My Windows XP Gaming PC Dream Build

[@salamanderman3757]

man i love these older systems so much i picked up a 20$ am2+ system and copped 2 hd 4870's for 10$ at a e-recycler. it brings me back to a time when i could only dream of having a crossfire/sli setup.

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

Thats the way mate yeah back then even one 4870 was nothing but a dream lol sounds like the perfect setup you have there :)

[@r4z4m4t4z]

nice find! i thought it was a lian li pc 60 when you first showed it for so cheap with that price tag. turned out nice, great efforts. a lego star wars disco would do well inside.

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

I know right so crazy I'm still in disbelief got to love thrift shops. That's a grate idea I'll have to keep a eye out for some Legos next time I go to the thrift shop cheers for watching.

@@TheDiWHYGuy and instead of painting the plastic front of the cd-r im going to copy your nifty litle cut cover

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

@@r4z4m4t4z yeah bro it works good as and if you put a shortcut on the desktop to the drive you can right click to eject it so technically if you already have Windows you don't even need the holes but it is handy in a pinch.

Awesome job man getting that old pc a new life. That's an awesome looking retro pc. Brings me back to the old days.

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

[@Tearsofgaiaurbex2.0]

La boule disco à l'intérieur 😂🤣 💻🪩 J'avais jamais vu ça

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

merci mon ami, c'était nouveau pour moi 😂

[@supermegarichkid2138]

where did you get your windows xp download?

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

Good Question as Microsoft no Longer supports XP you'll need a old CD to install from if your dad or grandpa doesn't have one stashed away, defiantly don't just get it off PirateBay the Windows XP pro 32 bit ISO with all the service packs included would be a terrible option and possibly considered piracy so "don't" burn that one to a CD and install it with that 😉

nice work mikey

[@rshaw5530]

but sorry 98 is better than xp lol

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

Cheers brother

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

It's close also 2000 was not bad

[@sherpafan033]

I still think a Core 2 Quad Q6600 at 2.4 Ghz is better than the Core 2 Duo E8400 at 3.0 GHz because it has twice the amount of cores despite lower clocks

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

If I find one I`ll test it out and I found a big cooler for better overclocking too.

[@Standarduser-m6o]

1:32 I know it took 3 hours to format the drive.

[@TheDiWHYGuy]

Smart, I take it you done a few XP installs on big HHD's...

[@ste76539]

Some people should not be allowed tools. Or computers.
