Definition: According to Princeton's Wordnet, news is defined as "information about recent and important events".

Things that might fall into this catagory are:

• An announcement about a new game
• Intel/AMD's latest roadmap
• A new record overclock.

These are all things that either were not heard of before, elaborate on or comfirm things we thought might happen, or are otherwise important for an overclocker to know.

Things that might not be considered news:

• Anything that is not from a reputable source (reputable sources being any of the plethora of News/Review sites out there, a company rep, official email, etc)
• Retailer sourcing
• Anything relating to your personal hardware. This includes, but is not limited to, ubsubstantiated rumors, your persoal experiance with something, information from a source that cannot be confirmed, etc.
• Video Game Reviews

A good question to ask yourself is "If somebody else told me this and then told me the source, could I reasonably believe it?" If the answer is no, this is probably because your source is not trustworthy enough for the type of material they are reporting.

So, now you've decided what you have is news.

How do you go about posting my news?
