I get a few free games every now and then.... so not all bad :D


If you look carefully at the top pic you can see a little mod board (with green wires).... Thats how to overclock a graph card with out messing with the voltages... ;)

A little independant company... based in letchworth.

Only 10 of us here, but a nice niche market :D

Nice 1 m8 :adore

Have to say would be better if the sweets where more tasty, 8800 GT's are nice but i'll stick with my 2 8800 Ultra's :booty

1 x 8800Ultra Watercooled and custom modded :) Beats 2 x 8800Ultras in SLI and your 8800GT s :)

I work in ehr Construction daytime and for myself i work for my own as High end/oc ing/gaming gear pc shop.

Nothing online or site just for the underground who likes specialist configs with descent pricing (not to get most money out but fair pricing)

this is my current advertising rig (for when people come to my home and want to see where i am capable off) on testing day (one year ago and the wiring was still not cable managemented) and it needs an update with new hardware :)

But hey we work for the community not to fill my own pockets :)

Thx.....

The best one is when you sync 8 cards together.... the little board allows that.
As the standard crystals on the board locks the settings

You can then bypass that and squirt / inject 8 cards into one output....

We dont do that here at work, but out customer does.... looks very impressive ;)
