Im a colector.

[@kaykiekid]

So cool, with all that retro stuff I would retire and spend the rest of my life just testing. Ah man, wish I could. Great video, thanks.

[@chocolatemilkinafijibottle4143]

No one does videos like yours that ive found and i love the videos you make. It give me a warm feeling watching these old parts spin up to life, just makes me happy.

[@_huskysoul1512]

I like this channel more and more. I envy a pure heart that this person has access to all this iron, which he carefully stores.

[@jackhawkins469]

love the old school cpu coolers, that takes me back

[@WouterVerbruggen]

22:00 The only really bad bent pins are in the power sector, in which most pins are redundant. So that fixing has a good chance of success :)

[@rileyEJ257]

This was awesome, I love the HD 4670 AGP card and the 8800Ultra. Keep up the great videos!

[@PC-Gamer-000]

I'm a collector of Windows 95 software programs. I run them on my Dell Inspiron 1501. I aim to spend as little money as possible on the software I purchase. Typically I get lucky and I spend on a range of two dollars to six dollars, with free shipping included.

[@danielgeno6624]

Im big fan of your channel, you get dream hardware. here in argentina because of economic situation in last 20 years hardware like that was available but very limited to people with a lot of money. So its double difficult to find because most go to trash container and very few goes online for sale. The geforce5700ultra i have never seen here, and the voodoo3 motherboard never seen here. Also those coolers are a dream of heaven era of pc modding (around athlonxp and athlon64). My first cooler was volcano 7 coolmod, with blue and pink Led lights. I enjoy a lot watching your collection because that hardware is lost forgotten and beautiful designs that you will not see again released , even reviews from that era have missing picures and you have to go to wayback machine to actually see something from that time.

[@natanael4833]

@@LaUltimaEsperanza La inflación no es el responsable principal, sino que los componentes valen mucho más acá debido a la aduana y los impuestos a las importaciones. Si querés que los componentes importados sean más fáciles de conseguir votá a Espert.

[@911delorean]

22:16 the reason why the onboard video isn't working is because only certain i series CPUs have a integrated video chip on the cpu, which to my knowledge are Westmere based i5 and i3 only.

[@kcinplatinumgaming2598]

Its amazing how old tech out lasts new tech !! used to love fiddling with old graphics cards ... i a bit like you could just test old hardware ...

[@juancarlos22mx]

Heaven on earth.

[@uncannyfox]

Loved it! Good to know I'm not the only hardware hoarde--- I mean collector out there. Show us the cleaning process.

[@DarkiCraftS]

some motherboard brand have video chips that are disabled, a jumper located on the motherboard, base my pc was only pci compatible but after searching I learned that my cpu had a integrated gpu and that to activate it you had to find a jumper, or go into the bios

[@andycristea]

23:00 The i7 860 does not have a graphics core built in, that's why it didn't work. The onboard ports are for i3, i5 etc that have a graphics core included. :D

[@felipemattos7448]

OMG! it,s amazing. I'm watching from Brazil. :)

ahhh that delta 7200 turning on. Brings back memories.

i remember i used that volcano 7+, blue heatsink with copper insert for the base, to cool my duron 600 @ 900 MHz, it still burn in my brain how loud it's fan to this day.

[@Nevakonaza.]

I remember when i bought the asus silent knight 2 during my Core 2 Duo E6300 days then upgraded to Q6600,Great cooler!

[@djarsh1]

In India still core2duo is a very common processor cause lots of people using it as their main pc

[@ИванХомяков-в7я]

Athlon 750 - первый процессор. Под Socket 7 у нас были только материнские платы Tomato. Всю жизнь мечтал увидеть I7 с видеокартой PCI. 2 штуки S3 Trio, S3 Virge лежат в гараже. Riva TNT2 и GeForce 4 mx 440 тоже были в использовании. Socket 775 у нас еще активно используется с Xeon от китайцев (E5462 на asus P5q-e) GA-8PE800 недавно была в ремонте, сгорел южный мост - на запчасти.

I have that same trident vga card in my 386sx tower only it forgets its a color vga card some times and needs to be power cycled a random number of times to display colors again lol

[@benrogersdevon]

I had an Aero7 cooler for socket 462 (socket A), and has a thermal take volcano 7+ - noise much 😂!! I couldn’t have mine on full cos I couldn’t sleep, but was a decent cooler! Have had a lot of Kingston hyper x memory. Had ATi Rage pro and the S3 from ancient PC’s! Have had the same card as the gigabyte one. Also had a HIS Radeon with the iceberg cooler but mine was the 4650 or 4850 Radeon

[@dirkbittner8833]

I also have 4 old AGP cards from ATI and Ge Force.

[@3HOCFRESKO]

good channel. it reviews stuff that I dreamed to have when I was a teenager but I did not have the money.

[@justbubba4373]

Where did you find that 4670 AGP? I've been trying to get my hands on one of those for years.

[@DuneRunnerEnterprises]

What a glorious pile🎉🎉🎉!!

[@foxxy46213]

those volcanoes was my fave 80mm. the orange later ones had a temp sensor or a by pass for full. they was amazing for cooling an over clocked chip. think they was like 3800rpm or more load as hell tho

[@stifskere7220]

i really like that white pcb edit: nice video!

[@benrogersdevon]

Have you heard of Winbond BH5 DDR1 memory ? I used some before in my 3500+ a64 that I clocked from 2200 to 3280Mhz on air. The memory clocked to 285MHz 2-2-2-5 and 280MHz with CL1.5-2-2-5 timings, and was some of the best clocking DDR1 ever, though I realise Samsung tccd was great too !

90's pc were loud AF... kind of a challenge to make a retro silent pc XD

[@Dman216]

theres not many coolers for those older sockets the first wacky looking coolers were for socket 370's p4 started in late with heatpipe coolers..alot of companys made universial cooler too with diffent locking mechs yu would screw to teh bottom of the heatsink

[@honzik7979]

Or some PC with complete passive cooling.

[@honzik7979]

@Abu Misir Yes, but it would be interesting.

[@honzik7979]

@Abu Misir That´s right, but you can find some old components which is relatively good. And imagine old computer, with old hardware, which is completely quiet. But, I agree with it´s mostly not great.

[@ltux90]

I personally don't care about the sound, there is something immersive into it... I don't really like silent computers, i'm a weirdo :D

Where do you get ahold of all this great hardware? Also, I try not to see myself as a hoarder as I usually don't keep broken hardware that's beyond repair, and if I own something that I have no use or desire to own I'll try to sell it or give away. Mostly as I don't like throwing out working hardware that might be of interest to someone else.

[@RETROHardware]

I'am keeping rare HW with any problem because for watching or parts. In future youcan get sme item with different problem and result is working condition. This need place and time ... sometimes without good end :-)
