didtn have any polish on hand. so there is still some indium saughter on the CPU and the IHS. i thought about scrubbing it down to the point where i might would have been able to see the CPU cores, but i atm dont have access to fine enough sandpaper. 

 

Protip: be careful when using a 3000*C blowtorch to delid. turns out the substrate doesnt like that.......

 

no need for it to be polished, my skin probably has a albido close to 1

Anime is "Housuki no kuni" or "Land of the Lustrus"

 

Great show. I really recommend it

 

Edit: dlnt drop it the moment you see 3D. This show uses it to its best ability in every way

ill give it a try, not usually an anime dropper but the style is wat i go by so depends if its an eyesore or well incorporated into modern anime styles ig, still unique is good~ 

thanks!

It uses 2D animation when needed and 3D in general. Dont think youd ask for a better implementation. 

 

There is literally nothing else that would have made the Gemstonegirls justice. Only pure raytraced 3D scenes.

cool i liek tht kinda anime, check out susei no gargantia if u are utterly bored one day in the future~ 

[GoldenLag]

Your best choice in terms of systems would be a dell optiplex (or any office PC, offices, schools sells these or you can find them on the used market) with a core i5 3rd or 4th gen. (Make shure it has 8GB of ram or you will have to buy extra)

 

For about 150$ (ish)

Then grab a cx550 (2017) PSU from Corsair for 50$.

Then find a used R9 290x for about 80-90$ (ish).

Enjoy your 1080p high ultra world of tanks experience for about 250-300$ depending on the deals.

If you need a movie one day. 

 

Kimi No Na Wa (Your Name)

Or

Padema inverted

 

Kimi No Na Wa id a must watch and both are visually and storywise alazing movies. Kimi no ka wa should have been the animation film of the year 2017, (its the general consensis) somehow it didnt get nominated.

One really good movie is Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice)

He allready has a tower he can use.

 

OP while you are at it. If you have the budget, throw in a 20$ SSD.

And also avoid inverted formfactoe Cases. (They have the motherboard on the left side when looking from the front)

Good romance last season:

Bloom into you 

Its not for you if you dont like Yuri

Good sports anime 2 seasons ago: Hanebado

Its a badminton anime. Not for you if you dont like sweatdrops and is disgusted by that. It will ruin the action of that is the case

 

Ill be adding silent voice to my watchlist.

Sabagebu and Seitokai yakuindomo

Both silly shows. One with a lot of inuindos.

Then why did you recommend him to buy a Dell Optiplex if he already has a PC?

 

Or did you mean he has a case? As far as I know only the biggest one can be fitted to an ATX case, but it doesn't have normal front panel connectors.

He has a case. 

 

Front panel connectors arent the biggest worry. 

 

Im shure he can get some of the screwholes to fit. Though that is somewhat of a concern. 

 

He might have to pick up a HP tower depening on what is selling around him.

honestly i looked into the optiplexies but theres so many models and the cpus arent allways listed on them, are they all a certain type of cpu?

and so didnt know how to narrow one down, i havent seen many cheaper ones as there sorta pricy maybe since ppl began using them for other things ?...

 

wat dyu mean schools sells them? ive gotten pcs from a trash bin at a college before but idk how to legit ask for dell optiplex lol 

is there a model thats best too?

 

and about the i5 750,  it dosent seem to have integrated graphics so i guess itd be useless without a gpu installed alongside right?

Ask if they have older systems you can buy. Then check what hardware and offer failry. Doesnt need tol be optiplexes.

All you are really looking for is the motherboard CPU, Ram and HDD they come with. It doesnt need to be an Optiplex, but really any prebuilt with desktop CPUs and 8GB of Ram. 

 

You can look for those seperatly if you want to. The key is that you want 3rd or 4th gen or newer

But many prebuilt PC's doesn't have a standard power connectors or motherboard size.

 

2nd gen CPU's are also good, they are really similar to 3rd gen.

is 755 optiplex decent ? wat kinda processors can u swap into em?

Powerconnectors are usually similar. 

 

He can go for either tbh. 3rd and 4th gen are just good for eyeballing.

It depends on the hardware inside. 

 

Is it a core 2 duo system?

Too old. It supports up to Core2 Quad Q6700

Looks like even some of the bigger ones needs an adapter like this:
