"The candle that burns the brightest.. always burns out first"...specs of parts aren't everything guys they usually tend to overheat your comp or burn out.(overclocking, overheating, melting, exploding, improper casing)

Regardless of popular belief. The technology field will keep adapting and no matter how far you go to get the best quality there will always be something better.

It's like your on drugs and your looking for the next best thing. please just dont go broke doing it.
