I couldn't unscrew all the screws on the platter cause I stripped 2 of em. So I decided a Hammer would do the job LOL.

Notice the Logic board. Hamemred away at it... Those chips were pretty strong. Destroyed the contact points where it contacts the HDD motor (4 pins with a plastic backing)...

I didn't mess with the scanner today.. Maybe tomorrow with an air rifle LOL

Do you dislike AMD? I'm confused as to why you wasted a WORKING computer. I would have rather given it away to someone in need... no offense AT ALL, honest. I'm confused... unless, it stopped working?

Please read the thread, there's been enough fuss on that matter already.

That was a dead set that Gautam sent him, Read the whole thread.

It hit 2.7ghz, gautam said. Gautam sent him the rig, dead, and then he torched it.
 
I am guilty of breaking working hardware. Everything in my pictures were working perfectly prior to the fire. It makes it more satisfying when it did work. Now they can rest in piece(s).

AMD makes one tough CPU. I was going to burn my old 2400+, but I pulled out the Duron 900 instead.

SolidxSnake: Love the torched HDD pic...I'm saving that one :D . I'm looking forward to your napalm too.


you have no clue how bad everything smelled after... I tried putting that hard drive in a plastic bag. melted right through. I couldn't even hold the drive, had to like, put my fingers to one side, and then thrust it, flipping it in air... eventually, I got it in a backpack lmao...

gonna try to make some napalm soon, dunno where to explode it though

Make sure you have QuickTime installed to watch the vid clips :)

The fire gotta kinda out of hand otherwise the clips would have been longer :( R.I.P. socks :(

I have no idea what kind of RAM it was i just got it out of some computer my dad gave me :)


LMFAO thats sweet,

you can't just get a fire goin, you have to feed it.

with WHITE GAS

but seriously, don't use white gas. my friend had a campfire goin, around 2ft in diameter, his dad was bored, so he threw in a 1/2 cup of white gas, the thing grew to at least 4-5ft in diameter and around 5-6 ft high... its like jet fuel LMAO

If any1 can send me a spare microwave, nothing special, I'll nuke a dead processor, and in the process, blow up the microwave LMAO
