    Don't laugh.. but I used to have one 😄
     
    It had a Celly 500 and 256mb ram 😄
     
    I used it for Rom. 3 emulation back in the early Express Vu days 🙂

    There's a user on Reddit that claims (!!) to have a full set and apparently wants to sell for $$$$, but I find it not really credible so I won't link to it.
     
    That said, the images show how the set looks like, so if you're handy enough, consider making a one-off 3D printed version based on a similar generic (and much, much cheaper!) case.

    Mustangmatt215 got a reaction from kelvinhall05 in Ammonia cooled loop   
    Hi guys so I was wondering. Since ammonia is a great refrigeration affect how would it handle I. A closed loop in a computer. Since many places such as ice-skating ri KS and such that need to get temps below 0 use ammonia as  cooling.

    Did you pull off that plastic sticket on the base of the cooler?
    And if your coverage is good, no need for more thermal paste

    Have you tried remounting the cooler?
    Dis you remove the sticker at the bottom of the mounting of the cooler?
    Did you add enough thermal paste?
    Is the mounting pressure good enough?

    Mustangmatt215 reacted to Mira Yurizaki in are nvme m.2 cards faster than USB 3.1 gen 2?   
    Short answer: NVMe is faster than USB 3.1 Gen 2
     
    Long answer:
    Were the B's capitalized or no? A single PCIe 3.0 has a raw bandwidth capacity of 985 megabytes per second (MB/s). Four lanes would be 3,940 megabytes per second, which after some conversion would put it at about 3.94 gigabytes per second (GB/s). But multiplying 3,940 megabytes by 8 to get megabits gives us 31,520, which you can fudge with some numbers and rounding and say it's 32 gigabits per second.
     
    USB 3.1 Gen 2 is rated at 10 gigabits per second, which 1.212 gigabytes per second (the conversion is accounting for an encoding method that uses some bits, so not every bit is useful)
     
    In any case, a capital B is bytes, a lowercase b is bits.

    Mustangmatt215 reacted to TheBahrbarian in Shipping a PC. What to do with the CPU and Motherboard.   
    I always thought the best way to ship an entire system was to remove the GPU as well as the CPU cooler, but leave everything else untouched. I imagine for the most part everything else in the PC is pretty secure as is and can handle being shipped. Maybe just add some kind of packing material inside the tower to stop anything that comes loose from moving around?
     
    But in regards the the CPU itself, I would imagine if you dont have the socket protector the safest thing to do is leave the cpu in.
