Video Description

In this video I'll be taking an HP ProDesk 600 G2, and turn it into a full fledged GAMING PC! Just like with the Dell Optiplex build, HP has implemented plenty of ways to try and stop you from upgrading or reusing parts, so you'd need to buy a completely new computer instead of upgrading your current one. BUT in this video I'll show you how to turn their limited little machine, and turn it into a BEAST (legally ;)) The parts I used in this video: 24-pin to 6-pin adapter: https://amzn.to/3wPIiJd Antec case: https://amzn.to/3ULhliX Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 1:27 What parts do you need? 2:37 Taking parts from the HP ProDesk 6:26 Adding parts to the motherboard 8:03 Placing parts into the case 11:49 Connecting cables through the PC 13:02 INSERTING the Graphics Card 14:15 Finishing up 15:21 Testing it out / Problems 17:16 STRESS TEST / WILL IT EXPLODE? 17:35 Watching its beauty 18:11 SIKRIT ;))
