The happy end of the computer saga

Posted on November 11, 2013 by Oleg Volk

My friend Arli just drove up all the way from Memphis with a higher-end motherboard and processor, fixing my computer. Just in case, we tossed in an extra fan for the disk array and another for the video card. Everything is working fine now.

    That reminds me, for future reference – do you play (serious 3d) games on your computer?

    If not, you might look into one of the passively cooled video cards for your next build; they’re perfectly good for anything BUT serious gaming, and they have the advantage of never having a fan fail. Fewer moving parts is better, pretty much always.

    Obviously they depend on good case ventilation, but they also make less heat than a Serious Gaming Card.
