Right.

So I saw some weird ***** yesterday while working on a clients PC, took some photos and thought, "Well hey, let's make a thread on MyBB where all the techies can post their weird encounters on."

So here we are.

Lucky you. The one I had would POST, but flat refused to boot.
 
That chip would fizzle in 0.2 seconds if it had to boot at 38GHz.... and for you guys reading this in 2016, yes, 38GHz is a lot.
 
A PC belonging to one of my friends once just started running super fast. It was like having the old-school turbo button pressed in. Windows started up impossibly quickly, but nothing much worked properly. It was bizarre watching it go. I can't remember exactly what the problem was, PSU or motherboard I think.
 
Not really weird, but...

Whenever someone gives me a harddrive or memory stick to copy something for them, I always check what's on there. You have no idea how many people have naked photos on their memory sticks or portable drives. ;) You think you know someone because you work with them, but it's really freaky what people get up to...
