Guy came to me with a old pentium 4 PC this was his cooling solution? have you seen worse?
Oh my a fan on a heatsink, how terrible
>>54345743
A improper sized fan
>>54345787
How is this cringe its just a cheap solution
>>54345689
Is that a 40mm fan?
Poontium (4-3)4's run very hot
>>54345689
How do those fan screws attach?
>>54345689
at least its not thermal paste on cpu pins tier
>>54345842
Nope 30mm
>>54345868
Directly into the heatsink
>>54345873
Wanna see a bad thermal paste install?
>>54345873
This is the thermal paste on the heatsink.
>>54345689
>Pentium 4
>that cooling
Did he want a housefire ?
>>54345952
My thought exactly
I had a gpu fan die once about 10 years ago and I did something similar. Worked fine.
>>54345689
>autism, the post
>>54345860
It's a SL6HL pentium 4
>>54346005
>SL6HL
so, not prescott at least
>>54346010
Imagine a pentium d smithfield with such poor cooling
>>54346070
funny you say that
>1 year ago
>someone gives me a pc with a pentium D 820

>I burned myself several times taking it out
>it was so fucking hot that I had to put it in the freezer for 5 minutes before i could handle it
>ended up nigger rigging another fan directly to the heatsink
the CPU got hot enough to fry the thermal sensor, but still worked other than that. I later managed to sell the pc for $40
>>54346216
I'm also guessing you took the PC to there place. No returns that way.
>>54345858
>Macs are so clean and organized
>>54345689
It must sound like a swarm of bees under load
>>54345917
I don't even...what....
>>54346297
The box shows the logo on the processor itself, said person wasnt too bright.
>>54345917
Wah who... who did this... wtf dumb ass humans.
>>54345917
Cringe
>>54346070
It's a good processor if you need a space heater and a computer. Keepin those toesies warm
>>54346360
Is it called EOS?
ElementaryOS?
Elementary OS?
El OS?
>>54345946
lmao is that hair
>>54346540
Yes, with the amount of dust in the PC it has been there for a while.
>>54345689
>2.64 MB, 2116x2160
>have you seen worse?
Yeah, just now.
>>54346608
Blame samsung
This... is... cringe!!!!
>>54345689
doesn't look all that frightening for a system of that era
>>54346761
>alarm temp set to 149
Fucking why. It'll auto shut down at 100c regardless.
>>54346872
Its set to Fahrenheit for some reason, that's 65c
>>54346872
It's not Celsius...
>>54346892
>>54346897
Oh fuck me
Rice af though.
>>54346872
Thats an obvious 2001: A Space Odyssey reference. the ratios of the dimensions of the monolith (at least in the first 3 dimensions) are exactly 1:4:9
This guy has some serious good taste.
>>54346761
All it needs now is a boost gauge.
>>54345917
>Mfw HP did that when they replaced my AMD Phenom and I ran this for years
The sticker was burned in the cooler
I first wondered where the CPU was gone when I finally removed the cooler
>>54346761
why the hell does aerocool not have any pics of it that are not for ants
by the way poster is that a display embedded in a case ?
just curious
>>54347299
Yes it is embedded.
This
>>54345917
ho shit thats bad.
>apple fanbase
>>54347668
jesus, that reminds me of when i cleaned out my old pentium 4 HT tower.
>>54346521
eOS or Elementary
>>54345858
Yech, Macintosh.
>>54345689
Got any good stories? Whats the procedure for finding illegal content on a PC you are repairing? I've seen some fucked up shit when I had to do repairs during my internship.
>>54345917
What's wrong here? Is it the sticker?
>>54345860
>>54345952
>>54345966
the fuck
it's just a 2.8 GHz northwood, OP's picture is pretty typical cooling for those, they weren't really all that hot, just hot for their time
most of the housefire memes were associated with the later prescott core and its dual-die derivatives anyway which could reach pretty unreal 150+W TDPs towards the end
>>54349210
>150+W TDPs
W-H-A-T??
>>54346005
Super Lava 6 Hot Lavas?
>>54349210
no pentium 4 was ever released with a TDP above 115W, and no pentium D was ever released with a TDP above 130W
>>>54345946 he's never seen thermal paste on the CPU pins
>>54349229
>>54350351
>no pentium 4 was ever released with a TDP above 115W, and no pentium D was ever released with a TDP above 130W
correct, however the their Xeon derivatives did, particularly the Tulsa MPs

Good way to fuck it.

Didn't the FX models have 220W TDP?
>>54345689
that's nothing compared to this.
>>54346255
>>54349021
Shills.
>>54357663
that was an office machine btw , not a gaming one
>>54357663
why the fug there is a molex on the motherboard?
compatiblity with older power supplies to power the PCI-E?
>>54349158
Sticker is placed directly on the heat spreader. Core temperatures become higher than normal and may actually burn the sticker.
>>54357700
it's not connected anywhere. it just floats around waiting to short circuit something.
>>54357678
No one gives a shit about cleaning office pcs. Typing on a one right now. It's probably a fucking desert inside
>>54346521
Some called it eOS but the devs didn't like it to be called that way and tweeted it once, that they want users to call it elementary OS
>>54346938

>>54357700
supplementary power to the PCIe slots, it's still on a thing on a couple modern motherboards
>>54352053
>Implying 18 year olds can define cringe
>>54360151
Doesn't a 8+4 pin fit for 115X? I would understand it if there was 2011-3.
>>54345917
What is wrong here?
>>54360297
Oh shit I thought that was coloring on the metal or something from the factory, not a sticker the buyer actually put on it.
>>54360202
he said under 18 AND can't define the meaning of cringe
not that he is 18 and because of that can't define the meaning of cringe
there's a difference

I install Windows 10 on "broken/virus" computers. If they don't have a key i get w7 keys from work then "upgrade" them.

>>54345905
it's 50mm you dipshit. come back when you actually have a fucking clue about what you're talking about and not just the bullshit they failed at teaching you properly in school.
>>54360708
every. time. just no.
>>54357663
Ha, I had Asus with that shit cooler too (terrible hobbled excuse for a cooler, they ripped me off so much with that shit - fuck you Asus). I used a heatsink from socket Pentium III to replace the whole thing.
>>54345917
>>54357727
He probably saw this image and though that is how it is supposed to be.
>>54350803
Yeah, not the official TDPs, but I think the official values were considered a bit optimistic.
THIS.
Roooloroorl

Glue guy is that you?
>>54346216
>implying a heatsink stays hot that long.

I have the Formula Z version of this mobo
Maybe not cringe, but somewhat ugly design.
>>54364397
that looks like the ps vita interface lol
>>54364397
Its like they are dumbing it down to hit some kind of diversity quota.
>>54352035
thats only a problem when people try to build computers into freezers. Putting something hot into a freezer is fine if that thing is just hot and not actively generating heat of its own. Something that generates heat continuously is what makes the compressor work too hard over a long period and shortens its life.
How about this for cringe. I saw this at work recently when working on a clients server :/

Why are so many tech guys into furdom?
http://4hv.org/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?147712.post
>>54364742
Fascinating it seems like a lot of tech people are either gay or furries, I find it kind of amusing, but also horrifying that they'd do that to their expensive server!
>>54364824
>>54364520
I'm pretty sure I've seen that same furry image on that forum somewhere, maybe that same guy posts there.
>>54345917
Yes its dumb, but the thermal conductivity is maybe a few % worse then without the sticker, it even has paste.
>>54349145
Is this AVGN?
