You think we don't already have one?  Do you think were amateurs here?

How else are we supposed to make sure that 12VHPWR connector is plugged in?

Dead-blow hammers are even better whacky sticks. They hit and shove instead of bouncing!

That is pretty cool. Thank you for expanding my knowledge today. I always thought lead-acid was... just lead and acid. now I have a new contender for batteries to use in my server rack UPS build (looking for something to hold a considerable amount of charge in the bottom of my server rack made from commodity off the shelf parts for ease of maintenance).

it like most battery in tech now.

are lith-polymer

There we go, NOW we're getting somewhere.

 

 

This is about what I was expecting more or less.

 

So, how many multitudes more are others getting. Am I in last place yet?

I like how you started at 10M, dropped to 0 then just flew past 80M.

Yeah I've done quite a lot of hardware gymnastics and musical GPU relocating this month.  Then it was just down to the weather getting cold enough to increase how many machines I could fold with.

 

This is all perfectly normal, nothing to see here:

Well It looks like I am officially done. I won't be able to recover from the PSU dying as it  took out the motherboard and cpu with it.

That's harsh, it boggles my mind why PSUs don't have secondary protection on their outputs to prevent that from happening.

And I thought my power supply dying on me was bad. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thanks, I'm just glad it didn't take any of the 4090's

Makes me kinda feel vindicated in spreading my GPUs across as many unique PCs as possible, as that is truly a horrifying thought.

You don't spend that kind of money and not expect them to last a long and gruelling life.

I tend to prefer Scan, but generally will go whichever is best value for what I'm looking for.

I mean my latest 4090 was from Very of all places, they very briefly had it in stock and how could I say no with 12 months interest free and it actually wasn't overpriced for once?

DARN IT!!!!! I was just under 12k points from getting a 3 MPPD score on record with my non-overclocked laptop GPU

 

I'll most likely overclock it in the morning (in reference to The Princess Bride).
