I completly disagree Banik

If anything I think the OC league is more prestigous than the pro league.

No suckleware users here, no disrespect to Pro suckleware users.

It is just a different playing field when you had to spend the money for the parts IMO

Yup no doubt it and I completely agree that spending your own money to set records is much more harder and respectful as well (and as we all know though Splave is in Pro-OC but he receives only handful of a product but spends a hell lot more from his own pocket)

But I dont remember where exactly but its the Pro-OC league ranking which is being displayed on the right hand side of hwbot. Which is what everyone sees. For OC League ranking one has to select a drop down and select OC League. You see the difference. Not everyone would even see those ranking except for a few who are regular on hwbot or want to check their own ranking etc.

I see your point bro, but in all due respect, Evreyone in the overclocking league knows very well who Patch is. Ahhhh lets just say one of the most prolific overclockers in the world today. he along with Joey and Bren have competed on a world stage with the best in the business and none are in the pro leauge. When Al competed at that level he was not in the pro league at that time. And I think it is a fiar statment to say these 4 gentlement are some of the best in the business hands down. I would think all thier peers would agree with that statment being pro's or not.

Titles are what they are but Michael Jackson said it best

"I don't want to spend my life being a color"

That is reflecting on race but it works the same way in overclocking, why spend your time being a title, is it not enough just to be one of the best at what you do? and does someone joining the pro league or dropping to the enthusisat level make them any better or worse at overclocking ???


I for one would be happy if it just returned to the way it was, one league
