Passive aggressive much, someone? Go read Twilight. This whole thread was mildly amusing until the end. While people say dumb things, I can't really put my heart behind a thread that mocks people with generally good intentions who are trying to help. The bit I quoted was downright bitchy though. You sir, earned one star from me. | ||

You sir, earned one star from me. You call it good intentions to give advice without having a clue what you're talking about in a way that has the potential to damage other people's expensive computers, or waste huge chunks of their time? That's as dumb as the stuff I'm mocking with this thread. As for being bitchy? I wouldn't call it any more so than what I was responding to, but at least you, unlike the person I was mocking there, had the balls to say something. The other person was just being a crybaby who couldn't handle getting publicly humiliated for being at best a jackass, and at worst a malicious poster. | ||

Are we allowed to add some "old posts"? There's a couple jewels from this Jan 2011 thread, discussing PSU requirements: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=186798¤tpage=2#34 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=186798¤tpage=3#57 Note that LorD_AreS's post is from Page 3, even though someone had already posted the "Load Power Consumption - Crysis" graph on Page 2, which clearly shows 389W system draw. | ||

Nice ones... PSU's always do turn into fun conversations. | ||

I feel like the Tech Support forums should redirect to Google until the user has passed a test certifying that they have tried Google already. If you want, I can dig through your post history tomorrow... I must agree, Tech Support needs some serious loving on the moderation... at least consistency, even if it continues to be too light. | ||

Yeah that was painful. It's amazing how many people think that just because it happens to be good for us that water can't harm anything. Even if you used distilled, filtered, really pure water, and got it 100% dry first, it can still cause oxidation and corrosion. Add in all the shit that comes out of the average faucet as far as mineral deposits, and you're setting yourself up for heat issues even if you don't directly fry it or damage it. Water, as it turns out, is one of nature's best corrosives... | ||
