June 18, 2015 Joe Shields 3

AMD was gracious enough to invite Overclockers.com to their Club AMD event running along side, almost literally, the annual E3 video game conference. Coming into this, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Something GPU related no doubt, but it turns out it was much more than that. There are some details I am unable to share at this time due to embargos, but AMD and its partners really brought a lot of cool things out to show the attendees. Let’s take a look at a couple of them.

November 9, 2012 Bob Nova 2

Here we have Cooler Master’s latest PSU. No longer content with mere Silver or Gold ratings, this unit is rated as an 80+ Platinum unit.

Or at the very least, that it’s at least 89% efficient at full load, 92% at 50% load, and 90% at 20% load.

November 17, 2011 Don Fisher 18

Over the past few weeks, I have used this cooler on my GTX 580 (1.5 GB) to test and compare against the following heatsinks: Thermalright Shaman, Asus DirectCuII, MSI TwinFrozrIII, and the stock rear-exhaust reference cooler.

Gigabyte H55N-USB3 mini-ITX: Big Overclocks From A Small Board

December 30, 2010 Ross 1

The Gigabyte H55N-USB3 is one small board that is capable of some really big overclocks. I have always thought of mini-ITX motherboards as utilitarian in that people only used them if they had a specific reason to.
