I'm big into electronics and I've never smelled anything like this before. It's ridiculous lol.
the smell originates (ie, is strongest) towards the top where all the chipsets are (I believe).
I dare you to call Samsung and file a complaint about how your phone smells bad. I bet you they would promise a fix for that in an upcoming update, then deny that and say the smell was already fixed in the last update.
I'm the creator of this:
I rest my case. Heh.
Now that I'm sober I'm guessing "electro-static discharge"? If so, for which computer, and why would you say that?
Anyway, I have no idea why I drunkenly posted those pictures. I think it was to prove that I've been around electronics. Or something. I have no idea...
The cardboard box... box would have potential ESD problems becaues there is no grounded metal chasis for the components. All the guts could build up an electric charge and it wont get "drained" to ground since there is no grounded metal chasis its all connected too.
Secondly, your water cooled rig seems to be missing it RAM sticks .
Pretty cool tho, im a computer modder too, ive build a few dozen rigs in my day varying from plain to insain, but i guess that would be a different forum ><
That's absolutely ridiculous. All of it, actually.
1. So a computer in a plastic case is also at risk I guess? Or any case with rubber feet? Or any case sitting on a carpet? I guess my Captivate is also at risk of ESD because it sits on a table or my bed, or wherever instead of having direct contact with the ground.
The cardboard case worked fine. The only problem with it was the fire hazard risk. Otherwise it had zero problems to worry about.
2. The watercooled system had 2 sticks of ram in it. If you can't see it, it's purely by perspective. They're in there.
