I have been wanting to write something like this for a long long time, I’ve became an OCA Gladiator since on the date of Jan 21st 2010; it has been a very different, exciting experience in my life. I have made a lot of friends here. I remembered when I joined the team it was only a few of us, we ware somewhere around the 40s in the US rank and I was somewhere around the 20 thousands rank. Within a few months we had grown tremendously quick now we are flooding between 7~8th in the global ranking.
One of the stars of this month OC Maximus and I was talking few nights ago, in the middle of the conversations he asked me “whats your long term oc goal?” with those exact words, I didn’t think much at the time, but then just as the more we talk the more it got me thinking about what do I really want as a goal for my overclocking life? Some people want to become the OverclocKing, and some want to make a career out of there overclocking, and some just want to relax after work and have something intense to do with their spare time; now what is your point of view on overclocking? For the past few days this question is being bothering me more than anything ever came up in my mind, I love overclocking too much, and I call myself a 24/7 Overclockaholic, but when someone ask me what my long term oc goal is and I was so shocked how empty minded and speechless I was, it made me unbelievably sad.
I still remember the night back when I hit the 7.13GHz score on CPU-Z, I tweaked more than half day, and just when I hit the surprising score I forgot where I was and what time it was (it was sometime around 2~3am) I started to jumping around and screaming like an idiot running around nonstop!
This may just be my personality but I have never really had any big long term goals I have fallowed all the way though, but keep on pushing it is one thing that I blindly tried and tried. For the one year I been in OCAlliance I have learned more than the years of experience I thought I have had, what I know right now is no more than a drop of water in the ocean, there is a long way to go for me.
Lastly I thank everyone for having me, and thank our superman Kal-El for letting me joining the team. Sorry English is not my first language and sometimes it may sounds kinda weird and twisted.
Not sure about you guys, but here is two man that I really look up to, and wish to become one day.
Splave, after all this work he is finally ranked number not 6 but 5! In the world of overclocking.
OCM, what can I say, went from 40 something up to number 4 in the team? Your works has been appreciated. In the short few month of learning you have raised to the top
And there are more people that have helped me though out the course of being an OCAlliance.
Rickss, though me how to run super pi with the RIGHT WAY.
The guys who though and give me ideas on how to run and tweak 3D stuff
And SPECIAL thanks to Hondacity, I am not sure if he is gonna be reading this anytime soon, but the man HOODED ME UP with so much different things, the F1EE, the 666 slim pot, and now the replacement Commando board, and bitches me out when I am not studying when I am should be.
And thanks to DOM for helping me and teaching me how to do Vmod, and kicking my ass 24/7 in COD
And now please share your story, what do you overclock for?
acebook
Well, now why do you overclock?
The highs and the lows, failing heaven at tests 26 of 26 to grabbing the world record. Just thinking that noone has ever run this test with the numbers I was just seeing makes you feel pretty good.
