Hz 1440p ASUS monitor that makes
fast paced games so much more
fun, first person shooters are a real
treat on it.
If anyone ever wants to play a
game on Steam with me, message
me somewhere and I'll be glad to
play!
What are your four favourite games
of all time and what are your three
favourite of all time?
My favourite games of all time
would have to be a mix of what
I currently play, and games I
used to play when I was younger.
Runescape was definitely one
of them, Super Mario would be
another. The last two would have
to be Battlefield 4 and League of
Legends.
If you could change one single thing
in overclocking what would it be?
I'd like it to be easier for new
comers, and maybe make things
slightly easier for certain things.
I also think HWBOT should
maybe perhaps re-work the
3D benchmarks, so that people
benchmarking 3D with a 5960x don't
have a massive advantage over the
average everyday gamer with a
4670k or something like that.
10 The OverClocker Issue 37 | 2016
A lot of guys I know think
overclocking is extremely expensive
to be competitive in for these
reasons, which is partially true.
Making it slightly cheaper, and easily
accessible would make it more
enticing for new guys I think.
Your general sentiments about
overclocking regarding its future
for you personally. Is it something
you’ll be into for as long as is
feasible or are you thinking perhaps
there’s a time when you may have
other commitments which may not
necessarily allow you to be active in
overclocking?
Overclocking isn't my main focus
really, gaming / movies & TV shows
are 75% of what I use my PC for,
then the other 25% is overclocking.
I definitely will continue to
overclock as long as I can,
continuing to push limits on my
hardware and push the limits of my
knowledge. Learning new things is
also really great, and it seems like
there is so much to learn in the OC
scene. I have come such a long ways
since I started back in March 2015
on HWBOT, and I don't plan to stop
anytime soon. Looking forward to
starting Ln2 soon, as so far I've only
done dry ice & water/air cooling.
Thoughts on the base clock
overclocking of the locked Core i3/
i5/i7 CPUs which have gained some
popularity since it was uncovered on
initially the ASUS motherboards and
others as well?
My thoughts on this are a bit
shaky, I love the idea of it, but I have
a bad feeling it won't be “public”
much longer. I've heard Asrock
has already removed this feature
from their newest BIOS, and I bet
more manufacturers will soon be
pressured to do the same thing.
Finally, is there anything you’d like
to say to everyone reading this?
First off I'd just like to thank
TheOverclocker magazine for
giving me this opportunity in the
first place. I've been really pushing
hard recently and I think it's finally
starting to bare fruit, I knew I was
doing well, but hearing it from
friends and fellow overclockers
makes me more confident in what
I'm doing. I really appreciate all
the friends and support I've gotten
from fellow overclockers. I'd like
to thank a few people if possible;
Rtsurfer, Jumper118, GtiJason, and
to all the others that have helped me
or talked to me about overclocking,
spread the word and keep pushing!
