Another issue, another
pointless Ed’s note
I was supposed to have written this Ed’s note
eons ago, but I kept putting it off. I always have
something I believe is worth expressing here,
just after we finish an issue, but when it comes to
writing the next one I’ve either forgotten or it just
doesn’t seem that important anymore.
A
t least this month I have a valid
excuse for not having anything
useful to say here. My mind is preoccupied with “The Dark Knight
Rises” so I’m not particularly
attentive. However, usually I never
have anything to write because any
idea I seem to have is conjured up
in anything but my best state of
mind. With every issue I’m in awe of
the editors who have been writing
these notes for years on end on a
monthly basis with something new
to say. I rarely ever read these in
any of the publications I buy, but that
there are words on that page means
they have something to say and I
have an ever growing respect for
that capacity. Regardless, we’re 20
issues in and we’re looking forward
to the next milestone which is 30. By
then I’ll hopefully have something
meaningful to say here until then
just have fun reading the magazine, I
promise it’s significantly better than
what the editor’s note would lead
you to believe.
On to the actual content then, if
you’ve not seen the contents page,
these are but some of the things
we’ve covered in this issue. We
have an interview with Hondacity,
from Washington. We find out what
he has to say about overclocking
and about him in general. He also
happens to share two out of my
three favorite cars right now. Check
it out and see what he’s been up to.
Then as stated on our facebook page
3 The OverClocker Issue 20 | 2012
in the previous issue, K|NGP|N’s
in the house with a helpful guide
for those who are new to extreme
overclocking. A great read even if
you’re a professional, you never
know what you might learn.
On to the hardware reviews
themselves you’ll notice that they
are slightly different than before.
I won’t go into the details here
as you’ll see it for yourself in this
issues featured hardware. There’s
always so much to cover in the 2
odd months between each issue, it’s
hard to collect and report on it.
The highlight of this issue
though is the Computex 2012
coverage. Besides being one
of the best trade shows as far
as hardware is concerned in
the calendar year, it’s a great
place to see some impressive
overclockers and overclocking,
in particular this time at the
G.Skill booth where just about
every vendor with a worthwhile
motherboard was represented.
It was truly magnificent showing
from of the best in the overclocking
community. Check out the feature
to see what we got up to in the time
spent in there.
Other than that there’s not
much else to say. I sincerely
hope you enjoy this issue and will
return in Issue 21 to see what we
have to say.
