I went to college and overclocked the athlon tbird with a peltier and a paperclipped heatsink.

@Bakkoda @monica_b1998 I had a 700MHz processor that burned out when one of the fans seized up. They were too fast for calculations.

I remember that. A surprising number of people at my highschool were aware. It was a big topic

I had one of these. They ran so hot but were so impressive.

Yes.

Is that Gary Kildall as in the CP/M guy?

I've been enjoying watching those episodes. They've held up surprisingly well.

Masterful reporting.

Thats the coolest post that comm has gotten in ages lol, maybe ever ❤️

I can smell this picture

Love it

Aw fuck yeah, I'll have to keep an eye out!! 😊

Hope you have a lovely day! ❤️

You might cross post this over to !y2k@sopuli.xyz, beige isn't really the color people most associate with y2k, but this is super cool and they don't get many posts!

That PC case looks fuckin rad, I love the scoops and swoopy lines

Oh man, had that Compaq in the late 90's myself

Same speakers too!

A Compaq with a Dell keyboard, did you think no one would notice? Great setup anyway.

Can anyone recommend a good Linux distro for my 1955 JOHNNIAC?
