But was the GPU OK? That's gold right there.

    It looks like it's just some of the RAM and the mobo. The obviously-AI article says they got $3500. The Insurance probably views the whole unit as one item and pays for it all. Unless the owner is a dumbass and says "oh, just pay me for the parts that were damaged and I'll salvage the rest."

    I would sue the hell out of that neighbor, not just for the PC and the the hole in the wall. And he should be made to turn in all weapons, as there is this incident is proof that he is not up to the responsibility of gun ownership.
