Well today has been the most stressful day I've ever had. I was woken up this morning at around 8am by my little brother and sister. My watercooling kit came around 10, so i decided to set that up, and it didn't come with any thermal paste, so I had to walk 35 minutes to my local PC store to buy some. And when i got back, I attached the Pumps and Block, and went to fit my rad when i discover no 120mm fan slots on my case. ****ed to hell, I decided to go and get a new PC case from my local pc shop which is a 35 minute each way walk. When I got there, I asked where to find the cases, and was passed around from staff member to staff member for 10 minutes, I think they were having a joke, which wasn't funny. So I picked up an Antec 300 for £40. When I got back home, I set out dismantling my current PC and then i tried to fit it into the 300, and my motherboard didn't fit.. too my delight.. NOT! So then I had to remove all drives and psu and put them back in my old case, but then I thought I'de remove the backplate on the 300 and try again. It did fit, and i got abit chuffed, so I put all drives in etc and then tried to connect the PSU to my motherboard and the cables wouldn't reach!!! So then it was take it apart and put it back together take 2. And then I didn't have anymore thermal paste, so yey another walk to the PC shop to get some more.
And I was really ****ed off and after plugging all monitors in sorting my desk out, I've just been told my motherboard should fit into the 300 and I can buy extenders for the cables, so now I feel like a *****!!

And now here I am, havn't eaten since breakfast, in a bad mood posing my story.

Your bad day just got worse you post in a forum where every person is going to rip you up for not choosing the right case or kit to fit in the case in the first place. And everything you would have needed to know is either in these forums or only a question away from a multitude of members in the know.
 
So in other words you had a bad day as a result of completely non-existant planning on something as major as watercooling for your PC. Did you think you could just order anything and it would all magically work, maybe shrink itself to fit? My sympathy is oozing from each and every pore. :D
 
:) "The most stressful day of my life" would be more appropiate. But now I have to go back to the shop tomorrow to get some extension cables and then I'll be done!
 
I was expecting something bad from thread title, something along the lines of you've just been diagnosed with cancer and have two weeks to live.

All I see is an averagely poor day, if this is the worst day of your life then I make two conclusions.

1) You're three years old
2) You've had a very sheltered life
