Why not simply use the original?

"Cogito, ego sum."
Its "cogito, ergo sum" ,AKA I think, therefore i am. It was established by the french philosopher Rene Descartes. It turned the philosophy around, from the "outro-spective" view to the "intro-spective", where the human was in center. Its also called "the cartesian philosophy".

YES, IT'S OT!!

Thanks for the info guys. You made the choice easy. I have to check my power supply. I think its a 300w. A 450w supply will probley be in order. They are not hard to swap so i can do it anytime.

Thanks again!

Potius Mori Quam Foedari is the usual translation (note, on the net you'll find variations including foedar and foedare but the passive infinitive seems to me best). A reasonable alternative would be Malo Mori Quam Foedari.

Both literally render as "I rather/prefer to die than be disgraced".

Total wattage is not a reliable indicator of a PSU's capacity anymore. What matters these days is your total 12v capacity. IOW, there's no point buying a 450w PSU if it's only got 20A on the 12v rail(s) and you need 25A. Get that right and the 5v and 3.3v will follow. That said, you can get a reasonable estimate of your system's power requirements at http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculator.jsp.

Sorry for continuing to go OT, but he wanted Death Before Dishoner translated, not I think, therefore, I am.

According to Wikipedia the Latin original was "Cogito, ego sum", later changed to "ergo" by Descartes.
