Everything about the P4 at release is hilarious to me. Insanely massive Intel stumble and AMD only manages to shine for a few short years.

spankmeister posted:i had one of these i actually still had that in an old c2d machine up until about a month ago my 4770k was running really slowly at load so i eventually checked the temps and it was over 100c (this was with the stock intel cooler). i tried to put the zalman cooler on it but intel changed the size of the socket by a few mm i guess so it didnt fit  eventually i just got some gigantic noctua thing and its at like 20c now. im actually amazed that it didnt poo poo itself after running at >100c for like over a month though. lucky i got pissed off enough to investigate why it was slowing down i guess

ya the thermal throttling is p good and if im not mistaken you can still get mounting kits for that cooler for modern sockets

yeah it's just a 4590 i5 and an msi gtx 970 4g. i use the machine for vs for work and a couple games. it started a few days ago where the machine would spontaneously hard reset while playing rocket league, which i did a search on and someone seemed to have the same problem, so i assumed it was some bug. tonight though i was playing a dota match and like 35 minutes in it shuts down instantly, the power led was going on and off, the 970's light was still on, but even if i cut the power and tried to restart it, it didn't do poo poo. i left it alone a few minutes and it started working again, but then opening a game back up crashed it almost instantly. i had my chassis fan settings on silent mode although I think they're supposed to be pretty good at lower speeds, plus i wasn't having problems before a few days ago. i set the speed in the bios to performance and played dota fine. it wasn't really hot in the house so i have no clue what's going on. after the fact the i5 was idling around 25-30c, and the 970 around 35-40c.

Motherboards usually raise hell on the speaker in case of thermal shutdown, this sounds more like a power supply issue. Plus the CPU would thermal throttle to hell way before then so you really wouldnt be able to play poo poo.

Our first "proper" family PC had a 1400 Tbird in it, the thing was basically a space heater that could occasionally do sums. Ran for years though until one day the CPU fan died and I guess the lovely no-name motherboard didn't have any thermal protection at all.

It's most probably the PSU but it can also be the power regulation on the motherboard or the graphics card, i would take a quick look at the caps for anything bulging or leaking before buying parts.

Better than the old AMD socket clips where you lived in deadly fear of either spearing the motherboard with the screwdriver if you slipped out of the tiny notch, or cracking the die because the radiator was a tiny bit tilted when you were wrestling with the spring.

hobbesmaster posted:indeed, I learned how they worked by breaking one You just line the pegs up with the holes and push down. Most people gently caress it up cause t hey start twisting the tabs all around and poo poo. There are only 2 positions for the pegs, the default way they come in the box and a 90 degree turn to release them to remove the thing. You should never be turning them more than 90 degrees .

It only takes a few blows and then you can huff the res.t no you can't, they started adding bitterent to canned air. that poo poo is heinous, it just leaves this nasty taste in your mouth. i remember when i was in high school we had a LAN party and someone brought a six pack of canned air for the express purpose of shooting the refridgerent at each other after we depleted a couple cans we started getting headaches and had to open the windows to ventilate the house, lol

i remember someone discussing installing a heatsink and if you did it properly you'd hear "positive engagement clicking" which was a euphemism for "god awful crunching sound that almost always made people think they broke the thing"

Ran for years though until one day the CPU fan died and I guess the lovely no-name motherboard didn't have any thermal protection at all. did these cpus even have anything internally capable of measuring temperature? i remember having a motherboard that had a thermistor in the middle of the cpu socket. given how hot these things got in such a short space of time i doubt it could react quick enough to save the cpu from cooking. if you ran one without a heaksink it would actually get hot enough to melt the solder holding the passives on the top of the chip.
