This was a major rebuild.. only because this is the first one I remember that has a floppy drive connection on the motherboard.
Look at this hot mess… we are going to update the components and clean it up.
FDD!?! First one of these I have seen in this department except some of the units we have in-store.
Here are the parts we are replacing. PSU, GPU, Motherboard including RAM and CPU, I should have got the part numbers of what I are replacing. I know it is an old AMD part with DDR3.
Here are the parts were are installing. Lots of bling with the RGB PSU and RAM.
CPU: Intel Core i5-9600K
PSU: Thermatake Smart Pro RGB 750W
RAM: 32Gb Corsair Vengeance RGB
Motherboard: MSi MPG Z390 Gaming Plus
Unboxing and part installation.
Packed to the brim with MSi goodness!
Motherboard removed from box.
CPU installed…
RAM installed.
Setup for a POST test. No cooler because it will be liquid cooler.
POST test successful.
Apparently, the motherboard is installed. This is one of my best cable management jobs.
Clean install. Customer will be happy.
All on and lit up.
This was a fun rebuild. The performance difference will bet amazing!
