New enthusiast around

Fulcrum93

Hello everyone, my name is Roberto and I'm from Italy. 

I started following linus tech tips a little more than two months ago on youtube while looking for some good case reviews and here I am at last. Without a new case yet. 

As a quick bio I could say I'm a pc enthusiast since 2010, built 4 rigs for myself, family and friends alike, and now I'm looking for components for my next build which will be an N7 black and red themed one. Hope I will find some good advices here. 

My actual rig, after almost 4 years of good service is:

Asrock Z77 extreme 4

Intel i5 3570k

Corsair DDR3 1600Mhz Vengeance lp white

Sapphire HD 7870 GHz edition 

Corsair CX600

Crucial MX200 250GB (bought almost a year ago to see in first person how much truly changed from HDDs to SSDs) 

Seagate barracuda 1TB HDD

CM Storm Enforcer

CM hyper 212 evo (recently bought because of stock cooler failure). 

 

Your tech videos are like drugs guys, keep up the good work!

Thank you both :)

As soon as I decide which case is worthy, I'll start collecting components and post lots of pics lol

Truth is I'm rather picky on the matter

Nice nice!! 

Dont forget to quote people. Otherwise there's a good chance that it won't be seen! 

Will you be doing any painting/modding?

Sorry, using mobile I did not spot the quote arrow.

Yes original plan was on paint, but I'm actually thinking about some "professional printed sticker" thing. Already bought one online made from a custom art of mine and looked quite good.

About modding it depends on the case indeed. I thought about a custom psu shroud but here in Italy things are a bit messier with this kind of stuff,  it's not likely you go to a do it yourself kind of market and they have the machinery to cut and bend metal. Wood is okay, steel is nono. 

So chances are either I find a good way to hide the nzxt led logo of the h440 and a grommet for the psu shroud hole (I hate that ungrommeted hole), or change my mind and look for something else.

No worries :) 

Thats a shame. Italy can be a rather crafty place. (Funny I'm there, (here?) for summer). 

Shame for the modding ideas. But that'll bring you down other Intersting ideas! 

Ooh a h440 that could look pretty spacey. Tag me when it's up!

Cool sure will do. Have fun here in Italy anyway then, and try not to get caught in the pepperoni macaroni Berlusconi side of things lol

thanks man! 

Suggestion about salumi (&salami) is to enjoy them in Emilia Romagna (region), either in the cities of Piacenza, Parma, Bologna or Reggio. Best ones are found there ;)

Welcome to the great kingdom of Linus Tech Tips!

Are you a fan of heating your pizza on your computer like @Slick, I feel like the two of you will get along just great!

I once explained to my girlfriend what true love is. I said, "If you were a shit, I'd put you back in" and to this day, she is still my little shit.

I randomly cook some meat on an AMD cpu lying around, sometimes.
