Hey guys! I'm new here - joined a couple days ago. I'll give you relatively the same info I gave to Kal-EL in the pm I sent.

Hey :)
I've been looking for a good group of close-knit avid computer modders/overclockers & a few days ago I came acrossed an online vid of MOA 2011 - Las Vegas. In one of them was OCAlliance members Romdominance & Spalve. They (Rom I believe) mentioned this website & said a bit about this team being close knit & very supportive. So I decided to check you guys out. :)

I go by the name of "Cyberjackal" / Cyb3rjackal™ online (main gamers handle)
I'm Adam, 28 yrs old, from Rochester, Minnesota, USA - and I work in the Information Systems' Security computer field.

As far as computer interests go, I'm an bigtime avid computer builder & modder... love modding cases too - especially the CoolerMaster Cosmos 1000 ;)

I've worked well with almost every Windows OS, as well as the Debian & Fedora Linux distros, FreeBSD, & Solaris. I run dedicated servers for muliple games for my friends as well as an online TeamSpeak server for my friends & clanmates (Clan MotU - a close-knit family of gamers). My TS server is currently down tho atm as I am moving my own server hardware to an ISP my cousin works at in Chicago - will be on an awesome fiber-optic line in about a month.

I am simply a guy looking for a GREAT group of people to be a part of & share my knowledge and expertise with. I am not a huge overclocker yet - tho i've done a little on procs & memory (but not GPUs). I am currently in the process of building my first watercooled rig (heavily modded - both inside & out) which i plan on OC'ing quite a bit

CURRENT GAMING RIG (basic core components):
~ Antec NineHundred series modded
~ Intel Core2 Quad Q9450 proc (2.66GHz OC'd to 3.20GHz)
~ Asus P5N-D mobo w/ Nvidia nForce 750i chipset
~ 8Gb of Corsair Dominator XMS2 DDR2-800
~ 2x XFX GeForce 9800 GTX Black Editions (SLI'd)
~ 2x 1Tb Seagate HDD's

RIG I'm CURRENTLY BUILDING/MODDING: [and having a blast doing so]

~ AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition six-core (3.2GHz OC'd to 4.6GHz or past) - hoping to go higher yet, we'll see ;)
~ MSI NF980-G65 w/ Nvidia nForce 980a chipset -- socket AM3
~ 16Gb of Corsair Dominator XMS3 DDR3-1600
~ 2x EVGA GeForce GTX 570 SuperClocked Editions in SLI [1280Mb GDDR5 each - 2.56Gb total]
~ 2Tb Seagate (SATA 6.0Gbps) for data + 2x 60Gb OCZ Vertex2 (SATA II - MLC) SSD's in RAID 0 config
~ PSU: CoolerMaster Silent Pro Gold 1000w modular
~ Sound Card: undecided yet
~ Optical Drives: 1x Samsung Blu-ray drive (SATA) & 1x/2x Asus 24x DVD burners (SATA)
~ Watercooling for cpu/chipset up in the air yet :blink: - have some ideas but not there yet
~ Memory Cooler: OCZ XTC cooler Rev.2 (modified)
~ Logitech G510 gaming keyboard
~ CoolerMaster Sentinel Advanced 5600dpi laser gaming mouse

In the past I haven't been a huge fan of taking pics/vids of my work, but am really working on it this time around. Will be posting everything upon completion both on my youtube channel & here as well (for those of you interested) :good:

Kal-El has been very welcoming & I'm looking forward to getting to know you guys more and helping out when I can. What you put into a group like this is what you get out of it! Thanks guys! :) and sorry for my long post

Welcome CJ! Glad you joined us. I meant what I said, the Alliance has catapulted to where we are because we all care for each other and work together in every facet of the game. Anything you need just put it out there, as one of us has probably dealt with it before.
