Title: Introducing: Myself!
Post by: mAz on Sun, 10 March 2013, 04:04:57

Hey guys,

My name is Dan, I am 24 and an avid gamer and I love all things PC tech! I'm from the UK and I am currently a freelance anything (ie: unemployed)

I stumbled across the forum while searching for some inspiration for my customising my keyboard and I felt I should join as it looks like a pretty good place to be! Not much to say about myself really, I live with my GF and her parents with our puppy, Captain (Beagle/Jack Russell X). I have over 14 years of IT knowledge and experience and I really want to get involved in a career with IT. I love playing Starcraft and drinking ale and I normally live-stream myself doing one of these 2 things on a daily basis. If you would like to watch my stream, have a laugh at or with me then you can find me at www.Twitch.TV/TPEmAz (I recommend using the "new" version of the website as the layout is a lot better!)

My current set-up consists of:

Keyboard: CMStorm QFRapid
Mouse: Logitech G600 Black
Monitors: 2 x BenQ GW2250
Mousemat: Razer Goliathus Control
Headset: Logitech G930 Wireless
Webcam: Microsoft Lifecam

Case: Antec 902
Motherboard: Asus P8Z68-V Pro
CPU: Intel i7 2600k 3.4GHz
CPU Cooler: Antec Kuhler H2o 920
RAM Kingston 1333 4x2GB
GPU Asus nVidia GTX580
HDD: WD CaviarBlack 1TB
SSD: Kingston HyperX 100GB
PSU: Antec 1200 Pro

Drink: Coffee, Spitfire, Bombardier and Lancaster
Food: Anything except nuts... They are my kryptonite
Music: 80's Rock
Babe: Hyuna (Every DAMN time!)

Hey man, always great to have more people from the UK on board! Hope you enjoy your stay here! And try not to spend all of your money too fast :D

Thanks Tym! Yeah the UK isn't the greatest but it's home.

Spending money isn't normally in my job description, I leave that to the lady but occasionally it's nice to treat yourself!

This made me laugh, quite much  :))

Hope you can find some decent gear and decent advice on here to get you a sweet keyboard setup.

Thanks Sonic, I already am very happy with my current keyboard but I would love to somehow make it my own, I am currently looking into hydrodipping (Youtube it if you aren't sure what it is) and hopefully one day I will get round to making a scratch built one... If I can find the patience!
