Time to look through a mystery box of PC parts I was given! What will I find? I also make the first use of a video microscope on my channel, overclock an old IBM motherboard and more! I have a follow-up overclocking video which will come out on the second channel to see how far I can push the overclocking on the old Type-1 motherboard.
