This just came through the door and as per @Mussels post, it's apparently running 'very slow'. Yuk, I'll need an HEV suit for this one.

That's a solid system. Show it some love make it shine!

Splinterdog · Dec 28, 2021

Most of my customers don't open the PC case to clean inside. It just doesn't occur to them, so it's work for me which I don't mind of course $$$$$
A bit tidier now and a noticeable drop in temp

Not exactly PC hardware... (also blurry pics)

It's supposed to still work, but I feel it needs a pretty deep clean before I try it. Big, complicated battery charger. 24V 100A in total. It's been used as a battery charger in a trailer full of measuring equipment and a diesel generator (with a leaky exhaust) so lots of smoke and soot. There are two identical PSUs actually, 24V in parallel.

The idea is to use it as a power supply for a 800W motor, for grinding stones.

Oh. The second (well the one in the back anyway) PSU:

This is the other PSU:

We'll see how it works out.

It's a thermistor btw.

Most Consumer are stupid as hell, they even dont know about anthing about PC.
They only use them but know nothing about them.

A Friend of me working on the Electronic Waste Center,
People bring them PCs with an I7 9700 and say the pc is dead, hell no only the Sys SSD / HDD was at the end.

He think his own, and sell the 9700 on marketplaces for 150€, and get 140€ net win.
While the stupid consumer buy anoter PC for 1K Euro.

It really isn't a person being "stupid" @seth1911 as much as it is the person is ignorant. They just have never dealt with the inner workings or understanding computers.

Much like people that doesn't know how to put together an automotive engine together, or how to build a wall in a house. They are not "stupid" as much as being ignorant of how to do

something.

I'm not stupid because I can't do heart surgery, however I'm sure as hell ignorant on how it's done.

@seth1911 may have used the word 'stupid' because I'm hazarding a guess that English isn't his native language and this happens a lot where I live.
And I agree, most of my customers NEVER open up their PC cases for a number of reasons, the main one being that they think they'll break something. That's where we come in...

If somebody does not go to a person like you though, but instead goes straight to the recycle centre, I start to wonder though whether they are a bit more than "ignorant".

I see plenty of americans and other english speaking people claiming people who don't know the inner workings of computers are being stupid.
