How to make an all-in-one workstation PC from scratch (DIY AIO computer)

[@kurapikakurta3863]

The amount of work and precision that went in to this build is astonishing. It really makes me appreciate the amount of work that probably took place when apple decided to make their iMac a lot smaller than it original was when everyone in the computer industry was still building tower pc's. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@sparephone1960]

YATC: "I know it's not a true AIO" Me: "if not, then it's the world's most customizable VESA mountable NUC" You fill me with a little bit more self confidence Everytime I watch a video of yours sir. Thank you!

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks so much for kind words, really appreciate it :D

[@manoliskontos8377]

Don't worry about temps, someone with this build would want it for productive reasons and not for gaming in my opinion. The nicest build aio I've seen! Nice one!

[@mohamedmagdy-dz1pm]

Man, you're a beast. Astonishing build.

That stand looks exactly like an old Dell monitor stand.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Hopefully Dell won't suit me! ;)

DIYs are always satisfying whatever the result. Such aesthetics ans usable end product is icing on the cake.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks much :)

[@MohsinAliWaheed]

Your ideas are really unique compare to the rest of DIY KZbin channels.

[@geniusaur]

You should look at getting some grease for when you're tapping the holes(if nothing else wd40) , it probably won't help you make the threads or anything but will make the tap bit last far longer as it will get dull very quickly without lubricant especially if you're tapping using a drill.

[@acsgdo02]

this should be in kickstarter this is brilliant

[@b5a5m5]

Hey, not sure why you started with the large bit then went with the small one for the acrylic hole pockets. For drill bits, you can actually think of the process like a pilot hole, and drill the small hole first, then the large one, this way your hole location is more precise because your bit won't walk on you. Now if you were using something like a spade bit (which doesn't self center in a hole smaller than it, but larger than the spike in the middle) then definitely drill with the paddle bit first, otherwise if it's classic fluted drill bits it's usually better to go small , then big. Just my 2 cents.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

I used wood drilling bits, which are a bit like spade bits - they have a spike in the middle - that's why I drilled with the bigger one first :)

[@hambacon4810]

Man, starting at 2:18 I thought you were kinda filing your nails lmao

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Haha :)

Now you can just glue on a beelink mini ryzen pc. Times have changed... Great video for its time!

Awesome build! Great DIY skills! Hope to see more such videos in d future.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

I have plenty of ideas ;)

[@k.o.t.o.n.]

@@YetAnotherTechChannel this makes no sense, it is too depth, and not protable. waste of time, looks ugly too. :(

[@postoloskotsakis589]

Looks good. I can imagine the long hours it took to produce.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks :) Yeah, it took many hours...

[@petrbasa5742]

Good performance man. I'm thinking about something similar and was inspired by your wood stand. I'm pretty sure that my next PC will be a DIY All In One. Thanks for the nice video.

[@darthcraft1575]

Still a perfect build and execution

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks so much :)

[@spencerhamilton3858]

Looks great! I would recommend spray paint from the start instead of as a touch up. Love your work!

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

If I had a paint booth, I'd probably do that. Since I don't have conditions to spray-paint properly - lay primer followed by a few coats of paint - I spray painted things 'just enough'... and they would scratch easily - even during the assembly. That's why I prefer to apply a thick layer of paint and then finish it off with the spray paint.

[@lllever]

Not really complicated works and super awesome! Keep doing good stuff bro ;)

[@Irea123]

Cool vid. Only negative point I have: I think you always say the thickness measured in mm false. You say you got 9mm thick steel. But it seemed more like 0.9mm.

[@LilBean99]

Great build! You should make a video showing all the tools and materials you use and what techniques or tips you have. Cheers!

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

In my early DIY videos I did briefly explain how a certain tool works but I figured it would be very repetitive if I did that in every video. A dedicated explainer video that I could refer to is a good idea :)

[@yossiyaari3760]

nice project. you should probably add some weights to the base. that will help with stability.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Changing the design a little bit so the monitor is mounted first not last should do the trick.

[@hypnotyze_]

Saw this on Reddit. Dont know what I watched but I love it.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate you taking your time to watch this and comment :)

[@thesabstreesa9870]

Lot of work and precision, well done and great solution

[@davidpratthk]

Good as a base concept kitchen table project but considering the availability of technology a 3 design exercise with a 3d printer build with strengthening metal inserts, might have had more value.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Interesting idea but not feasible to someone very new to 3D printing.

[@nathanbasset]

Even though its a prototype, I can still add some critiques. - Exhaust fans don't need filters - The CPU fan doesn't even have one

[@marcinlaufer]

I love the neat design of that wooden stand. Great project and editing as always. Best wishes to the little guy ;)

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Thanks very much :) and thanks for your support on Patreon :)

[@XXXLBuHu]

you can use some saw dust from drilling/cutting, mixed with wood glue to fill up the screw(up) holes. I'ts a really cheap solution that will make your diy projects look tad more professional, you're welcome

[@jeremyprior1186]

Build looks amazing. Exactly what I was looking to do as well. Glad to see that someone made it work. 1 question, I see the power connector but can you explain the PSU? Thank you.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

It's the HDPlex nano ATX power supply - www.hdplex.com/ The part that goes into the case is really small - you can see me mounting it at 9:17. The rest is a laptop power brick - a quite large, 330W unit that you connect to the HDPlex PSU.

[@hsynsrky]

Only thing bothers me is that the sound controller stands at the back of the monitor. If you did the monitor stand a bit longer that would be perfect I guess. Other than that it is great.

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Taking that monitor off the wall hanger and putting it back on is PITA, so I just eyeballed where the VESA mounting points are and yeah, it did come out a bit too low, but there is still room on the monitor stand to raise it 4 - 6 cm. Anyways, in case you missed it - I won't be using this computer, so it doesn't bother me at all.

[@JohnPhelyno]

Clean work! Will do this for my 2020 project!

Besides the black screws you need RGB, otherwise it won't work. By the way, I like the acrylic bender, that makes it much easier.

"Yup, You guessed it"....no I didn't ;) I am not a highly skilled tinkerer like you. The build is impressive, however and I am wondering if there are any commercial pc cases on the market that are also a monitor stand...genious idea!

It´s all good an well but how do you clean that thing ? Anmd how do you take care that you don´t bang it somewhere on the corner by accident and brake that whole thing ?

[@TanmoyDasIN]

I was looking for such a solution but you haven't mentioned about the power supply / PSU. Please let me know or give a link because mounting a heavy duty PSU is impossible.

should take the plastics off the screen and wrap them in a wood vinyl, would look dope with the desk

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

This might have looked cool... but I'm just prototyping and thus I wouldn't feel like risking damaging a $1000 monitor ;)

[@norndev]

@@YetAnotherTechChannel Oh for sure, had no idea it was that expensive. Definitely not worth the risk at all. Damn lol

[@sahiltayyab4887]

*What is innovation?* *_Me: This!!_*

[@mgut17]

just add a small stand in the back of the stand, so you have 3 instead of 2, then it would be balanced even without the screen

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

I'd try to change things a bit so the monitor attaches first and then the computer.

[@DoomWalker42]

That is such a goregous PC case! You make some incredible and inventive builds! Would you be willing to sell something similar to this? I would be willing to pay for shipping if the case comes with an HDPlex power supply (300 watts would be enough for me) and a non vesa mount. I know that the vesa mount is the intended purpose of the build but with a translucent acrylic side panel it could look fantastic as a standalone case not just an all in one. It wouldn't be that hard to make feet for the case. Out of curiosity, does the HDplex 300 require an external power brick to run?

Siedzę sobie przy swoim komputerze w 20-letniej obudowie i z prawie świeżym mięsem, oglądam ten filmik i mam ochotę pojechać do Castoramy, wydać resztę pieniędzy i samemu zmajstrować podobną rzecz... albo ciut inną :) P.S. Zaraz... "My wife's wedding skirt"? Pańska małżonka poszła przed ołtarz... w spódnicy? :)

[@YetAnotherTechChannel]

Włożenie świeżego mięsa do 20-letniej obudowy wymagało trochę zabawy! Od jakiegoś czasu próbuję upolować jakiegoś starego Optimusa i wypełnić go współczesną technologią :) PS. Ograniczyliśmy się do USC, tam nie robili żadnych problemów ;)

[@BlueCombPL]

Czy "trochę zabawy"? W końcu to standardowa obudowa ATX wyszarpana ze strychu :) bo jak starczyło na i5-4670K, płytę główną bez możliwości OC, 8 GB pamięci, SSD i 1 TB twardziela, to na obudowę już niestety nie, a kartę graficzną musiałem pożyczyć od siostrzeńca. A potrzebowałem taniego i w miarę przyzwoitego sprzętu do CAD-a i do grania. Takie to studenckie realia :) P.S. Nie chodzi mi o "problemy", to dla mnie wysoce niecodzienny widok :) Chyba że to ja jestem zbyt konserwatywny, co ja tam wiem :D Życzę długiego i szczęśliwego wspólnego życia i radości z pociechy :)
