A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

I had BOTH of my memory modules die simultaneously in my first beefy computer I built. I was very lucky that OCZ had a lifetime warranty—they didn’t even ask for the memtest results, they just sent me two new sticks.
Then both of my (SLI) video cards died… those too were in warranty, but I began to wonder if my computer was cursed.
Bad psu checks out
Yknow that’s what I thought! But after replacing memory and GPU, everything worked great for a year or two until I sold it! I did bring it into my work (I used to work computer repair) and used the shop’s PSU tester which passed it…. I think it was just a fluke! I do know the cards I bought (2 x 7900GT) had a bit of a notoriety for failing, but I do not think the RAM had the same issue.
If it wasn’t the PSU or motherboard, then it’s possible they were both just from a bad batch
The friend I sold it to used the PSU and mobo for another couple years before upgrading, so I think you’re right! Just bad luck on my part hahaha. Thank goodness for good RMA policies!
