Computer upgrade

Read Original

The article is a detailed personal account of upgrading a 5-year-old desktop PC. The author cites performance lag during development work (Neovim with Rust/Elixir LSPs) and a critical buildup of gunk in the liquid cooling loop as primary reasons. The upgrade includes a new AMD Ryzen 9 7950X CPU, ASRock motherboard, DDR5 RAM, and an NVMe SSD. A significant portion of the post focuses on the challenges and process of disassembling, cleaning, and rebuilding the custom water cooling loop.
