    unknown566 got a reaction from Kuzma in Can you wash a graphics card?   
    I would do it. Curiosity kills the cat. And it makes for a neat little experimentation.
     
    (also teaches you to be patient and careful)
     
    edit: (here's a tip. you could, after washing, put it in a container of rice.. completely covering it. it helps to absorb any moisture, but I don't recommend eating the rice after that)

    i wonder why so many people say things like short out the circuit. that only happens when you have something to conduct. the guy's not an idiot who would wash his graphic cards while there is a power source supplying it with electricity = =.
    (edit: unless it has it's own power source, you would likely damage the power source than the circuit. Then you would have to change the power source, for example an internal battery in mouse, etc.)
    (2nd edit: If you are going to wash it, I suggest buying distilled water (PURE water). Don't use tap water.)

    unknown566 reacted to TechFan@ic in AMD Never Settle Bundle Coming To CPUs & APUs.   
    The Never Settle bundle has been great for both AMD & gamers on the GPU side, you buy a graphics card & you get a bunch of AAA games for free with your purchase, gamers get more value out of their purchases & AMD sells more cards.

    Apparently the Never Settle campaign has been so successful for AMD it's now expanding it to its CPU side as well.

    Buy any one of these processors on newegg.com & you will get Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon & Simcity for free.

    So, when my Google controlled car hits another Google controlled car do we sue Google for damages against themselves, with Google insurance using the Google traffic accident app?

    So, there was a Nvidia sponsored contest that happened in Bangkok, Thailand. I saw the photos and thought that it would be a shame to not share them. Amazing builds and cable management.
