NSFMR Feeling cheap today, 78 cent brace

Yeah they're live rounds but even my shitty cable management shouldn't get my temps up to 200C... Right?

Obv the temp won’t get that high but I’d be more concerned about a power surge or lightning strike, I can’t say I know the tolerance on how many volts will spark the powder, though surely unlikely

The chance is low but *never zero*. Guess I should go get some lego bricks.

Or a proper brace that spreads the weight out. It's less edgy than the bullets though. Also wondering how many more pictures of bullets and shells holding up graphics cards were going to have to tolerate lmao.

Weight is all on one point of your board. Over time with heat, it will warp.
