BAM the PC was dead :(
 
Well, I woke up this morning and BAM my PC was dead... I have many but this was MY MAIN MACHINE.. I had to look into what happened.

I had a PNY Gforce TI 4200.. the key word being had. A capacitor had swollen up to near poping and a voltage limiter had melted making the PC board that the card was made of diss color in a wave of escaping energy over 2 inches in diamiter..

I felt bad for the card as it performed well... I hated the card because it took my motherboard and CPU with it !!!!

So with a forced upgrade now imminent This is what I purchased.

Athlon 3000+ CPU
Asus A7n8x-e Deluxe
1 gig of ram
ATI 9800 pro 128 meg (This biotch needs its own power source)

I can't wait to push this thing until it gives like the last one :P

GAME ON
