If you have to go to a high-end gym, that's probably your best bet.😉

Bryan Sanchez86 said:PC Modding. What, did you paint them and install the neon lights too? 🤣

I honestly have no clue what the price tag is. The rig in the photo is 20 years old. 😁 But it shouldn't be pricey. I doubt a whole kit of these parts would cost more than $33.

😁
fala Simb...
She's finally getting around to fixing the PC. Right now it's wide open on all sides, covered in dust like an attic from the 1950s...😛

"...the only thing is, modular cables aren't actually as big of a deal as I thought they'd be..."

Why?

arrived today.

Haven't had time to build it yet. I'll post impressions and photos tomorrow if I get around to it.

Still hunting for an 8800 GTS for an SLI setup... anyone want to lend me one so we can see who hits the highest score on the PC Gamer forums?😬

Bryan Sanchez86 said:Like this. You need that stuff. Along with some bread and a pair of Nikes. 😁

hey Simb, I honestly thought it was something else... but whatever. No big deal.🙂
Roughly how much are we talking? Can you give me a breakdown—like, what exactly comes in the package?

Yeah, honestly? I think I only need one of those three. You know, the one with the brush on it.😕

Exactly...😉

😲 Seriously, 8 hours of school in one day???

I like it 😲 😲 😲

I’m lost. Who the hell even is this guy? 😲

Joshua Davis18 said:Come on, for God's sake, just explain what the hell that word even means. 😬

It's like saying "turn" instead of "curve"...🙂

Like how some people say "bread" while others have their own way of saying it back home...🤣

Bryan Sanchez86 said:Yeah, exactly. It’s not a standalone grinder; it’s just an attachment for a standard drill. You can probably find one at a hardware store (or even Spotify 😁), and it shouldn't break the bank.

It’ll save you time, prevent muscle aches, and actually make the job look decent. Start with a coarse grit, then finish it off with something fine.

Oh, okay, so it's just a drill attachment. Got it, thanks...🙏
I guess while I'm out grabbing groceries, I'll just pick up some new sneakers too...🙄
🤣 🤣 🤣

Bryan Sanchez86 said:You'd be better off using a grinder with a backing pad for the sandpaper.

That’s not exactly like a standard grinder, right?

Is it one of those where the sanding disc just spins in a circle?

Joseph Carter9 said:Get two cans of spray, but grab some primer too. Sand everything down first, hit it with a coat of primer, then spray your color 2 or 3 times. That makes the paint harder to chip off later.
As for drying time, just check the back of the can. It depends on whatever brand you buy.

Why the hell do I need sandpaper for all this?😲
What kind am I supposed to use? Something coarse?
Give me a break...

So, I'm thinking about doing some PC Modding on my case. I want to spray the inside a different color...
Now, for anyone who's actually done this: how much spray paint am I going to need? How many coats should I go with, and what's the actual drying time? Someone walk me through the process.🙏

Set mine to 2.2V 😉

wiredmarlin5 said:A buddy of mine picked up some Zalman fans at Best Buy—two 80mm and two 120mm—and they’re loud as hell.

The Papst ones are way overpriced though. 🙄

Another friend has a Glacialtech Silent Blade and says it's alright.

Honestly? If we're talking budget gear, it's all the same crap.

Yet people make such a huge deal out of fans that cost a fortune. $10 🙄

They actually think spending $10 will get them something significantly better. 🙄

Come on, why make this so complicated? Just grab that Zalman or a Papst 🙂
Overclocking (Main Thread) in Desktops ·
Go ahead and grab it, but just know it’s going to be louder than some of those pricier fans...
A lot of those cheaper ones are easy to find, like the Glialtech at Best Buy for about $7...

Hey, let me know when you get 😁

What kind of PSU are we talking about here?
Can't wait...

Just buy 1GB of RAM instead.🙄
