“All you need are the GIGABYTE boards & an Australian passport”

Yes, the latest geek rankings are out for the geekiest of the geek benchmarks, SuperPi. HWBOT supplies rankings for the “SuperPi low clock challenges” which are essentially CPU frequency limited SuperPi benchmark challenges for various hardware platforms. A lot of overclockers start their addiction to the hobby with pure MHz overclocking and later they find out about SuperPI (calculating Pi). This is the type of benchmark which is single threaded in nature and measures the system’s core performance and memory overclocking and tuning abilities. GIGABYTE boards and Australian overclockers seem to be the deadly mix and top almost all the rankings!

There is only one conclusion for all the aspiring overclockers out there, drop everything, move to Australia and start overclocking on GIGABYTE everyone!

8pack and der8auer light up the record books with X99 SOC Champion and TitanX

8pack and der8bauer attended an "OC Academy" event in Cambridge last week and did some crazy overclocking. Their rig was powered  with GIGABYTE X99 SOC Champion which is a weapon of all top flight overclockers who take records. The two overclockers from UK and Germany have a nice video out as well and claim to have taken 15 world records.
Congrats guys!

Interesting things on the net today

I came across a shot from ThermalTake’s new fans range, doesn’t it look awesome?! Love the orange LEDs paired with GIGABYTE Z97X SOC Force!!!

Another interesting story that got my attention was the new aluminium ion battery scientists from Stanford University are working on. This will be pretty sweet for any mobile user  who needs batteries to charge in one minute, wow. Hopefully they can also have the right capacity soon so we can have decent lasting battery life.

More at ABC News.
