Welcome to my personal website about overclocking and benchmarking experiences!
I got the chance to play some with Gigabytes GTX 260 Super OverClocked version. After vmodding it to 1.5v and keeping it at -120*C I was surprised to see it hit some crazy frequencies.
Most competitions are done with requirements of high frequencies and high performance. Gigabyte wanted to try a new concept with same cpu frequency for all competitors and air cooling meaning only the tweaking would make the difference. I was there competing with Henry "ME4ME" de Kruijf.

Issue 7 of The Overclocker magazine just got out. It's the largest one yet and includes an interview with me so if you want to know how I got started with overclocking etc hit the link after the break.
It's this time a year again, when overclockers in the Nordics gather to test out what the new technology from Intel has to offer. This year it was scaled down and only had 5 participants: Sampsa and SF3D from Finland and Kinc, Crotale and myself from Sweden.
Just double click it and it saves the screenshot to the same directory the exe-file is in. Perfect for those bench screenies!

With the new P55-platform launched it enables some crazy memory speeds. A-DATA has made use of this and have launched their newest kit at an astonishing 1100Mhz at CAS 8.
I was invited by Andreas at AMD Sweden to participate in an overlocking event at Swedish e-tailer Inets retail store in Sisjön, Gothenburgh. There I was supposed to show what AMD:s Phenom II in comination with HD5870 was able to do.
I've had the chance to play with AMD:s new HD5870 graphics card. Since no one have posted any results yet, I give you some results on aircooling.
After finishing third in the MOA 2009 European final I was invited together with Henry "ME4ME" de Kruijf to the world wide final in Beijing, China. This time we got lucky and won.
I just got some info on BCLK ability of Gigabytes P55-boards. Using the GA-P55-UD5, an Core i5 750 cpu and some liquid nitrogen a BCLK of an astonishing frequency of 272 Mhz was seen. This means that even with the slowest stock cpu for LGA1156 probably won't be limited by the bus frequency.
