So last night I bought all the parts for my new Quad core system and put it all together and man is that computer fast! gets me to the BSoD ( Blue Screen Of Death) in record time! This just fuels my hate for Windows Vista. So tonight I am going to install windows 7 and I bet it will run like a dream. lol!

Otherwise it smells like a new car. haha

I once had a Sun Enterprise system with 14 x 400MHz CPUs.

Didn't need to put the furnace on once last winter lol!

Built My self a X4 core Barbecue_computer

While it probably isn’t a technological breakthrough, it sure is interesting. It seems this user has converted his barbecue set into a computer casing. At a quick glance, it might even look like the barbecue is still running with red hot coals inside, but in reality it’s actually the fans that are used to keep the computer cool, rather than toast it.
Too bad the barbecue doesn’t function anymore, or he could probably cook himself some sausages whilst gaming, and if he’s worried about getting his food burnt, he could always get one of those automatic rollers for hot dogs on a grill.

I'm more likely to convert my computer into a BBQ.

Yea I am thinking about liquid cooling it if I can get it running long enough and of course overclock it if I am gonna cool it enough to do so.
