Overclocking with Seasonic

Overclocking is resetting a PC component to make it run faster than its manufacturer-specified specs. A user may overclock a processor to improve the performance of an older computer or to conform to the requirements of new software. The most demanding users are gamers, who may overclock even new, top-end equipment. The most commonly overclocked computer part is the processor, however often other components, such as RAM, MB chipsets and graphics cards, are also overclocked.

Seasonic Snow Silent and the power of overclocking (Nacho A., Chile, 2015 November)
Overclocker Pixy from Italy and our Seasonic X-1250 at Abaco Shop (2015 September)
These two Seasonic Platinum 1000 W power supplies were used in Nacho Arroyo's OC test: 3DMark Vantage, Catzilla @ 720p.(April 14, 2014). "Catzilla" is a 3D benchmark added to Hwbot recently to extend to the limit of the GPU and the CPU. Overclockers need high stability for the entire system to perform, therefore the choice of these highly reliable power supplies.

Serious overclockers need to use an efficient and reliable, often modular, power supply - such as the X-1050 -, that provides sufficient power for the increased usage during overclocking.
