Guest genaldar Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Greatest invention ever! Now I only wish I hadn't quit smoking recently. Quote
ross549 Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Wouldn't that draw a LOT of amperage off the power supply? Quote
nlinecomputers Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Wouldn't that draw a LOT of amperage off the power supply? It would. It's a dumb idea. No P/S out there is able to handle the load that one of them could put on your system. That's one **** of a spike to be sending towards your CPU and drive motors. Quote
teacher Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 I just figured whatever damage it did to the system would be the just rewards for the person that needs it as a modification to their system. Quote
nlinecomputers Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 What Athlon owner needs it anyway? That chip would light any cig for ya. Just hold it up to the heat sink. Quote
Jeber Posted November 5, 2003 Author Posted November 5, 2003 I just want a place to plug in my 500,000 megawatt all-weather spot light. Quote

Stonegiant Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 I just want a place to plug in my 500,000 megawatt all-weather spot light. Wow... Half a terawatt. Just as a SWAG (scientific wild @$$ guess) I'd say you will need to have about half of the United States to unplug EVERYTHING for a little while to power that baby. You'd also need to win the lottery to power it for more than a few microseconds... And while we are at it, you will likely need a power cord about 20 feet in diameter (I wish I still remembered how to calculate cord/insulator diameter based on maximum expected current ). Quote
Jeber Posted November 5, 2003 Author Posted November 5, 2003 Not a MMORPG gamer are yaUhhh, I don't think so...how can I tell? (ok, I recognize the rpg part of that, but mmo?)Personally, I thought tee hee was one of the TeleTubbies, the fusia one with piercings. No? Wow... Half a terawatt.You think I'd mess around with a pen light? Ha! I'll warn you all before I power that baby up. Quote
ross549 Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 You think I'd mess around with a pen light? Ha! I'll warn you all before I power that baby up. I would hope that you do, merely for courtesy's sake. Quote
