Antec Kuhler 920 cpu cooler. It came with my previous build and I was too broke to upgrade to a decent cooler or water loop. It looks so silly in my 900D >.< not cool at all.

Should be able to run that fairly quickly even though it is a single core Atom, the ones I've used seemed fairly quick though I wouldn't want to use it all day

I'm not sure if its the same thing but my lack of a soundcard is pretty embarrassing. That will be my next purchase once my rig is built.

I have... Two non-bluray cd drives in my computer.

 

TWO of them.

I can be a cynical a**hole at times. I apologize if I cause any offence at those time. I also occasionally have issues communicating my point. Extreme introversion + Photographic memory + Some other things.

There is a lot of "embarrassing" hardware in this thread that is standard fare.

Yea I don't see any of it as embarrassing. Just some useless stuff, like for some reason I still own not one... but two Iomega Zip drives! What possible use could I have for these? Do I throw em out? nope... I think I have a problem with hoarding tech.
