I bought a buddy of mine a 34” 1440p 200hz monitor for his birthday. He’s always ran an old office 1080p 60hz 23” monitor, so the cooling system never showed its weakness due to its low utilization. His specs are a Ryzen 9900x and a RTX 4070 on 128gb of ddr5.

He’s always struggled in games because he’s not able to see all that well so I decided to get him a new monitor for his birthday and he absolutely loves it. However, given that his hardware has to work harder, I assumed that the weaknesses would show, but I didn’t know how bad the cooling loop really was.

His 4070 was thermal throttling in most games and the pics will likely show why.

Long story short, he threw away the original fan shroud and screws for his 4070 but kept the heatsink. So to put a bandaid on his gpu, we found some screws from an old motherboard threaded into the gpus heatsink, and we were able to repaste and mount the heatsink and zip tie some noctua fans. Just so he can buy some time for a proper waterblock. The current waterblock that was used didn’t even have the correct bolt pattern so he only had 2 screws securing the block to the gpu die, and there was no cooling for his vram or his vrm.

The big fan is there for when I'm gaming. The clip holds the heatsink in place. This was a former hp 250 g7.

My husband has dropped this quite a few times and super glued it back together at one point.

With the last drop, it is getting replaced with a new one thanks to asurion. He couldn't super glue it back together this time because the trigger and other buttons came off.

I was wat a YouTube video at 1:00 am and all of the sudden my brow crashe and kept immid crashing as soon I tried to open it again and after I finally got it to stay I was greeted by this flash ban, can somebody explain what I see here? (I use Edge here.)

I'm not sure if this is meant to go here but this is my old phone.. (I really don't know what goes where on this app because I barely use it)

is still being used. not stored away or anything, yikes!

Oh boy i wonder how ill remove this!

I "had to"change the battery because I thought the reason why I couldnt use touchscreen was because of the battery but after "changing" the battery I found the reason was BECAUSE İT HAD TO BE RESETTED!While taking out the battery,I bent the screen.then after an hour of struggle,I managed to unlock the table!even tho the battery wasnt holding charge and spicy.It was getting the job done enough.whatever.

I can't open any file and my dock is gone, what is happening???
