I took the plunge and bought the new case and some GSkill PC-6400 5-5-5-15 RAM. Problem is, I forgot the RAM at work, but I decided to work on the case tonight.
FUCK.
Things I don’t like about this case:
- LEDs are way too bright
- Why the hell does it have a window? So I can be reminded how bad my wiring is?
- NO PC SPEAKER
The last one’s bad. I rely so much on beep codes it’s not even funny. It’s unnatural to be lacking the “beep” when I restart my computer. Maybe I can hack something up…

It took me two hours to set it up. TWO. I’m tired, I’m hungry, I’m cranky, my knees hurt from kneeling to get a good angle for installing stuff, my arthritis is flaring up, the edge of the case ripped into the blouse I was wearing, my back is killing me, and I had a screw fall into my power supply and Sky had to flip over the case to shake it out. I’m so fucking sick of dealing with this crap with my computer. I don’t know why my motherboard’s a piece of shit or why my RAM is acting like it is. I’m sick and tired of dealing with random crashes and blue screens on top of the paranoia of not being able to run half of what I normally run because I’m scared of losing data due to crashes. I am so fucking sick and tired of this shit and I want my life back.

Sorry. Had to get it out. I’ve been good the last few weeks, but I’m almost at wit’s end.
