GPU is so low wattage component, it works without any overheating with broken heatpipes! PS2 was broken before I started this. =)

[@gptravis7355]

Hey question can I try that too I have two ps2 but I want to do something with 1 of them so can we?

[@bilalmirza7397]

BTA hey ummm sir, is it possible to put a PS2 GPU in a PC, like i have a low Graphic Card thats built in my PC and i can’t afford a good one right now, but i do have an old PS2 which i don’t use now. So is it possible to utilize its graphical components with a PC ????

[@gator4733]

Bilal Mirza sir bial it is not possible becouse the gpu of the ps2 its incrusted in the consola motherboard, and i think ps2 graphics are lower than your actual old graphics card

[@bilalmirza7397]

GATOR GT thank you, can you make a video or comment a link of such a video where the graphics card of a PS2 has been placed in a PC

[@Exessive-Gaming]

What people are trying to say I think is cutting the pipe was an extra step not needed. you could of taken a copper block and it would still passively transfer the heat to the sink. Yes cutting the pipe was probably not smart. some pipes only have cables inside of them and some have gas and liquid. it clearly looks like yours had the gases in it. at this point I'ts more for aesthetic looks than functionality. So all you did was turn it into a passive heatsink. even with the fans on the outside blowing in.

[@Newgodofwar]

When you were cutting those heatpipes, I almost got a heart attack.

[@BaysideBoyz]

I will mon

[@terrapinflyer273]

Filing them down is what got me lol. All those fins...

[@justinfontenot3930]

holy shit I cringed when he cut that heat pipe.....Jesus u got commitment to a project.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Hahaha :). Just finished backplate installation and been benchmarking for last couple of hours or so. MAX temps so far 79'c GPU. Still no overheating. Definitely this project would be happy with custom heatsink for GPU.

[@justinfontenot3930]

BTA yeah those temps aren't too bad for the gpu. they can handle heat a little better. man how are u going to go about power? a custom atx power supply with custom cabling or? if u can find a power supply PCB and fit it in that case with fans then hats off to you. I'm impressed a dedicated gpu fit.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Justin Fontenot I accually have picopsu fit inside, i think i showed that in one of the vids, or did i...? External power brick: Dell DA02 giving the wats needed, picopsu splitting the power.

[@justinfontenot3930]

Ahhh OK that will work. Guess I didn't see that. Well I hope everything goes smoothly and everything. Amazing the power per cubic inch in that case lol.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

+Justin Fontenot Played BF4 last night as one of the test. .I'm really surprised how much GTX 750ti can push frames.

[@fryncyaryorvjink2140]

from the thumbnail i thought you were overclocking and liquid cooling a ps2

[@tijanajakovljevic6319]

Nabre Labre you cant oc consoles

[@CameronAC]

Tijana Jakovljevic lmao you can literally overclock a PSP.

[@AaronH9111]

I still have my original PS2 when it first came out and it still works perfectly

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Ye, me too. For this project i bought use one for 20€. I also have PS One slim in mint condition =)

[@AaronH9111]

I'm not a technical person so I really don't know what you're doing in the video with your PS2...lol But I'll be watching to see how it turns out :)

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

If you enjoy watching thats awesome! Main idea, Gaming Pc inside Playstation 2 case. Easy to carry around if needed. :)

[@AaronH9111]

I see ...Cool ! Will it still be able to play PS2 games?

[@aymanhawari2589]

via emulator....

[@kollusion1]

Love your hard core enthusiasm, & old school ethic!

[@frantisekcerny6677]

one does not simply cut heatpipe

[@sirdigbychickencaesar71]

one was pondering such matters

[@hunterdivirgilio2209]

FINALLY I.FOUND A HIGH QUALITY VIDEO ON HOW TO DO THIS

[@StripeRose]

Gotta say that it hurts watching you break an actual PS2 console for it's case. I hope it was already broken beyond repair at least =/

[@curioso983]

Stripe103 I used to slap my ps2 because i hated it so much, i really enjoy when someone break an ps2, the worst console ever. 😂😂😂

[@StripeRose]

An alright opinion to have. Personally I find it to be the console with most of my favourite games that I still play at least once a week. None the less, I don't like it when a piece of gaming hardware gets destroyed, whether I like the thing or not. They exist in limited amounts, after all.

[@user-cq1qd3yk7j]

he claimed that the ps2 was already dead

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Reusage is better than throwing it away. I have fully working PS One, PS1, PS2(fat), PS2 slim. Then i have stuff i find for projects :)

[@StripeRose]

Well yeah, I'm just saying that it's better to use the countless devices that are already broken, than adding 1 to that number.

[@GundamTech]

the moment you cut the heatpipe, all the gas is gone from the heatpipe man.....

[@d3g3n3r4t3]

i duno wut was more mesmerizing, the build or the fire...

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

^_^

[@TheRealFrankWizza]

How do you get the evaporative cooling from the heatsink when you cut off the vapor chambers?

[@bram19502]

Nice video 👌 greetings from An Old skool mw3 quickscoper

[@dadnkidsplay1]

Wow. That's amazing!

[@shadowr2d2]

Awesomeness Hands Down Man.. I Was Just Thinking Of Doing This Myself.. But When You Were Cutting The Heat Pipes... I Was There Is No Turning Back Now.. You Have A New Subscriber Sir.. *{MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU, - ALWAYS}..

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Hahah thank you!

[@mr.nuggetbombs296]

You are making it one beefy boi

[@SilverScarletSpider]

I love this build

[@dancrawford6029]

PURE ARTWORK.

[@dzunbox1904]

I loved the small wood fire at the end

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

=)

[@ItsKapow]

Looks good!

[@jeffreydevries2459]

What cpu cooler and psu did you use?

[@randomnigga8109]

You gave old console a new life.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

10 000 views! Wow! :)

[@relampagopanzer]

BTA how the hell you only have 688 subs.. by the way.. make it 689 cos i just subscribed😊.. your channel really deserves more views and subs😊😊

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I'm just starting :) I really appreciate your feedback!

[@relampagopanzer]

BTA for real bruh.. make more vids like this and your channel gonna grow

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Thank you :)

[@niklasleyrer9713]

BTA Now 80.000

[@akranesbros]

Amazed... Just amazed

[@club1453]

Frankenstation

[@loneboy1237]

The blue color of the front USB ports suit the PS2 case well

[@daehxxiD]

Really cool, but cutting through the heatpipes... OUCH!

[@isaacrodriguez5297]

What MoBo did you use for this build? Also, what is the ribbon you used to connect your GPU to the motherboard?

[@markianclark9645]

BTA...impressive build...especially the CAD modelling..the 3d printing is excellent...if I had to guess-id say you're at Uni going for a degree...also I was less concerned with heatpipe cutting like other keyboard bashing viewers..I was hoping the ps2 at least had a failed laser..that would justify its disassembly....I use a ps2 now with hdd and mcboot for ps2 and 16bit emulation..good work..great video..thanks...specs

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

For your sadness, i've to say i have my own playstations safely stored and fully working. These i just got for these projects to ''waste''.. Thank you for your comment and that 16bit emulator is also sweet to have!

[@menglv2954]

It is a very cool build

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Thanks :)

[@sanswagosudump6011]

the ps2 was my favourite all time console. me myself has been a ps1 homeboy. I've used all the ps(s) and out of them all the ps2 was the best.

[@isaquepinto8079]

Amazing!

[@calebg5326]

About to say that isn't a big issue cool stuff.

[@andrewdc1]

Hello! what usb port product did you buy? I would like to buy the same one. The one you used to make the usb ports on the ps2 functional

[@vallequalle]

Very interesting to see what tools other people use and how their build looks. I like the dedicated graphics card, but does the cooler still work good enough? I drilled holes into my case and used an active fan because I did not want to compromise on performance.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Yes no thermal throttling and i switched to 1050ti for more FPS.

[@Aloukat]

What motherboard have you used? I currently try the same thing, with a few changes. But no mini-ITX board will have the right dimensions... (wide) Edit: Just mentioned, you insert the Mainboard on the Top-Lid. But i like to add an Bluaray-Drive... and on the bottom Lid i don't have the 17cm to add an Mini-ITX board...

[@yuzu997]

Good job bro xD

[@nashcomp]

I remember watch this when covid times, i buy all the parts in this video but until now they never get finish to build

[@rkgamers4148]

What type of casing for the ps2 series is scph

[@OfficialXarleM]

Filing those fins made my teeth hurt bruhz

[@WhackedMedia]

A console masterpiece being broken down to be a better masterpiece. Such an honor to the PS2.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Thank you for lovely comment!

[@WhackedMedia]

You're welcome : )

[@the9tailsspirit763]

What operating system does the ps 2 has ? And can I boot up it on my pc?

[@jaimenbrunson1652]

I used to volunteer at a technology school We used to rip lots of these things apart in 2003

[@yarazar]

Where do you put the power supply?

[@Noxaros]

dis is SOW COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL !

[@mrroze427]

Whats long is THE GPU Riser i making my model of PS2 gaming pc

[@dalehenrirenomeron3188]

bro what do you call that part in 4:16 where you connect your gpu from the mobo? thanks

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Pcie riser cable 16x

[@verdaodamassa]

AMAZING!

[@jossybeauty4362]

can you gimme a list of what did you put in this buddy

[@themacman0158]

How did you secure the motherboard to the inside of the case? did you make standoffs, or is it just sitting in there freely?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I made standoffs :)

[@mrajay194]

No power issues with pico psu? Heard it only outputs about 200w, is that enough for a gfx card?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Dont remember right now specs for pico I used here, but it was under the limits :). edit. depends what gfx card are you using.

[@televisionandcheese]

What did you do with the internals from the original PS2 after you took them out?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Well power button i took for use, others are mostly waiting for something. Maybe i'll make wooden PS2 case or something. Thank's for comment :)

[@scallum]

What pci-e riser did you use? I'm working on a 360 style build and have been looking for reliable ones...!

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Cheapest one i found, cant remember how long this was right now. 16x to 16x riser.

[@daniyalshakeel7897]

so cringe to watch a ps2 die man thats murder

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Hehe, accually it was dead already. I guess i'm kinda frankestein then? Giving stuff new purpose after death.

[@ZiggyIsGrape]

I think I'll do something like this with mine at some point. It's completely dead now but it looks like fun to try a mini itx build inside if I have the money and time.

[@dbunny7618]

How did you deal with the power supply for the motherboard and the graphic card? Is it external?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

External power supply with internal pcb that splits the power line, like Picopsu.

[@brandonchase849]

I've always wanted to do this with an original xbox case.

[@enginy.5328]

which mainboard did u used?

[@rachmaniarsetyaputri2400]

how you "mount" the motherboard to that case ? in case u can't drill any hole for the mount screw, right ? because it's so thin..

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Glued down some plastic stands for mobo. No drilling needed :)

[@rachmaniarsetyaputri2400]

u create plastic stand with 3d printer ?

[@wazbat1]

Really well done man. I want to do something similar in a fat ps3. What motherboard did you use?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

MoBo: MSI H97I ac. +Answer to your other questrion, yes it's a GTX 750Ti. All i've done today is +6h parts to this project, soon to be finished. =)

[@wazbat1]

I cant wait. I'm doing something similar but still trying to get parts for it. I'm strapped for cash so I'm having to decide what to spend my money on: A) Main desktop upgrades B) Save up for a HTC vive C) Blow 400$ on the parts for this project. I feel a vive would be a gimmick though, so I guess I'm stuck deciding if I should buy myself a nice GPU (Currently on a GTX 950) or blow 200$ on pcpartpicker.com/list/4DWkwV and run the thing off intergrated graphics while I save up for things like a low profile cooler and a half height GPU, or mount it like you did with a riser. I'm also partially screwed PSU wise, as I'm fairly sure I cant fit a full sized ATX PSU in there, so I'm gonna need to find a high wattage ITX PSU, and those are around another 100$. Then that leaves 100$ for the rest of the accesories

[@camelazo]

2:45 Nice job , now your gpu will be twice hotter, maybe you should consider the silverstone raven mini itx enclosure, at least

[@philipwohlmuth508]

Ohh no its a relict why did you do that 😭😭

[@andrewthomsen9952]

I wonder if you could get the PS2 plug-ins for the Controller to work with it.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Need to search about that at some point. Would be definitely nice upgrade if I do a similar one in the future =)

[@regrape]

NIce job i would like to see next gen wii

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Very difficult, maybe at some point in time =)

[@kalmanczekman7517]

Hi! How to make this original power button? Txh.

[@Alissontw]

Yo, would u tell me which itx motherboard you are using? I’m planning on doing something similar, also, do you think a matx board would fit?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Sadly not. Doing this now I would use newer components. Would still need to find fitting ones where power cables and RAM are located.

[@nitronixus9402]

At first i was like: Oh cool a case mod But then saw the desc. HOLY SHIT.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I'm not 100% sure what you mean :). Start filmed in a corner of wooden workshop at winter, then white sheet to give more contrast to black playstation and then selfmade wooden desk with white water-resistant top. Awfully bad lightning conditions in every shot.. Thanks for the comment man!

[@michaelanderson8514]

that's what i need to play everquest project 1999

[@nonalegorical]

console and next gen should never be in same sentence

[@Xgames3D]

what motherboard use in the project? atx or micro atx?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

itx/mitx, 17cm by 17cm

[@jyotishankarnayak397]

BTA u should have used mini itx

[@TheGarageGaming]

brilliant.... now do the slim line 😂😂

[@miroslavkaticic2965]

Criminall!!!

[@MyNameJif]

Is this just a regular mITX mobo?

[@DecibelAlex]

but will it run ps2 games smoothly? didn't think so..

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

With emulator yes =)

[@ramakrishnamishra8179]

Nice

[@EddyXDK]

What hardware did you use?

[@gabotrellez9239]

Al final lo prendió fuego...?

[@jvinsnes]

Doing mine with an i7-4790 and a 1660 super!

[@toorandomenvi]

the definition of hardware gore

[@joaodorjmanolo]

Actually you used components of a pc on a ps2 case? It works fine? (like... emulating games at a good quality?)

[@marounnader6021]

Man if u do it i promiss you 100 subs and views

[@adityaprejasaputra6807]

when console gamers and pc master race fusion

[@joeyhillers9460]

Not too bad quality of a video.

[@CrazyPCgamercatguy]

I really hope this was a dead PS2...

[@andromedabruda34]

It is

[@theassembly6079]

I just personally messaged him about this. Try this www.electroschematics.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/sony-ps2-scph-39001.pdf And scroll down to page 19. Cheers

[@StRinGOfoNiaS]

The Assembly thanks dude, you saved me from creating new pcb

[@theassembly6079]

Hey no problem! Ill be uploading my Laptop version of this video soon

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I've been busy. :(. I simply tested what connections goes to the buttons I need and lights aswell. Soldering iron and done. Still I should make custom PCB for this, simply for easier connections.

[@sawek-st2le]

San Andreas gonna work perfectly on that thing

[@rapneverdie21]

i see a phone on the thumbnail, where is it?

[@sodoo6625]

what i need to do this ? i got dat ps2

[@kevinbarton9052]

You can use a solid state drive as my suggestion.

[@volocat]

I'd love to shove Pentium III & 3dfx Voodoo into PS2 case. Sadly they did not make motherboards so small back then.

[@sirmrmcjack2167]

seing the heatpipe being cut open hurts to see

[@yusufsaood5484]

Who else thought he would throw the PS2 into the fire?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I did once, when I had a bad moment and thought this is doomed.. *smash burn playstation burn!* =)

[@CallMeBangJoy]

hey i want to ask you, what the name cable from vga card to motherboard?

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Pci-e Riser. Lenght 15cm 16x-16x. Trying to copy this project and do it yourself or just trying to find extension for GPU(vga card) connection?

[@CallMeBangJoy]

BTA okey man thank for that im started make this project next month (i hope im not fuck up in this project)

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

I've got so much things i did not see coming 2 disturb my projects... But GL 2 project i'm finishing mine pretty soon (i hope)..

[@ng990]

The power button and open button are inverted.

[@marounnader6021]

Man if youre such a genius can you turn a ps1 into a next gen pc

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Umm lemme try. I'll try to find one first.

[@marounnader6021]

C'mon man didn't you find a ps1 plzz find one and make a video about next gen ps1 pc project plzz i know u can do it u're a genius

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

You have to give me more than 2 days. I've found couple of these, but sadly no deals yet.

[@BTA_KeepItFun]

Playstation bought. Stay tuned..

[@EddyXDK]

model of Motherboard?

[@G0LDB0XB1ZN3Z]

Something like this could heavily use external liquid cooling

[@deffington6627]

So, how many people are now looking for a PS2 case? I don't have balls to cut radiator and pipes. How do you know that the cooling is sufficient?
