Overclocking Hero Kingpin interviewed

@ 2009/02/22
Born and raised in Detroit - Michigan area and I have lived here my whole life. I didn't get into computers really until a much later age as I was mostly into doing outdoors stuff like skateboarding/snowboarding, mountain biking, and riding sportbikes. Maybe around 1999-2000 is when my interest in PC's spiked. At first it was only online pc gaming and no oc at all. I was a big UT player. Always trying to squeeze the most FPS as possible out of my gaming machine, I stumbled across a few sites dedicated to overclocking and tweaking such as XS.org and others like Futuremark. I soon realized that tweaking/oc'ing your machine can be just as fun as playing games. It wasn't long before my pc room looked like mission control with air ducting, a million fans, and water tubing everywhere. What started on simple air cooling soon went to water, then single phase change, cascade, dry ice, and eventually LN2. I stoppped online gaming completely and started overclocking all the time.
