Murdered? isnt that a bit strong? Maybe wacked with a wet noodle.

Class action suits are a way of life

punishable by death

Thing is lots of pepole stop at a menu screen to go mow the lawn cook dinner change a diaper or fall asleep.

Common sense would lead one to believe that at a menu screen the machine would be under the least stress not a constant grind. You would also think pepole would notice the cooling fans screaming like they have never screamed before. But they dont. Folks are lazy and to many its easier to leave the game running than it is to end the program and shut the machine down.

A video card on the verge of failing just might be pushed over the edge.

I have had games cook an older card before its not unheard of.
