    Anyone can make their own parts as well, maybe not as advanced as a Video board or whatever, but a PC board is not that hard to make. A wire here and wire there, a chip here and chip there, and a little bit of solder and you've got yourself a pc board.

    And as far as the car thing, just knows how to make a car part doesn't make you a car guru, millions of factory workers around the world make car parts, but they have no idea how to repair a car. Same goes for PC parts, I have a buddy that works for Intel, and he makes the processors, but can't figure out how to install windows if his life depended on it.

    You have engineers who know more about making parts and making them work in pcs, but many of them still have problems getting their computer to work. The whole computer guru thing is just thrown completely out the door. Some people know about some things and others about something else. Very few people can do it all.
    Just my two cents, and I've decided not to rate myself, it's pointless.

    Because of a number of factors, not least your 32 page thread on building a pc and your "should I use rubbing alcohol to rub the thermal pad off the heatsink" question
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.
