Overclocking Memes

The AUDACITY of CPU temperature distribution! Left side: normal humans SWEATING BULLETS at 70°C thinking their computer is about to spontaneously combust. Middle: the statistical bell curve of temperatures showing most CPUs operate around 85-100°C. Right side: those PSYCHOPATHIC GENIUSES with their hoodies pulled up, casually declaring "80C is fine" while their machines are practically melting through their desks. The duality of PC users is SENDING ME! Some of us are calling 911 when the fan gets loud while others are like "145°C? Just needs more thermal paste, sweetie! 💅"

Someone took "more holes = better airflow" to its logical extreme by apparently drilling hundreds of extra holes into their PC case. This is the hardware equivalent of optimizing your code by removing all the whitespace. Sure, technically you've increased ventilation, but at what cost? Your warranty, structural integrity, and dignity all died for a 0.5°C temperature drop. Next up: watercooling with an actual garden hose.

The escalating terror of computer components at 100% utilization is painfully accurate. GPU and CPU maxed out? Mildly concerning but whatever. Disk at 100%? Now we're entering horror territory. RAM maxed? Pure dread as your system crawls to a halt. But VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) at 100%? That's straight-up "prepare for your hardware funeral" territory. Nothing says "I should have bought a better power supply" like the smell of burning electronics and the sight of your precious gaming rig becoming a very expensive paperweight. The progression from "this is fine" to "call the fire department" has never been more accurately depicted.

Ah, the classic "my CPU is running at half a million MHz" situation. Either this person has discovered the world's fastest processor or their monitoring software is having an existential crisis. For reference, most high-end CPUs run at 3000-5000 MHz, so this is just casually operating at *checks notes* 100x normal speed while using only 14% of its power. Next week: "My RAM downloaded more RAM and now I have infinite memory."

When your friend asks what CPU you have but you've been living in fantasy land since you "overclocked" it. Nothing says "I'm a hardware genius" like naming your own fictional processor the "Ultra rizzler edition" running at 9.5GHz while your actual base clock is a modest 3.5GHz. That's not overclocking—that's over- lying . Next thing you'll tell me is your RGB lighting adds 10 teraflops of computing power.
