i started out of curiousity.. i was in a forum about windows back in 2001 or 2, and a member linked to ocforums. i tried it out, killed some stuff, and went back for more!
what got me hooked was back in socket a days with my nf7-s, and all the modded bioses.. then haveing a heatsink capable of takeing volts! ok , thats a fib, when i broke 1ghz on my 933EB is when i was hooked! i think.. now back to the nf7.. i was hooked when my axp was dominateing my buds 3ghz northwood, in most things.. then came a64! and conroe! and.. i think it was the fact that i didnt have to run what i was sold..
tho i really did hate my first ocing board, wich was a dfi.. i did take a celly 600 to 8 or 900 tho, i cant remember!
i do know that since around 2002 ive spent roughly 10k on hardware.. that kinda chews.. but its been a blast somewhat competeing with someof you guys in other forums, its been fun
btw, reading my post, i think i may have a lil ocd, and add.. ohcrap
