[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments
DJ Charizard:
So where my cpu power supply cable and connector meet, they got so hot that part of the plastic on the tip of the cable where the power from the psu comes from melted into the connector itself. I can still boot up and everything, but it legit smells like something is burning. So I changed it to the other connector and (for now) it's working fine. Though, any chance I can get a tweezers or something to get the melted parts out of the piece on the motherboard without electrocuting myself?

no. applications that don't launch on start up won't slow you down.

Discharge the board first, then you should be safe.

Just got a HP Z600 Workstation from Microcenter today
Cant set it up yet without mother noticing, shes going to yell at me if she sees it.
Upside was that it was only $430 from Microcenter
