Default Hello fellow nerds

Hi Guys,

My name's Glenn, I'm a french expat in Ireland.
Been here 3 years, yeah the guinness is good
I survived without a desktop for 1 year. The modding urge came back about 6 months ago and although I'm co-renting a house with no shed/garage that's not gonna stop me
I played around watercooling a yeong yang cube about 8 or 9 years ago (XP 1900+ era) and had a bit of a caraudio systems "break" since.
I'm currently working on a Lian-Li PC-V2010B

I hope to find help and inspiration for my project amongst you guys, and hopefully you'll appreciate my contributions to this community.

Thanks guys


oh I had a quick look at the definition and I'd say I do qualify, at least in part, as a nerd
