I have decided to destroy my old computer and buy myself a new one since I always have problems with this one and I'm seeking revenge on it. But I have two problems, one being I have no clue how I will destroy it and two, I Don't have the money to buy myself a new one. So I'm asking you to please help me!
My goal is of $2500, in reward I will give out prizes to some lucky people who donate at least $1 via paypal, I'm thinking about games, prize money, Headset with mic, and a video card. And I will also video tape the destruction of the computer and post it on the internet for your amusement! here is the link to the site; http://www.communautedejoueurs.com/destroymypc/ There is also a limited number of space for sponsors who wish to help me and promote themselves at the same time! wish me luck! ![]() Last edited by phatmatt; 08-31-07 at 01:43 PM. |

You could build a half-decent rig for half that amount

If you know someone with a plane that offers skydiving, you could also find a nice deserted spot, attach a video camera to the PC and tape the 10,000 foot fall to the ground. I'd include something to try and stablize the case so it doesn't tumble all over the place on the way down. |

That's actually a really nice idea you got there! But I think it would cost way too much for it to happen? I need to see that. you should post in the forum, since when I will be ready to destroy it the people will decide which Idea they like best

Part it and sell it, should make you quite a bit of cash to spend on a new rig. Allso you might want to troubleshoot to make sure where the issue is and fix it, just a thought. Past experience has shown that most people who say things like the OP are computer illiterate, but im qilling to give anyone the benefit of a doubt.

Indeed, all parts in that rig are decent, exept for the processor which is a netburst architecture piece of ****. I love second hand hardware myself, cheap and if its from an overclocker you know what you can expect. The only part of my rig bought brand new was the cpu and i got a golden one

Destroy it?
Dont destroy it give it away to someone or offer it to charity they will pass it on to someone that cannot afford one. Me i pull old PC's apart and keep the parts which then just turns into more junk, but good junk, kinda like a vintage car collector ![]() |
