Slap in some win98 desktop wallpaper and screensavers to complete the deception for passersby

Imagine coming to a friends house seeing that laughing at him and then he opens it and there’s a 2080ti, i9 9900k lol

Imagine u build a sleeper and ur mum sells it in a yard sale thinking its a old pc

I remember having this case as my first PC that my parents bought in 2000 if I'm not mistaken, it came with a Pentium !!! (Yes, pentium 3 was !!! Back in those days), 64MB of RAM and a Quantum 40GB HDD, all running Windows Me, it also came with those old speakers that had like arms with velcro to tape them on the sides of the monitor, I can't remember the model.
I started my love for pcs with that case, now I'm a 27yo systems engineer and this video almost made me cry 😭❤

Thank you very much! I really enjoyed this video! 🤩

Now all you need is an old CRT monitor disguised as a 4K 144hz panel!

Is it just me or does this system look like there was way more room to improve? The video looks rushed and just seems to have a lower production quality than usual? I like Austins content, this one just didnt do it for me

Imagine ur grandpa gives u a free pc that's 30 years old and turning it into a gaming pc

[MurCurieux]

I like how the old case wasn’t even dusted out first - perfect

I'm gonna be honest this video was a bit of a let down. You kept saying it was the "Ultimate Sleeper PC" but nothing really felt "Ultimate". Sure the hardware was pretty good but there was nothing really there to make it overkill like water cooling or other such case mods that are completely unnecessary but add to the overkill aesthetic that you mentioned

[smalllballls]

You should have just gone to a random school for the computer case. Lol

I love seeing these old boxes coming back to life again, brings some sort of satisfaction I can't explain.

[brucesmith]

i don't think "sleeper" pc means, put nice stuff in a dirty ass case... clean that thing up. add proper cooling, fill the front case slots with another cd rom and some floppy drives even if they are just for looks. What you have done here is FAR from "ultimate" and more like half-assed.

>builds sleeper pc meant to look old
>puts 9th gen i7 sticker on the outside
*bruh*

[Roger-mbvm]

Imagine you find this in an abandoned house and you smash it for a video to find a I7 and a Rtx 2080 ti in there

[Smecural]

Im still poor and can't even buy the old pc without everything

[TheMadisonHang]

i7, GTX 1080, Ultra-Hardcore Specs, Windows 98

[pieceofpotato]

"cables might be a little tricky in this case" literally 85 percent of the case is filled... with air...

Like they say "never judge a book by its cover"

I finally rebuilt my main rig in my old 2001 Cooler Master ATC 200 and I love it! Everytime I reach over to turn my pc on, it brings a smile to my face to see that old retro prosumer lookin' desktop case.
