not exactly new but...

Post by sbohdan »

well, I guess it's time I introduce myself. some of you may know me and some don't, so here I straighten this out.

my name is Bohdan Sienkiewicz (polish after my father - and yes I know all those polish jokes, so don't bother :mrgreen: )

I stumbled upon LR when I was trying to OC my prescott (good ol' google) and found out it's not all that easy as OC'ing a video card. I got lot's of help, no flaming (as at some other forums) and found LR to be a wealth of information in regards to computers (namely: overclocking, tweaking, colling, gaming etc.) and am still sticking around. I found that since I joined, I learned more, than since I got into computers 9 years ago and I noticed that if it wasn't for the Karate trainings and my girlfriend, I wouldn't be getting any life - that's how much I got sucked in :rolleyes:
also joined the folding team and am getting fanatical about it hehe.

I'm 36y. old, so I guess above the forums average age but still kicking :mrgreen:

my main interests are Karate and Motorbikes (owned quite a few: first speed ones ex. ZX 1100 and for the past 12 years choppers -japanese and harleys - I guess just getting old hehe)
I live in Ottawa, Canada since 1990, even though all of my close family lives in the states (Staten Island and pennsylvania)

I consider myself an overclocker (like to squize that extra juice if i can - still lots to be learnt
:rolleyes: )
I started out wit AMD but my last 3 rigs were from intel. I might be trying AMD in the future again but I guess will have to learn all the OC'in business all over again :?
I allways built my own computer (except the 1st one). had 6 of them so far.

i like fps and car racing games (sometimes I get nostalgic and dig out super mario and the sega games :mrgreen: )

I'm an artist and been painting 22 years now (had my first exhibition at age 16) and been supporting myself since then. if any of you dig art - here is my little site:

thanks, I do appreciate people still like art (even younger generations that - some say are only in love with electronic gadgets :rolleyes: ).

as for this:

thanks - I'm melting :P but I don't consider this meeting just yet (maybe one day, as gvblake says, we could all meet-up somewhere...)
BTW, your avatar is kute, maybe as a female here, you give us a pic :P

No this is not legit dating. As he stated above he has a girlfriend. I just thought I would compliment him on his picture on his website. For now you'll just have to look at my Karate kitten avatar :) My picture might come later on. As for now I'm going to stick to learning more about computers and pc hardware.
