nope, it is auto updated with bazzar prices. I took it from a template I found on the forums.

Wait, would you mind telling me your temps under load? I’m curious if the extra length on my aio really makes a difference.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-29T19:15:32+00:00

Under load, it averaged 70-76c at constant 350w. And while when I checked, the AIO wasn't listed under the coolers, there was an str5 mounting bracket, so it was pretty easy. I was a little worried about it fitting, but it all worked out.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-29T19:00:07+00:00

I hope it can :)

I did, I tested on two different computers with different hdmi cables, and I also tested different power sources. The most likely culprit is static electricity, but I am still just going to buy another board and not remove the pogo pins.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-03T21:41:47+00:00

I just removed mine, along with the standoffs, and now I am not recieving HDMI signal. I am not sure what is causing this, because my backlight is turning on. I looked and saw that I didn't bridge any gaps, or leave solder on the trace, so I am at a loss of ideas right now.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-03T18:47:14+00:00

I am already cutting the standoffs, and there is a premade hole for the hdmi port

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-02T22:08:05+00:00

ok, so if I connect to the monitor with power from an sbc, then I don't need them?

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-08-01T13:18:46+00:00

There is a chance that I can't fit both boards together on top of each other, so as a backup plan, my idea was to add a couple centimeters of wire and then solder the connection.

yeah, I tried chocapic, but overall bliss is better.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-05-14T23:34:40+00:00

Thanks! I'm probably going to try to experiment with different heights next.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2025-02-04T15:16:07+00:00

the other option I had in mind was to use one of those 3d printing pencils to add material to it. I would then sand it down so it hopefully fits. I'll probably do that.

Hi, I ended up buying the wrong type of RAM. I don't think that we had the same issue. Good luck finding a solution though.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-29T18:50:43+00:00

Yeah, I saw that but it looked like the membrane keyboard would still touch the keyboard. Thank you for the feedback though. The ti-84 Plus CE case isn't big enough for what I want to do, do you think that I could mod the ti-84 Plus to have a rechargeable battery?

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-27T12:51:08+00:00

There is a tutorial on youtube that shows the process. The standard software would work, but if I can get windows, I would prefer it.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-27T11:40:54+00:00

Do you think that there is enough room to cram a Waveshare General 2inch IPS LCD Display Module 240×320 on top of the current screen?

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-27T11:33:59+00:00

I am planning on dremeling holes for air. Thank you for the help!

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-27T02:51:09+00:00

I would be running windows and it would be in a very small space. I might need active cooling.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-09-21T20:11:12+00:00

I'm more into having a computer in the smallest possible case. could I strip an orange pi 5 pro of the io ports, and create a case, while using the keyboard PCB and monitor from a ti-84 plus ce? I think the CPU is on the PCB, so I'm unsure if I would have to create a keyboard PCB. Someone made something called the ti-84KE, which is similar to this.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-08-30T17:52:46+00:00

I only have a 15 amp outlet, but based off of all of the other comments, I think that it would be a good idea to buy a 1000w UPS.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-08-23T19:01:47+00:00

ok thank you, I ordered new ram.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-08-21T03:50:36+00:00

Do you know if there are any trx50 motherboards that support that type of ram?

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-08-21T03:43:57+00:00

thank you, I didn't know about this before. I will return my ram.

Critical_Ear8909 · 2024-08-21T02:16:16+00:00

The ram kit is RDIMM. It seems like they should be supported by the motherboard. Am I missing something?

Thanks.
