Hi folks. This place looks awesome. Make sure you thrive here, and have FUN!
Most of you probably know me from other places, so there isn't much need for a presentation. Still in my mid 30s, living in the arctic (Narvik, Norway) with my fiance and a kid (soon to be two).
Just shooting you a pic of my setup from this years winter forumwars. The best I could do with my current financial situation

With the window behind the shelf open, I managed to reach ambients of -6C for my runs, idling the E8400 at 4.7GHz@1.80V with core temps in the mid 40C. Just too bad this POS 780i board won't let me clock to the sky :rofl

Thanks for posting here koma. You are a madman for what you pull off with the hardware you have. You got some scores from that session?

Not much to brag about, but I bagged my forst sub-10sec superpi at 4.74GHz for the wars. Guess that was my best achievement. At least the one that made me most proud :D

Nope.. no free shipping :mad:
Winters aren't too bad. Just had incredible luck that spesific week. I generaly see temps in the 0 to -3C range, but during the first week of wars we had steady -10 to -14C. Good for clocks :p

Nope... I guess nothing will top it. Unless I against all ods should get a dice pot and some cool new hardware and grab 100+ globalpoints at the bot for one run :rofl
