I probably spend more time procrastinating about playing videogames than actually playing them. Once I get into them, I still have lots of fun, but that paradigm shift into "gaming mode" just brings out the procratinator in me.

I blew up a PSU once by hitting the voltage switch on the back, hoping it would fix an issue with audio in Carmageddon...

 

I got my parents to buy a laptop for school, purposely with no GPU so I would concentrate on school more, I am a gamer...

I use a TV as a monitor, I'm lazy with cable management (I like it to be clean and good for airflow, but not OTT) and I only use XTU for stress testing...

1) #Windows8.1MasterRace.

2) I don't know who Gaben is (or more precisely, why he matters), and at this point I'm afraid to ask.

3) If given a choice between PC and console gaming, I will choose PS4 10 times out of 10.

4) I actually think that EA did a good job on Simcity 2013, which is the only PC game I like.

I was once a console gamer, I don't like Corsair cases, and I won't buy Asus products because of their recent rampant QC issues and fear of their support ;-;
