Just got my Noctua 12S Chromax in the mail. Installed it and now there is a fat black spot behind my PCs window, lol, like a black hole. Sure is quiet and it oozes quality throughout though.View attachment 147937View attachment 147938
The silicone dampers on the fan corners could of used a bit of cleaning. Is that from the cardboard? Irregardless the heatsink looks much better in black, and the fan as well.

I see you changed your system specs. Is there a noticeable difference from the 2700X? Can you feel a difference just from interacting with Windows 10 in general usage? I did coming from a 2600X to the 3600.
I wish I had had the 2700X but nope just the shitty 2700 and yeah it's a big difference way more responsive too

I just got this for like $90.
I dont even know if old X370 is worth that much but hell. It will perform in my SFF so much better than that Biostar X470gtn I got before!
My Metalfish S3 case somehow reached Japan, and will be delivered tomorrow!

Whatever You have about pc parts @phill...
I might have gotten some of it :D :D :D

Got this yesterday, no CPU yet so not sure if it works. Had a number of pins crushed but I managed to get them mostly straight and there are some dings and scrapes.
Nothing shorted out at the very least, does the typical on/off power cycling without a cpu.

I purchased this bundle on a hardware site used for a small Windows XP 32bit Project I am thinking building into a Fractal Design Core 500 that's better size then a SFF OEM so I can fit a more silent graphics card to the system then a small LP ITX card.

The specs:
CPU: Intel Core i3-4130 (Listed by the seller)
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9i
Board: Asus P9D-I Server & Workstation ITX
RAM: Apacer 2x2GB ECC PC3-8500 CL7 (Board works with ECC and was included in the price).

IMG_6365-1.jpg

I only paid £29.50 / 34.37 USD for it shipped.

I am planing to use maybe some other ram not sure seller said he had problems with non-ECC ram even that should be supported by the i3-4130 even on a C222 chipset.

Things for the project I got:
Audio: Asus ThunderFX USB (Bundled exclusively with Asus ROG Maximus V Formula/ThunderFX with Windows XP Driver)
Case: Fractal Design Core 500 (Purchased a couple of years ago if not more)
SSD: KingFast F6Pro 240GB (Not something to brag about but it was free)

Things for the project I am looking for:
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti (The non external power version because I want low power consumption and a good card that's supported in Windows XP driver version 368.81)
PSU: SeaSonic SSP-300SFG 300W SFF 80PLUS Gold (Should be enough for the built)

I bought these Skull Candy Bluetooth headphones at Heathrow duty-free a while back and, along with my Corsair USB headphones, they are possibly the most socially friendly tech products I've ever bought.
My main PC is in the living room which is also where the TV is and my wife works from home in the spare bedroom nearby, so that I can game or watch TV whilst disturbing nobody.
Marital bliss ensured.

Replace the GTX 1660Ti with this. Now is AMD only.

Picked up a new mouse for $40. The white bits on the G502 "SE" version makes it look really cheap though...

Benchmark Scores bench...mark? i do leave mark on bench sometime, to remember which one is the most comfortable. :o
a bit of a silly idea ... doesn't go in "my pc atm" nor in "ghetto modding"

oh well i am not sure i did post that NZXT Cryo E40 on the thread

sturdy metal grid 2x 80mm fans (way better than one single big fan, since you can direct the airflow where it it needed and usually laptops have 2 vents that would need that)
NZXT_Cryo_E40.jpgNZXT_Cryo_E40_laptop_cooler_03.jpgCryo-03.jpg

so i found that one back on the "forgotten realm of the dark age of hardware buying without real need for it" shelf... don't blame me, it was cheap :laugh: (~15$)

well i found an use to it ... got a good tablet? an event on a mobile game need intensive farming? don't want to use LDPlayer on the PC because you need the PC for something else? your sofa is too hot...

fret not! the solution is the "please don't kill me i am out of idea" battlestation!
IMG_20200328_162457.jpg
lucky the Mediapad M5 8.4" is just the right size for the rubber pad to hold her in place, the angle crafted carefully using the edge of the sofa doesn't let the pillow hinder the air intake, the aluminum back of the tablet is ideal and the addition of my Aukey 20'000 mAh and a short USB C cable make it perfect and transportable if ever needed


end words ... "always follow your compulsive buyer syndrome, anything can be useful one day ... yes ... even 250 TP rolls"
