Default Down Time

We are sorry for the downtime over the last 24 hours.

Here's what happened...

We had an opportunity to make some hardware changes on our server (more news about some of these changes in the next few days) and during that time we removed an extra hard drive and SATA/RAID card from our system. Unfortunately our OS (primarily boot loader) did not like this and caused us some major grief for the past day or so. But we are back now and better than ever (hardware wise)! For example, we are now able to accomplish backups of the forum at a rate of every 10 minutes and performance should be up.

We are sorry once again for the downtime and for any delays in responding to PMs. Look for them to be answered over the next few days.

We have some exciting things in the works and we are now back on track to bringing them to life.

WOW, looking at other overclocking forums during the down time was really boring. I don't know what it is about this forum, but I can't get enough of it. Don't leave me again

New things are coming you say? Hmm..the suspense of waiting.

Tis true! I was so lost and didn't know what to do I started to re-rip my music collection to a higher bitrate. Now that I'm running an o/c'd dual core, it only takes about 2 minutes/CD. With my old PC it used to take about 40 minutes/CD!
