Fucking hell.

Yeah you either buy the parts from Dell and pay a fat premium or get them secondhand off of places like ebay and hope they work.

Man, that sucks. Who hasn't been there, where something that you were planning goes south in the most catastophic way and you're just left there holding the pieces. Sorry, Pippa :pippasadl:

Bullshit, if it's proprietary it's probably just connectors, clip the cords and resolder or recrimp.

Are you really going to try to explain to Sister Rabbit how to make her own ATX-to-8-pin-Dell adapter?

The funny thing to me is that it is very easily within her fanbase's capabilities to crowdfund and assemble for her an absolute beast of a computer with proper cooling, filters for pet hair, etc. But even filtering it through Phase corporate there's no way she would (or should) trust such a machine.

Mobo and PSU are weird Dell proprietary shit IIRC. Mobo also has mounts that don't match up with a regular case.

A good and honest solution to be fair.

If the pinouts are the same then you can run cords.

Reverse engineering pin layouts is a pain in the ass and making a mistake means frying whatever you are trying to get powered. And don't just think all connectors by Dell are they same, they will literally change pin layouts between years even with the same connectors. HP does the fucking same thing for their parts if you ever worked on any office computers.
Also she doesn't have a multimeter or a soldering iron to even do this.

No one! Tonight is a night of grieving, for I miss Pippa.

This might be a hot take, but I rather enjoy Mint after giving her a try :mintcrazy:

Instead of rushing out to buy another prebuilt that will die around the same time next year just so she can still stream tomorrow, she should take time to build a computer that will actually last made of good components.
