Hi there the names Stephen, friends call me Stevo, although my online alias always goes by the name Rohiric "sort of a mix up of the word Heroic" anywho that's the very short of who I'am.
now in to a little more detail, I'm a 21 year old doing my 3rd year at college studying I.T. "notice Studying has the word dying in it for a reason" the reason being I feel that so far on my course I've not really learned anything I think the internet is teaching me before they can. I love computers especially the hardware side of things it really interests me to the point where I'm currently finishing up my second personal rig in the 5 years I've been into computers, over the years I have spec'd, built and helped out a fair few friends with there rigs. and am very eager to continue learning as there is always more to learn.
Life story of what I'd like to do / learn along the path of my future.
1st up something I'm quite new to and still learning a little about is cable management, I've only really implemented it on a few builds I've done as most PSU's have too short cables to tidy behind the motherboard tray. The way I try to lean people towards when building there rigs is "if you want it too look really nice tidy and have a little wow factor, buy some Bitfenix Alchemy cables!". Now then, I've watched a couple of videos and know the basics on hows best to do it. but still never implemented it on my own personal rig yet. so any info is greatly appreciated.
This is in no particular order btw. Secondly of the top off my head, I've only very recently had the balls to creep into the bios and start changing a few settings and Overclocking my CPU properly as opposed to say "Easy Tune 6" and I'm having fun at the moment seeing what I can get out of it. I would really like to see how far I can push it on air.
And that brings me onto my 3rd and final thing I'd like to know more about. Water cooling! I've always been scared in the past to use water in my rig just because of how mad it sounds, for instance "yea I'm just going to go poor a bottle of water all my expensive electrical equipment, seems logical" hehe, but no I'm starting to become interested and would love to learn more on water cooling and how best to go about it, you know just the basics to get me started so I know what I'm looking for.
And yes that's me. I should probably also mention I'm a heavy gamer amongst wanting to learn more about water cooling, overclocking, benchmarking, folding @ home and cable management.
