In this video I'll be taking a Dell Optiplex 7040 with an i7 6700, and turn it into a full fledged GAMING PC!
Even though Dell has done its best to keep people from doing upgrades on their systems, and coming up with all kinds of techniques to prevent reuseability, there's always work arounds! (Which I'll show in this video ;) )
The parts I used in this video:
Front panel adapter:
amzn.to/3UlweHc
24-pin to 8-pin adapter:
amzn.to/3UJMt21
Dell Optiplex 7040 Desktop PC:
amzn.to/3Wvin3J
Antec case:
amzn.to/3ULhliX
Xilence 750W PSU:
amzn.to/3UKZTeg
Lexar 16GB DDR4 RAM:
amzn.to/3JM9Y4k
Chapters:
0:00 Introduction
1:01 What parts do you need?
2:07 Salvaging parts from the Dell Optiplex
5:51 Adding parts to the motherboard
7:07 Preparing the new case / Cable management
8:57 Placing parts into the case
10:40 Connecting cables through the PC
13:00 INSERTING the Graphics Card
13:52 Testing, testing, testing
14:32 Dell BIOS errors + exhaust fan
15:39 She boots! (dick)
16:00 Benchmarking and testing for fires
16:27 Final touches + RESULT!

No way he made this single channel ram. Dual channel ram even at the lower speed is better than single channel my guy!

I did some gaming benchmarks with this configuration and 2x8GB sticks, and have concluded that the difference isnt big enough to warrant a change. The results were 1-2% faster with 2x8GB, so you should obviously always go for dual channel if you can, but it isnt a deal breaker if you cant :)

My man this was an absolutely Banger, you managed to crack it even with all the messy oem parts from Dell. There's Only a few videos out there about doing an entire case-swap, psu-gpu upgrade, let alone a single one for optiplex's past the xxx20 series. Pay little attention to those comments of people "correcting" you, as a matter of fact you successfully completed the project and provided a full walkthrough guide while also scoring some pretty decents views for your channel, this was nothing but a massive W. Keep it up, would love to some more "Office to Gaming" builds form you :D

On Intel systems the difference between single and dual channel ram is a real thing, but not as dramatic as it is with Ryzen. If I were going the adapter route, I would have kept the case and added the new PSU, thrown in the GPU and instead of a case bought dual channel memory kit, and not bothered with the HDD, or at least shelled out for decent storage instead of an old laptop platter. As far as proprietary hardware, it sucks, but don't blame Dell for that invention, it has been going on for a very long time. I remember 286's that were the same way, it was very common for a Packard Bell motherboard to need a Packard Bell HDD, or IBM, or AST, or any of them really. In the early 2000s things got pretty good with prebuilts, for a while they mostly used standard ATX PSUs, cases and motherboards, but that didn't last long. Myself, I find used office computers to be a great source of CPUs and sometimes memory, it is fairly easy to find a 9th or 10th Gen i5-7 system on Marketplace for $75-100, I take the CPU, and maybe memory and storage (the 8th gen and up often have nvme drives), use those to build a proper gaming rig, then find the cheapest pentium or i3 to put into the office PC, and put it back on Marketplace for $120, it takes a couple of weeks, but it will sell at that price, and your gaming PC will be better off for it. Basically let somebody pay you a few bucks to upgrade from a Pentium or i3 to i7. Just my two cents. I certainly did enjoy the video though. Just because I have a certain way of doing things, doesn't make it the right way, and surely isn't the only way.
@crimsontechyt
@crimsontechyt 19 күн бұрын
Im glad you enjoyed it :) Unfortunately the Screw positions for the PSU, and the housing in general (for this case atleast) dont fit a regular ATX PSU, so an upgrade in this case wouldnt be possible (unless you're comfortable with the PSU laying loose in there xd). The case is mainly there for the extra airflow, and so the pc would sell easier (kids like flashy RGB), and so it wouldnt be an eyesore. A couple years back (with the Hasswell generations) OEMs used to be WAY less anti-upgradeability with these parts, so it was a lot easier to do what you just talked about. Times were great :D I cant speak on the past before that ofcourse, but it sucks that they returned to those practices.

My war rig isn't too far off your lovely dumpster fire. i7-6700, GTX 1050 Ti and 32 gigs of RAM. Runs like a top. An Optiplex build is a great entry level gaming rig. My advice: if anyone is considering a build like this, do know that there are plenty of capable, low power GPUs that can work with Dell's dumb PSUs. No need to buy a case. Be warned, airflow in an Optiplex isn't great but none of the hardware should be getting all that hot anyway. If anything, just open the side of the case when gaming. You'll have yourself a half-decent gaming PC that can tackle a few games while you save up to buy a "real" computer.

My budget is tight so i cant spend a lot maybe 300 max now the problem i live oman where pc parts r expensive plus rare ( if y have money then doesn't matters)so i found this , only thing that i need to do is sawp a case and maybe power supply that u did , i was looking video like this thnx bro.

It really depends on how much space the prebuilt has for the PSU, and if it has the screw holes for it to fit. This one didnt fit a full size ATX power supply, so it needed a new case.

@@crimsontechyt Probably the same as the Dell 9020. If the pins are aligned such that 1-3 are on the top, and 4-5 are on the bottom. You correctly wired the switch to 1 and 4. You also need to jumper 1 and 2. (Easy was is ti use a thin staple and wrap it around both pins. I used 3 male to female bread board wires. I cut one in half (for the 2nd pin). I needed to solder that short wire to the number 1 wire. Cleared some insulation from the wire. One drop of solder. Added insulation. And that leaves 2 male pins sticking out that can go to your standard power switch button.

Hey I just stumbled on your channel and it looks nice, but say if I wanted to just buy myself an Optiplex computer and a cheap/affordable GPU to put inside, would that work as well? I'm on like an ultra budget and I don't intend on reselling either so the look appeal doesn't really matter to me, but if I were to do that, what GPU would I be able to get away with fitting in the Optiplex 7040 without replacing or upgrading much of anything?
@crimsontechyt
@crimsontechyt 20 күн бұрын
Unfortunately the PSU in these OEM computers are too weak to handle any type of GPU (unless they're very low power ones that dont need extra PCIe power, like a 1650). I mainly switched the case to get a better psu, so it could have a better gpu :)
@FunnyMemesCentral
@FunnyMemesCentral 20 күн бұрын
@@crimsontechyt Ah alright, would I be able to swap the PSU or did Dell keep it locked in there good? The games I would intend on running would be smaller games anyways, nothing too demanding, CS2 and singleplayer story games like Fallout, so I don't imagine I would need too powerful of a GPU or anything. Would a 1650 genuinely work with it though? Apologies if I ask too much, I am just trying to learn about PC building albeit on a very limited budget.
@crimsontechyt
@crimsontechyt 20 күн бұрын
The PSU is removeable (with some sweat and tears), but you couldnt fit a normal ATX PSU in there, since the space is too small to fit one. If you can find a 1650 WITHOUT the need for extra PCIe power (most of the time these are low profile GPUs, so very small), you'd be able to play games like CS2 pretty easily :)

Using a single stick of 16GB memory is worse than 2x8 or 4x4, because you're limiting it to single channel. The cost difference is negligible, especially when buying used. The I/O shield could have been removed from the case, (as could the mounting for the Dell stock cooler - for reuse), by using a rotary cutting tool, then hot glued into the new one. An easier alternative for the shield could also be a 3D printed version, either customized (3D modeled) or cut to size (universal). Using the front panel adapter or putting a jumper on the right pins could have also solved that other F1 issue. As for repositioning standoffs, you could mark the hole locations with a crayon, nail polish, or Sharpie by placing the motherboard against the case with the standoffs removed. Drill the locations, then use a tap and die to allow for proper installation. Reinstall the standoffs, then the board. This would eliminate the possibility of shorting the board out against the case. The board could definitely fail due to flex later on. Missing out on front panel audio is not a drawback, but using a PCI Express USB 2 & 3 card would have been a plus. Also, the power supply choice is super questionable (likely Tier E on the PSU tier list), but maybe just enough to demonstrate it working in concept, not for an extended period of time. A for concept, C- or D+ for execution. At least it worked.

You went through all that trouble when you could've just snagged a decent B550 mobo and a Ryzen 5 3600 at a cheaper price than the Optiplex and had a way better system

​@@crimsontechyt Yes but the link you posted to the Amazon listing of that Optiplex is $240. If you select the parts I mentioned on PCPartPicker it comes out to around $183. I understand prices vary depending on location but even if you had to spend a little it'd be worth is as you would end up with a way more efficient system. It also has a much higher upgrade path in the long term.

But what I mean by turning a Dell work PC into a gaming PC inexpensively is something different. Namely just a new construction factor with the same power supply with more power, possibly with the ATX to dell power cable adapter and a better graphics card with an additional power connection and possibly expand the storage memory to 2x8Gib. and the gaming machine is ready. Oh and don't use the middle finger in videos, it could offend viewers as they might think you're insulting them as....

@crimsontechyt 16 күн бұрын
@centurioneyt9235 Well all it really needed was a GPU upgrade. But for that it needed a more powerful PSU. And for that it needed a new case, since the old one doesnt fit a standard ATX PSU. And because it's in a new case, it needs a new CPU cooler, since the old one didnt have a bracket. So it's all necessary, unless you just want to use the old optiplex 😃
