When the Sales Department at Thermaltake gives you a personal order line.

 

If you can keep warm in Alaska using your rig without the HSF.

 

If you change your name to Frank Stephen Bailey for the initials.

 

When the lights go dim in your house as you turn on your system.

 

If you use a conductive pen to write letters.

 

If your favorite game is CPU-Z.

 

When your water cooled system is powered by the Niagara Falls

 

If you keep a HazMat suit in your closet for when you have to open your case.

 

When a wire management professional comes to you for better airflow advice.

 

When your Thanksgiving turkey is prepared on your heatsink.

 

When Windows XP is completely loaded BEFORE you press the power button.

 

When you get the Military Power Switch for your case because it's necessary.
