Well avoid Bobbdobbs stuff, It might be great but is a bit harsh he admits it himself.  _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

I've heard of someone growing marijuana inside their computer case. Apparently worked quite well until it got sucked into the CPU HSF.

I'm guessing a gamer? With a UV-lit case and a graphics card giving off more heat than a dodgy Sony battery? _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

I believe so. Not sure how it avoided the graphics card, but to the best of my knowledge it grew to the stage where it got sucked into the HSF, jammed it and cooked the CPU. That said, I imagine if you're growing enough marijuana inside your rig to kill the CPU, you're growing enough to make replacing the CPU a relatively painless process.

But if it got ignited in the fan then would the user really care? _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

I seriously doubt it, although I wouldn't mind being in the room at the time!  Let my hair down, act like a proper hippy for once, y'know.
