 Sharing it with fellow stranger tech ppl for no reason because all my friends don't know how to PC.

 

So here is my little story.

Completed my new build only 2 months ago and one week ago something terrible happened to my ram and caused a short on the motherboard.And i completely thought that everything got fried since nothing was turning on.

Specs are in my sig. You can see it's nothing special,just a decent 1200 euros pc but for me is very special since i was saving money for almost 1.5 years for this. (peasant college student).

 

So yeah, i was kinda depressed since it is very hard for me to get a new pc and i wouldn't settle for a stupid laptop and also because i hit the real lottery with my ivy-bridge i5(you know how hard it is to find a good overclocker).

I even started drinking for couple days lol.

 

And today,my local retailer called me and told me that CPU and GPU are totally fine.WOOT! Still waiting for motherboard confirmation but it's okay since i have an old one for a temporary solution.

 

I am a happy man again.

Kinda.

Well....

Shut up Spyros!

 

Do you have any stories that can somehow relate?
