Hey all, I just wanted to say hi. I am from just north of Salt Lake City Utah and new to the whole custom pc thing. Like alot of you I have been gaming for ages with off the shelf garbage. I did my first build about 6 months ago and am about to do another. I went cheap with the first one, ooops, I mean amd, and haven't been even remotely happy so now it's time to spend some cash and go intel. Also for the first time, I will be trying to wrap my head around water cooling and oc'ing. I would have been here sooner but I'm flying solo here and just found this site today.
