It was a faithful laptop. Cry

What's the problem with it? Perhaps you can still fix it. Might just have to change a component.

Are there any benefits in doing that. It's not dangerous. It's not a bad idea, since if you can close it off completely the components won't get dirt filled. Does it cool it well?

The 2nd link i posted has a good FAQ.
It's not too good for overclocking but yeah it does cool well.
The guys even kept the fans running LOL

This is old though i seen guys doing it back in 2003 roughly.

I've seen a working TV immersed in liquid CFC to demonstrate it's inert properties.  Isn't there a paste or gum that you can use to remove hard to remove fluff and dirt from hard to reach places on motherboards and cards?

Built a whole new mid-tier PC 2 and half years ago.  The weakest part of the rig is the GPU (gtx 660).  Some value increase in altcoins and will buy a new one Cheesy

I built my main computer all the way back in 2011. I can't believe it's been that long. And I just don't see any reason to upgrade. We have sort of reach a point where for most people, the benefits aren't going to be that great for the money spent. Being that this is a Bitcoin forum, and people here mine, etc. How often does the average person here upgrade their computer?



Well my computer is 2 year old longer. After all this computer is currently working and it is well performed because the specification is updated in the trending computer now a days. I just lucky that i knew about computer in this modern period because the cost of computer is not higher as usual.

It probably has an easy fix. Tinker around with the components. Try to find out what died and replace it.
