jammin Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 Your're a real OC'er when.... Going a day without tweaking something is worse than going without food and water. You're Idea of fun is to get your friends (what are they?) round to see your latest mod and how it takes half a degree off your proc temps. Your benchmark scores are more important too you than your salary You boast about how you can run the latest games at a million fps but don't actually get time to play any as you're striving for 'that little bit more' performance.

General912 Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 You watched OCC (Orange County Choppers) expecting a show about case modding A chill runs up your spine when you smell burning circuit board Instead of taking a CDR to your friends house to grab a big file, you take a spare hard drive When you cut your computer on guests wait outside for the person with the blow dryer to get done so they can use the bathroom. A jet flys over while your sleeping and you have to make sure its not somone on your computer Somone comes over to use your internet and you have to brief them on what to do if your CPU overheating alarm goes off. Hey linux which was first Orange County Choppers or Overclockersclub.com You could maybe sue them for copyright infringment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
