Articles Contest - $1,500 in Prizes!  

post #1 of 27
Thread Starter 
The FAQs section on Overclock.net was once one of our crown jewels. It helped by providing authoritative answers to some of the most asked questions. After years of being in read-only mode, it’s now back and better than ever.

Overclock.net now allows members to create wiki and article entries within a variety of major and minor categories. We need your help in developing these more so your suggestions are always welcome.

To help launch our new system, we are giving away $1,500 in prizes. The more you contribute in a quality manner to adding and editing articles, the more chances you have to win one of the following prizes:

Two questions.

1) Does this include the How-To's?

2)If so, can we submit posts that are already on OCN boards for the HowTo/FAQ contest?

Sean I went though that when I was putting up the sleeveing video guides, It might be best to group the related ones together so the relevant info is in one spot. I think you should expound on the SSD one for sure. =) Good Job BTW!
