I've been using AMD boards and CPUs for a few years now, but recently I somehow managed to fail at booting up a couple of my AMD-based computers. Maybe I'm just super clumsy, or maybe it's the low-quality boards I just got. Ironically, the only computers that are working in the house now are two old Celerons!
In any case, I'm simply curious about the overall experiences P4 users here have had with their systems: has anyone ever been unable to boot up their PC, get a blank screen, etc? Anyone ever fried a P4? (Is that even possible, due to thermal throttling?) I have accidentally fried two AMD CPUs in the past, and it was an unpleasant experience.
