BUILDING A $70 GAMING PC! Dell Optiplex SFF

[@AmericanBrody]

Did the same thing but swapped cases, coolers, added fans, and put in a 1650. Then I sold it for $350. $150 made

[@ZombieDontMiss]

did the exact same thing in my other 2 most recent videos. Fair deal for what it is, good profit without ripping them off

[@MizZzChAvVvOzZz]

Gotta make that meat.

[@Dexter_Playz18]

I should’ve done this Instead of spending £700 (550$) on 3060 pc that I don’t really need all the performance for

[@ZombieDontMiss]

True, I love 3060s though

[@Glitchmelon]

you mean £550 ($700)?

[@disownedrock]

You can probably play a lot more future games than just Minecraft and all that with a 3060

[@Human950ff]

sarcasm right

[@Dexter_Playz18]

@@Glitchmelonno I got the conversion wrong £700 so like $860

[@greg_grilton]

performance is pretty good for price and all white spraying the case looks super good. love it!

[@SciFiDude79]

Very nicely done. I've seen a number of Dell, HP and Lenovo office PC upgrades where people don't bother to paint the case, and I have to say that doing so makes it look a lot better. Yours looks so clean and, even though it's clearly still a Dell, it looks less like an office PC, thanks to a cheap can of spray paint.

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Exactly, the can was like $3! Lol. Thanks for watching, I appreciate you 🙏🏼

I can't buy one cuz im under 18 and its 10€ for me! ​@@ZombieDontMiss

Ty this inspired me and I made a £120 or $150 setup with a optiplex 7020

[@orange7649]

Just did this build heres some notes u need to have before buying 1. Most optiplexes dont come with a wifi/pcie card im rn using a asus wifi usb adapter 2. THE RADEON PRO WX2100 MAKES A DIFFERENCE WITHOUT IT I HAD 40 FPS ON VALORANT AND NOW I HAVE 230 3. The radeon wx 2100 has a display port not a hdmi so you need a adapter 4. I still havent but replace the thermal paste if you can

[@ZombieDontMiss]

This is all very true, I’m so glad you’re getting higher fps now. Also, I usually just use Ethernet, can never go wrong with that. Thanks for watching!

[@orange7649]

[@LootGad25]

i followed this build exactly but the pc is lagging badly and it’s getting around 20 fps on Fortnite any idea why?

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Yeah you’re gonna have to lower not only the graphics to performance settings but you’re gonna have to lower the resolution as well, and cap the fps as well

you get a splitter to power an extra hard drive... they are designed to have an optical or second device in them... 🇨🇦🤓✌️

You can swap the case for Dell Optiplexes into ATX and get more out of it, just need the adaptours and then it gives you error message on boot.

I got a pc (2nd hand) for $12.80 and it has 32gb of RAM, MSI motherboard and i5 CPU. Just need a graphics card for gaming

that’s a crazy steal

[@AAlgeria]

Depends on what i5 it has.

[@timerteam7076]

Where did you get it off from

[@ZombieDontMiss]

@timerteam7076 probably fb marketplace or a friend, maybe eBay

[@LootGad25]

Yooo, do I need a display port or a hdmi cable to connect the graphics card to the monitor. Sorry bout all the questions 😅I was tryna use a hdmi cable to connect to it but it didn’t fit.

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Ohhh…. Yeah this one only has display port and if your monitor doesn’t have a display port you can buy an adapter I usually just get them at Walmart for a few dollars but Amazon also has some they’re not hard to find

Hi,thank you for this amazing video. I was wondering it i can use a gt 740 4gb paired with an i7 7th gen?

[@1touchassisT]

Yea, I was wondering the same thing

[@Ekko-fn]

I was wondering too

[@ZombieDontMiss]

It will work. You would be able to play some games but that graphics card is very very low performance. An rx550 (the really small ones), or wx2100 is about 25-30 dollars and performs better

[@LootGad25]

Hello, I copied this build exactly but I’m new to pcs and I’m wondering how I’m supposed to connect this to the internet. Do I need a WiFi adapter and if so do u have any underpriced recommendations. Thanks!!

[@ZombieDontMiss]

Hey! I apologize for not covering this in more detail during the video. I should’ve been clearer. I assumed most people would use an Ethernet cable for the internet since a wired connection is the fastest. However, if you need a wireless connection, you can easily get a USB Wi-Fi adapter like you mentioned. Here’s a link to one I recommend: amzn.to/3Xgm2CD Anything would work but just make sure it supports 2.4 GHz or, ideally, 5 GHz. Thanks for your support!

[@helpiamsuffering603]

Why don’t u check FPS? How do you expect to benchmark the results

Checking FPS would just slow it down a little and I didn’t want to have it open. Plus, it’s a $70 PC-the point is that these games can run, and that’s all that matters.
