A thread about cr*p

[Joe]

My Shuttle has over time become increasingly noisy.....annoyingly so.I decided to do what I had, for ages now,planned to do.....change the ICE fan for a quieter one.
Open it up to do the job and found that the radiator was virtually completely blocked by dust and ...well,more dust.
Also took the opportunity to install the psu that I had modded with a Adda fan............guess what?.........the psu was also choked up with dust.

So people....if you have been running your Shuttle for more than 6 monthes and haven't had a look in there or cleaned it out do have a look........you might be surprised/shocked by what you find.


Or maybe I just live in a very dirty house?.....:D





Oh......and as a PS,my cpu temps have dropped by 10 degrees since I cleaned out the cr*p.

your house is just dusty, my pcs is dust freee, there isnt even a build up on the fan blades like u typically get after years

But Ryan, your house has vacuum cleaner ports built into the walls.....and thats just not normal!!!!!!

Never seen anything quite like it....1.5 inch diameter round sockets in walls to which pipe attaches to provide inbuilt vacuum.

It's not normal i tells ya!!!!!

[dejavu]

its not a clean fetish i tells ya, its just the way it works in my house, rather drag a hose than a full vacuum cleaner up 3 flights of stairs thank you:)

[guybirch]

u have vacuum cleaner ports in your walls??? WTF

[dejavu]

i have a central vacuum cleaner and hoses run through the walls and allows you to plug hose into wall and use as hoover, saves carrying machinery around up and down stairs

[guybirch]

ahhh american inspired i believe..seen them b4..very good idea

[ParrotBoy]

Wow...... Bet that cost just a little bit of cash....

[dejavu]

honestly dont know i didnt get it put it, was put in as house was being renovated, used to be an old mill

[Proplus]

Oh man, forget upgrading my PCs, I want that vacuum system!!!

[dejavu]

[slartiBardfarst]

thinking about it, you could plug your computer up to that and have really low temperatures.

[dejavu]

sadly it would be noisy and that wont do!
