Of all the shit nobody asked for.
Well. At least it's not actively harmful like most things these days. (Cough COPILOT cough)

Add it to your waifu build with the scented GPU.
This feels particularly old-school in the category of nonsense accessories for your computer lol. Like I'd see it at a local surplus store with a label telling me it's "Windows ME" compatible
Thus seems like one of those engineering decisions that make you question if some people have a different model of physics and chemistry.
You're going to use CASES of contact cleanet if anything goes wrong and cans when they go right.
I'd have thought the essential oil diffuser should be part of the video card so that it can release different fragrances depending on the colour palette of what's being displayed.
It's strange, but not a terrible use for the excess heat a pc gives off I guess.
Seems like the kind of thing you'd find as a random 5.25" bay accessory though (where a dvd drive would go).
Could you not just sit a little sponge on the warm top of the unit and add a drop of fragrance now and then?
God this would be hell in an open office plan. It would drive me insane with just 1 of those but I imagine this company dreams of selling to as many “tech workers” as possible.
How the hell is this better than "unreliable machines and confused corporate users"? Seems it's for nothing more than sneaking a diffuser into environments where it's rightly restricted. Every single time I'm feeling remotely okay with such non-sense...

This might be the dumbest product I've seen in a decade (excluding NFTs, of course).
Someone's getting desperate for new ideas.
We've kinda reached a point where no one has needed a new computer part for like 10 years excluding AAA gamers and video editors. Even then video games haven't really changed appearance very much they are just way more poorly optimized.
Absolutely, we are coming out with new versions of RAM and PCI express and hardware that won't take advantage of those specks for years. I built a mid tier to slightly lower end pc in 2016, and it can still play most games at max for 1080, which is fine. I built a newer higher end one near the end of 2023, and I fully expect to use this for the next 10 years min. Gone are the days of innovation where year to year would bring something crazy. I like that. Buying something that won't be outdated in 3 years is perfectly fine by me.
Wtf
This smell shit is getting out of control. Already hard enough to find unscented shit now they pull this on computers? What the hell. This is stupid.
If I wanted my PC parts covered in oily substances, I would just smoke inside.
They already smell nice (at least when they're new). Gotta sniff that factory new scent.
I don't know why but for some reason this makes me think of one guy like 18 years ago who sprayed the motherboard of his Compaq desktop with WD-40 because "it was runnin' slow" and then brought it to me when that didn't fix it.
I gave the motherboard a nice bath in electronics cleaner and replaced the hard drive (which was the actual problem). That PC definitely had a 'nice' smell afterwards.
