As a car repairman for years, when I see signs of a car being flooded, I beg the owner to run away from the car. Cars are built with computer systems and have the voltages you'd expect in a computer a lot. A car flooded, could be fine 6 months, a year, start to have issues, until it's an endless money pit after a flood. A computer, who's power supply that could start to rust and get high resistance somewhere... those high resistances are probably what fry so many strange things on a flooded car, but a computer is built less protected than a car from elements in design. I suspect something would just fry, more so even than flooded car components. I woke up really early before typing this, sorry if there are any typo's...

As a former student worker that worked with hardware for university and now, a web app developer that a lot of times touches the application stack on our servers, I LOVE the series. You started the series screwing every motherboard you think would work but end up not working. The latest season show that you've learned to test the motherboard, cpu, and ram together first to boot on top of a box. I love that you've learned a lot as time went on and even used that PSU tester from the get go. Even when I have a new build, I always test the three and plugged in to PSU before screwing things in, just so I know power goes through motherboard, then I plug in gpu just to see if the entire system posts. When our main hardware IT guy for our machines told me about that PSU tester, my jaw dropped and wished I had that kind of tester back then. And even with multimeter and reference to check the rails, it's still hard to know if you're getting clean power. PS. Hot tip if you don't want to waste too much thermal paste and save some time, you can test to post a CPU even when you place an air cooler that has a flat plate on top of the cpu even without screwing in and without thermal paste just to test to post. The contact of the air cooler is good enough to at least keep CPU temp not crazy while idled on BIOS. It can end up with tiny scratch on the cpu but is worth the savings especially if you ended up testing more than one cpu. But disclaimer, I've never tried it with CPUs that run more than 150 Watts. Or if you wanna be lazy, keep reusing the same paste (except if really old and crusty) until you know you're gonna be finally screwing in the cooler so you can save some time on cleaning paste over and over. PPS. Now that you have a NAS rack server setup. Next thing you gotta learn is setup your own VPN at home to make all that footage accessible everywhere for yourself. Either set it up at router level with port forwarding, or use open VPN. You're gonna end up learning about networking yourself too.
@tradingnichols22557 ай бұрын
They Epyc's I built were a PIA. Let me tell you. I reused paste like crazy because they're just so big. I've actually tried quite hard to pick up what Greg uses as a PSU tester. No success yet. If you know where to look or what keywords to use to find one... I'd appreciate it! Yes, I'm right there with you. I need to setup port forwarding or a VPN. Been aware for a while it's what I need to learn/build out next.

@mechanicallycreative97887 ай бұрын
It likely didn't overflow how you imagined. In order for turd water to overflow you'd have to have a plugged toilet and a failed flapper. Otherwise any water that goes into the toilet from a leaking flapper simply continously fills the toilet past the p trap and down the drain. The more likely failure was a fill valve that ran nonstop and overflowed from the tank of the toilet. One requires two failures the other only requires one.

IMPORTANT: Electronics that have gotten wet should work again just fine once they are dry, HOWEVER please do note that if the electronics in question have been wet/damp for more than a couple hours, it is quite possible that an early stage of corrosion has started. Once that has begun, it's going to get worse over time and cause trouble eventually. Therefore I would never re-use a power supply that has been through that. Any parts you do decide to use again, you should completely disassemble, carefully blow dry and visually inspect for any early signs of corrosion. Even if all seems fine, it's possible that somewhere you can't see (e.g. below a chip, inside a connector) some corrosion has begun, which could cause a connection to fail or to bridge with another connection some day, which could possibly damage itself or other parts. So, replace at least the PSU and realize that any once-wet parts might go bad in the future.

The probable scenario is that the auto water level arm/valve went out and the tank over filled and started flooding the house. It would have been very slow that source is not like a open hose. That in mind the amount needed to start filling a residence would have been over a couple days. Odds are the water didn't get over a few inches deep as it would have started leaving under the entry doors. The water from this area of the toilet is clean water not sewage. All precautions are to be taken anyway.

Boards can be smeared in goo used for LN2 overclocking, but when they're submerged into alcohol and inside a sonic cleaner they come out functioning again just great.

Have to say, it's easy to say put your desktop on a desk, but a lot of people (myself included) have no choice due to lack of space. I don't have a proper desk due to space and when I had a smaller monitor my PC was on the "desk" space next to the monitor. But when I upgraded the monitor I no longer had space for the PC as it is a full sized ATX case. As I didn't have space for one desk, I certainly do not have space for a second. Sadly not all of us are blessed with masses of space. I am not prone to flooding, but I do hate having my PC on the floor as its a massive dust magnet down there, so I get what you are saying 100%, but if I want the best out of my PC it has to sit on the floor.

If I didn't see anything else, clean, replace power supply and power it up. Optional: There is one fan that is at the bottom, I'd probably test it and replace if needed ....

First and foremost, nice Creed shirt Greg! It's awesome that they're back together again, looking healthy and sound good. That aside, at the beginning of the video you had mentioned the warranty. It may or may not have been your intention, or maybe I took i the wrong way but it almost seemed like you implied that the warranty would have covered this machine had it not been expired. To the best of my knowledge, most places don't cover physical or liquid damage under the warranty. Am I missing something here?

Yes, an extended warranty should, but not the initial warranty, not for a flood.

Good advice, my PC is on the desk, never thought about a flood in that way, since I'm on the second floor.

is it okay to use a vacuum to clean a pc or blower is much better?
