Default new dude

here to finally step into that overclocking fun times, now that im too old to dump all my money into snowboards and im tied down, so no blowing it on a new girl every paycheck, here i am to try out this performance computer thing. ive always played games, but never really cared HOW it worked, as long as it worked. i had the same p4 2.6 system for almost 6 years, but it died in january, one more month and it would have seen its birthday *tear* so when i decided to build my own computer instead of giving gateway or dell a bunch of extra money to put a sticker and a warrenty on it, i thot, hey why not take it serious and have some fun with it. thats where you folks come in. im annoying with the amount of questions im gonna ask, but you'll learn to love me. scouts honor.

i play wow on a bunch of servers. both sides >.>
