[@s3rnielsen]

I got this same kind of pc as a hand me down and ive been wanting to upgrade it. This was a big help!

[@manojohn6584]

hey bro, I have this same motherboard. Can I put the i7 4790k with water cooler and 4 sticks of RAM with 8GB at 1600 frequency, totaling 32GB? Or could I have a problem or incompatibility?

[@istvanszabo767]

I did almost the same. M93p sff too, I left the i5 in (only 4570), I put 4×4 GB DDR3 1600 ram and an MSI 1050ti LP. I installed Win 10, the rig is good enough for casual gaming.

[@mxkdt]

Hi.

[@UmbraChad]

​@@mxkdthey man, I was wondering if I can install a 2.5" SSD on one of these without a caddy? I know enough not to use the stock HDD caddy, but where I am from I can't really find any 2.5" caddy for a desktop Thanks!

[@goteki1987]

Hey man, great video, i coincidentally bought a GTX 1050ti recently to upgrade this exact system and found your video while searching for the answers. I got stuck at the GTX 1050ti part - the fans spin, but i can´t get any picture whatsoever. Any ideas? I´ve tried updating the BIOS to the latest version, nothing, a user on the Lenovo forums suggested i update the ME firmware to the latest version which is what i´m about to do now, but out of curiosity, did you happen to have any issues with running the card?

[@vladimirzh546]

Was the power enough for 4770 and gtx 1650? Did you test it in games and Aida stress test?

[@Adrian-te3fz]

should be fine ... no need unnesesary strees test in bench ...

[@mathisblair2798]

Thanks for this video. I have this computer and plan on upgrading it best I can here within the year.

Hi.

[@fabsenbmx]

I love that this has an intake fan over the HP equivalent

[@uvqnqjqcansj7214]

Do you need a bios update for this VGA?

[@lt4pwr383]

Great Video, I have a Lenovo Thinkcentre M800 Small, planning on turning it into a gaming pc, I just installed a Samsung 980 Pro 1TB SSD, changed the i5 for an i7 6700k, 32GB Vengence LPX 2133 memory, I have a Gefore GT730 2GB video card, do you think I might be able to step it up to a 1050 like you installed on this one or is that pushing it too much? I think mine comes with a 210w power supply. Thanks

[@mxkdt]

Hi, thanks... yes that 210w power supply is to low for gtx 1050, and you can install gt 1030 with gddr5 low profile video card or rx 550 4gb low profile you can use also that would work fine with 210w power supply...

[@mohanshiva_musical]

how much ram it can accomodate?

Did you have to setup windows with the on board graphics first?

I have the same motherboard It has i54460 and 8gb ram and upgraded case and powersupply,do you think RX570 will work on it sir?

[@reixe10]

Hi bro in this computer u can put a graphic card ddr5? And what card u recommend to me i have 80$

[@MBSGAMES_]

So the shield around the cpu fan can be removed without problems?. Im planning to put a full size evga (pci powered) card horizontally where the bracket slots are.

[@agampuri3347]

Can I use a 3.4 ghz processor instead of using a processor between 2.2 to 3.2 GHz in this pc??

[@Anthonythe]

If I made a hole in the case, to fit it, would a Rx 560 8gb work with this pc ?

[@istvanszabo767]

Ah, and I broke out the little separator on the backplane of the case between the 2 slots occupied by the vga card. Usually in brand cases there are separators between all the slots to evade to mount double slot cards.

[@newstyla8579]

Very informative Vid!But how about the DDR3 ram?Ican mine only get to run at 1333mhz and there is no option in Bios to activate xmp.

I tried turning on uefi and installing windows 10 on the sata drive after having Collin do the mod. Im not having any luck getting the system to boot from the drive at all. Do i need a certain m.2 drive to get it to boot? The drive is blatantly excluded from the boot order. I want mine to boot like Collin's. Ive done legacy with csm and set it up as gpt and still even though the sata drive is usable after booting no matter what i try it wont bring up the drive as bootable.
