Source: TG Daily
_______ San Francisco (CA) – The editors at PC Magazine’s labs got a good dose of second hand smoke when a very expensive Voodoo computer they were testing burst into flames. Brian Neal says the fire was contained before it engulfed the entire computer. |

Scares the shit outta me that sort of stuff, wonder what malfunctioned to allow temps on any component to reach those temps without throttling or shutting down. I never ever leave my PC on when im out or asleep in another room, think I may pop out and buy a small extinguisher for my room tomorrow
