last Friday: video card XFX GF8800GTX - weekend start
1 month ago my HDD's SMART told me I have 4096+ relocated sectors, so I replaced it, can't remember day, cause it's my 2-nd 1,5TB drive, and my system 500gb 3y.o. drive is still working
31-st December: video card XFX GF8800GTX - 3 day holiday start
3-rd October: RAM - weekend
14-th August: PSU - weekend


HOW THE FUCK DOESN'T SHIT BLOW UP ON MONDAY MORNING!??!?!
SO I CAN GET IT REPLACED BY THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING WEEK!!!

PS: using an old x1800 atm

lol what are you doing to your hardware that you hav to keep going through it all.

I've yet to have any hardware failures except 1 hard drive. My old 939 system is still going strong, including the 7900GS KO.

I don't know. I think the current is shitty in this town, so I'm looking to buy a ON-LINE UPS, but shit's cost like 350+ EUR Sad

In the past 6 months I've returned 5 blown video cards, all of friend's PC's I've ordered...

I'd get a surge-protector of some sorts that stabilise current. Don't go for the cheapest stuff.

+1 for what deelix said

would that 1.5TB drive happen to be a seagate? went through 3 of those before deciding seagate could fuck off... hitachi sucks really hard too.

i am fucking DONE with hitachi and seagate man. worst HD manufacturers, ever.
