Appreciate the feedback on this video! Since we didn't have a 6-8pin adapter in house at the time of filming, we went with what we had which isn't recommended. Definitely repeat this with a 6-8 pin for best results! Will work on improving this in the future :)

You should have shown the performance of the original parts and not swap them out like the hhd and gpu. So that we can truly gauge the real perf of this ultra budget pc.

@MickeyMishra 4 месяца назад

Dudes? Don't worry about it! 😊 What you did was exactly what anyone else would have done in a BUDGET situation, and you did that perfectly. It's spot on to what anyone else would do in if they only has a few quid to spend on a PC as not everyone is made of money, or even has a way to get good PC parts outside of a garage sale or recycling center or Goodwill / Thrift store. Nothing is going to Burn down as so many have put it here. Most are simply just following the Lulz crowd. If I may, your next budget build series should be how to use those 16GB intel Optane drives to boost the performance of the cheap SSD's from TEMU or aliexpress that come in at 1TB and see if you can overclock the CPU's in some of these Old XEON systems. We in the car community have to sometimes stick with what we got on hand. See if you can focus on that and you would have a really gem of a video on your hands.

@brandontrost8888 9 месяцев назад

You should have used a 6 pin to 8 pin adapter. The 1660 only uses around 120-130w, the 6 pin is rated for 150w so unlike your sata solution it would actually be decently safe. Keep a few 6 pin to 8 pin adapters laying around, they are great for those workstation pcs.

@eliasneris2612 9 месяцев назад

agreed, came here to say the same thing.

@b0ne91 9 месяцев назад

6 pin is 75W and 8 pin 150W. But the extra 2 pins are actually just ground, so if the cable is thick, pretty much every old 6 pin is already easily gonna handle 150W.

6 Pin to 8 Pin PCIe adapters are perfectly safe. The extra 2 pins are just ground - meaning most PCIe cables can already handle the 150W that the 8 pins are specced for.

@edan7813 9 месяцев назад

If you are going to use this I recommend getting a 6 pin to 8 pin pcie since pcie is made to handle gpus and the 1660 only draws 130w

@Mini-z1994 9 месяцев назад

Not sure why you went with the sata too pci-e 6+2 pin there. The 2 extra pins are ground pins, but if you want too be sure the 8 pin has proper power. By combining the two 6 pins the powersupply 6 pin & the sata to 6 pin adapter into an 8 pin, that's probably the best option for ensuring full power.

@311afox 8 месяцев назад

I've had a 3060Ti (200W TDP) installed in a 3620 with the 365W PS and 6-8 adapter no problem. 150W through the six pin and 50w through the PCIe slot. also ran prime95 with the i7-7700 for 2 hours straight with no issues.

In my HP Z240 (which has a 400W 80+ Platinum PSU) I just used a 6-Pin to 8-Pin adapter to get my GTX 1070 running. And my CPU is the same Xeon E3-1270 V5. This CPU is equvalent to the i7-6700 non-k but with a slightly higher clock. I mean: The 8-Pin is not much more and mainly just has an additional ground pin. But the cables themselves can handle the theoretical additional power, which the GPUs themselves oftentimes don't actually need. Most GPUs that could easily live with a 6-Pin just come with an 8-Pin connector these days. Like the 6-Pin seems to be fading out apart from those prebuilt systems. And I'd feel much safer with a 6-Pin to 8-Pin adapter than with some SATA power adapters.

@realwelder3529 5 месяцев назад

I did one of these with a 3050. Performs pretty well. Mine came with a 6700k and I made use of the open m.2 slot next to the font-panel header as the boot drive. I replaced the PSU and used a 24-6 pin adapter. The original PSU didn't have the 6 pin for the gpu.

Sata to 8 pin adapters normally can handle around 55w. They are not dangerous if you buy a quality one and used within spec.

@10WA 8 месяцев назад

I'd recommend old HP Z440. Usually came with a decent 4 or 6 core xeon and 16 or 32gb ram. The main benefit is most of them had a 600w psu with a 6pin pcie that can easily be adapted to and 8 pin opening the door for more gpu options.

The HP Z series workstations are still powerful enough and underrated and they offer dual CPU slots that can take hex Xeons which doubles the RAM you can use. I use an older Z600 for music and its maxed out with 128Gb Ram for Kontakt and its an absolute beast. I installed a LSI SATA3/SAS card with 4 internal ports and external SAS socket I have connect a raid array and upgraded to the 1060 6Gb card for dual 4k displays. It happily runs windows 11 without any driver issues albeit without the added security which I just do not need as its a standalone system. It happily runs 4k video with Dolby Atmos and Vision.

I scored a Dell Precision 3620 workstation last year for $120 shipped. It has the I5 6500 and slot for an M.2 NVME so I installed one and also 32GB of 2133 DDR4 Ram. It's a nice machine but I'm using a slightly older DDR3 ram HPZ 620 Xeon 6 core 12 thread1650v2 (3.50-3.90 Ghz) with a GTX 1060 to get my feet wet to gaming. The proprietary PSU's are the only drawback so far because they need a 6 to 8 pin adapter but the HPZ 620 has an 800W PSU.
