Yah sure it's always my fault but then when i have to give them a pill they don't let me help!

I repasted it as i thought it might be dry.  they certainly didnt service it so i am glad i opened it up.  I still have half a tube of corsair tm 30 remaining.  The outer case is a lot cooler to the touch since repasting the cpu.

I wonder how much it costs for the 2.5 inch drive caddy and cable?  only 16$ plus free shipping.. not bad  i have a 1 gig 2.5 inch hdd i forget whats on it.  could put a swap partition there i suppose.

I dig these little boxes very much for their zero power consumption and portability and I'm typing from a similar but with a Ryzen 5 2400GE instead; it's fast as an i7-7700T and its Vega 11 rocks in gaming, unlike those deadbeat Intel UHDs.

We have two HP Ultra Mini PC 800 G3 DM Intel i5-6500T PCs. These little machines work great and boot up very quickly too.

PCs For People is the non-profit vendor i bought it from.  They cater to other non-profits and people with limited incomes and they get stuff donated to them that they resale.  I got a great price so i won't complain about not getting one like you did.  I had a pc with a 2400g before and it def does some gaming.  I bought this with the intent to not game and have a tiny dual monitor setup for writing.  I have some old 1280x1024 monitors i'm using with it.  I sold my gaming pc last night to a man who wanted something inexpensive for his 11 yr old i guess for fortnite.  He got 32 gigs of ram, a ryzen 5 4500 and an rx570 for 200$ and showed up at 10pm to surprise his child today.  Win-win for everyone.  Spending money on gaming isnt condusive to takling care of my cats and i feed 25+ a day on my limited income.  cats b4 games i guess.

Yup, I also had a couple of i5 ones, perfect for KODI and serve-the-home duties; pretty much for everything except gaming.
