Better yet, I'm giving away some of these kits in this video. This is NOT a paid review and the product was not provided to me. As always, all my opinions of the product are my own.

    Sorry for all the banging, someone was moving crap around in the room right above me. Anyways, drop a comment and tell me what case you'd like to see me swap and Opti into.
  • @HarbinRepairs
    Thanks for the shoutout and review, we hope our adapters helped you out and your followers with their awesome builds!
  • I’m doing a super budget build right now and all of your videos, especially your cpu and gpu benchmarking one really sealed the deal for starting my project! Thank you man!
  • great video for those who want to swap cases.. i have used the power switch adapter for a few optiplex gen 3 and 4 and it really does work.. the game bench always puts on.. looking forward to watching more of ur content
  • @fatneek5847
    This is the best channel for converting a dell office pc to a gaming pc, literally anyone could do it with your guides. Not only do you cover how to put in a gpu, but what one to get, how to buy it used AND how to add airflow to the case. Also, this product looks like a great idea, kinda wonder why these weren't made before!
  • @scorpionsedge
    Now to convince my son he needs a new case for his Opti 9020...
  • @PulpVision
    I got mine last week and it's very easy to install. Works perfect for my opti 7020!
  • @Shmoozo55
    VERY cool products. Thank you for pointing these out for us.
  • @skootles1
    Thanks for this info! Your Opti review and Mods are the reason I own a 9020.
  • Dude, I just subscribed. This gave me confidence where none resided. You’re seriously killin it💪🏿👏🏿🙌🏿‼️
  • @wnchatman
    THANK YOU! THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED!!!
  • I just picked one up for a 9010. Excited to get a case swap going! This really makes it so much easier!
  • @RoachDoggJR4200
    This is cool to see, not gonna lie though. The first thing in mind was an adapter to do this the other way around. Newer custom built pcs in an old optiplex case with front panel functionality. Maybe that's just my admiration for old pc cases showing. Awesome video as usual though. You're gonna help a lot of people bringing these to light.
  • @AdrianGtz
    Thanks so much man! I have everything for a 7010 swap already, was just looking for how to do the power switch connectors but I’ll order these here in a bit!
  • @aryan.a1z511
    i subscribed bc ur content is very detailed and organized. ur so underrated
  • Awesome video, I'm definitely buying for my 9020 to put in a be quiet pure base 500d. I never even thought of this being a problem
  • @mrcfries
    I used one of the 3020 kits about a month ago, super easy to use. Probably gonna order the 7010 kit soon too
  • I just completed a case swap for my 9020 into a thermaltake case and have had continuous issues trying to get the power button to work, not to mention the front panel I had to gaff into the optical drive cage. I'm very excited to try this out!
