Potato Syndrome 

A psychological symptom that is most common among Gamers, particularly those who have recently owned a high-end gaming device after an extensive period of time using low-end ones, which are commonly referred to as Potato PCs or laptops. Although their new devices can run high graphics, gamers with Potato Syndrome would experience anxiety and worry that high settings might over-stress their devices and would turn the graphics down.
-Man I just bought a 4090 but I just worry I would destroy it with all those settings.
-Oh you have severe potato syndrome from your mom's laptop, just turn those graphics on don't worry.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
