That box sure as hell looks exciting, it's got what looks like a futuristic lambo,

But at the end of the day... doing what that board was meant to do, is just you, the dude, sitting there, click click, click click, roll/ crickets sound.......

like
"turns out i cant overclock this beyond the collective computing power of 3 national security agencies at once wtf the ****" or "overclocking involves clicking things what the wtf" because you seem sorta conflicted between the two and i still dont see the point in either of them

the point is...

you buy things, they got this COOL idea of the Experience, on the Box..

Then you go and use the stuff in the box, and it's not nearly as much fun as the box would have you think..

tribes .. sigh.. that's not ever coming back.. you can't get kills fast enough in that game because of the large area.. and the kids these days require a significant faster rate of reward. Halo pretty much demonstrated the threshold..
