Hello everyone, I'm Uncle and just been appointed a mod here. Big fan of PC games, FO4 will forever be one of my favourite games, bugs and all. Been a PC gamer since, well the 90's, so you can call me old, but i prefer Uncle. Rocking a R5 5600x paired with 32G of 3200 mhz ram and a new RX-6650-XT as of last month. More RGB than I will ever admit to having. Still a bit new to the site as of today, but learning it quickly. Birds? you talking about birds? oh wait, wrong community!! Back to PC gaming topic's! Feel free to ask me questions, I'll do my best to answer in a timely manner. Still figuring out the formatting of post's, so forgive my noobness

Thanks and Welcome. If you're Uncle, then just call me Grandpa. Been 29 for over 25 years now ๐Ÿ˜Ž

You build is similar to mine except I went Team Green (3060ti). But being older, monitor is a 43" TV and sometimes that feels small.

Cheers Edit for spelling

I started my GPU addiction with a voodoo 3dfx, even installed my own cpu cooler to it since the heatsink was not enough to keep it cool. Stuck with them when NVIDIA bought them out until I started selling PC's back in the early 2000's. Became an AMD and MSI authorized reseller and never looked back!

I was running a computer shop in the 90's. Before that, was a Dbase3 programmer.

Cheers.
