2016-06-17 18:54:00 UTC  

Where people would try to stop technology from evolving

2016-06-17 18:54:23 UTC  

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103849 for whatever reason this was in a 2011 prebuilt

2016-06-17 18:54:43 UTC

2016-06-17 18:54:51 UTC

2016-06-17 18:54:51 UTC  

this was before I was /g/

2016-06-17 18:55:01 UTC  

2011 was 5 years ago

2016-06-17 18:55:05 UTC  

Me neither actually

2016-06-17 18:55:09 UTC

2016-06-17 18:55:22 UTC  

Last pre-built I had was like 3 years ago

2016-06-17 18:55:30 UTC  

3 to 4

2016-06-17 18:55:44 UTC  

i was an ape when i built my pc, by all rights it shouldn't work but it does

2016-06-17 18:55:51 UTC  

>had a prebuild in 2011
>that means he only recently moved to building his own

2016-06-17 18:56:03 UTC  

yeah I bent some pins on the USB thing

2016-06-17 18:56:09 UTC  

and had to straighten them with plyers

2016-06-17 18:56:14 UTC  

SAME

2016-06-17 18:56:19 UTC  

usb 3 header is awful

2016-06-17 18:56:32 UTC  

like the cable are so ridgid and they fall out and the pins bend so easily

2016-06-17 18:56:33 UTC  

usb3 is pretty useless tbh

2016-06-17 18:56:57 UTC  

How long have you been /g/ Storm?

2016-06-17 18:57:08 UTC  

I was on /g/ right as I got the prebuilt

2016-06-17 18:57:13 UTC  

then I realised that I goofed

2016-06-17 18:57:18 UTC  

but it was too late

2016-06-17 18:57:36 UTC  

was it only of those awful laptop board crammed in a desktop things?

2016-06-17 18:57:40 UTC  

with all the things soldered down

2016-06-17 18:57:43 UTC  

nope

2016-06-17 18:57:54 UTC  

a friend asked me to upgrade his PC and it was basically a gutted laptop shoved in a tiny case

2016-06-17 18:57:57 UTC  

full atx, multiple pcie slots, expandable ram, the works

2016-06-17 18:57:59 UTC  

nothing I could do

2016-06-17 18:58:14 UTC  

it wasn't a bad buy, but the PSU was awful

2016-06-17 18:58:17 UTC  

only thing it would support is a low profile gpu

2016-06-17 18:58:26 UTC  

so get a lp 750ti

2016-06-17 18:58:31 UTC  

i think they make them

2016-06-17 18:58:36 UTC  

his psu was 220watts

2016-06-17 18:58:39 UTC  

o

2016-06-17 18:58:41 UTC

2016-06-17 18:58:42 UTC

2016-06-17 18:58:46 UTC  

so I couldn't replace it

2016-06-17 18:58:52 UTC

2016-06-17 18:58:52 UTC
