Compressed Air Smell ?

Hmm, that's a brilliant idea for a new PC accessory. It could monitor for smoke/odor and provide an on screen notification/report: normal, burnt capacitor, etc .

Seriously, some of us have inquiring minds and want to learn through questions - nothing wrong with that.

I mean DAMN... i'm pretty sure i'd be able to sense freakin SMOKE and even see it coming it out of the PC which is NOT happening... this is barely a FAINT smell... and the weirdest part is when gaming and FULL LOADS i can't even sense it anymore.

Don't worry Burning electronics, even if you cant see the smoke You're going to smell it and it will taste in your mouth if there's a lot...

So if it ain't burning down my house and no smoke, no problem, GOT IT !

Please use "C" class only extinguisher in that case.

In that case, keep a large fire extinguisher near your PC until the smell stops

I usually keep one right under my desk and one under my pillow at night for clouse encounters.
