I build my own because I enjoy doing g so for the last 28 years or so. I am 52 now and I have some mistakes in the past that cost me, it is not as easy as some think it is.
Really? The only thing I ever killed was a 1Ghz AMD T-bird, and I was due to an error with the Alpha HSF. It was defective from the factory..one corner of the fan screw slots was tapped all the way down so when you screwed the fan on, it lifted that corner up. You could not tell it by looking at it but it was just enough to fry the chip.
The good news is it was 2 days old and the vendor that sold me both exchanged it...My replacement became the first T-bird to break 1.33Ghz and was a world record holder for a good while!
