New to forum, Hope to help out!
 

Heya! New to forum, but will be providing information and possibly reviews in the coming months. Liquid3d has agreed to help me get my pen to paper, and earn a few stripes possibly writing hardware reviews. Mainly, I frequent xtremesystems/xtremeresources forums. [H]ardforums have turned into romper room so I rarely go there anymore. Well, that's it for now, but look forward to helping out where I can :)

Welcome aboard! :hello:

Did you mail jmke yet to become a part of the crew?

I have not as of yet. I believe Liquid3d will be doing so.

well, I'm looking forward to your writing :)

welcome to the forums :hello:

ty jmke. Not sure if Liquid3d has contacted you or not. First article probably in 1.5-2wks. Will compare OCZ 3500EB and new PC4000Gold Rev2 on Socket 939 Asus/FX53 combo. Looking for max performance with stock type voltages and also with 3.0+vdimm. I would like to include PC3700EB, PC3200EB, or PC3700Gold Rev3 but don't have those kits. I have 1-512mb dimm of OCZ PC3200EB I may review on a 754 setup at a later date, but would need a matching dimm to cover that in my 939 shootout. Also, will be comparing the OCZ's to some Mushkin PC3500Level II 2x512mb kits for BH-5 vs newer rams and finding my max performance experiences. Hopefully, I can begin to establish relationships with manufacturers to I can open up testing to products I don't have to purchase myself, as this gets to be quite an expensive endevour :O

I am in market for another 939 board at this time. If rev 2.0 A8V is available I may purchase this. I am also very impatiently waiting for the DFI 939 board.


I could provide a review on the Antec P-160WF case. I topped a Vapo LS with this case and LOVE it.

You can lmk if there is anything in particular you need coverage on. Also, I am not trying to step on any toes here, so if I'm offending anyone EVER, Please let me know.
thanks :)

JNav, those shootout looks great! Liquid3D has not contacted me (yet) but that doesn't stop me from appreciating the fact you consider to join our [M]ad crew :)

looking forward to your first rev.!

I appreciate the warm reception and a place to post my [M]ad scientist findings :p

Hi there; I'm sitting right here in IL, the beautiful city of Lake Zurich.

Dont' worry; I have no toes.;)
Welcome!!

JMKE I just sent you two emaills. Yes JNav69GT seems like a really stand-up person. At first I got a little confused because I misread the post, and thought it read, "Keith (Liquid3D) said I'm the new Reviewer....." I got nervous, as I'm just a tiny electron swirling around the nucleus that is [M]

:ws:


I see your simply taking the incentive to introduce yourself, and reiterate what we did discuss. I think JNav69GT would bring some valuable experience to the community. Which by the way I need to get more involved in myself. (I'll kick myself harder)

He's very experienced with electronics in general, and his systems reflect that of a true Overclocker. We met through my offering some hardware for trade. he will soon be the proud owner of myA64 3400 CAAOC (which I couldn't master). I was impressed he was a very fair trader, and didn't try to take advantage of my kindess in any way. After all there are some over here in the USA whom are always looking to get the best deal, and sometimes pretend to be your best friend in the process. JNav was simply honest, and straight to the point.

I can say one thing, he definately knows his hardware! he's got some seious rigs! Welcome to the [M] comunity, I've found a really great bunch of people here. And to be completely honest many good things seem to originate from Belgium! There must be like "smart molecules" in the water or something?

:hello:

Welcome to the madness :hello:

Your avatar reminds me we should in include a new item in our next give-away : one hour of free quality undisturbed privacy time with Bonny, madshrimps cutest sheep in the stable.

hehe! Thanks all. And Liquid! No I'm not trying to replace anyone. My mindset is that reviews on memory(which I will initially focus on) is very specific to 1st a platform(ie socket 754/755/939/socket A/etc....) and within that platform sensitive to variables between mainboards. My role I believe will be to ferret out which modules perform best on Socket 939, and maybe even a bang for the $$$ shootout once I can accumulate enough information/data and products to test. This is relatively new to me, so I think jmke will have to be a bit patient with my submissions. Liquid3D has calmed my fears a bit though and I feel excited to begin my work.

Welcom to the :mad:ness. I've got to admit, you rock :super: . You're here only half a day and you already promise us a good review :king: . You've got to be very rich man, S939, S754, some kickass mem, VapoLS :drool: .

Ow, Liquid3D, you realy don't want to know what's in the water here :wtf:

hey Liquid. LOL you shorted me 20 man. Else you think I'm ultra stud. Lol JNav89GT not 69GT :)

btw, relates to my old 89MustangGT Supercharged 500HP 12sec 1/4 car on street tires. Coulda been a low 11sec car on slicks. Was what my friends referred to "scarey fast". My current 96' Trans AM WS-6 seems slightly slow in comparison at only 13.1@109 in the 1/4 mile(at least I beatup on my friends 2003 C5 vette as his best was 13.4@106mph----was a very slow track day too, so our times would be better with cooler air etc...)

heya welcome :hello:

looking forward to reading some of your reviews.




Got some pics of that monster you drove? :)

I already like you :)

12seconds to do what exactly? :)

12 seconds to do a quarter mile ;)

:hello:

welcome to the [M]adness.

into what does that translate for .EU people?

doesn't mean a thing to /me :/

http://www.google.be/search?hl=nl&ie...ilometer&meta=

noob ;)

so 12 seconds for 1.6km STILL DOES NOT MEAN A THING TO ME.

:p

useful value: 0->100km/h in seconds, now that gives some info to which I can relate

400meters ;)

If you know top speed, distance and time, you can compute acceleration ;)

:o

If you know the acceleration, you can calculate the things you're asking for ;)

well duh. still doesn't provide me point & click info:p

hehe, yeah that's b/c I have unreal expectations sometimes. I figure with the $$$ I spend I should be getting better than average oc's. I think one reason I don't meet my expectations sometimes is I base my oc'ing goals on what I see other's obtaining. However, when I qualify my overclock, it's 24/7 stable and I think some people over-estimate their stability, ie they can run superpi 1mb run or they can run 3dmark 2001SE. If it won't prime95 overnight for me or loop 3dmark for 24+hours I don't consider it stable. I can bench much higher than my stable speeds, but again, that's only bench stable and such.

I will admit I'm very hard on hardware, but I push everything I have to extreme and if it passes it's good, if it breaks so be it.

Quarter mile run is really for American; I was in automotive industry for 8 years - manufacturing Pistons, Alternators, Starters, Cam, Timing Sprockets/chains, intake/exhaust valves, valve guides and got to know a lot of people in the industries.

For EU people, it is better to use the term 0-62 k/m run time.

My bike would do 0-62k/m in 3.8 second.;)

My 27 years OLD Datsun Z in 5.8 seconds:banana:
