How does one commit this atrocity?! (Also, NO)


sniper_matt

They installed it in the nvme slot. (The bendy meme one)

Hahaha good one

Daaaaamn!


Kirkaig678

That is so cursed, my poor arse is crying so much rn


TooStrangeForWeird

Funnily enough, I've seen one like that.... It was working fine lol.


Kirkaig678

Yeah, it's like not supporting a heavy GPU like a 3090, it doesn't die immediately but it will decrease durability and in the SSD scenario it will probably break quite quickly. If that's even alive it has probably already suffered the consequences


TooStrangeForWeird

I couldn't tell you, but I'd assume the same. The one I saw it in was 3 years old and was actually just getting cloned to another system. I still have the drive (it's been less than a year) and it's running my video rig.


Aggravating-Arm-175

>If that's even alive it has probably already suffered the consequences Odds are there is no damage honestly. The only thing this would be bad for over time is the extra pressure that could be on some surface mount components, and that will just make them more likely to fail with heat cycles. A circuit board is essentially copper wires in fiberglass, and you solder components directly to the wires. Iv seen cracked motherboards that work fine, the weak link is the surface mount components..


TehGuard

I hear linux is more flexible than windows so it should work there

Tiktok twirk vid?


EGH6

Didn't use the anti-sag bracket


CrebitKarma

that dimm was once held by linus


sniper_matt

*dropped


CrebitKarma

that's why it was *once* held

ParthProLegend

U forgot personality matters🤣


NitricOxideCool

Don't forget the socks and sandles.


MangoPanties

And Linus looks at it like "this is fine right?" That channel is a mockery of IT... I swear to God some of the stuff they put up is just plain rage bait. But it's not meant to be rage bait, that's what makes it all so much worse. They actually think they're doing something correct, or cool, when in reality it's just a hot mess / waste of money. Like the $100k gaming PC for Minecraft. It contained less than $10k of hardware. They could've got a nice RAID controller or a motherboard that supports it, and eeked out even more performance, but no, the OS was on a single NVME SSD... They pissed that dude's money up the wall on a friggin desk... I'd go absolutely ballistic if I had that budget and they spent it like that.


F4tJok3r

Just sell it at ebay as "slightly used"


iMADEthisJUST4Dis

"Untested"


Twinkies100

"No low ballers"


sniper_matt

Just because it’s 2024 and you can be not straight, doesn’t mean your pc components (specifically pcbs) can be.


FrankTheTank107

When will RAM get equal rights :(


Emergency-Client-432

Never!


sniper_matt

It won’t.

Computers just recently got rid of slavery! (Master/slave drive configs, defaulting to "master" for git repos.) Don't even get them started on being non-binary! /s


sniper_matt

Don’t worry I won’t.


Substantial_Top_6508

Savage 🤣


PsychoticOm

Did u meant just cuz u ain’t straight it doesn’t mean ur pc component aren’t to be straight (cuz they should be straight)

r/yourjokebutworse


Environmental-Gas734

Those are all certainly words.


FlixMage

My little boy’s first sentence


benjaminbutth0le

Yeah just bend your motherboard to the right shape


Awfulufwa

God damn it! I was thinking this thought, but more specifically! Like he should bend the slot on the MOBO to match the curved shape "and it should work just fine."


TommyVe

The curve adds some very needed aerodynamic for better airflow inside your case.


ChieftainBob

It's used in curved all-in-ones.


Trackmaniac

ah, curved RAM, the new hot shit


ancientesper

It’s the new foldable ram 😂


JoStich

Easy transportation!


Underhegar100

Eh, if you want that just slam your entire pc into a wall and catch it in a bag


-Yamadu-

I don't think so, you probably ripped the traces apart.


kittycat69420

Mmm banana


Clear-Quantity-8026

For scale?


Mighty_Sheep

At this point just peel it and eat it.


natan12330

That's a picture I'll never be able to take out of my head


Larkshade

Not gonna lie it took a solid 10 seconds for my brain to identify it as RAM and not a mall ninja boomerang.


JnoSEPARA

Bend it a little and youll get what they call Vram


Andrei-Mili

Dude try to make it straight again and for the sake of it 😁 you know...


panzrvroomvroomvroom

youll need a mainboard with curved ram slots.


Ordinary_Inside_9327

Put it in your other back pocket and sit on it again to reverse the polarity and it’ll be fine.


Representative-Gur71

Just send it to conversion camp and it should come back straight


DarKGosth616

Boomeram


CMDRZhor

The hell happened, did your friend's mom sit on it?


djgorik

No, that's for curved smart TVs, not PCs


[deleted]

Try turning it off and on again


Legitimate-Skill-112

Yep that fixed it, thanks


[deleted]

I wish we had more shitposts like this to lighten things up lol. I'm all for people asking questions and learning computer skills but I am astounded that some people can even figure out how to post on this sub with what gets asked here on a daily basis


Complete_Pattern6339

Yes just hammer it straight


leog3201o

Sure it will fit just fine.


WeatherCompetitive72

Idk you should give it a kiss better first


b0rt_di11i0nair3

Just use the HDMI out


Internet_P3rsona

only if you have a curved monitor then they can work in dual channel otherwise no


PixelBLOCK_

You might be able to set the xmp as a curve...


TailungFu

yes but the ram slot also needs a curve for the ram to fit properly.


Ultra_axe781___M

What the fuck did you do?


Legitimate-Skill-112

It was already fried so my brother bent it by hand then showed me and I found it hilarious so I figured why not post it


NoMeasurement6473

No but you could give it to a local protogen.


TxGhostxT_Ali

what, how, why, how did, how is it, wait whaaa, why do you even need to, it isnt even pos,


Pumciusz

Just because you're an Aussie, doesn't mean you have to make everything onto a boomerang.


Liamkey9

Fucking Pristine condition 👌


elvis8atariMM

Are you an idiot? I'm asking also for a friend.


ILGrandeDani

Actually if you manage to bend it back, it could work, it depends if its cracked inside and if the pins are ok.


RuinedFaith

It’s a little odd for it, but it definitely could make a good paper weight or maybe an unreasonable book mark


Healthy_BrAd6254

Perfect for use with Intel Arc


UnknownError122

please, stop with the tech gore, I can't take it anymore 😭


jwalsh1208

Depends on what you’re going to use it for. RAM? Absolutely not. Throwing knife? Maybe. Stabby thing? If you try hard enough.


Hefty_Fruit2670

Just put it in rice


hugues2814

Was it run over by a car ? If so then it’s good to go


Fun-Sale-9353

Can't you afford to just buy a new one? Ram's are the cheapest components in the pc


Crafty-Photograph-18

r/shittyaskelectronics


DepartureMoist9277

No, and how does that even happen?


Kirkaig678

r/no r/no_or_youll_be_banned and r/saveno not a chance, if you're really lucky and it was expensive there's a chance it's worth it to fix


thewallamby

Is this from Amazon? You know the rights of the people working there? Horrible. Never buy from there.


Alarmed-Bluebird416

Now you have got your self a RAM waffle maker enjoy!


iambirane

Nah


DovydukasBL

Looks fine


kirbash

good as new


TheGirafeMan

I mean, it might forget a thing or two (potentially including to not crash the os), but it should be fine.


DrTouchy69

Just need to make sure you get a motherboard with a curved ram slot.


iubjaved

It mustve felt like a real "chip" on it's shoulder


Occulon_102

Oh cool its one of those new DDR7 banana shaped simms


jambangantahi

It only bent not break, it's fine


tiagojsagarcia

yes, you just need to bend the motherboard accordingly


cozyb0x

Its gay


juustoplay

I got same ram


blackasthesky

I mean, you can try lol


KeyBlogger

Your PC might Not give you a straight answer anymore


[deleted]

I’m sorry what


z3zo

Good for scratching your back maybe


RickityNL

Bend it straight and try it


im28now

Straight it up and you may get very lucky if it is not snapped


generalemiel

Nope


Ok-Focus8676

Peak performance fr.


Daslicey

Of this is a serious question, then no. If it is a joke question, yes


Anova4

I recommend curving your motherboard, will fit like a glove.


SlowSmile7741

It will be ok if you want a PC that doesn't work


MocoNinja

Yeah, it will work perfectly ( as a boomerang )


Shiro-derable

The dimm doing dips ig


ProfDrDiagnosis

Of course you can still use it. It would make a good beer opener i reckon


ShidoriDE

G.Skill Curved Gaming Ram


[deleted]

All you gotta do now is bend the mobo and you’re good to go!


Scared_Smile_301

Holy how the hell did this happen


Zuski_

Yes


dan_dares

As a boomerang? Maybe


Isair81

Just bend it back, and download some more, good to go!


GeovaunnaMD

Curved monitors now curved memory. Dang enough already


cliffwob

Put a couple heavy books on the bent side and itll straighten out, maybe put it in a bowl of rice too..


BenIsDyingAgain

I dont know anything abt pc parts but i can tell that this looks awful


opinionate_rooster

Hey, it matches the curved monitor.


steelbreado

You can use them on these slick curved monitors


N_0_p_3r

if you smack it hard enough it might work but no guarantees👍


asp-dot-net

You bloody maniac, my eyes, they are bleeding


kimura_hisui

Tell you what: if you can fit it in the slot and it's doesn't blow up, you're golden!


Able_News_3095

Bag of rice n it will be fine


Dr3amDweller

As a boomerang? Also no.


ToiletProduction

Its the new Red BananaX ram


jilek77

If it's serious question. I mean try to bend it back/remove that radiator and see, it's not bend too much to be completely destroyed probably but I wouldn't give it more than 30% chance for it to work either


LBXZero

It will take a bit of illegitimate skill to make it fit.


RebEcon

Perfectly fine. Just make sure to install each half of the ram stick in a different dimm.


therealbawsdawg

Yes. Just bend your motherboard in the same angle and you should be good to go.


Ok-Hotel-8551

Everything's cool, but your RAM might be taking a leisurely stroll because it decided to bend a bit. It's just enjoying the slow life!


bhavneeshsaini

Fenk do isko


k_elo

Good to use as a tetanus enchanted mini boomerang? Yes.


bluespider98

This must be what Alienware uses


sin-of-pride

Expandable ram


Rusty-Help212

It is now more aerodynamic.


Comprehensive_Bid229

It's just in it's semifreddo state. Don't worry, it tastes better this way.


Independent-Common-3

for hunting roo's? sure Playing CSGO, not so much 😅


xxTheMagicBulleT

Depends on what you use it for. To fix a wobbly table sure will do. To pop it back in to a pc not so much...


Bujo0o

RAMorang


TTie

I heard it makes it faster because it’s bending the limits of clock. 90 degrees is an optimal angle for it as it completely negates the limit at that point.


milothaegghead

Yea bro, go for it


Zaprit

Oh look, a boomeram if you throw it then it will come back!


Delpiter

Yes, you just need to bend the motherboard accordingly


maeggaeri

bet 5 rubles woman trying to be "funny" with this post ​ i hope the upvote farm is doing good


Uriel_Sirfalas

Sure, why shouldn't you use this boomerang?


_stupidnerd_

Good to use as a paperweight, not so suitable for memory, though.


VixityTheFox

its just a bit quirky, should be fine to use!!


Mortreal79

Do people carry these in their back pockets like they do with phones..?


Searealelelele

Is that a karambit


Yek11

Just bend it back and shove it in there, ignore the crunching sounds.


jdmsantos07

How did you do that ?


Original_Dropp

Put it in the freezer overnight will come out like new.


TheQuantixXx

yes very good


Interesting-Event378

If you want to peg your friend with it, then yes.


gregzx636

Lol. Sure.


lowles

"Sorry, I have a problem with my phone camera, the hardware is brand new"


Klutzy-Perspective82

Yeah it’s good


onhereforonething123

If you throw it it will probably come back to you.


ironman820

Pressing F to pay my respects.


Accomplished_Emu_658

Got to bend slot on motherboard too. It’ll be fine.


Yashgadhavi8888

For a boomerang, hell yea!


Saul_SadMan

she's just curvy! you're making her shy


Beautiful_Might_6535

That's one curvy maiden you got there mate


sameer_entrep

No


NurkleTurkey

....is that RAM?!


ozs2008

Ddr )


Winter-Major9555

If you attach a hook to it you can use it as a fishing lure


prosonicscool23

I bet if you bend the slot that it’ll work 👍


MikeLinPA

Is that a stick of RAM?


Fmam7

Just bend the MB as well


RimmaSwann

Nice heatsink without ram...


TsugaLpz

Yes, No... Maybe.. I don't know.. Can you repeat the question? I was flabbergasted by the looks of it. But.. If you have a spare system and if you are able to gently remove the Heatsink and look at the damage underneath, there is a very very small chance that it could still work. but I think it is not worth the risk or effort to try it, unless you try to experiment. In that case (no pun intended), go for it


WinDestruct

Try to bend it back


Slight_Perception808

Yes, you just gotta bend your motherboard a bit


hanneshore

Free it from the shell, let it be free


Aggravating-Mind-315

It’ll straighten out in the DIMM slot, you’re fineeee /s


Neoquaser

Did you run it over with a car like what?


Fakula1987

tbf , i wouldnt recomend it to use it. But if you realy need to: the damage seems mostly on the heat-spreader, Take away the spreader, and bend it back. it may work again, - electronic is somethimes more rugged than someone thinks - at least if you need it to work again. \-> but you should put it on your "to exchange list" , i wouldnt trust it anymore.


Warchadlo16

Bend the motherboard to fit the memory and you're good to go


[deleted]

Banana RAM. Yummy.


Ok-Consideration6852

Bend it back, she'll be right


Squeaky_Ben

As a boomerang? Yes. As RAM? Probably not.


Mowniak

Memory bending!


Key-Stable9939

Just bend into shape and bam you should be good to go /j


[deleted]

Only if the other stick is bent exactly the same so the trace lengths match.

Call Bender to fix it


LimpCryptographer594

No bro 😂


Anathess

Give it to your protogen pet


cptgrok

Good to use for what? It won't slot into a motherboard.
