w.

How much 1080 P emulation could this handle, and could you show some emulation on a standard 50+ inch TV? If I'm not alone, I'm looking for something that would allow my kids to play all the retro and most of the newer console games on their TV. Seeing what 1 of your emulation station builds would look on a regular 1080p big screen TV would really help to show what these are capable of in the real world. Thanks again for all the great videos I've learned a lot !

The a2000 is such a nice LP card. Makes me hope we get another LP low power usage card this gen. Maybe a 4050 or RTX 2000 ada.

@greatwavefan397 Год назад

There's the RTX 4000, which is the RTX A2000 with the new Ada Lovelace architecture.

@jonathanellis6097 Год назад

We really do get shafted here in the UK. The A2000 is way, way more expensive here. Even the old office PC's the sellers here want too much money for them most of the time. 😕

Same, it's between 650-900 dollars here in Australia.

i just got into this , the whole budeget gaming pc from office thing, and i gotta say sff rigs are a delicate balance to get anything, of note gpu wise, i didnt even know low profile gpus were a thing until i bought a 5040 optiplex sff and boy have I done alot of googling, i finally decided on a SWFT 105 Radeon rx 6400 yall think it will work?

@Shrapnel-dg3hd 8 месяцев назад

I have one with a i5-7700. Use it for Jellyfin. Works very well, so far (only had it a week now). I'm kinda hooked on these small systems. Supposedly there is a 400watt psu, from HP, that'll fit in this system. I can't find one though.

I'm thinking about trying out the lowpro WX4100. Seems like a bit better than 1050ti level of performance is doable after bios tweaking but it's a little known option. Its very low power draw is an appeal too. Seems like with a bit of hunting you can snatch one up for

@theinktician Год назад

@@ruffprophetproductions @Ruff Prophet Productions I think they might be considering the WX4100 because they're cheaper on ebay. They've become pretty available like the RTX A2000 lately, but for under $100. It's obviously not as good, but saving a good $30 for around the same performance (a the 6400) isn't so bad.

@@hotrot8123 Yeah depending on the game, it should run most VR apps with no isssue at respectable settings. Some games like Half Life Alyx should run maybe at low-med settings.
