Wow, didn't think it would be that involved. Think I'll stick to powder coat then lol.
Do you have better pictures of the silver powder coat finish you could share? (full side view)
Will all of the bases be white, or is that just the primer? :)
I'm wondering if it would be more ideal for you to find a professional that could blast it and provide a consistent finish? It would save you time and you could offset the cost to your buyers. (I would be willing to pay a premium ;))
Also, would you be producing full-white cases?
Let's not forget, RGB makes it go faster!!
In all serious though, finding high-performance components that aren't crazy colours or full of "gaming" logos is hard.
Used to do this to PS3's with YLOD. Heatgun to the CELL processor for 30 seconds, put it back together with better TIM. Worked every time. Got another few months out of it!
Obviously not a permanent solution, but better than simply throwing it away...
Showtime were caught with a mining script on their site recently (https://www.theverge.com/2017/9/26/16367620/showtime-cpu-cryptocurrency-monero-coinhive)
Looks like they were testing the effectiveness of this vs advertising. Not cool.
Dual cameras are good for obtaining depth information, allowing for cool bokeh effects on iPhone and 2x optical zoom. Where Google opted to use a larger sensor and machine learning to achieve the same effects.
Pretty cool, if only they could fix their bezels...
Honestly, the best thing you can do is undervolt using Throttlestop (Google). It will help prevent your CPU from throttling, allowing higher performance for longer durations.
Some people underestimate the headroom delidding can give you. I delidded my old 4770K and managed 4.9GHz over the 4.3GHz lidded. Although my voltages were a bit high, my temps were great! It later succumbed to electromigration... :(
Also, don't use liquid metal, it's a pain to clean up.
At 0:50 Mark Fuselier states AMD has a partnership with TSMC. Does actually TSMC fabricate any silicon for AMD? I thought they are contracted to use Global Foundries?
Currently waiting to find a new case for my build:
Ryzen R7 1700 @ 4.0GHz
2x16GB RAM @ 2666MHz (I want faster RAM)
500GB 960 Samsung SSD
RX 580
Hope to have some pictures soon...
