K404 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) If you short the wrong pins on a UD9, the board doesn't die, but the user might.

Maybe I should have this shirt made for the next time I see Sergio? lol that's the best t-shirt ever it should say instead "killed with ease by UD9" i remember how the UD9 killed 2 GPUs and the PSU when we tried to go 4 way SLI -UD9: chepo PSU detected, these noobs are going to learn the hard way fortunately non of us touched the board while the execution, otherwise we'd still being suffering the casualties news: "here lies the noob who tried to kill a UD9" Edited February 21, 2012 by Predator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
