leegroves86's PC Profile

I started building computers back in high school. Unfortunately, with my first computer I built it the wrong way. I never did get the thing to eptl. Over the years I've gained a lot of experience from my mistakes. It was all a great learning experience none the less... no regrets

I've spent somewhere a little over $2,000 on my current computer. That sounds like a lot for a computer and well it is. BUT, I'm not your average pc user either. I'm an enthusiast, I require more from my PC and thus I don't own the $499 Dell deal
