I finally did

[realJSOP]

I also used to do water cooling and overclocking, but I came to my senses and scrapped all that. The power supply that powers my (5) hard drives also powered two water pumps, and a four additional 120mm more fans. One last thing, just because they CAN draw that much power, doesn't necessarily mean they do... :)

"Popping the cherry" is an expression used to indicate doing something for the first time. Although it is not necessarily polite it is also not usually vulgar. Although, I suppose using the phrase in the context of a dead baby joke would catupult it to beyond offensive and nearly obscene.

I would rather have more than I need than less. My current HP box which will shortly be converted to a linux box does not have enough juice to even add another HDD! It is pathetic.

80 columns meant higher resolution ascii porn (I've seen old school computer porn). I count that as graphics. ;)

You scrapped overclocking? Or is your computer a part of some exotic fountain project? :-D

I suppose your computer qualifies as an american muscle computer? ;)

Meh, amateurs. I have a seven kilowatt PSU in my computer, and it doesn't just make my lights flicker - the street lights dim too. http://www.bttlxe.com/davids_computer.jpg[^] Saves me a fortune on the central heating bill. It does kind of suck for LAN parties though...

It is harder than you'd think. ;) And that's as much as my kid sister gets to know.

I don't doubt you. On either account! :-D

I stopped overclocking because I stopped watercooling.

I failed to see the past tense in your earlier comment. :doh:
