Well still doesn't make sense to me, especially since all major manufactures/retailers use the upper case system I pointed out BECAUSE IT'S RIGHT

This has helped me quite a few times already... I'm guessing "OCer" means over-clocker. I'll get the hang of it in another year or so.

one small issue i noticed.

You have: "OverClock (the process of raising the speed of a processor above factory specs)"

where that is not the case, your RAM is not a processor, your FSB is not a processor, your AGP/PCI-e bus is not a processor, all those tihngs above are not processors but can still be overclocked. I'd put something like this.

OC: Overclock/Overclocking (raising the clock frequencies of a bus, processor, data cable or band above factory recommended frequencies)

I'd say that would sum it all up.
