​@infowarrior6644 sadly not, with a tdp of 115 it would still need a bit of extra juice.

[@rx7negaming]

@@King_K_Rool_ actually every rtx 40 series card reaches to a tdp of almost 110-115w so its literally the same thing even if nvidia marked it as tgp of 140w which shows in the nvidia control panel. for example the rtx 4060 in my acer predator helios neo 16 2023 laptop has 140w tgp but it reaches till 115w (i did benchmark tests and saw reviews too for every laptop which has a gpu from the rtx 40 series), cuz the rtx 4060 cards are 'power-efficient' as nvidia says.

Really enjoying your videos, you inspired me to try out a project SFF rig for fun. Just got an HP 600 G4 SFF in today for $147 (shipped + tax). It's a little chunky imo, but I'm gonna stick with it and see what I can do. Didn't realize how perfect the SFF size and weight was on that Dell 3240 (Kinda wish I waited lol). Looking forward to more content!

[@Anuitu2u]

I think the SFF would be heavier. The SFF would be around 5Kg. The Dell Precision 3240 Compact is 1.72Kg. Also the dimension is like 2 dell optiplex 7050 Micro stacked side by side.

You might not "get significantly more FPS" from the 12GB version, but you can certainly enable higher settings and textures. In games like Hogwarts Legacy even with DLSS the cards with 8GB were vested by 12GB RTX 3060 (non-Ti) lol

[@hattrickjmr]

Mr. Prime, do a side by side comparison of the A-2000 vs. the RX 6400 in that special little PC of yours. The A-2000 is a little pricey and the 6400 is a lot more budget friendly.

[@laurencet7032]

As far as games go… it has been apparent that cyberpunk has been your main “stress tester” for your builds of late. I think a new one to add to that is Returnal, which has only recently been released on pc, loads of graphics options to tinker with, not many have tried to get it running on lower end systems (at least from what I’ve been able to find on KZbin so far as of this scribbling). I’d really like to see you try returnal on this, and any other builds in future videos!

[@Blurredborderlines]

Returnal isn’t really much of a stress test unless you turn on RT at which point what are you trying to prove by comparing it to a non-Nvidia device? Even most mainline Nvidia GPU’s can’t properly run RT as it becomes overwhelmingly CPU bottlenecked unless you’re rocking a 4080 or higher.

I work on a lot of dells of very different sizes and when you opened this up i realized that it's basically a vertically stretched dell ultra small form factor. Made wider to fit a video card. It even uses a very similar cpu cooler to deel usff PCs, but i definitely can see the temps being a lot better

[@MINI_91]

You made me buy a SFF Optiplex back in December last year and while I am happy with it for my retro gaming needs, I kinda wished I didn't, so I could build this one instead. Oh well, nice video and I am looking forward to the STEAM OS build with this PC.

[@MINI_91]

@@JamieStuff Very true. And if you don't buy when you feel the time is right, you will never get said thing either.

[@Micromation]

This one is MUCH more expensive than your Optiplex though. With these SSF PCs, Acer Veriton N series miniPCs are worth considering - they have full size PCI-E x16 slot under the cover. (they have attachment for plugging in GPU but unfortunately I have never seen any for sale separately... not a problem 3D printing one tho)

[@JackTheMac]

I would not recommend this series of dell desktops, I work in IT in a business that exclusively uses dell. I have recently had to pull every one of those precisions for crashing and overheating issues and replace them with standard sff optiplex models. If you get one, make sure it has good access to cool air and repasting the cpu is not a bad idea either. They also get very loud under load, sounds like a mini jet engine.

I've been running a 1050ti LP for a few years, really enjoyed it. I have one of those A2000's arriving today to pair with an EliteDesk with an i7-8700 - I like the larger form factor because there are more cooling options. Right now when doing PS3 emulation, it'll jump up to about 80c. Hoping to get that down to the 60's with some other things I have on the way. Thanks for the demo!

[@wvjeepguy8178]

You can mount a case fan externally if it comes down to it. Cut a hole in the side of the case and use a fan screen guard.

[@allthings3d]

Great find as always. Keep in mind that your RTX A2000 is PCIe x16 generation 4 (16 Gbps), and the Intel Gen 10 is gen 3, (8Gbps) and only DDR4. The Dell Precision 3260 is a 12th gen i5 with DDR5 memory that is being sold as low as $600. Same case. A better deal is to find a system with a 11th gen Intel which has gen 4 memory. Keep in mind you have to make sure your riser is gen 4 certified. Don’t think you can get by with gen 3. I tried with two different riser cables, one of hight quality and even a 3cm PCB vertical riser - none worked until forced it to gen 3. PCIe 4th gen riser cables start at $40. I did get better results, especially after replacing the heat conductive foam with a copper shim plate. You can also change out the shunt resistor with a lower value to increase the 75W limit and solder a 12VDC power cable to a 12VDC source and ground to push A2000 further with MSI Afterburner. 8000 points in 3D Mark is doable without it exceed 80c. PS the foldable M6/RX6400 is almost done. Still working out the folding hinge design. 3D Mark graphics score of 3422 (sadly the n5150 CPU score was a piddly 1568). Still it beats the Ryzen 6900HX with over clocked DDR5 memory. To bad the company behind the M6 didn’t have the foresight to add to M.2 PCIe slots. In any case runs “Stray” 1080P, 60fps high settings and “Dead Space” 2023 at 1280P, 60fps at almost all high settings. More than enough to meet my limited gaming needs. Even better works great over Sunshine/Moonlight.

[@spacebobaa2229]

Hi, if i were to solder a 12VDC power cable to the source, can i use a 6 pin power extension cable? And can i use any of the 6 wires in the cable? And should i remove the other wires?

[@jurpo6]

The gen3 will not hold back an a2000 whatsoever. A 4090 barely saturates a pcie 3.0 slot. A gpu is not pcie generation specific, the only thing you need to pay attention to is how many lanes the card utilizes (ie the 6500xt on a 3.0 slot).

[@allthings3d]

@@jurpo6 Actually compared PCIe 3 & PCIe4 with I5 10th gen & 11gen and there is about 8-10% improvement with PCIe 4th gen x16. I did most of these test in 2023, but can dig up the results from 3DMark. The same holds true with the AMD RX6400, especially since it is only uses 4-lanes and the faster clock improves its performance too. Again were are looking at 5-10% if that. So yes, getting a new/used MB or CPU probably will not be worth it.

[@AaronHendu]

I am looking at building an "ultralight" pc for my bicycle camper...the motherboard from this would be a great candidate for the build.

The case will be custom...as little metal as possible, probably fiberglassed foam and plastic bits from my scrap case heap. I am even removing things like PSU housing and just mounting the PSU PCB inside the case. I have also been looking at laptop motherboards. Price is basically the determining factor when I go to order, but I will check into these motherboards as well. Or even a whole system and flipping the extra parts on ebay or something.

This thermal paste replacement stuff is always fun in my eyes. Had a i5 3570k watercooled undervolted and overclocked running for 10 years with the same arctic silver 5 paste. When i removed it finally cause the watercooler had to go the paste was surely a bit goe but aside of that provided for 10 years the same temps. So i guess it´s not really that important unless you choose to go with the cheapest gunk you can find.

[@DanielGT_93]

Found an Core 2 duo E6850 with an MSI p7n diamond and with Asus Orbe cooler in the university storage today. Turn it on with an ssd and stress test it, didnt passed 55 degrees. When changed the paste (it was dry) it went to 53. So, they used a good one.

[@snakeplissken1754]

@@DanielGT_93 Which is arguably even more impressive. As in my case the system was running pretty much daily for hours. In your case the system ran at one point and then the parts have been shelved for god knows how long with no heat applied i´d assume the effect on the paste would be even worse over the years. But 2 Degrees? That is within tolerance and/or duo to a bit better paste now being used. So in the end, changing paste is irrelevant, at least if you used proper paste to begin with.

I built a similar rig with the A2000 6GB in the Precision 3460 Small Form Factor in March as well. The need to run at base clocks no turbo with a fan using an i5 12500 while still being *VERY* warm and throttling constantly was an annoyance of mine. The first strike was the rough stability situation in games with frame rates fluctuation even locked at 60fps in triple A and locked 120-165fps in e sports. It just could not perform consistently. The noise on the desk where such a machine would stay ended up being the final straw. I am holding out for 784X HS variant small form factors for the time being. The dream of Noctua 120mm 800-1200rpm levels of quality woosh sound in a small, but not tiny form factor especially under 100 watts load *Mwuuaah** perfecto.

Can confirm. This was a Precision but Optiplex are similar in terms of durability. I'm using a 4th gen 3020 SFF to type this. Bought it refurbished over 3 years ago when it was off-lease and thus 3 years old already, and still running strong. Bought it with i5-4590 and 8GB, 320GB HDD. Upgraded it to 16GB, GT 1030, 240GB SSD (later upgraded to a 1TB SSD with DRAM cache), 4TB HDD, PCIe SATA host adapter so I could keep the DVD, NetGear A6100 USB WiFi, not necessarily in that order. Runs every game I've tried at least passably. Looking at an RX 6400 for it's "final" upgrade, unless I can also find an i7-4790 (or similar Xeon with iGPU for the QSV) for cheap.

Having just completed this build, I can honestly say it's not worth it. I like the small form factor, but there just isn't enough cooling capacity for everything that's stuffed inside the case. The limitations of the Dell motherboard restrict it's usability in the long term. If you're thinking of building a gaming rig, stick to more conventional options.

Do you think, you can fit A2000 with n3rdware single slot cooler inside? Without any trimming to the case?

[@visibleconfucionez3938]

Kinda wish you showed this step by step still a great built tho

[@windwalker210]

How about a mini case with oculink GPU and the um780 xtx mini pc with possible water cooling corsair?

[@blerble]

Is it possible to ghetto fit 2 x 3.5" disks inside that case without doing a GPU card?

Can u make a custom build with the Case of the "Lenovo thinkcentre m600 10gj" ?

[@bustergundo516]

Nice. may have to check this out.

Just want one of these just for gfn 4080 tier. Have to upgrade a laptop I use currently.

I just did the very same build and I was able to fit the A2000 nicely but my temps are really high when gaming. After about 10 mins the temp constantly set above 80 degrees and the area around the GPU gets very hot to the touch. I'm trying to figure out a way to improve air flow but I don't see any room for another fan inside the case. I'm very tempted to build a custom open case and use a few fans on each side to get air in and out. If anyone has any idea, I'm all ears.

Id love to see battlefield 2042 tested, ive been wanting to build something small for so long and this looks promising

Lenovo is building systems (ThinkStation P360 Ultra) with the same form factor, 12th Gen CPUs with lots of DDR5 and Lenovo doesn't charge $600 for 32GB DDR5 either like Dell does and you can get the 12GB version of the A2000 included with their configs. Much better system if you ask me since you do not need to mod it to get the A2000 to fit.

[@Xichumchumtruyenma]

Should compare p360 ultra with dell 3260 I/O this one. 3260 can pair with 13th Gen Intel and A2000 (no need any mod).

[@riboiman4005]

If you want an A2000 but still want the SteamOS look and feel, you should have Big Picture Mode enabled on startup. Regardless, it would be interesting seeing the RX 6400 with SteamOS.

[@PU4P1E_rbx]

With that GPU i can change that A2000? Like to be some cheaper.

Hey, I think this would be really cool with the new 4060 single slot by galax that is coming out soon
