@jespersh it has USB 3… LGA 1155... Sata 2... PCI X 3.
As it has an Power on Button I'd guess upper league.
Not THAT old... Just outdated. :-P -
depends. theoretically you can wash a mainboard.
the problem usually stems from the quality of the water...
distilled water - no problem.
calcified water - you'll be in trouble.
dishwasher... not sure if it would work.
hand. no problem.
you just need to let it dry very thoroughly. -
fx200095yHad to do that once, the cat peed on my computer and it smelled awful whenever it warmed up a bit. Worked like a charm and smelled like like lavender afterwards. -
Is that why mine isnt working, am a fuckin idiot, i put everything together without washing it.
Will it still work if i wash and then re assemble or should i just buy knew parts
Freckin hell man -
@IntrusionCM huh bever knew u could wash a mother board, me is surprised to find out
-
@FranzFerdinand Yes.
@molaram Let it dry thoroughly, at least 2-3 days. Water can evaporate... And your case isn't a vacuum, either.
And even if "some" water remains, destilled water has a pretty low conductivity.
Yes, there is a slight chance of things going wrong TM - like always. -
hjk10155645yAny kind of liquid is dangerous (even distilled pure h2o). It can activate the minerals that are already there and cause deterioration in the paths.
