uberreinigerI have installed a brand new graphics card in our computer. I am insanely stoked about this. Just ask my wife. I have been insufferable to live with all weekend on account of how high I feel for having done this.
You have to understand, I have never been a technical guy. I don't know how to fix ANYTHING. This is the first time I have ever repaired any machine of any degree of complexity ever. I feel all manly!
Now I am aware that video cards are among the simplest pieces of computer hardware to replace and that a child could probably do it. But this time I'M the child, and it is a child's right to be proud of their achievements.
Really the things are almost too simple to install and remove once you know what you're looking at. It made me thankful that car manufacturers do not make personal computers. If they did, then the graphics card would require eight hours to replace and cost $800 in labor.
