    good, cheap, low? 100 watt cooler

    Worth a try will order brackets. T4 does fit just do not like fan air flow direction. May use the S524 Cooler Master Geminii I have.. Noctua are pricey.

    I'll try the AM2/AM3 cooler on another board. Bought Shapphire Pure Platinum A75 from a reviewer. I wonder if he modified clips?

    Anyone have experience with the lower end ryzens?

    There are Ryzen 2600g vs GT1030 comparisons. Mostly seems Ryzen has the edge. Unfortunately builds being compared use Intel G dual core CPUs. fwiw worth sounds like fun. Worst case, have to add video card. At that price video card is better. Still like the idea though just to..

    Trying to install Windows 7 on a 32 bit P4 system, keep running into roadblocks

    Do not know about file servers. Played with Linux 5-6 years ago. Do not know what they have now. Just like the idea of a P4 running, but.. there are limitations. Appolagies if my ignorance distracted you.

    good, cheap, low? 100 watt cooler

    Ah well fun in river city. Deep Cool Gammax is availanlable $16.95. Anyone know the height. Assume too tall. Gemini M4 IS $35, Gemini S524 $37. If you can fit S524 reviews seem to say avoid M4. Not sure where M5 fits? Newer model S524? So far looks best bet unless Antec SLK1650 allows T4...

    good, cheap, low? 100 watt cooler

    Years ago I bought some motherboards and APUs from a reviewer. never built them and I have parts. Except: I do not have the stock cooler for FM1 3870K. I have some AM2 and AM3 coolers that do not seem to want to fit. Is this correct? I have some Hyper 212 plus but these are too tall for cases...
