Computer Build on Intel Skylake Platform

My latest creation is in hardware.  First water cooled machine stable to 20% over clocking!  Spent quite a bit to upgrade my monitor to UHD, new DDR4 memory, and a PCIe SSD to deliver a visually superb picture with fast loading and processing to augment the newly released Skylake processor from Intel.  Decided on an “A” but not “A+” single graphics card, as the performance versus price did not seem to warrant the price increase.  Very happy with this rig, full specifications below:Read More »

Welcome

Welcome to my first blog.  I have decided to share things I enjoy on the web with hopes it can help enrich others and we create a space to share ideas and expand ourselves by leveraging shared experiences.  Hope you will subscribe and comment on the articles I write.

Main focus here is to share my hobbies.  Please subscribe if you share any one in common with me:

  • Computer programming in C++ with DirectX and Windows
  • Computer hardware builds
  • Poker
  • Golf
  • Game reviews

And maybe my profession of Mechanical Engineering or information in my career in leadership.

My brief history:

Graduated from Purdue University in 1995 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering.  I have my state license as a Professional Engineer since 2001 and practice industrial facility design for seven years before joining a large pharmaceutical company.  I have held several leadership roles and have now been with three major pharma companies within manufacturing making medicine.  I have been programming since 7th grade and have maintained my skill now for 28 years.  If I take long breaks from posting new material, please know that I am likely enjoying time with my family or staying late at work making sure all of us have medicine at the pharmacists.  When I can, I will be on my hobby writing games and I hope you will fine these articles enjoyable.

Kind Regards,

Chris King
