Good morning everyone.
Thought I'd say hello. It's been 20 odd years since I built myself a pc. I had a lian li PC-6089(blue front) with an athalon 32bit cpu and a geforce card...that's about the only things I can remember. Unfortunately my wife made me take it to the tip last year, which I constantly regret. I loved that case, and being my one and only ever build, always had a soft spot for it.
I've been thinking to build another pc for the last year but refuse to pay scalper prices for a gpu and had just about given up when I remembered Overclockers has a forum....hence why I'm here. Guess I'll be doing a bit of reading and catching up how others have faired trying to get a graphics card. I've already read OC allow forum members to get a card closer to MSRP if they post 1000 times. That's a bit daunting for me, as my knowledge is a little bit out of date, though I can start asking about the components I've roughly chosen for my build(won't buy until I can get a gpu, so in a catch22 position like a lot of people I guess).
Anyway, hello all!
