Yeah, there's nothing that feels better in chess than that. I still remember my first win in the norwegian championships(in the noob category, not bragging, they let anyone play in it) almost 20 years ago(yikes); found, correctly calculated and played a rook sacrifice leading to mate(it was like a 3 move combination, all checks, nothing too fancy but I did consciously threaten it the move before). I also remember walking into mate in 1 in another game that tournament, the rest is a blur.

And in fact most of the wins I remember the most clearly involved some kind of well-found sacrifice. The others tend to blend together too much in my mind. And most of the losses I remember most clearly involved horrible blunders.
