Walking-dead computer

Hello dear readers and new visitors!

It’s official, my main computer is dead! Yesss! Technological advancements dictates I must replace at least 3 components: motherboard, processor (CPU) and memory (RAM) to replace that old motherboard. Everything else works though, so I’m kinda stuck with a half-dead PC.

I could’ve upgraded years ago, but never was a priority nor needed… until now!

I’m planning on gettingĀ an Intel Core i7 CPU with liquid cooler, motherboard that supports up to 64Gb of RAM and while at it, an SSD and a Blu-ray reader/burner to archive all those large static files from my regular backups.

For hardware junkies out there, I’ll try to make a video and/or a post of my new build. :D

In the meantime, keep your comments and questions flowing!

Enjoy!

Sirus

P.S.: Those of you wondering how I posted this, I either use my laptop or my emergency Linux PC.
