@mangeurdenuage what are you using for a compy rn

@icedquinn an old t510, otherwise I have my older desktop with a q9550 but the power consumption is much greater.

@icedquinn before migrating to my t510 I used an asus laptop I had bought in paris for 20 bucks, it's more recent than the t510 but the gpu died and I need to change it and I've been ultra lazy with bga soldering recently.

@mangeurdenuage @icedquinn I haven't attempted BGA soldering yet. I don't have the right tool for it to make myself comfortable with doing it. Surface mount and through hole components are pretty straight forward though.
