Whoa…

Whoa!!! It has been quite some time since I last updated my blog. Now is the time to update. I accumulated freaking lots of pictures so prepare to be picture-showered. =D

Well firstly though I got my 3870 last week =D Here are a few pictures of it.

My parcel arrived from Austria, Europe in such a plain box

P1011874

Games and 3870 is inside.

 

P1011876

Hohohoho… It’s the Sapphire Ultimate HD 3870 512MB GDDR4.

 

P1011883 

Sorry for the picture, was really eager to test this baby.

 

P1011887

Bunch of accessories they gave. It even includes DVI-D to HDMI convertor and a Molex to 6pin power connector.

Time to get it installed by getting my sleeved 6pin connector that cost me a cut on the thumb.

P1011890 

My dear 6pin.

 

P1011892

Time to get it in!

Well while installing, there was this problem that my CPU cooler heat pipes blocked the heat sink a little. Though with a little more strength, it was in.

P1011895

This is seriously something great.

P1011896

Touchy touchy…

P1011902

Running on AMD Spider platform now.

Before I end this post, I would like to say

THANK YOU UNCLE FOR GETTING ME THE GRAPHIC CARD!!!

 

EDIT : Also, I sticked the Sapphire sticker to my calculator again.

P1011910

The sticker. It has the reflective properties.

 

P1011913

Sticked!

Photoshopping 101

For the past like 2 days, I found something to Photoshop, which is the AMD Dragon platform mascot, the Dragon of course.

While I was photoshopping, I thought about printing it and pasting to my transparent file that I carry along with it at school.

So here’s what happened during the process.

 

mistake 1

Mistake number 1. Collage is not always pleasant.

mistake 2

Mistake number 2. Arranging could be a problem with SD monitors like I do.

mistake 3

Mistake number 3, the most headache one of all. After finally arranging you are unhappy with the results/placing.

Oh man for hours I’ve been doing this just to have some perfection.

Actually I did another big mistake that is saving it in a SD resolution so I had to patch up all again which took me like 30 minutes.

But all those time sure are worth it. Here I would share my AMD Dragon inspired by AMD for all my fellow readers! =D

Stuffs happening + mom’s cable management

Well I’ll start off with the stuffs happening first.

I found out that my mom have bad cable management so I took a box and do some magic there. But then something struck me deeply; my table’s space. It’s like jail here.

P1011577

Oh the space… Where are you?

So there’s again, needing to do some magic here to my table.

 

P1011757

That separator thing is from my other box. It is quite short so… imperfection is expected.

 

P1011761

Finished!

This was rater a simple and fast project. So it took me like half an hour to cut, stick, plotting the position, touching up and patching.

Well the intention of this box it for;

 

P1011763

Yeah holding up my stuff for easy access.

 

P1011765

Filled with stuff.

Besides this, I also discovered that my motherboard has some kind of problems with this version of Kingston’s 4GB flashdrives.

 

P1011767

OKAY!!! Time for my mom’s cable management!!

 

P1011768

Tools of the day.

 

P1011771

The place to stick the box to. I know it’s a little weird but that’s my plan.

P1011776

After. Don’t ask for the process because its hell.

 

P1011784

Side view. I think it did a great work holding all the cables here and also with the great box size.

Before I end this post, which is lame; I wish to share this picture that I compiled all the computer part brands into a big one.

Events of my live… Again…

I wish I can rant all my cold and hard feelings out. It feels like blocking my way of advancement. Anyway here’s my mom holding BIG aloe plant leaf… I think

 

P1011560

WHOA!!

 P1011561

Look how thick and juicy it is lol. There’s actually a lot more and much fatter than this at my house.

P1011558

Everyone loves surprises, but not when they actually have to go through the surprise by eating it, or maybe touching that thing lol.

Out of curiosity, I took out my Phenom X3 sticker and applied it to my scientific calculator.

P1011565

Dang, my precious sticker.

P1011566 

Before this I already sticked my motherboard’s sticker there…

P1011567 P1011571

Before                                             After

Heart was struck with a sharp needle after sticking this. Anyway though, I never regret since I can admire my AMD Phenom X3 anywhere I go haha.

After that I tried sticking a car shade to the fan as a fan dust filter. I followed pekies idea from Lowyat. This is how I did it…

P1011585

Car shade, for those who don’t know what I’m talking about. (I don’t know what this thing is called actually =P)

P1011590

Washed due to dirt and dried with my friendly USB fan.

After drying,

P1011599

Measuring…

P1011601

Takes like 1/4 of the whole car shade.

P1011602

CUT!!!

P1011609

After sticking, this is how it looks like. Still looks great…

P1011612

Back view.

The point of doing this is to change this high quality 120mm fan to my mom’s VGA cooling system. Her fan was loud and she couldn’t sleep properly due to the noise… and there was lots of dust…

P1011614

Oh noz…

P1011616

After cleaning and mounting the 120mm fan. Looks new…

Well now what I have to do is wait and see the result of this baby if it works. My cousin was on a conversation with me today and he showed me this.
