haha, yeah, i know that feeling

 

....how about when you ditch air cooling for H2O because it is quieter(this is what you tell spouse), but within a few weeks you end up cutting holes and mounting fans and heatsinks all over the darn thing anyways

 

my wife said, "i thought you said this thing was going to be quieter after getting all that stuff?"...lol...i told her it is, she just can't tell

You know you're an OCer when you actually build this server... in your freezer.

 

You know you're an OCer when you turn on your computer just because it's routine.

When You get up in the night to check your temps (I have done this)
