Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
Yep, that's an ASUS- can you guess how I know?
Also, it's been "cost reduced" per Intel. The chip has no heatsink and the area for that MOSFET(?), while being silkscreened for a larger one, has a smaller-than-original one.
I'd try replacing those KZGs."pokemon go... to hell!"
EOL it...

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
one thing that always drove me nuts was the fact that it only supports 2gb RAM, this new(to me) one supports up 32gb. plus the two extra cores and extra 50meg of speed are nice. then there is the onboard RAID, the ability to boot from add on cards, and the slots for my Quantum Bigfoots

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
netburst cpu's will be worth more than gold when the global cooling kicks in and you need to heat your pc to stop the harddrives freezing.

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
I've got an Intel Q8200 that keeps my living room warm in winter. Seriously, that thing puts out a lot of heat. Makes me sweat sitting next to it in summer. I keep a fan in the corner to get cool air over here.sigpicThe Sky Is Falling

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
My (thank goodness, retired) P4-3400 definitely gets quite warm but my video cards are just as bad, if not worse... The Radeon 8500DV AIW in that machine makes the system a venerable heater.
My i7 and Q9550S don't get that warm at all by themselves...
However I recently stuck my Radeon5770HD in my i7 to get a bit more GPU speed. That video card almost doubled the i7's total power consumption when idle... Ridiculous.Comment

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
Based on the symptoms, that would be my guess as too... Well either that or the CPU socket BGA. Most (if not all) standard Intel and AMD heatsink retention mechanisms after the socket 370 and socket 462 era rely on the motherboard's flexing force to hold down the CPU heatsink (which is a very poor design, IMO). As a result, many motherboards end up getting warped from the CPU heatsink. If the CPU ever ran hot and was cycled many times, I wouldn't be too surprised if this fractured the CPU socket's BGA.
Same applies for the chipset BGA, and especially for Intel-built motherboards, since some of their chipset heatsink retention mechanism designs were just as poor (a few Intel D845 motherboards come to mind here, among others).
And lastly, while the chipset heatsink may seem to run cool to the touch, the chipset could still be quite hot. If it's got a small die and the heatsink is aluminum, chances are the thermal coupling is not very good.
Hey, don't be dissing the Netburst!
While not very efficient, it's probably the only CPU from the early years in the millenium that can still handle Adobe Flash fairly okay (especially the HT variants). Also good for video encoding/decoding (thanks to the long and narrow architecture, which is well fit for that task).
What?! Those 5" quantum bigfoot HDDs have terrible reliability - bad sector galore at best. Large platters have complex problems that are hard to overcome. I'm not surprised at all that 5.25" HDDs did not catch in the industry.Originally posted by stj
Heh, yeah they do make a cool sound when running, and especially when the HDD initializes. My 3.2 GB makes the case vibrate in a funny wayOriginally posted by goontronmaybe i like the sound of them running.

Just scroll down on that page and check out the TDP!

Yup... 130W TDP
. And maxes out at 150-ish Watts. I tried it on a small mATX ASUS motherboard, and it made the whole board nice and very warm to the touch .

Re: my zombi-puter has finally died.
Yeah, I see those SB chips discolor the other side of the board too. I usually throw a heatsink on there and that helps quite a bit. I agree that Pentium D's aren't that bad. The 65nm ones were a lot better. As long as they have RAM to work with, a good heatsink, and a PSU that can handle the 12V load
My parents still use a Pentium D 940 as their main machine, with 4GB DDR2 667, 7 Home, and an Intel 240GB SSD. The thing boots up in about 20 secondsComment

I just bought a new ThinkPad laptop and I need to connect it to my home network. I have several computers on my network and can see each other in File Explorer and the older ones can communicate with each other (even with the new one) but the ThinkPad can see the other computers but can't communicate with them. I get the (network error 0x80070035 The network path not found). I tried several scenarios that I found on line but none of them worked?? Since the other computers on the network can communicate fine I'm assuming the problem is with the setup of the ThinkPad? All computers are running Windows...

Problem
This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached.... -
I noted that a number of consumer entertainment devices have the maximum speed marked on the wired network port and considering that there are broadband plans faster than 100 Mbit, the wired network port can be a bottleneck since some routers do not have Gigabit (only 100 Mbit) support for the WAN port let alone the wired network ports.
One other thing: Certain low cost network cables only have two pairs which limits speed to 100 Mbit. -
Boston Acoustics fans, this thread might not be for you.
A few years back (~2018 time frame), I picked up a set of free JVC speakers from someone on Craigslist that no one seemed to be interested in. The guy also had a single Boston Acoustics HD8 speaker – yes, just one cabinet. He said he had no idea where he got this one from or why it's only by itself. But like the JVC speakers, it was going to get tossed at the end of that week… so I came to collect, as usual. And that's all I know about this HD8. After all, I figured why not take it and see what's inside… show it to the...
