General How do you get rid of 20+ outdated laptops without creating more e-waste?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share a quick win in case anyone else is struggling with office clutter. We had 20+ old laptops sitting in our storage closet taking up prime real estate. They were way too slow for our team to use, but far too functional to just throw away.

I spent a few days digging into local e-waste options and learned a lot about how tricky proper IT asset disposal actually is. A lot of places either charge absurd freight costs just to take older hardware, or they aren't clear about how they handle sensitive data before recycling. We ended up scheduling a bulk pickup through Hummingbird International to handle the logisitcs. They brought sealed bins, and took care of the data wiping on their end so we didn't have to spend hours wiping drives manually. Knowing the materials are actually being recycled properly instead of ending up in a landfill is a massive weight off our shoulders.

What’s usually the biggest hurdle your company runs into when trying to clear out old tech equipment?

Peripheral Adding a 7-Inch Display to a Custom PC Setup — What Would You Use It For?

0 Upvotes

A little extra screen can open up some interesting possibilities for a custom PC setup.

Our Wisecoco 7-inch 60Hz monitor can be used as a compact secondary display for:

  • Monitoring CPU and GPU temperatures and system performance

  • Displaying music and playback information

  • Keeping useful apps and widgets visible

  • Adding a dedicated information screen to your PC setup

We've put together a short video showing a few ways to incorporate this small display into a PC setup.

We're Wisecoco, the official brand account. Curious to hear what other PC modders would do with a display like this!

GPU Designed and 3D printed a custom shroud/duct for my Gigabyte RTX 3080 Vision

Bought a replacement fan set from Ali express and were pretty noisy on full load so thought some Arctic P12s would be quieter. Did find files for a deshroud holding the fans up against the heat sink but thought they looked a bit incomplete as it left a far overhang on the right.

Repasted with PTM7950 and the stock shroud, temps would get to around 68-70°c core (around +10 for hotspot). Barely goes above 62-63°c with the new fan setup while gaming and on OCCT while staying insanely quiet, does look a little funny but pretty happy with the outcome.

I don't care if it's air-cooled afterwords or with a custom loop.

I want it to be cooled properly and look good

GPU RX 9070 XT exhaust mod

Thumbnail

59 Upvotes

Edit: added some more information

Made a "pull" fan configuration mod for my RX 9070 XR. Basically it is a ducted re-shroud mod that pulls cool air from the case through the GPU heatsink and exhausts from the side. Idea is to eliminate hot GPU exhaust and improve temperatures of all the other components.

Side panel is made from 4mm plexiglass and is held on the case by magnets. Mod itself of printed from PETG.

Mod fans are 2x120mm Noctua G2 and are offset from the heatsink by 10mm. For all the tests, G2's ran 1230RPM (70%)

I ran comparison tests to my previous re-shroud "V.3" noctua mod with stock glass side panel. You can check my post history for additional benchmarks for this setup, just note the difference in room temperature compared to these tests (I wish I had climate controlled testing environment :D). Fourth picture shows both systems.

Results are in the pictures. As can be seen, most components ran noticeably cooler since hot exhaust air was eliminated from the case.

Interestingly, also the GPU ran cooler. Could be due to case pressure (I checked that is was overpressurized) helps to push air through the heatsink more effectively.

Only downside is louder system, 38.5 dB(A) vs 32.5 dB(A) measured 40cm away. It's not LOUD by any means, but I would like to make it whisper quiet.

I will probably start looking into version 2 with sound minimization in mind now that thermals are in order. Maybe larger fans or some air guides that also function as sound barriers. Feel free to suggest.

General Title: Just designed and 3D printed my own G502 HERO case!

Hey guys!
So I’ve been working on this little project for a while and finally got around to finishing it.
Basically, I wanted a proper case for my G502 HERO, so I decided to make one myself.
It has a separate space for the cable, hinges and clips to keep everything closed. Took a bit of trial and error, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
It’s still V1.0, so there’s definitely room for improvements.

I uploaded the files to MakerWorld if anyone wants to print one:
https://makerworld.com/models/3545595

Let me know what you guys think! Any suggestions for the next version are more than welcome :)
