Hello everyone. I have been searching for a good tech forum, hopefully this is the place. The others I have frequented just aren't doing it for me anymore.
My name is Josh. I love computers and all other tech. My main battle station is a HP Z800 workstation with two Xeon X5672 Quad core cpus that are clocked at 3.2GHz and turbo to 3.6GHz. They are hyperthreaded and have 12MB of cache. I also bought the HP water cooling for it witch will be installed very soon. If you want to know any more about those here is a link to intels ARK page on them.

I installed 12 x 4GB DDR3 ECC Registered Samsung memory modules for a total of 48GB so thats nice.
I hope to upgrade my GPU soon but my Geforce GTX970 reference card is working fine for now. It gets the job done on every game I have tried at 1080p.
I have a LSI SAS 9212-4i4e raid card for my boot drive and my raid storage because the Z800 was still only using SATA II and we can't be having all that junk. I am booting off a Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD and I have a 2TB WD Enterprise drive that came with the Z800 that I use for main storage. Then I have two 4TB Seagate HDD in Raid 0 that are synced with the four 2TB Western Digital Green HDDs in my HTPC that are in Raid 0 also. I know its not an Ideal storage solution but its what I got.
