Hello Hello,
Just a short note of introduction.....
I came to these forums through the lure of the mighty TTL reviews (thank you Tom, best reviews on the net) and also as a middle finger to another well known retailer which has a OC forum attached. I am hoping that this forum does not have so many ridiculous rules and restrictions and am looking forward to doing my purchasing through another company. I hear my old retailer only speak german now anyway
I have worked in the IT industry for around 25 years and have a keen interest in overclocking, modding and benching. I mainly use my PC as a music workstation but also have some time for playing games. My main draw is the wonder of water cooling. I Will state upfront that I am not adverse to a bit of home brew, over the winter (UK) I was running a my loop into a household rad which was mounted outside, nice and quiet and very cool. Now that the sun is upon us I will be looking to buy a new case/360 rad/res and build something a little more pretty. I am also a big fan of mayhems.
