Computer Geeks Gush Over Old PC Hardware – Episode 2

Stephen Fung and Winston Chim have well over 25 years of knowledge and experience in the computer industry. But will they fix your computer for you? Probably not!

This episode of their podcast show talks about the past, present, and future of computers and PC Building. They go over all their favourite OG PC hardware of the past, from cases, motherboards, CPUs, RAM, VGA cards, cooling, peripherals, and more!

Stephen ran one of Canada’s largest independent tech websites, had a cameo in an NCIX Tech Tips video with Linus Sebastian from Linus Tech Tips, and was at one time the world’s fastest PC builder. Winston is an active computer tech journalist and reviewer, still in the mix of things with his own computer and tech website. He also fancies Canada Goose jackets.
