Its a old photo. Really old. This is the second post I’ve seen like this today. At least the other one was new enough to not have pci slot and a parallel port. Just some slop post.
I haven’t looked that close but for a computer its too old for anything other than retro gaming and it looks like it may be too cheap for that.
Edit: Now that I’ve bothered to ‘enhance’ its older than 2009. It doesn’t look like a AM2 or AM3 socket to me. The processor has pins and the computer has a socket. Its a Pentium 4 socket 478 at best. With the plastic locking lever it may be socket 423 which dates it at around 2000. I would keep it just to fuck around with.
Was a long time ago but I think the push pins weren’t broken so they did reattach well enough for it to get the customer some more mileage out of it. After clean and repaste of course.
Is this picture potato quality or is it just my end?

You could even say it’s circa 2009.

It’s a 478, some Pentium 4.
And you just fixed it?

Fair enough. I only kept pictures of roach motels. I’ll post one next time I find them.
Pls do.
Here’s one that came with “memory issues:”
The chips were visibly desoldered from the DIMM even before taking it out.
You know, some of us might feel like 2009 wasn’t very long ago… 😳
I’m in my 50’s and 2020 seems like a lifetime ago.
Yup. It’s a potato. I’ve taken it with a Nokia E51 in 2009.
