With 15 years I started overclock my PC to get every extra FPS I could in games and scratch a few milliseconds in SuperPi, all the while relentlessly posting about hardware on the Geeknetic forum as a user and reader. They must have been so fed up with continually reading me on the forum that I became part of the writing team, where I continue to report on the latest in technology. Astrophysics and PC games are the hobbies that, after hardware, cover most of my free time.
