Joel Wood

"There will always be a small group that colors outside the limit lines, Overclocking is like life, limits are there to be tested. . . How far will you go?"

Vincent Bosquez

"I live to overclock , and overclock to live. Building, benching, and tuning. I would build one everyday if I could and overclock it!"

Upinder Sarkaria

"I like to overclock because it pushes my rig to the MAX!!!!"

Harold Wolters

"Why I like to overclock: cause it's a kind of a sport to get the most performance for the least of money."

Frank Bruckerl

"Push it to the limit."

Kit Hounsell

"What can I say? Free performance? Hell yeah!"

Benjamin Januszewski

"Da ich schon seid Jahren CPU sondiere und Geeignete ausw�hle und verbaue ist der Benchmark 3DMark06 ein gutes Programm das System unter Last zutesten. Die Ergebnisse sind in meinem Fall eher zuf�llig. Es freut mich aber mit meinem System einen Award gewonnen zuhaben."

Edward Baldwin

"I enjoy the satisfaction of being able to take a piece of hardware thats stock, and see just how much extra power I can get out of it for gaming and everyday tasks. I really enjoy playing several MMORPG's and alot of first person shooters. For me, that few extra FPS really does help. It's also a very big feeling of satisfaction because I know it's something that "I" was able to do, not something store bought or built by someone else, but something I made with my own two hands, tested, tweaked, and set up to perfection by me. I know I might not own the top of the line hardware, or have the latest and greatest, but what I do have is mine and it's one of a kind."
