    That's quite crazy, is it me or did it blow through the desk as well? You could see right through and it was on the desk?

    I wanna know how the hell they even got it into windows.

    hehe , yeah it did blow through the desk, some say it was a setup, after watching it a few times i suspected it...and it kinda sounded like they was acting, but hell, they sound foreign so i wouldn't know....., but still, never the less, funny

    edit: also for those who havn't built a computer before, the heatsink/fan doesn't come off as easily as that.

    I reckon it probably was a setup, maybe someone can run the cpuid checksum and see. If it's real though- 300% overclock with 4.2V

    Rich :¬)

    Edit: surprise, no numbers, and look at the FSB vs the bus speed. Elementary error there really.
