After getting hit in the face by a car door resulting in a giant cut on my face and a separate hospital visit (thought I was having an Appendicitis Attack), the video is finally finished! Sorry for the delay everyone. Didn't foresee all that to happening to me all at once!
Shoutouts to AshenEclipse for the OptiFlex name idea ;D
Hope you all enjoy the video!
Oh man sorry to hear what happened Kenneth. Hope you have a full recovery. Take care of yourself and have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.
Accidents happen. I'm all good though! Almost at 100% again. Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it very much! Not sure if you're Canadian yourself. But, have a good Thanksgiving too!
Glad you liked the video and my channel! Thanks for stopping on by from the super-cut of The Verge PC build video. It's all good! Like I said, accidents happen. Thanks for subscribing as well. I appreciate it very much!
Keep up the work man pc are getting more popular by the day.
Wiltshire Tutorials on this build would a Low profile GTX 1660 would fit? Cause I find GTX 1070 Ti is much more expensive then the GTX 1660?
Bruh "Optiflex"? This man's a genius 😂
I'll be honest, I didn't come up with that name. It was a user by the name of
AshenEclipse that came up with name. I just really liked the name!
I saw it on reddit, and man you sure are honest
Honesty is a good trait to have and will take you far. No one likes a liar
I appreciate that you have specified that "Intel i7 6700 CPU (Spectre & Meltdown Patches Disabled)".
No problem! Gotta make sure to disclose that so people don't get the wrong idea about performance! Thanks for watching!
This! why no one other does ffs
Love to see all the benchmark results between HT on and off anyways, that sounds fun!
That would've been an interesting comparison! I should've included it... Didn't want to make the video any longer than it needed to be though! Thanks for watching!
hey man, i saw compilation of your reaction on "The Build" and that got me here, you make great videos and i saw you don't post a lot but what you do is great, Dont give up, cheers.
Thanks for dropping on by. I really appreciate you taking the time to do so. Glad to hear you like my content. I have plans on posting more in the future. I'm rather slow with video making due to a lack of recording space most of the time. I don't plan on giving up on CZcams.
I love the fact that you have 32k subs, and the production looks like that it is from a 300k to 500k sub channels. Also, you actually reply to the comments which is good. You interact with the subscribers. Keep it up. I'm a Fan now.😊
I appreciate the kind feedback. It helps me figure out what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. I read most of my comments that I get! I try to respond to all of them, if I can. Thanks for watching!
@@WiltshireTutorials can I ask something? I have a q8400 system until now. It has 2gb ram, and no graphics card. But the board has some room for upgrades, it supports 8gb theoretically (if the 2x 4gb Ddr3 rams are compatible) it was an asrock g41m-VS3. I wonder what would I need to buy? I want to add a graphics card. I'm aiming to use gtx 560ti-660ti and 8gbs of ram. (Don't have enough money to buy newer systems). Although 1155 systems are the cheapest way to go, my budget was not really enough. Do my upgrades can help my system run GTA V at least 30-40 fps even in normal settings on an online gameplay? And also at least smooth editing experience? I've been editing some vids over that potato pc for years, i use Adobe premiere pro 2016 it was really sluggish but I tried to use it many times. Even though the rendering times were absolutely high. For like, 2 hours rendering time for a 5 mins video.
Q8400 can still do some work today. I'd suggest giving it a good 3Ghz or above overclock. Giving the PC 8GB will really help it as well. Having Dual Channel memory will give the CPU a slight performance boost as well. A 560ti or 660ti won't get you far, unfortunately. I suggest trying to find a good used RX 470 or an RX 480. If you want NVIDIA, then maybe a GTX 960
Dam nice 1070 putting in work I had similar results but your card is better than my 970Gtx overall the build is butter lol 👌💯
Glad you like the build! I re-thermal pasted the 1070Ti before putting in the Optiplex. So, it's should be well under control for thermals. Gave me a little headroom for overclocking because of the better thermals.
Optiflex gang 💪🏻
Hell ya!
great video. list of parts (including description of patches disabled) was nice to see. the long list of numbers on afterburner layout was nice to see too.
Glad you liked the video! I get annoyed when other's don't provide useful information in their descriptions! So, I always add as much info as I can!
This is almost my build
Mb: MSI h270 gaming 3
CPU: i7 6700
Ram: 16gb vengeance 3200
Gpu: gigabyte GTX 1070ti
Psu:800w gold series
M.2 500gb
SSD 500gb
2tb HDD
And the thing rips anything I throw at it
That's a nice rig you got!
My friend wants a gaming pc soon. He wants to get 144fps constantly, he also wants to spend less than $500. Should he make an optiplex build? And if so, what kind?
I need to know a little more about what your friend wants to play and what resolutions.
Wiltshire Tutorials he’s going to be playing rainbow six siege, call of duty, Minecraft, and the division
It will be difficult to make 144FPS happen for those games with that budget. I would shoot for 120FPS @ 1080p. At 1080p you're more CPU bound than GPU. So invest in the fastest CPU you can get your hands on. I wouldn't suggest an Optiplex due to all processors being locked in them. Meaning no overclocking for the CPU. You're going to need to overclock the CPU to make that 120FPS happen as well.
Wiltshire Tutorials What do you recommend buying? He found a deal on Craigslist for a Ryzen 7 2700X and a 1060 3gb and 16gb of ram for $450. Should he get that or build something else?
WillThomas an rx 570 is better then a 1060 3gb version and you can get them for around $60-$110
Mods look so sick!
Glad to hear you like the mod! Thanks for watching!
@@WiltshireTutorials thinking about doing the same with my OptiPlex 9010 SFF
Wow, I didn't expect it to be this good, I'm genuinely surprised! Both Witcher and Tomb Raider's performance was very solid. I'm not too deeply knowledgeable in benchmarking either, but you ran all the standard tests, so imo a job well done. Good thing you caught the hyperthreading issue, I thought something like that would happen. Pre-built PC manufacturers, Dell in particular, love screwing with stuff like that in their systems.
Also, get well soon, hope the door didn't leave too big of a scar. I was also hospitalized for the first time like a month ago, had a very high fever due to intestinal flu, got an IV drip and everything lol. I'm completely fine now, just on a strict diet haha.
Either way, a solid and entertaining video as usual, now to wrap up the OptiFlex saga.
I was rather surprised on how well it performed as well! I was so angry at the start of the video when I said "round 2". All of that benchmarking for nothing lol.
Well, if you didn't see the scar in the video you just watched, then I think we're good! I filmed part of the video after the door incident. Sounds like you had it way worse than I did!
OptiFlex will be finished completely next video.
@@WiltshireTutorials Oh, I went down to the comments after I watched and seen your comment, then skimmed through the video again and didn't notice. In any case, as long as it isn't noticeable, you're good, glad it healed so well. Can't wait for the next vid :)
makes me want to build one and it is nice and compact as well
If you do build one, I'd love to see what you come up with.
Plzz plzz plzz 😭😭😭..
I have the same device and I bought the same Power Supply and I do not know how to install the wires in the motherboard because they are different please explain to us how to install these wires in this motherboard
I made a 24-pin to 8-pin adapter cable. You can easily buy one on Amazon though. I just had extra parts laying around.
AMX007 this comment is 4 months ago Did you fix it?
Holy shit, now i wish u are here in Malaysia. I could hire you to mod all the bundant of Dell Optiplex here that we got. Kudos man!!
Glad you liked the Optiplex. If I were to mod them, it would take away the specialness of this mod. Which is why I tend not to recreate or sell my modding work.
@@WiltshireTutorials damn, that is real special, kenneth. Love the work anw! Just a question tho, do u do/modify viewers pc, kenneth? Like bitwit?
I have done a few friend's PCs. I haven't done anything in terms of viewers yet. Maybe in the future!
Good job men
I have a same computer but my is dell optiplex 3050
Planing to follow your idea but i also has a dell optiplex 990
Which one of this 2 pc will be better to work for basic games like emulators?
👍
Thanks! The 3050 will be just fine for doing the same mod as I did. The Optiplex 990 is a little older than the 3050. If you want the best gaming experience possible, then focus on your 3050.
Wiltshire Tutorials
Thanks man
Keep dooing amazing work 👍
No problem! Glad you like the videos! Thanks for watching
The Wraith t-pose is due to a bug in the game, it happened to me with my non overclocked rx 580
Interesting lol. Game still crashed though. So, I dialed the overclock back by 2Mhz to make things stable.
You should try a case swap I have never seen anyone do a case swap on this optiplex and it would allow for better thermals and more room for better parts
I don't think the motherboard standoff cutouts on the Dell motherboard fit standard ATX chassis
THANKS BODY, I BUY THE OPTIPLEX 5040, I HOPE, BE THE SAME PROCESS...muchas gracias amigo!!...
You're welcome. Should be the exact same process. The inside is nearly identical. Thanks for watching
How much did it cost to build
Found the PC in garbage. Bought an i7 6700 for $265CAD, the 1070Ti for $410CAD, 8GB of DDR3L RAM for $40CAD and the SFX PSU on sale for $110.
$265 + $410 + $40 + $110 = $825 CAD ($618.27USD)
That's 🔥 Optiplex to "OPTIPFLEX" and I Subscribe
Glad you like OptiFlex! There's always more OptiFlex too! There are many more videos about OptiFlex on my channel! Thanks for subscribing and watching
Beast of a machine 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It be flexin' on those games!
Please do mod on your dell desktop gtx 1080 ti FE or Zotac gtx 1080ti blower or same size with those gpu. i wonder if it possible to fit or not. Thank you
A Zotac GTX 1080 Ti Mini would actually fit and work quite well!
This pc yeets so much
You mean it YA YEETS so much!
Use intel extreme tuner to software overclock on oem's!
Hmmm... I'll have to investigate that! Thanks for the suggestion!
But yet you included claptrap dabbing
Got it free with Borderlands 3. So, why not have it in the video? 🤷♂️
Amazing build wish i had this
Thank you. Glad you like the build! Thanks for watching
@Wiltshire Tutorials your welcome keep up the great videos. I wish i had a gaming pc its hard to save up for one 🙃. But looking to see more great vids.
Glad to hear you like my videos! Yes, saving up for a new PC build can be hard. I remember I saved for about a year and half straight for my 1st PC build when I was about 15. I slowly acquired parts over time. My final part was RAM, which my parents generously gave me for Christmas one year.
ha. we are likeminded in the whole fortnight thing.
Glad to see others who aren't a fan of it.
would anybody have a 24 to 8 pin adapter that they can send me i need 1
Just buy one or make one. It's $12 to buy one. I made my own for this video.
Did you need to buy a proprietary cable to connect the psu to the CPU?
You will need one. I made my own, but they can be purchased from Amazon
Man, i just picked up an dell optiplex 3050, and i was thinking to upgrade that, i glad i met this video lol. Anyways. My question, at today’s date, what’s the CPU and GPU would you recommend cause I’m starting now. It is currently running i5-7500
Glad I could be of some help lol. The i5-7500 is a pretty good CPU for gaming already. If you wanted to get the most out of the 3050, you could upgrade to an i7, if you find one for a decent price. I personally would take the money and put it into a decent GPU. You could take a look at the GTX 1650 for a good starting point.
Wiltshire Tutorials thanks mate appreciated, also upto which gen i7 processors it can go? Any idea?
No problem. The max that motherboard could handle is an i7-7700 (non-K). Which means the 7th gen Core CPUs
Thanks alot, also quick question, is there psu alternatives because I’m running in a budget, can you name some psu that will fit into that, and also how did you manage to get psu separated
No problem. Sorry for the late response! Your comment got buried in the mountain of other comments I've got. Unfortunately, SFX PSUs are rather pricey, due to the small footprint. The cheapest SFX PSUs around, that I would trust, is the FSP Pro 450W SFX.
What's this spectre thing? I have an i5 6600k and want to know what does it do and will it boost my performance
Spectre and Meltdown are 2 major security vulnerabilities discovered in Intel CPUs. To fix those security risks, Intel had to gimp Hyperthreading a little bit. Thus leading to some performance losses. By disabling the patches (this is what Inspectre was used for), you get back the lost performance, but open yourself to potential attack.
Do you recommend modding Optiflex 9020 SFF with i7-4790? A friend is selling for $100
Not sure you will have enough room for mods in an SFF case. $100 is a good deal for that CPU alone. It's worth more than that. Problem with SFF cases is finding a powerful GPU to fit in it.
@@WiltshireTutorials Can I perhaps place the internals in an ATX case? Probably changing the PSU as well.
Possibly. Not sure what the form factor or dimensions of that specific Optiplex are. I'd suggest Googling 'Optiplex 9020 motherboard transfer'
it is possible to put a rtx2060 in dell optiplex 7050?
Physically, yes you can, if you use the RTX 2060 Mini version. However, you will need to get a better power supply.
Dude I thought you were bald. Never seen a vid without the hat👍😎
That's fair 😂 My hair has probably gotten thinner over the years. But, what are you gonna do! I used to play baseball a lot. So, I have a collection of baseball hats that I like to wear often.
Wiltshire Tutorials my hair has gotten more afraid of my face as the years have gone on😂 I was glad to see a new vid from you pop up on my subs page. Keep up the good work man
Excellent video my guy, solid job with the benchmarking. Also glad you liked the name I came up with for the Optiplex, lol.
It was definitely Optiflexing in Doom, that's for sure. :D
Thanks man! I appreciate the feedback. Of course, I have to give you full credit for the OptiFlex name! It was genius and I loved the name!
@@WiltshireTutorials Many thanks for the patronage man. Looking forward to what you come up with for your next video. :D
Do you even live in Wiltshire, UK
Good question. The answer is no. Wiltshire just happens to be my middle name!
maybe just try a small clip of you simply PLAYING some games you like. I don't really know what the scores for the benchmark programs mean in the real world. I'd rather just see a pc that can play the games I like for as cheap as possible.
Thanks for the feedback, Matt! Some people are curious about synthetic benchmarks (Cinebench and Firestrike). I did include games I like playing, with the exception of Fortnite. I included it because there will be some people asking how it performs in Fortnite.
Hey i know this sounds stupid, But What exactly does Upgrading your CPU make faster? Say i jumped from an i5 to an i7, What would get faster? The Web Browsing? How many applications i can run at one time? Video Game Frames?
Not a stupid question at all! No shame in asking questions to learn more about something! Assuming you're using/talking about latest Intel CPUs, by upgrading from an i5 to an i7 you'll gain a few things. The first is that the current i7 CPUs come with hyperthreading. The i5 CPUs lack hyperthreading. Linus and his crew have an excellent video on what hyperthreading is, if you aren't familiar with what it is. Here's the link to his video: czcams.com/video/wnS50lJicXc/video.html The second advantage of going from an i5 to an i7 is a higher CPU frequency. With the CPU running at a faster speed, you'll see better performance in gaming, browsing, rendering, etc. Pretty much better performance all around. The i7 will also be able to overclock to a higher frequency than the i5, if you're into overclocking. Lastly, the i7 (9700K) comes with an additional 2 cores and 2 threads, compared to the i5 (9600K). Meaning, the CPU is able to process more information at a time. This also means that the CPU can handle more applications at a time.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions!
Wiltshire Tutorials Thanks for going in depth brother 🤝. Makes more sense now
Wiltshire Tutorials also I have a i5-3470 wish is a dell optiplex 7010 and 1155 socket , for more FPS what’s the best i7 Should i upgrade to ?
Your upgrade path would be an i7 3770. Since you are using a Dell Optiplex 7010, it does not allow the ability to overclock the 'K' variant of the i7 3770. The 'K' variants are unlocked CPU which allow you to adjust the CPU frequency to your liking. The non-K versions of CPUs are cheaper. Therefore, you will have to go with a 'locked' CPU, a.k.a i7 3770. That is the best CPU for the LGA 1155 socket.
Quick question for you; what GPU are you using in your Dell Optiplex 7010?
@@WiltshireTutorials GTX 1060 3GB SC EVGA. I heard the "SC" Stands for Superclocked but not sure what that means... I also have 12 GB of RAM
Apex wooohoooo
Love me some Apex!
If you updated the bios could dell not have disabled ht by default for the new zombie load vulnerability, it's kind of amazing how many of these issues are surfacing
They could! I haven't updated the BIOS on the motherboard at all. I imagine enabling HyperThreading would disable the patches if they did block it. Hard to say really. The amount of issues bubbling to the surface for Intel is shocking.
How much is this build total?
Hard to say because I found this Optiplex 3040 in the garbage. I did buy the PSU, GPU, CPU Cooler and an additional stick of RAM.
If I calculate all of that, it totals to $610 CAD or $464 USD
Wiltshire Tutorials god bless you sir🙏🏻😂
Wiltshire Tutorials how about with the mods In your other video?
Which video are you referring to? Are you talking about OptiFlex or with my main rig (Corsair 800D)
Wiltshire Tutorials optiflex
I wonder if its possible to mess around with the processor boost states on intel like you can with Zenstates on linux with ryzen.
Intel isn't that nice. That's what BCLK was for. But, Intel blocked it with BIOS updates after they caught wind that people were boosting the frequency on their locked processors.
So piss my dell optiplex is doa now lol so mad
*cough* czcams.com/video/hzjZHvdvo4Q/video.html *cough* 😉
Just saying if u put fortnite in ur Thumnail u will get more views
I'm not a sellout.
First ?
I suppose you are!
