    Minor outbreak of counterfeit AMD CPUs

    http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/dis...106142242.html

    Remarked and defective CPUs may work unstably, malfunction and probably lack any overclocking potential, a capability that is valued by computer enthusiasts.
    It's good to know that AMD still cares about overclockers. w00t!

    Well I'm sure we spend more money then most of the casual users on computer stuff. Especially since we also kill alot of stuff.

    yes, it should be something more like .0001% probably.
    I used to have links here demonstrating how awesome I am, but it's been so long that they're not very relevant (and the pictures have disappeared), so I guess I'll have to get working on new stuff.
