Death by NS

I am sitting at my computer right now, and have been for about the last 2 hours. i left my computer on all day, and i think it is starting to catch on fire because it smells like burnt plastic. The fumes are starting to get to me. I feel like i am about to pass out. I don't want to get off of NS but i am afraid i might die if i don't. this is quiet the dilemma. is NS worth dying for?

I guess your computer isn't ready for NS, and its intensity.

Just do this, Remove the side panel of your computer, TAKE FAN ( any ) and blow on low into your computer. This will cause the internal parts to cooldown, And not Over Heat. And it could make your computer run better, like mine is.
