im not blaming, i was evaluating...to evaluate a whole computer you consider all things in it even those that are useless...i dont need the wireless adapter pci card that draws like 4w off the pci bus but i coun t it when evaluating the comp. thus i consider the led and cathode part of the radiator because the cathode lights i have are sound reactive so as the dual fans get faster it shines brighter givin me an indicaton of the RPM

I'm glad you're clearing all this up for me. I don't know what I'd do otherwise. I sort of suspect you need some basic electronics (in addition to your plumbing degree), though. Just a guess.

what makes you think that? i have basic electronics knowledge...i learned electronics from 3 books (beginner, 1st and 2nd yr intermediate) and from 2nd year physics that my dad is teaching me right now (electricity and magnetism)
i dont have a plumbing degree ok and i know basic electronics...i cant build a motherboard but i could prolly build a network card from a pcb

you dont have to insult me. i think we have deviated enough from the OPs post...

I hope you aren't relying on selling to the members of technical forums. If you are, concentrate on the youngun's that flock there.
