In terms of storage device, I came up with this ultra Matryoshka setup plan: dual micro SD to single mini card (mPCIE/mSATA), dual mini card to single 2.5 inch SATA (look it up, there's a really neat adaptor of this sort, even supporting RAID), triple 2.5 inch SATA to single 3.5 inch HDD (IcyDock makes those and they are built to a quite high standard), and finally quintuple 3.5 inch HDD to triple 5.25 ODD, which is fairly easily achievable with old school full tower office PCs. That's, like how many, 60 micro SD in total? And 1920 GB worth of storage if that's 60x32G cards set up in all RAID 0? I wonder how the thermal will be like if anything ever ran through such a monstrosity.

I still have an AMD A series APU based desktop. I bought it in about 2012-13 when these things came out. It was the first and to my knowledge only AMD product to feature crossfire between the built in GPU and external GPU which I tool advantage of. The components were relatively cheap at the time, and it was halfway decent for games of that era, but it became outdated near instantly. It does still serve as a general purpose PC to this day and performs this task admirably.

you should have upped the frequency of that RAM and/or replace it with an equivalent dual-stick kit and retest the system that way. I bet the performance would get somewhat better. I also missed the cinebench benchmark.

Dawid, would like to see a updated video on what the i5-3570K can still do with a new 3070 RTX.. Does it bottleneck enough to matter ? My nephew is rocking my old one on an Asus K77 board.. and well its still doing it. So he wanted to know which way to upgrade.. and I am hard pressed to say he needs to replace the MB or Processor ( He has a 1660 ti ). I mean a video where you benchmark era specific video cards with it and then move up to the various generations, 970, 1070 2070 and 3070.... and see what it can still do.

Im using an old optiplex for my sons gaming pc. The biggest problem is that you often cant physically mount a real gpu in the dell case, there is just no room. Im using a gforce 760 and its quite large. Finally had to rig it up in an aftermarket case to get it all working. Dell's proprietary accesory boards like usb and audio dont fit anything as they are non standard so they just kind of hang out the front, but with the dell's i7, 16gb ram and the old gtx760, the thing works pretty darn good. Plays his games at 1080p no problem. It's definately viable if you have the stuff lying around. Cheers.

Dawid, there's a point there - some poor sole might leave a packaging cover over the front panel. If not told to remove it. And,the APU's graphics might be better,then 710.

The old Dell Optiplex method is still solid. I bought a refurbished Optiplex in October of 2020 with an i7 APU from 2013, 8 GB DDR3 ram, 512gb SATA SSD and I bought a GTX 1650 and another 8gb stick of ram and a 1080p monitor and got a hand-me-down razer mouse and keyboard to pair with it. Over the next year and a half ish I upgraded the case, then the power supply, then the motherboard and CPU and RAM, then the CPU cooler, then I added a ton of storage, then I fought with the scalpers and upgraded my GPU, then I upgraded my mouse and keyboard. Now the only things left from the original build are my copy of windows and the SATA SSD. Makes me kinda sad that I'm planning on upgrading to an m.2 boot drive and windows 11 next weekend.

You should review the Q300l. I have it since few months and although it’s a nice budget looking case, the airflow is actually not that good at all … I’m starting to regret my purchase. You could try to improve it maybe in a video, it would be cool.
