New To the Linus Forums

CrazyMike

Hey all,

Name is Mike. I'm brand new to these forums. I'm actually a member over at a different forum as well, but thought seeing as I watch LinusTechTips all the time, figured I'd hop on over here and offer any knowledge I have. Linus is a great guy and I support him all the way (even if he is from BC :rolleyes: ). So it's going to take me a bit to get familiarized with this forum. The one I am usually on is quite different for set up and navigation. Any help from you ladies and gents for any rules or regulations would be greatly appreciated.

As for me and my knowledge:

I am not the type of person you would see on the streets and expect to have knowledge about computers. I mainly am into the hardware side of things, but quite experienced in the software side as well (not specifically coding). I still classify myself as a "newbie" and still learning many other attributes with computing.

As for my setup:

My laptop is a Dell XPS specs are as follows:

  • 17" 1920 x 1080 3D capable
  • Intel i7 - 2720QM
  • NVIDIA GeForce 555M Graphics 3D Vision
  • 16GB RAM
  • x2 500GB HDD
  • JBL Audio
  • Razer Orchi Mouse

My Desktop specs are as follows:

  • Corsair 600T White Edition
  • Asus P8Z77-V-Pro Motherboard
  • 16GB G-Skill Sniper series RAM
  • Asus GTX 660Ti 2GB Graphics Card
  • Intel i7-3770K (original clock right now)
  • Corsair TX850 Power Supply
  • 120GB OCZ Agillity SSD; 500GB WD HDD; 1TB WD Black HDD; 500GB WD HDD (external)
  • Swiftech H220 CPU Cooler
  • 24" Asus VW266H Monitor
  • 51" Samsung Smart TV
  • SteelSeries Merc Keyboard
  • Razer Deathadder Mouse

Some Pictures of my Desktop and workspace:

So I would like to thank you guys for welcoming me to the forum. I hope to serve some help with any questions that I find on here :D

P.s If Linus reads any of this: "Keep up the good work bro!"

Welcome to the forum!! Killer Rig! Love all the LEDs on there! How is that H220 working for you? Awesome temps I'm guessing.

LOL Thanks man. Ya temps are ok. Am I allowed to provide a link to the other forum I am registered in? I have a thread there titled "Are you debating liquid cooling? Grab some info here!" that shows my results.

I'm actually thinking on changing color to maybe red for everything. Just something different lol.
