HME 2009, Day 3: It was very crowded at the MSI booth.

HME 2009, Day 2: Component wall - MSI P55-GD65 on sale.

I Have recently had to change out my graphics card to keep me in the 21'st century of gaming and as we took the old one out a mate of mine suggested using it with the Friesians for a few photos.

So here's what I got....

pinch the sides and push gently through the PCB

HME 2009, Day 3: Early Sunday morning waiting for the first people to visit the MSI booth.

HME 2009, Day 1: MSI's Bart behind the conrols of the DJ panel and CS:S gameserver.

The graphics card fan on our backup server has been in the process of dying for the past month, so we tore off the small heat sink and fan and slapped on a huge passive heat sink with thermal epoxy.

Postscript: It didn't end up working :(

HME 2009, Day 2: Concentrating hard at the MSI booth.

I Have recently had to change out my graphics card to keep me in the 21'st century of gaming and as we took the old one out a mate of mine suggested using it with the Friesians for a few photos.

So here's what I got....

A new graphics card.

Short of a pony, I think this was the best thing I could have gotten her. She was hyperventilating when she got it.

This is actually the second card I bought her; the first went back to Amazon after I discovered, belatedly and with much swearing, that her current computer lacks an AGP slot.

HME 2009, Day 2: Component wall - MSI R4650.

It isn't even hot here. Room temperature is about 22°C and all case fans are operational.

If I had a hot-air thingy I could try to reflow the RAM chips. But a replacement card is much cheaper than getting a cheap hot-air station. Maybe I will keep the card for experimenting with it later.

HME 2009, Day 3: MSI's Elif providing visitors information about our notebooks and AIOs.

Gfx card decided to go passive all by itself.

HME 2009, Day 1: GX623 with a Core 2 Duo P7350 and ATI Mobility Radeon HD4670.
