For those of you who invest in building your on computer, you know the cost involved. While a some what simple gamer can run many hundreds of dollars, the price only increases from there. That being said we all understand the investment we incur and wisely so seek to protect our investment.
Three days ago I had walked over near my computers carrying a bottle by its neck when it slipped from my hand. The resulting crash with the floor sent liquid in every direction, however the majority seemed to aim itself at my expose computer bench. This was an evga overclocked system for playing with. The entire system shutdown upon impact with the liquid as did my stomach. Rather large dollar signs went swirling about my head as i could only watch the disaster unfold. After extensive analyzing I disassembled all components,2 graphics cards, 5 hard drives, 2gb memory, sound card,wireless card, power supply, and countless connections. I carefully blew everything dry and allowed the system in all to dry under force air for two days. Fortunately my beloved board and all her components went back together and fired, well not right up as it had a mild cardio, however all is well and running fine.
As for me I'm in intensive care (local beer store) and certain that liquid and my many efforts, both monetarily and labor will not be lost to such and endeavour again.
