Hellbound Train Posted April 4, 2010 Report Posted April 4, 2010 Car audio and computers are my addictions. I dont know all there is to know either but I have learned much on my own. I learn a lot from my uncle who never even finished school. Funny thing is he worked at a computer shop and got payed to help graduates from a certain college and knew more than the teachers did.

coobies5 Posted April 4, 2010 Report Posted April 4, 2010 i've been building pc's since my sophomore year of high school, i just build them when its time to upgrade, not really into modding the cases or making it look nice, just as long as it performs to what i need it to do....graphic design and some video games here and there.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
techforce Posted June 18, 2010 Report Posted June 18, 2010 (edited) Nice computers guy! I use to do watercooling, tec and even played with liquid nitrogen, but as soon as I would complete a build, my shit was obsolete! LOL! Bought 16gb DDR3 1600 for a build I was doing and literally the next week newegg recieved thier DDR3 2ghz! I was so upset! LOL! I also raided 5 SSD drives and about a month later, the drives on the market doubled in size... Edited June 18, 2010 by techforce Quote
