I’ve been watching more niche sports lately, and it feels like every time a massive influx of outside capital hits a league, the soul of the sport gets traded for "growth." Is there such a thing as too much investment for a global organization?

Overclocking (Main Thread)
in Desktops ·
Quick question...
Here is my current setup...
Motherboard: ASRock N68C-S UCC
CPU: Phenom II X2 560 BE > overclocked/UCC to Phenom II X4 B60 @ 3.66GHz (using a Cooler Master Hyper T3)
RAM: G.Skill 2x2GB 1600MHz / 1800MHz overclock
GPU: Zotac GT 240 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 overclock (with an Arctic Cooling Accelero Pro L2)
HDD: Hitachi 250GB 7200RPM 8MB😢
PSU: MS Industrial PRO-550ATX 2.03 P, 550W😢
The main issue is this: the motherboard is rated for up to 95W, but since I unlocked the multiplier, this CPU pulls about 125W if I'm calculating correctly. Is there a risk the motherboard might burn out?

Or maybe I just shouldn't bother at all... 🙄
I've got a bad feeling about this... I really don't want to end up throwing my money away on an empty box...
...Has anyone else here dealt with scams where you order something and end up receiving absolutely nothing?

First off, hi everyone, and kudos for starting this thread...
...I’ve run into a bit of a situation. I was communicating via email with someone and agreed to buy an item (cash on delivery). I offered to cover the shipping costs myself. The item is worth $67, but the shipping alone is going to cost me $7.25?? He claims that’s what he paid for it. I actually found the listing on a site like Craigslist... It’s been a few days now, nothing has arrived, yet his ad is still up—and he even raised the price? ????????
He has several other active listings on that site. I have his phone number, his name, and his surname (though I honestly can't tell if they're even real)???
...So, I started double-checking his email, his phone number, and his personal info, and I just can't be sure if this is even a real person...
What should I actually do here?
