In this video, I take a $100 Lenovo ThinkCentre M920q and turn it into the most upgradeable mini PC in the world. From Pentium to i7-9700, from 8 GB RAM to 32 GB, and from no GPU to a full-size RTX 4060 — all packed into a tiny footprint. We test undervolting, liquid metal, delidding the CPU, cooling mods, riser cables, and even dual power supplies — all to push this SFF PC to the absolute limit. Is it practical? Not really. Is it fun and insane? Definitely. Specs after upgrade: • Intel Core i5-8500/i7-9700 • 32GB DDR4 • RTX 4060 with undervolt • Flex ATX 500W PSU • Copper VRM heatsinks • Liquid metal cooling ⚡ Total build cost: $545 💥 Final volume: ~2.7 liters 💬 Comment which mini PC you'd like me to upgrade next! 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next insane project!
