Don't have a working computer ATM,, (1 Viewer)

I haven't been very active here 'cause I screwed up my computer. I'm waiting for Nvidia/ATi to release their new cards in a few weeks so it will probably be even longer before I become more active on the forums and on vent.

I screwed it up by tightening a water-block too tight to my GPU. Usually thats almost impossible, but with my specific chip version (g92a) they removed protection from such a thing to happen.

Sorry I hadn't let you guys in on the situation a while back when it first happened. Don't want you guys to think I left the clan.

Cya guys later!! ?8)

That sucks, worse thing that happened to me when I put together my computer was I overtightened the barbs on my Video card water-block and stripped some of the threads. Then that made it leak when I did a test , so I had to use some thread locker to fix it. All good now .

Lol it's just one thing after another, well at least you didn't accidentally throw a hammer at your brand new flat-screen that you got like a week ago. >:O

Hey, what brand and where did you get it so we make sure we don't do the same?

Also how about posting some pics? You can do that through your phone too!

Good news!!
I told my grandma about what happened, she felt so bad for me that she bought me a new graphics card.. Just got my 9800gtx in the mail, now I got to get a replacement cable for my headphones. :roll: Anyways, once I get my headphones working, I'll be on vent.

and just for the guys saying:
"I'm a nub cause he got a 9800gtx."
I got it while it was on sale ($250, compared to $300+)
