When was the last time you check your Aircond cabin filter?

I made the habit of changing the cabin filter every year ever since I use Hyundai Matrix. Is cheap RM55 only..so its a small investment for a better quality air. Same goes to my Hyundai Elantra X20...its already more than 1 year now..so I decided to check the condition of the filter...my surprised..the filter is different than my Matrix.... its smaller and have 2pcs.

Lowered the gloved compartment and you will find this cover and removed them

This is how dirty it is....


Compare with the new filter..... even my 2 year old girl can tell its dirty.. so better change them.

For a mere RM75.00...its a small investment rather than I get sick inhaling from a dirty air filter.

Do take note, other than for health, it also good for your aircond system. Replacement of the filter will provide cleaner air and less likely the cooling coil will get dirty over the years of usage. Once the cooling coil get dirty due to poor maintenance..no matter how many time you change the cabin filter..the cooling effect will be very poor. So do take the initiative to change the cabin filter before all this problem start to happen.

My new CPU!!

Yes...all these while I have been using my 8 year old Fujitsu notebook for browsing, photo editing,burning cdr, even connected with external dvd writer and external 19" lcd monitor..consider 100 % utilised. The power suply was never switch off for more than 2 years...anyway its still tough!

So I decided, its time for the notebook to give it a rest. I save some cost on the CPU as I have my own internal dvd drive,160Gb Sata hardisk, 19"lcd monitor, keyboard, mouse, external dvd writer and an original Window XP Home.

The new parts purchase :

Intel Core 2 Duo E7400

3Gb DDR3 ram 1333Mhz

Asus P5Q Motherboard

Additional 500Gb sata hardisk

650W power supply

MSI 9800GT with 512Mb DDR3

ProLogic cassing

Total cost : RM1850.00

With this new system...I can do photo editing much faster and play those 1Gb high intensive PC games at ease.
