Facit upgrade
« on: Fri, 07 September 2012, 16:25:31 »
Did a week-end work for a friend and was paid in computer parts. So now my old Facit machine will get an upgrade.
From 2GB of ram to 16 from Corsair. Definitely a overkill but why not. The weakest part in the system, a GeForce 8400 gs, will be replaced by a GeForce GT 430 from Asus (silent).
For more boost I'll install the OS on a new Intel 520 SSD 120gb. Finally I will change my CPU-cooler from a Noctua NH-C12p to a Noctua NH-L12 to solve some clearance and airflow issues.

I'm also building on a new screen mount. After that only a good 4:3 monitor remains to be obtained.

Was it anything like the potter's wheel scene from Ghost? Which one was Demi?

You all have to much imagination.

As long as it was all consensual.

At least that-s what I-m assuming. :-*
