00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.320
Ready for a fun little Floatplane exclusive? We had a really old plastic pushpin fall off of a chipset heat sink,

00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:10.400
so now it's only held on by these two spring-loaded...

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:18.720
So now it's only held on... Here, get a close-up of this. Yeah, yeah, on it. Okay, they got one. Perfect.

00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:25.520
Okay, and then back to the wide. Okay, and back to you. Yeah. So now it's only held on by these two spring-loaded pushpins up here,

00:00:25.520 --> 00:00:29.760
but of course, the average person is not likely to have a bunch of these pushpins

00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.000
lying around, so whatever shall we do?

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:38.240
Ha! First thing we're going to need is some thermal compound,

00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.360
because I couldn't help noticing that the thermal compound down there is

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.760
dried to all hell. I'm not going to bother to do a good job of this,

00:00:45.760 --> 00:00:49.520
but I'm at least going to put some glue up on them. Yeah, for sure.

00:00:50.720 --> 00:00:59.520
You ready? And ready, go for it. Well, yeah, you're not going to see this.

00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:04.320
Beautiful. Okay. Okay, back to you.

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:06.560
Yeah, perfect. Perfect.

00:01:07.600 --> 00:01:08.160
Flawless.

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:15.680
The RB. Okay, couldn't... Yeah, you're back rolling again.

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:19.760
Next we'll need some ordinary zip ties.

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:24.800
Now the magic happens.

00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:28.880
Step one, stick the zip tie through the hole.

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:34.480
Step two, get another zip tie.

00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:44.960
Step three. Step three, pull said zip tie.

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:54.720
All right, step four.

00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:00.000
Do not scratch any of the traces on this motherboard, because there is no way to replace it.

00:02:04.080 --> 00:02:07.280
Step five, do it again four more times.

00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:10.960
I don't know if I'm going to bother doing all the holes, but I'll do some of them.

00:02:12.320 --> 00:02:17.360
Okay, here, do you want to get close? Yeah, I'm grabbing them now. And now you're ready.

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:18.880
And go for it, yeah.

00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:21.040
Sweet.

00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:27.840
Man, what they used to make blue, huh? Blue motherboards.

00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:41.120
And there you go. I did almost all four of them, and now it doesn't move anymore.

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.440
Yay, oh, that's a piece of cardboard. Well, there's the back.

00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:55.040
Sweet, what a win. Hey, look, I got to take the W's where I can find them, okay?
