New stuff + new prototype + unboxing + cleaning - RETRO Hardware

[@TheDc1984dc]

Just watched LGR and he just used that case on his 98 build.

Every time I watch a video it brings me back to my days when I got my first pc it was a windows 98 pc that had 13 gigs of storage 250 megs of ram and I can't remember if it was intel or amd but I spent so many hours in my room where I built a fort for my bed playing age of empires 2 and jamming out to music. What a damn simple time I use to have in an Era that was dominate by windows xp and Vista. I think I may plan for my 2 weeks of paid vacation this year and search for old old pcs to fix up and resell to maybe make a few retro gamers and sleepers.

[@kaczan3]

RETRO Hardware is the last boss of collecting retro computers. He's super OP.

[@xenonkay]

Ultra brand power supplies were responsible for so many of the dead computers I worked on in the 2000s. I'm not surprised in the least to see charred connectors on one of their coolers.

10:40. That is the exact same problem I had about 10 or 11 years ago with the exact same board. I was really happy to get what looked like a really high end board for next to nothing, paired with a reasonable CPU and my mate was even kind enough to lend me the DDR2 out of his own PC when he went to work! Sadly I too did not have switcher cards, and the board would not even post!

[@istvankelemen3376]

Another great episode!! It was good to see, that you care with passion and love for these good old hardwares! :-)

[@ronniezzzz]

cant help noticing all the retro gear stacked up too

[@nostromooo646]

Класс!! Если совсем тяжко отмыть платы,можно помыть в посудомоечной машине,а потом спиртом пройтись

i'm pretty sure that's the Same case LGR used in his last video which i just came from .. What a coinc.

[@HuntersMoon78]

it is the same case *Coincidence.

[@CharlieQ7400]

too lazy to type.

[@FilipHnizdil]

Please more asmr/satisfying cleaning

[@Deftard]

Should rename his Channel to Retro Legend. Yes

[@jonstechchannel]

I'm very interested in knowing some history on that prototype card, maybe a video ;)

[@RETROHardware]

Something like "Prototype video part 2" will be in future because I have more new ES stuff, but I don‘t know when ... in few months. I need to finish lot of different projects during winter.

[@jonstechchannel]

@@RETROHardware Well I'll be here waiting and watching all your upcoming projects! :)

[@Nevakonaza.]

That book is so awesome,Whats the little black connector for on the back of the HD6800 at 3:10 underneath the GPU bracket? never seen that before on a card.:)

[@RETROHardware]

Maybe diagnostics/monitoring connector or something like this.

[@vishftw]

I have an exam in half hour, instead of studying im watching your video. Cuz you need peace of mind while giving exams.

[@Synthematix]

Beautiful old lian li case, this and the original Antec Super lanboy are my favourite cases of all time.

[@3dfxlegacy]

I hope you enjoy my book. Greetings from Spain.

[@btsm_it]

I like watching your movies in the background when I do something with computers myself :D

[@RaPtOr9600]

Happy new year bud, great video as always

[@alberthakvoort8473]

The winfast A350 is still looking good. They made some pretty good design choices there.

[@Elios0000]

you have a Celeron 300A or 333A rattling around there could be fun put that under your phasechange cooling that thing was a beast of an overclocker back in the day

16:20 i still own this board back when im still using C2D E6600 with 8800GT... it's still working fine now as retro game pc... still keep the original box and acc too...

[@hateWinVista]

Wow good stuffs especially that Abit board with an evaluation BIOS.

[@AG-pm3tc]

I really wonder how it preformes and how the hell did he got that thing.

[@Электроника-25]

02:00 - даже не знал, что такие книги, посвященные 3Dfx, кто-то ещё и писал. Nice !

[@TheAskari2222]

So when are we going to see Doom running on that Libretto?

[@ItIsNot1984]

I liked that Libretto. Very interesting mouse controls.

[@IcebergGamingTop10s]

[@xxxxxx-ef7ni]

Libretto is just awesome! At the time it was released I could sell my soul for that device 😂

[@ypoora1]

That Libretto definitely needs a new speaker! ;) Othe than that i loved the ABIT proto board and the ATI/AMD 6850 card.

[@gordonfreeman320]

Wow, the Libretto laptop is really cool! I’m glad it works great.

[@logan17880]

where do u get ur retro parts

[@marcoaltomare4030]

You know you are great right? Retro God. But also, I like how relaxing the videos are

[@RetroTinkerer]

Hello, interesting video, one question, what do you mean by petrol? Gasoline, diesel, Isopropyl Alcohol or something else? Thanks!

[@RETROHardware]

i don‘t know what is right marking in english. Just clean petrol without additives ... no diesel or gasoline to car.

[@RetroTinkerer]

@@RETROHardware thanks I will do some research, whatever you are using seems to work great!

[@ethanspaziani5269]

1 where the hell did you get that graphics card and 2 how does it perform / what are its specs

[@xxxxxx-ef7ni]

What is special in biostar motherboard? It's rather new compare to other stuff

[@RETROHardware]

Will go under compressor.

[@dariopetrusic4215]

the Libretto is fantastic, but laptops from that era have terrible TFT displays (especially for games), I wonder if one could replace it with a modern one

[@mrmumrik8722]

I have had one of those librettos.. Sold it because i didnt use it... Could not work with that tft

[@boredalot]

Did you forget to apply new thermal paste on the GPU?

[@infi84]

so that's where that caddy drive ended up, nice score, I wanted to buy that, but I was on holiday ^^

[@carabistouillenounouille3370]

waw i want all of your stuff omg

[@classic_jam]

Wish I had a PC-60 so bad, I have so many retro parts that are worth but no good case. A LANBOY or PC-60 or Thermaltake Tsunami Dream would make my day.

[@antwanarmstrong5987]

The ball bearings for fans on that leadtek A350 tend to dry out after a long time. Regreasing them should get rid of that fan whine like it did with mine.

[@MsJinkerson]

you have a lot of nice equipment there you are lucky

[@WouterVerbruggen]

I had a P45 board some years ago which could do both DDR3 and DDR2 memory. Never needed any "switch modules" tho... Weird that this boards needs those...

[@hardwarecollector2097]

I do own the same model, it in deed does need these switch modules to work. Iam glad it came with the modules, so i can build a system around that board.

[@Pidalin]

I had P35 MSI and it needed switches which looked like another RAM modules

[@deathcube2006]

that fatality board looks pretty neat! although its a sample

[@pedroferreira4323]

i really like the look of your cpu cooler, it's a very pretty brown

[@zZAPp-fi]

Libretto is cute especially with that beep at startup seems fitting well for a Hipster, maybe you could make some good money :D

[@cassandralyris4918]

Opens up the old laptop, sees bad caps of doom...not today, Satan...

[@Ironclad17]

8:00 I've heard the tim under the ihs for these cards can also age badly.

[@marianistefanoj]

That abit fatal1ty was really nice for those times.... I still dreaming with an Asus Striker Extreme / rampage or maximus formula (serie I or II) s775 and crosshair for amd, I think i wanna have one of each motherboard released from each era 🤣

[@Mini-z1994]

Oh didn't even know hd 6850 prototypes were out there, yeah i was thinking it was a HD 5770 or HD 5750 here with that eggshape cooler on there, had a xfx 5770 with that cooler and it eventually died out of nowhere for me after i benchmarked it one day after a good cleaning. Think that card with a better third party cooler 130w tdp or better cooling capacity would do good for games between 2004 - 2012 easily on the hd 6850 prototype with a fps limiter too say 75 if you got a screen with a 70hz refresh rate. Also that fatal1ty board, i didn't know they even sold one with his branding, I'd save that bios rom for sure if you can. I know they had headsets with his name on them from creative. (Were alright sounding, bit bass heavy & cable was garbage that broke within a year I'd say. Was a lottery if you got a working mic sometimes too i had 2 with broken mics out of the box before getting a third one that worked fine returning them.)

[@Mini-z1994]

Also just a few hours ago i got in a pc with a dead motherboard (The person knew my dad which ofc then spoke too me about fixing it up as it suddenly shut down on the bigger brother of the person who now got the pc.) B85 chipset I5 4440 motherboard was a bit of a mess, broken pins in the usb 3.0 header, some liquid damage ontop of that around the cpu socket which i cleaned off. (Sb light ticks off & on every few seconds, 0 response with new powersupply,ram,gpu & cleaning through it with chemically clean gasoline & screen cleaning wipes.) I5 4440 8 gb ddr3 which is relatively good still for a entry level gaming pc.GPU is the 2011 monster from AMD a HD 6990 at 305 mm long it's a pretty cool pcb, did get too peel the plastic off as i noticed it taking an earlier picture of it that it looked off around the asus logo on it. The HD 6990 was very much in need of a cleaning & fresh thermalpaste before i put any 3d load on it which I'll continue tomorrow. Setting up my test system for tonight with my slowpoke aka test gpu a asus 8500 gt 512 mb. (It overclocks really well for a 8500 gt but its a 8500 gt so it doesn't mean much ahah ^^ 730 mhz core & 420 mhz memory, think shader clock was past 1600 mhz with an accelero l2 on it.) pcb of it here as I'm working on the cooler atm. Somewhat crappy pcb shot with my old android phone a huawei p9 puu.sh/EWr2n/3596ed9998.jpg Couldn't fit it in my main pc here or my dads pc that i got here atm so i built a socket 775 system for now too test it on a kitchen chair lol. Copper slug cooler & the core 2 duo e8400 with my 4 gb kit of ocz reaper 1066 mhz ram running at 800 mhz for now, didnt want too bother with setting up timings & voltage tweaks so left it at 800 mhz & voltage too them at 1.9v. It won't be able too stretch it's legs for sure in newer benchmarks & games other then perhaps my own pc with a I5 2500 @ 3.9 ghzBut at least I'll be able too test it in that system once I've put it together again properly & can return it in good shape too its owner rather then leaving it dusty & having it die early on them it will work hard in non crossfire probably most of the time.(Because crossfire support is ofc awful even on this generation of gpu's.) (I kind of want too keep this just because it's such a ridiculously large card & a much faster sibling too my old hd 6870 ofc. It's a really cool showpiece too have for sure too ofc. But unfortunately they'll probably want it back due too them needing a graphics card for now that plays relatively modern games, recommended them too get a am4 system & put together a dirt cheap bunch of components. (ryzen 5 2600 non x 2x4 gb sticks of 2666 mhz ram & B450 motherboard it was about 260€ out of i think 288€ (3000 sek budget too fix a gaming pc for them using most of the hardware from the old one.)

And a aopen PSU And 2 Old LG 32x Drives And A Old idk black Case that is missing his left door and right door so i can fix all problems easily! And a Floppy drive And A Biostar TA785GE128MB Motherboard with integrated 128 MB Graphics! (And the vid card is 512mb) it boots up to win 10 in 5 seconds when i press the button! Why is my pc so fast but so old? The 2 seconds of it is post screen and if i disable post message it will boot up in 3 seconds! Why is my pc is faster than new pc's?

Amazing hardware collection, but the videos ... they lack dynamism, you need a script to make it more entertaining to watch. I dont want to sound disrespectful ... just a tip.

[@RETROHardware]

Np thanks for feedback. This is thing for one million dollar "make it more entertaining to watch" :-) Tell me more about way ho to do it and me or any xxx video creators will get 10M views for one video. Back to reality.: I can keep this way (not best). Some creators are more crazy with crazy edit and you can read comments like "you are to much crazy, your edit is funky". Simply I(or anybody) can‘t make videos for 100% people.
