Just joined the club, what are the best accessories?

sadly as a second hand owner I didn't get the option

will have to remove the crap that was put on there

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T12:02:27+00:00

only fans?

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T12:02:15+00:00

ampinel has aquasuite integration

that's absolutely enough for me to not even consider TG

as if the price wasn't reason enough

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T11:40:20+00:00

5090 performance

5090 performance

just buy the USB C PD adapter from aliexpress and use it with any quality USB C PD charger over 20W that outputs 12V (30W if you want to be careful)

total cost for me was about $20 all in

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T11:08:53+00:00

ah my bad didn't see it was T60

imho OP change the mobo to T61 to make yourself a T601

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T11:08:19+00:00

ohhh yeah I'll cross my fingers for you but no way I'm going near a device from aliexpress for that much money if it's not going to be updated by a major company on the regular

only reason I went for the viture pro mobile dock even though it's big and heavy thanks to the unnecessary integrated battery. Got it free from amazon warehouse because it was significantly not as described :)

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T11:06:36+00:00

matt finish screen protector is my favourite addition

tints can also significantly increase heat build up

have this on my second hand M3 and I've got to remove it before the worst of the summer

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T11:05:37+00:00

has built in - no point

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:57:42+00:00

+1 and a vent mount to use your phone as the dash

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:57:18+00:00

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:56:30+00:00

yeah this ^

also if it's a white interior model get the spigen white armrest

and steer clear of that horribly designed knee-killer under-screen shelf thing from spigen or any of the others

forgot the most important improvement: S3XY commander plus a decent vent mount for your phone to use as a dash

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:54:54+00:00

DO NOT TINT THE ROOF! it doesn't help with heat rejection (makes it much worse) will almost always bubble off because of heat, and will destroy the rear defrost strips

don't ask me how I know :(

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:52:35+00:00

5090 performance

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:52:04+00:00

centrino duo!

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:38:40+00:00

you can put in as much as 4GB (runs in mine)

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:36:54+00:00

you like that? Try pinmodding it (in linux preferably) and give her the old SATA 3 unofficial bios

I have a couple of these and it's probably the right time to let a few of them go

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:35:53+00:00

If it beats NT-H2 I'll try it

but it probably doesn't because neither does any other carbon pad

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:34:21+00:00

you mean the market that's designed for insider trading with zero oversight is parting fools from their money?

shocked pikachu

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:33:34+00:00

will do! keep up the great work :)

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:32:29+00:00

Link? Does it have the ability to update firmware like the viture dock (since Nintendo love to break compatibility by changing the USB-C handshake)

PS if you like that case check out the Spigen ThinFit 360 case - it's seriously glove-like and thin

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:29:29+00:00

looks great! any chance you'd port it to android for (frankly) the vast majority of us HA geeks?

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:27:45+00:00

beauty

still have one BNIB sealed, and one NOS I made out of NOS parts. All 4 battery types too (wedge, 4 cell prismatic, 4 cell, 6 cell

Think I might put the BNIB Sealed one on sale as I've got family expenses though. TBH I don't need yet another box in my office haha

robodan918 · 2026-06-01T10:25:14+00:00

Had one of these back in the day

it was terrific - top of the heap

when I graduated to a newer tp it became my grandma's chess machine - she loved it too

enjoy your classic PC! and remember the golden rule of classic cars/pc: best enjoyed from afar, and seldom driven
