In this video I'll be taking an HP ProDesk 600 G2, and turn it into a full fledged GAMING PC!
Just like with the Dell Optiplex build, HP has implemented plenty of ways to try and stop you from upgrading or reusing parts, so you'd need to buy a completely new computer instead of upgrading your current one. BUT in this video I'll show you how to turn their limited little machine, and turn it into a BEAST (legally ;))
The parts I used in this video:
24-pin to 6-pin adapter:
amzn.to/3wPIiJd
Antec case:
amzn.to/3ULhliX
Chapters:
0:00 Introduction
1:27 What parts do you need?
2:37 Taking parts from the HP ProDesk
6:26 Adding parts to the motherboard
8:03 Placing parts into the case
11:49 Connecting cables through the PC
13:02 INSERTING the Graphics Card
14:15 Finishing up
15:21 Testing it out / Problems
17:16 STRESS TEST / WILL IT EXPLODE?
17:35 Watching its beauty
18:11 SIKRIT ;))

I got an optiplex 990 with a i5 2400 I had a spare i7 2700 and added 16 gigs of ram and its noe 20 gigs and a gtx 1650 I might get a new optiplex and buy a case and use the mobo Edit:you are so underrated but the best channel lmfao

The io shield issue can easily be dealt with in any welding shop. just lug the case there and tell the hombre to plasma torch that shield out

@IMCDundee 9 дней назад

you can get usb 3.0 header 90 degree angles online for a few bucks. bad planning but then they never expected that big a card.

@traffic2422 2 дня назад

just for future reference, for dual channel, you want to use slots 2 and 4. also you can buy 90 degree usb 3 adapters which i think will fix your gpu clearance issue. great build though

@sofiacastanolopez Месяц назад

for someone who does a lot of rendering and 3d modeling with my laptop, but I also take my laptop with me all the time, would you recommend the G14 over the G16 (2024) when it comes to performance/portability?

I bought the same HP Prodesk but i went with the 400 G3 which cost me 20$ USD it has an i3-6100 i slapped a 750ti into it which i already had in my previous system and 16 gb of ddr4 ram it works pretty nice and cost me barely anything and also it has closely to none proprietary connections so i slapped in a 600W PSU with absolutely no adapters i left it in the original case though since i dont have a better one at the moment, great video bro! i forgot to mention that you have some off ram placement you should always use slot 2,4 if only 2 sticks out of 4 present

@crimsontechyt Месяц назад

That's an amazing deal! :D With that PSU it has a bunch of upgradeability, so you're def set for a while. And thank you! :)

@KOXI_ Месяц назад

@@crimsontechyt thankfully on my model the IO shield is also not fused to the PC so i guess HP upped their game up with the G3

@crimsontechyt Месяц назад

It should be completely possible, but you might lose your front I/O functions, due to the connectors being proprietary. You could get an adapter for it though :)

@alinoumiere4731 Месяц назад

Nice video. One question is there any connector to my hp case it is g4 400 I need to upgrade my psu. It uses 4pin+4pin Any idea guys??

@crimsontechyt Месяц назад

I would just look up your model with "PSU adapter", and see if there are any 24-pin adapters for your model :)

@alinoumiere4731 Месяц назад

@crimsontechyt thank you so much, and nice video by the way. I have been looking for many months. I don't find any adapter. IT USES 4+4+6 PIN. I don't know if there is any solution to upgrade my PSU.

@alinoumiere4731 Месяц назад

@crimsontechyt it is g4 400 Mt business case Ram with high speed will not be supported 3200MHz, I guess?? Or i can be

@crimsontechyt Месяц назад

Thank you! :D The small form factor PCs are a bit harder to convert, since they have very proprietary screw positions, cables, and even power states. I couldnt find an adapter right away on google, but aliexpress might have them? That 6 pin is only used to power the DVD/SSD drives, so i wouldnt worry to much about that. One of the 4 pins powers the CPU, which is standard, and then you'll need to find a 24-pin to 4-pin adatper to power the motherboard.

@alinoumiere4731 Месяц назад

@crimsontechyt true 👍🏻 the only problem is the one 4 pin adapter The other one is for cpu fan And the 6 pin for the dvd. In aliexpress, all of them are 6 pin connector.

@crimsontechyt Месяц назад

Without changing anything about the rest of the system, you could get a GPU that doesn't need extra PCIe power. The most common GPU in this category would be a small GTX 1650, but i think there are stronger cards out there that dont need a 6+2 pin cable.

Both configurations have dual channel support, and lack XMP. The difference between the two hasn't been an issue (on 99% of boards) since like a decade ago
