yeah, turning off the fan could be the best idea.

that way it looks like it over heated - and that is a natural cause of death

I seriously dont think it would do anything taking the HSF off :/ I have had all systems before like Penitum 1,2,3 before mine now and those older Intel Pentiums (not P4) run well we no HSF attached they get hot but dont die.

Like I said before just interupt the BIOS Flash process quick and simple (Y)

Put all your fleece clothes on, then run around the house dragging your feet on the floor. Open your computer, then put your hand inside and touch the mainboard, cpu, and video card. Something is bound to die from static. :p

well first of all, putting an HD (metal) in the microwave for 5 minutes ???? the first thing that will accomplish is starting a fire in your kitchen, and that would kinda leave some evidence of foul play dont you think, I mean when the kitchen is burnt to hell, I dont think getting you a new computer will be on your parents list of things to do...

If you want to screw up your computer, its simple - take your mobo out, with the CPU still in it, and drag your feet around the carpet some electrostatic discharge will wipe those suckers out everytime, believe me ....I know.

Or while the computer is on, take off one of the side panels, unplug some of the peripheral components and plug them back in, it should create a short that will fry it good, you dont want to leave burn marks all over the thing. Any pc tech will know the difference between a short and sticking a cigarette lighter to it.

But please, keep the HD out of the microwave... that is completely moronic - the suggestion is obviously from someone that hasnt ever forgotten to take off the aluminum foil when warming something up, after about 5 secs, it the 4th of July inside....

even 5 year old CPU have temp fail-safes in the BIOS, so if youre gonna try and fry via heat, besure to disable temp/fan monitoring in the BIOS< which will probably be next to impossible since those crappy propietary comps like Dell, HP, Compaq, etc all have the BIOS jacked so you dont have access to crap...

yeah Ive seen that done @ a party once, man those things spark like crazy-- guess its the photosensitive cotaing on those things or something - LOL yeah its pretty cool :yes:

yeah getting a job would be the most noble solution... but thats not any fun!:D

I personally have fried a power supply by forgetting to move a bracket to the right spot when installing a mobo, in turn shorting out a low voltage on the power supply. im just fortunate it didnt short out my mobo :cool: .... mabye if you took some tinfoil to bridge some connections :shifty: you may not be as lucky as i was :rolleyes:

a U.S. holiday which celebrates the day we Declared our Independence from jolly 'Ol England, and being under the tyrannic rule of the King back in 1776. Every July 4th is celebrated with parties and fireworks, barbecues, everyone wearing patriotic clothing (somewhat)- every national holiday took on more meaning here after 9/11.

please notice I said "in a container"

this way it afoids spreading the fire - and maybe not 5min... jsut until you hear it 'crack' - LOL

but realisticly, ether overheating of static is your best go - they are both 'natural' causes and all eave real evidence.

Do this in THIS order:

Unplug your CPU fan cable, goto bios and turn off the CPU warning now boot to windows launch some game the CPU will fry.

Now turn off the computer and put a magnit on your HDD thats now fudged.

Now build up static electricity in your body (drag your feet around your carpet room for like a few mins) then needlessly touch your motherboard.

And there you go.

    • Apple still has two unannounced features for iOS 26 by Hamid Ganji Apple held its WWDC25 event this month to unveil a slew of AI features and its new design for operating systems, known as Liquid Glass. While iOS 26 currently has no shortage of features, the iPhone maker might still have some features under wraps that didn’t make a debut at this month’s WWDC. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes in his weekly Power On newsletter that Apple didn’t announce two iOS 26 features at the WWDC event. The first feature is a live translation of conversations via AirPods, and the latter is the ability to sync your wireless network login information across devices at a hotel or gym. Even though these features were already tipped to arrive in iOS 26, Apple held them from the event, presumably because they’re still not ready to ship. Apple appears to have learned from its experience with Apple Intelligence and aims to break the habit of unveiling new features before they are ready for release. The Live Translation on iOS 26 is currently integrated with popular apps like Messages, FaceTime, and Phone to help users break language barriers and communicate in different languages. The feature is now under development for AirPods, allowing users to hear real-time speech translations. Moreover, the WiFi syncing feature allows you to sync your sign-in information across your entire Apple ecosystem, enabling you to connect to a public WiFi network with ease. This would eliminate the need to sign into a WiFi network separately on each device. While these features haven’t arrived in iOS 26 yet, they’re more likely to be released later this year, in October or December.
    • Intel Level L4 cache has been around for a long time, so AMD Zen 3D Cache is a copy of Intel L4 cache that was introduced with Broadwell i7-5775c, which had 128mb of Level L4 cache. Secondly, Zen 6 is not faster in single-threaded performance than 13900k/14900k. 285k is something new Intel is trying, basically showing us that chiplet design does not work for gaming, just like AMD design does not work for gaming. Throwing more cores at it and having L4 cache won't fix the issue, and that is frame dip and stuttering caused by a very stupid design decision to keep the memory controller outside the compute tile. Might as well put a memory controller by bringing back a south bridge chip. lol
    • Just like AMD Zen, it is not going to work for gaming despite 3D Cache. Frame dip and stuttering are giving, which renders 14900KS the greatest gaming CPU ever released.
