The VT Boys are building a super computer

The VT Boys are building a supercomputer, this time it is Mr.Gadget turn, as almost four years ago Mr.Garfield did his build. As it was Mr.Gadget's birthday this month he ask if he can have a new processor and memory as his presents. VT Girl and Mr.Mac did not disappoint.


















Mr.Gadget came around for a sleepover and this gave him plenty of time to build his computer, and wow what a beast it is, it took him not much to put it all together and installing Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 took much longer, however ones it was all up and running the computer was really fast.

















The specs are AMD FX 8530 with Samsung EVO 850 SSD and WD Black HDD, 8Gb DDR 1600 memory, USB 3 and NVidia GS730 graphics card for now but the case is a real show stopper. We can say from here this was another successful build and I believe many will follow.




The VT Boys are joining the Air Cadets

The VT Boys are joining the Air Cadets in Cambridgeshire and Mr.Gadget is very proud, so he should be because this is no light task, you have to be very prompt and you have to make sure that you are in line with all your mates. Every week Mr.Gadget goes for training, how to march, to learn about airplanes and lots more other stuff he has not told me about.

One thing is sure, a few weeks ago, he had a parade in town and all when't well that day, please see picture below.
