Quite right too. The most important factor for me when buying a computer is that the sales droid is in an office. All those CPU, RAM and disk numbers are secondary to that.

I just buy whichever one is called "gamer computer" and has the prettiest LED lights on the case. Thats how you know it's the good shit!

Pretty LEDs make it go faster. Everyone knows that.

I know this was a facetious comment but it reminds me of the time Kingston stuck 75 leds in an SSD and it got so hot the computer wouldn’t even boot. There is a video.

You want xenon lights, thats the heavy duty standard.
