8:42 - He is so happy, and I know this kind of feeling. If you start improvising on something and it fits like made for it. 👍👍
I really was doing it for the first time. Didn't know if it was going to work at all. 😁🤷♂️ hehe

Hey first of all thank you. Do you deal with any errors on boot (having to press f1 because of intrusion sensor for example) or any other issues since you made the video? Thanks a lot
Why did you change the heatsink? Seems it could have been reused without a problem?
hi i have a hp elitedesk g2 and the adapter doesn't work any ideas how i could make it work i bought the one in your description
@@morefpsgamingftw3062 what kind of power supply are you using? I read on some of the Amazon reviews that the adapters don't work but its due to it being defective.
@@morefpsgamingftw3062 you'll have to find a diffrent adapter. I have a pro desk g1 and i had to buy 2 before i found a good one.. and make sure that your using a good power supply
man I love your genuine enthusiasm while you discover everything is working out okay. subbed.
I appreciate that! 😁
Same
Totally agree!
Absolutely agree!
This is exactly the video I need to give me instructions and inspiration I've been looking for. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! 👍😁
thank you so much! after 3 months of research, picking parts and watching video's, have i build my own pc out of a hp elitedesk 800 g1. the graphics card is on the way, so i havent installed that yet. this video gave me the motivation and inspiration to build my own pc, and im happy that i did it. it works like a charm! thanks man!
I’m looking to upgrade a hp 800g1 too how is urs going lol
@@lil_killas1212 Mine will be running in two days. I hope...lol
@@StephaanBOSS56 I ended up doing a whole diff build from scratch runs great
FINALLY I KNOW WHAT IM SUPPOSED TO USE FOR MY CPU HEATSINK, NO SCREWS
I can feel how happy you were doing this when everything fit perfectly, I'm son glad for you!
It would be great to see the follow up on how to plug the rest of the connectors from you case and also how the standard PSU works with an adapter.
yeah i'm thinking he's going to have an f1 error forever which makes this build less appealing
@@donkeykong1234 i ran with this build for about a year and tbh the F1 error is not bad, you get use to it pretty fast.
Thank you for this video. I picked up an Elitedesk 800 G1 and have been using it as a docker host for 2 years, but only being able to use 1-2 hard drives is too limiting, so I'm going to buy a larger ATX case, follow your video, and move into a larger case with more space.
Sounds good. You can use a 3rd hard drive by disconnecting the CD Rom if you don't need it.
I had 3 drives in mine just laying free in the case... never had any problems LMAO. Past tense because I upgraded to a G3 with the same thing +1 NVME drive... who cares as long as it works
I like what you did in the beginning! Got me man! I really tried it 😂
🤣
People don't make enough of tese videos. Thank you ... P.S. keep it up you lowkey made me laugh a couple times :)
I was looking for a second pc for like 400 euros, till I came accros these refurbished hp prodesks. Just bought a hp prodesk i5 4570. 8gb ram. ssd. For 125 euro. Thats like 140 dollars. The thing is fast for its price.
That's a good deal. Esp with SSD inside.
Me too! I just got a HP Elite with a i7 3770 and 16gb DDR3 ram, GT 210 and 1TB HDD for $200, I was thinking of buying a GT 1030 but thanks to this video I think I'll hold off and change the case when I can afford a new PSU and a used RX 580/GTX 1060
@@Luis444Felipe Good plan. 👍
@steven s Cool. 👍
bought hp elite 8300 with i5 3470 and 8gb ram for €89, will it work on cube case like thermaltake core v21?
Omg thank you, this is exactly what i needed. Glad i found your channel haha
Glad I could help!
Got my answer in the first 20s.. thanks, gonna go try it out now!
You bet!
Love the excitement in your voice!! 👏👏😃😃
I actually did this with my HP Elite Desk 800 GI SFF I ran into a problem with the Intel Heatsink not fitting on my board so I had to use the old heatsink, to get it to stay onto the motherboard due to it not having the support from the case anymore, I had to go to Wal-Mart and buy machine screws 1/2 inch and attached the washers to the back of the board this remedied the issue perfectly! Although it did cause quite a bit of frustration. Also had a hard time figuring out where the front connectors go onto the board! If you do this definitely take your time! I had never worked with computer parts in this way and managed to get everything working with patience and double checking everything before going ahead. Overall I am extremely pleased to have upgraded my computer in this way, it ended up being way cheaper than I exected and definitely worth trying. Thanks for the help!
Sure thing. Thank you for sharing your experience. 👍
I tried doing this with Z series desktops, but they had a proprietary heatsink mount point layout. I'm glad that some of the older enterprise level PCs (Elitedesk and Prodesk 800 G1, G2, and G3) have standard LGA heatsink mount points.
Yea, it's kind of interesting because the older 8000 series has a different orientation mobo which does not align with standard ATX case. But, newer models though. I bet HP got a better deal on parts by deciding to go with ATX standard.
@@Cobuman wwill this case swap work with a hp compaq elite 8300?
If anyone is doing this, the biggest issue is probably the cooler, if you dont want to buy a new cooler, you can buy a backplate and the original cooler should still work :)
nice! great tip!
Thanks cobuman, just what I was looking for
Awesome! Sure thing.
I'm gana do the same whit thinkcentre m82
15:14 That dirty heatsink kept tripping me off, you should've cleaned it when you took it apart, just spray the can of air at least, other than that great video.
8:59
The happiness in his voice😂
This is very helpful. I'm thankful i found your video. Good job!
Thanks!
You can get a 500GB Elitedesk 800 g1 (renewed) for $145 on Amazon. Has the i5-4590
Is it this one? amzn.to/2qpdtsg
Good deal I think.
I got one of these elitedesk 800 g1's for only $75 Canadian. There was a surplus of pc's at my dads office so they had an auction
@@realKowai Wow, nice deal.
If you manage to find an office going out of business, they'll sometimes sell them cheaper than that with 4th, 5th, or 6th gen i7's , they may even throw them away, recycle, donate, or give for free.
I got one of these for 100$
Do you know the pins for the reset switch and leds? I want to connect more than just the power switch
I managed to figure it out for the rest:
If you look at the header from above:
xx -> pin 1,2
xx -> pin 3,4 -> power switch
x -> pin 5
xx -> pin 6,7
xx -> pin 8,9
In order for the HDD LED to work, it should go in pin 7 and 9 (align the small arrow on the header). The Power led - should go in pin 6 and the power led + in pin 8. Pin 5 is not used. I'm not sure if the reset button works on this motherboard, as it does not work in my case

@@davidoosterhuis1355 You sir, are absolutely amazing. Plugged everything in exactly as you said: Booted immediately with all lights working! I cannot thank you enough
I want to now can i Add Reset Button on Atx case thank you
Ah great brother you saved my life
👍
Not only very informative but a very enjoyable video to watch. Your video encouraged me to choose the 600 G1 over some other SFF systems. A great job!
EDIT: I got a cannot beat deal on an 800 G1 and am in the process of transferring to a new case with a new PSU. A great system for basing a budget gaming system on.
What is this another sff system
It is an SFF system and I ended up getting an 800 G1 with an i5 4590 and it runs surprisingly well.
Awesome video!
I just started fixing up, upgrading and selling some OEM pc's lately, but I have been buying Lenovo's and they have power limits on the PCIe ports.
So that limits the types of GPU's I've been able to put in them.
I'm guessing the HP Elitedesk 800 doesn't have that kind of a power limit on the motherboard, so the only thing you need is a new PSU.
Thanks, In most situations people don't even change the PSU if adding a low profile card in to SFF case.
@@Cobuman Yeah I didn't do that for my first Lenovo build either. Do you think the HP motherboard will fit a mATX or should I get an ATX/mATX case to be sure?
@@tunasanwitch The HP motherboard is still a weird shape although it aligns at the top. That being said I would stick with ATX but if I had mATX laying around it would be interesting to test.
Thank you so much you helped me realy
My pleasure. 👍
Cobuman dude really help a lot by providing 3D template for io panel. Tq
I was needing this video!
Hey do I need to get a new heat sync? Cuz i want to do this and idk is it important. So if you can answer!
If you can remove the other side panel behind the motherboard, that will tell you what the stock heat sink is screwed into. If the stock one has a mounting plate that comes out, I think it could be reused until you are able to get something decent.
Hey! I'm changing my case of my hp elitedesk G1 800 sff to te case showed in the video, but I have some questions. You do have Instagram or like that for se talk for my questions?
I just transferred my HP Elitedesk 800 G1 to an old HP Pavilion case, added a gtx 1650 and I'm playing Forespoken right now. Extra things I had to do: 1.) Remove the power switch and lights from the front cover button, insert into the from cover of the Pavilion. 2.) To use my Elite desk cooling fan, I had to find some nuts that fit on the bolts in the fan too attach it to the mother board. The Elit desk mother does not have built in nuts. The fan bolts into the case. It ain't pretty but works like a champ.
Does this work with HP elitedesk 705 G3? Pls answer. I'm saving up to buy it but the seller said it's not recasable but I wanna recase it so it has fans n stuffs
can you suggest me a best CPU case for my HP 8200 elite SFF? I want to do like as you did but I have this pc and I just know that it has BTX type motherboard and the I just cant put any videocard, (i dont have lowprofile video card) New subscriber btw :)
What did you do
So...At the end of the day, Will this all work for a Hp elite 8300 sff?!!?
Sadly no... because it's a different type of motherboard. The orientation is different.
@@Cobuman 😥😪thank-you
@@Cobuman do you think because of the front power (sw) or it just won't fit?!
@@414tdm Motherboard orientation will not align with the back.
@@Cobuman oooooooooo ok. I see thanks for telling
Thank you very much for that information I had that doubt to buy a pc of those
I need help with the power switches its not working, i cant turn on, help me please.
Thanks for the video. In gonna try this transplant with my Dell Inspiron 580s sff into my Dell dimension 4600 mini tower. Would anyone know if this might work.
Sure thing. The main issue could be the back I/O hole; it may be different shape or position. Let us know how it goes.
hablo espanol solo con el chiste del principio te ganaste mi sub
muchas gracias
Well I needed that video yesterday. I just cutted the CPU cooler holder out and screwed it on the MBU. For the USB and audio error I plugged the yellow USB in and actually used the 3.0 USB and 2 hubs.
No new power supply needed and did it the same way in the video with double sided tape additionally.
Biggest problem is the length of the cables.
I was able to disassemble the original switch on compartment and use the original LEDs and switch in the aftermarket case.
G2 600 805D board with 32gb ram and 6gb GPU. 1tb ssd 256gb nvme on expci
Works fine but the mbu and cpu is not really made to be upgraded this much.
If having clearance issues with gpu blocking the front usb 3 and sata ports you can always vertical mount the gpu
Power Button configuration for computers without split leads
This is almost exactly the same as my HP prodesk 600 G2. the only difference I see is the CPU cooler and mine only has 2 slots for ram. the insides aren't the same but the mobo are the same.
the main issue I had with my case transplant was the Power Button. HP, of course, had to make theirs proprietary and block pin 6 rather than pin 1 like normal PCs. My case doesn't have the Power supply leads split so I had to do some wacky wiring. Using your guide and this h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/pin-assignment-for-Power-On-off-Switch-led-Cable-710821-001/td-p/7458720
I basically put in the power button 90 degrees to what it should be. Normal cases have pins 8 and 6 being the power switch to I spanned those across what you have shown. HPs power switch is pins 7 and 8 so making putting pin 8 on the wire where pin 7 is on the motherboard and putting pin 6 on the wire to where pin 8 is on the mobo it works fine. Power light doesn't work but who cares lol.
For the cooler I just used the stock cooler and some nuts and bolts to hold it in.
Thanks
Here is a diagram

I appreciate your write up. This comment will be pinned. Please Change/add first sentence to say something like "pin out configuration" or "power connector fix". This will help a lot of people that have issues. Thank you.
Also good if you want a low power pc in a rack mount case. I think you could have used nuts for the old heatsink as well.
Probably. Good tips!
using nuts to attach id probably get some plastic washers between those nuts and the mobo
awesome video. Congratulations
Thank you!
Hi mr Cobuman if ably re cases my pc and it went well, thanks for your guide.
very nice!
My PC's exhaust fan is not spinning even after connecting to motherboard?
I was gifted a EliteDesk 800 g2 by a friend and I plan to use it for drawing digital art, I hope I can follow this guide and make it all come together, also hope I can find the right case in pink.
It should work. Just take your time doing it.
How did it go?
I had many trouble removing the error post of usb 1 and 2 and audio not connected.
So many janky modding of cables
@@paulssnfuture2752 it’s still in its original case I failed, still works wonderfully though.
Does this work with the Hp compaq 8200 elite sff?
Hey . I just got amazed by this video . I have a HP PC but that's model is different and if I want to do this , my GPU gonna stick to the top of the case so I can't . I hope your CZcams channel grow larger 👍
Fantastic Video. Was enjoyable and helped at the same time.
i like the way of setting the small tower inside the big one its easier
I'm pretty sure im in love with these videos
Other method is to salvage cpu and the ram and try find cheap ATX replacement parts for the rest.
I kept wanting you to say; " Get to the chopper, NOW!! " And then after everything worked well like it did, I wanted you to say: " I made it to the chopper, but I dont know how!! " That would have been rich ya think?
I wanted to do this with an Elitedesk 800 G5 SFF, but that has the front usb ports and powerbutton directly on the motherboard, instead of with wires, so it was basically only made for that case, which is a shame, but I got it really cheap, will sell it with profit, learned a lesson and will buy some other motherboard and cpu :)
you got a like as soon as you put one PC inside the other!!
haha. 🤣
I like it how he did not work out, that the "full size video card" will not fit because of the USB header cable. But still, great video.
This is what I was wondering about. Short cards only then.
I have 8300 SFF, i5 3570, 8 ram , ssd, 240w psu. I added all these components on wooden plate - to add there GTX 1650 (not low profile) which is powered through pciex16. It takes 75w (like GTX 1050 LP) so I hope that PSU 230w is enough for this setup. I'm currently working on thermal things, already isolated PSU from other components. This wooden board will be mounted under main desk board, so compleyely invisible, cold air intake from front side and hot exhaust from back side. So I hope that 240W PSU will hold i5 + GTX 1650 with 75W consumption
It should be fine. I have a couple of other videos in which I recommended using low profile version of GPU and nobody reported any issues with stock PSU.
@@Cobuman Thanks for info! I added there Gigabyte GTX 1650 mini OC 4GB and no problem yet !
@@radovanrakovicky2655 Nice!
@@Cobuman Only one thing here - based on coolermaster psu calculator my i5 3570 + 2x4GB DDR3 + Samsung SSD + GTX1650 75W it calculated 236 watt. I have also 500GB Seagate Baracuda 7200rpm but I'm not sure if this 240W HP PSU can hadle it too...so I have to make some experiments later & will inform ;-) I think that noone did some test on PSU consumption limit for HPs and Dells small form factors with specific HP 240W PSUs during max CPU+GPU load.
@@radovanrakovicky2655 I'd be interested to know what the total power consumption is on full load. I use *hwinfo64* when overclocking CPU which shows the wattage as well. Although, the power is measured at software level which may not be 100% accurate. The other option is using one of those tools that measure power at wall socket. Now that I think about it I need to buy one of those tools.
thanks
My pleasure.
this is exactly the video i was looking for omg thank you so much your the best you earned my like and sub today
I have the small case but I'm gonna change in future when I get a bigger graphics card
Plastic works for rhe IO backplate😊
Nice!
Yes, you can put that big of a GPU, but have fun having to press a button everytime you boot to bypass the "front usb not connected" message.
The only time I would see that is if I'm rebooting the computer for windows updates which is maybe once every 2 months... I have no reason to completely shutdown the computer, ever... My computer goes to sleep automatically after not being used; then it wakes up after I touch the keyboard or mouse.
Do you Need any special screwdiver to do this
No, just the ones used in the video.
Did the motherboard accept the newer GPU without any problems?
Yes, here is a video of me just adding an external GPU: czcams.com/video/tj2ws0mTm6E/video.html
But yes, any GPU should work when used in larger PC case. Otherwise you can install a low profile card that fits inside the original sff case. Like this: amzn.to/3f05sxA
So can I pull the whole thing out and hook it up with a 600w psu and an RX 580 8gb?
thank you for your video is really helpful
Sure thing.
I need this, I need this thank you so much
Power connector is a 4pin... the new poer supply i bought has a 8pin. Have to buy an adaptor. 8pin female to 4 pin male adaptor (Your links product wasnt available.) Also had to get a molex to 3 pin adaptor for the fans in the case. Harddrives connect to the outside/side-back of the case. The heatsink/fan i ordered (your link) they sent me the wrong one or it wasnt right for my hp. So i used the original but ripped the aluminum screwholes off of the old case.(wasnt difficult) waiting for new power adaptor to show up to.orrow.
Ive never done this before. I WISH I TOOK PICTURES OF THE UNTOUCHED MOTHERBOARD BEFORE I STARTED. So i could see the original configuration.
life saver or should i say... money saver
yea buddy!😁 I'm glad to help.
Holly crap I love you! U are a life saver I was about to buy a new motherboard because I thought I could not connect the front control panel. I love you have a amazing day man
Thanks, take care. 😁
cobuman I do have a question tho, if I where to buy the adapter what would it change like specs I mean. Is it a worse connection?
That motherboard looks the same size as the one in the broken Prodesk 600 g2 micro tower I have. I could just make life easy and put one of these in there. The IO part on the back looks identical and the power suply has the exact same connectors. Also this one has a better chipset, right?
It might be the same chipset but different CPU
If i have a Intel i7 2600k it would be compatible with the mother board ?
Not sure. Here is my video on how to find out: czcams.com/video/stcuFDSUTwE/video.html
Hello, I plan to buy the HP 800 G1 Tower soon, and I want to move everything to a new case, I'm not sure if the motherboard is of standard dimensions, more precisely if the screw layout is the same as on a regular micro atx board (micro atx I think), so my the question is, can I transfer all my components (power supply and motherboard) to MS Cyclops V. I'm worried about the layout of the screws on that motherboard. Thanks
Nice one man! Thank you so much!! Subbed. ❤
Thanks for the sub!
Done this BUT you get a message on bootup about front usb 3 is not connected as it's slightly different to normal.usn 3 headers on own cases. Also the rear case fan, if not connected the. You get a message about that also. I used a prodesk 490 mini tower pc.
Love your vids they have made me closer to my dream of owning a pc
😁
cobuman yay
cobuman is the hp 8300 a good budget gaming pc with other parts
@@LBAK1021 It's still okay for some gaming... but if possible get a newer PC because that one is about 10 years old now.

Good day good sir! Do you have a follow up video after this? I would love to know and learn how to further install the drives and where to put those pins. Thanks!
As far as I got on pins is connecting the one in the video towards the end. No other videos.
@@Cobuman well thanks for this video, I learned so much. I also got the same model and I was planning to upgrade bit by bit. thank you, sir!
@@carlnobleza7671 My pleasure! :)
I just got the G3 version, totally different motherboard. The front USB, power switch, everything is part of the motherboard so it's too wide to fit in other PC cases.
Classic HP motherboard design - you cannot use a large dual slot GPU because they put the SATA ports and the USB3 header connector where the GPU takes the space.
14:20 you are a savior!!! figured out led hdd led are the ones past the reserved and empty pins, but maybe no reset button and pwr leds?

You're welcome!
but how to put another power supply? becasue dont match with this motherboard? and other question, what is the max cpu upgrade? because 1151 socket can put so many processors, but what is the max processor can match with this? and how to convert another power supply to this motherboard? Thanks!!!
Here is the power supply adapter: amzn.to/3l12qgF
Max CPU is i7-6700
Cobuman, is the HP EliteDesk G1 800 SFF's motherboard size an Micro-ATX?
I don't think it's classified as that because it has a kind of in between shape. At some point I did side by side compared to standard atx size.
@@Cobuman I see so most likely its still a standard ATX then
@@jinotokieda yeah, close to it.
I have a tower elitedesk. It come with a random standard CPU cooler size and mounting holes. Which makes it complicated to swap. I'm not sure if I could use a nut four nuts to hold the CPU cooler in place?
Probably can. Just be super careful when tightening them and make sure they don't touch any circuits from the back. So, use very small nuts.
Thank you
How to upgrade the power supply? what connector i can use for it? 24 pin? 8 pìn? how i can do it? please i need your help! Thanks!
I'm assuming you have this same PC and for that you can use any ATX PSU with this adapter: amzn.to/2QGm17C
Hi, 1st all, thank you for your videos. I'm persueing IT technician Dept, so your videos make me interest more in IT. Then I have a HP 8100 elite sff, however i want to transfer all the part to a new bigger case. I can't find any cases which fit with my HP. Any advices are valuable to me right now. Thank you for your great videos and lessons.
I tried this but it doesn't work with any newly fabricated ones the motherboard is different and they removed the fan
Thanks for letting me know. Which model of PC did you try with?
Thanks for responding it's the same one but i bought it at a store that sold them in large quantities and they said that they make them like that they switched the cooling system and made so you cant fit a full sized graphics card if i could send a picture i would and the motherboard is smaller sorry if i caused any trouble
This ll not working with G3 (elitedesk 800 gr sff) , since all front panel stuffs are integrated on to the motherboard!
Hey i have got a question I'd love for you to answer but what kind of board is it and how did you connect it to the case
all I know is that it's from an HP G2.
Please help me! where should the power button and the front panel and reset button be inserted? The place you have just don't know the order! Thank you for the help!
Towards the end of video I show where to plug in. You can also use the process of elimination and test which one works. Someone in comments provided the pin out diagram as well.
@@Cobuman yes i found it! Thank you the help!

Isn't the mounting brackets for the cpu fan non standard? I can't fit that Intel cooler on here. Am I missing something?
I have the same computer, and i followed this video to upgrade to a new case. I followed the video exactly and when i switch on the power supply the little green light on the motherboard blinks, so i know it works, but when i press the power switch on the case it doesnt boot up. Did i plug the switch into the motheboard wrong? Where am i supposed to plug it in?

Hey! I have a HP EliteDesk G1 800 and I want to change to a larger case.
Works in the corsair case that you showed?
Has any cheap power supple? Like 20$?
I don't recommend those cheap PSU because they don't last long. In a year it may go bad. Better of paying a bit more and it will last forever. EVGA is good: amzn.to/2VSFgye
Hallo Can i Add RESET BUTTON thanks.
Probably, I'm not sure which jumper it goes to. You can experiment to find out.
