Anyone who employs the use of a plasma cutter to build a PC I would say is extreme, yes...

Unless I'm wrong this exercise appears to be entirely in pursuit of fast benchmarking...

I'd have used the money spent to buy a better PC in the first place!

Because it's a cool (pun intended - groan- ) thing to do. If people didn't tinker with stuff like this there would be very little innovation.

I couldn't care less about the computer but that workshop looked fun. I also spent 3 years using that polishing kit so have some sympathy for the guy

Thats exactly my sentiments ! Its not the chipset or boards that matter - its the journey ! i'd love to have a spot of A-Team and build something totally impracticle, but strangely satisfying at the same time !

That man gets my applause regardless !

PS - What red blooded male wouldn't want to cut shit up with a plasma cutter !!
(when i say shit - i mean metal - not actual shit......that could be a bit messy)
