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.
well untill it is an official word i will leave my definition.. websters doesnt have a definition of Overclock.. so i could change it to increase the Frequency above factory settings.. but then it just sounds stupid
the original intention of overclocking was to get mor MHZ out of the CPU
originally done by changing the Multi... but either way you look at it, The main goal still is to get more from your CPU... AND GPU is still a processor so that counts also... OVerclocking your AGP/PCIe is not a good thing so i will not add that, Unless we want to promote Making your system unstable

Oh and BFH has been there... well since before you were a member..

Anyways the others are SLang Acros so i left them out
but i have considered adding a few but definataely not **** or any of the LOL /ROFLMFA Acros
MAybe IMO or RMA or IDK
Ill add them later.. im eating my Bfast

Thanks for the input

How about.....

RTM = Read the manual
RTFM = Read the F%$king manual
Rails = the different voltages (3.3v, 5v, 12v) that a PSU produces

Maybe someone who is new, but that doesn't mean they don't have common sense. They just don't have experience or the knowlege. And it's not an acronym
