I'd also think moving your PC will rip your CPU right off the motherboard

The trick is not to move the PC, but rather the copper block, which just happens to have a PC attached to it.

So, you're saying that putting blocks of copper on everything in a PC will automatically shed unnecessary parts, building a more efficient system?

Just run a solid copper block for maximum efficiency.

Wouldn't gold be more efficient? Can't I just fill my PC with gold doubloons? The rattling noise means it's running.
