OCM Checkin in
 
Well......

On shore duty for the next 3 years. Wife and I are considering retiring in Hawaii. Been here off and on since the late 90's so this feels like home more than any place else. Kids are great, one in kinder and the other in preschool. I'm also going to school and working on a business degree from HPU. Living in Pearl City housing these days. Shopping around for a house in Mililani, Waipio, Kapolei or Makakilo. Looks like I may have to sell my house in Virginia Beach to make that happen....:blink:

In 3 short years I can retire but you never know, I may get the itch to go back out to sea for 3 more years and put a star on top of that anchor. If not I'll probably be a contractor for the Navy at Pearl Harbor then apply for a GS job.

Wife will finally start working again as a Nail Technician in Pearl City. We just applied for a business licence, Woot!

Anywho, still running a GTX-580 and 2600k in my main rig. Server and HTPC are running great without issues. Benchetto is in the garage collecting dust and have no real hardware to bench these days. Maybe one day soon we can all start benching again ;)

Selling my Harley on Craigslist because I picked up a Plum Crazy SRT8.

OCM out....

OCA FTMFW!!!
:good:

How much u sellin the Harley?
I have an 2014 anniversary r/t black as my motor car :) LUBBIN IT! Diablo tuner 93 octane tune.
Too bad you don't have that Hellcat, I'd love to say I know someone with one hehe.
Happy to hear the family is doing well. My wife gets her nails done every now and again, maybe I can point her that'a'way.

I'm still loving the 2600k action. Last week or so I been running at 5.1ghz @ 1.475vCore with an AIO water cooler + liquid metal (this shit is da bomb). Had a choice of upping Vcore and going for 5.2ghz or leaving vCore and dropping multiplier. (while she runs games/benchmarks at current voltage its not enough voltage for full performance)

So I dropped multiplier to 50 in an attempt to be responsible and keep hardware running longer. So far so good.

I've been tinkering with a few benchmarks since and even finally tried catzilla 1440p, dude, awesome benchmark to run, cats cracked me up big time. Made a few lowly submissions at the bot as well for some points.

Seems I'm headed slow steam towards benching again. Will accumulate that X99 setup as able to.

STILL HERE! FTMFW!

Looking four around 8K for the bike. Here is the link.

Yeah, I'm all about the Mopar. Seen a couple local Hellcats, just a bit out of my reach. Looks like there is a Mopar get together that happens on Saturdays from 6-9pm at the Wendy's in Kapolei but I've never been. May swing by this Saturday with the family and check it out.

Here is the thread.

Here are a couple of pics of my purple headed yogurt slinger, lol.

My 2600k has been clocked at 4.2ghz for a few years now without a hickup. After I complete a few mods on the Challenger I'll have to tinker on my machines again for some updates.

Gotta check out that catzilla 1440p :scared:

Talk about beautiful, SRT8 to boot!
I'll be ordering that hood for my charger one of these days.
Exhaust, K & N intake, Diablo Trinity, 10" rims n the back, done.
I'll get a photo for yer soon.

Wow, yer bike looks awesome. Wish I could swing the 8k.

Thanks meng! :thumbsup:

Don't plan on touching the motor other than Exhaust, K&N Black Hawk, and tuner.

Unless I can find my wheels in 20X10 I'll stick with the 20x9 and upgrade to 275/40/20s out back.

Also plan on strut tower braces front and back and that's about it.

Need to move the bike to get these things done though. Got a couple calls but nothing serious yet.

Nice stuff guys and good hearing from you OCM - Glad you made it back!

Last year my brother and I went from here to Wisconson and picked up a 2014 Shelby Mustang, grabber blue /white stripes.
Here's a few eye candy shots I took of it.

Kal-EL 04-05-2015 05:00 AM

I really like your ride Bones. My partner has a stang and its got a nice rugged growl to it.

It belongs to my brother, I could never afford something like that unless I win the lottery or something.
He's always wanted one and went along to help him get it.

OC Maximus 04-11-2015 01:02 AM

Your brothers ride is pretty sick!

Sold the bike! Woot!!

Time to start modding the Challenger :bananadance:

Kal-EL 04-11-2015 01:38 AM

Long as you keep it under 80mph and never 30mph over any posted sign :thumbsup: (no arrest or sr-22)

I'd have to guess you're correct about seeing us, there isn't much mistaking one of these for anything else except maybe for another like it.

Check the pic, is the vehice that was pulling it all as you saw it shown?
Would have been nice to speak to you but we smelled somewhat like goats and were truly dragging (Tired) since we did the entire trip in one shot, no stopping except for a few hrs at a rest area on our way back. :laughing:
