Default The new guy

Hi everyone, my name is Rich and I live in Auburn Washington.

I have been a network admin for several years and have built several machines for friends and coworkers. However I have never delved into the world of overclocking. I would like to change that with the newest computer that I am building for myself.

I am 42 years old; married for 12 of them. I have two children, both girls (Jessica 7 and Sophia 3) I enjoy cooking, hunting, fishing, and on line gaming.
I know that I have very limited knowledge when it comes to overclocking, so don’t’ be surprised if I ask a ton of questions.

I look forward to hearing from you and learning something new.

Thanks. RC
