Re-cycle old electronics
June 21, 2018 by Jason Harris
Another load taken to the Jurien Bay CRC for e-waste recycling.
These should be recycled because they contain good stuff like gold, steel, copper, and zinc.
They should not end up in landfill because they contain bad stuff like lead, cadmium and mercury.

Latest Intel processors
May 7, 2018 by Jason Harris
The latest Intel Core processors have arrived at Jurien Bay Computer Services.
Unlike new generations of the past, Intel has gone beyond the usual incremental upgrade and made significant improvements in the Intel Core range. For example previous generations of the i5 processor had four independent processing cores. The new i5 now has six independent cores, which provides a significant increase in power. It's a bit like the difference between a four cylinder or six cylinder car.
| model | purpose | 7th gen | 8th gen |
|---|---|---|---|
| i3 | multi-tasking and business operations | 2 cores/4 threads | 4 cores/4 threads |
| i5 | superior performance and gaming | 4 cores/4 threads | 6 cores/6 threads |
| i7 | maximum performance and high-end gaming | 4 cores/4 threads | 6 cores/12 threads |
Now building desktop computers with these processors. Call for a discuss your needs or for a free quote.
Workshop static control
May 2, 2018 by Jason Harris
It is vital to adequately account for electrostatic discharge (ESD) when doing computer or laptop repair.
ESD does not always completely destroy a component, but can cause damage that may not show up until a year or more later.
When the computer starts freezing or blue screening and you put it down to a bad memory chip. It's just possible that chip was fine until it was mishandled.
Using static control procedures has been shown to reduce hardware failures and glitches by as much as 35%.
I have installed anti static bench matting and grounding so that the repairs I do and the computers I build last a long time.
