alan-lake

So what is Alan Lake? Well, you will need to dig deep into the depths of your mind and find the true source of everything you are afraid of. This is the Alan Lake $5000 Monster PC Build. All kidding aside, this machine was named in honour of the Skylake chipset from Intel, Alan Wake the video game and Sam Lake of Remedy. You can probably see the pattern now.
