As I sit in with everyone around me gaming I couldn’t help but think about all of you who couldn’t make it out to NexusLan with us this weekend. Because of that I have put together the affiliate news for you to have something to read. Just look on the bright side, you aren’t here with Fidly and you can spend the weekend catching up on reviews from around the web. It may not be the same, but you will be with us in spirit. See everyone Monday when I am recovering from a LAN hangover and publishing up a review for everyone to enjoy.

You might call him obsessed or just a hardcore geek. Wes's obsession with gaming hardware and gadgets isn't anything new, he could be found taking things apart even as a child. When not poking around in PC's he can be found playing League of Legends, Awesomenauts, or Civilization 5 or watching a wide variety of TV shows and Movies. A car guy at heart, the same things that draw him into tweaking cars apply when building good looking fast computers.
