Overclock3D Latest and Greatest Modding Logs
OC3D Modding Projects
Published: 21st August 2007 | Source: Overclock3D Forum |
Modding is a slang expression that is derived from the verb, "modify", and the noun, "modification". The term can refer to the act of modifying a piece of hardware or software to perform a function not intended by someone with legal rights concerning that modification. |
We here at Overclock3D Forum decided it was high-time that our own dedicated 'modders' received the recognition that they justly deserve. Since the birth of Overclock3D we have had a handful of people who have done exceptional things and spent countless hours of time modding their hardware to the point of refining the art of modding. The art of modding can be undertaken for a number of reasons, whether it be: artistic modification of hardware for purely aesthetic reasons; increased performance, and/or purely to increase hardware's fitness for a purpose.
This article page will be regularly updated to reflect the status quo and current projects as they reach completion. Should you feel that we have missed a project that should have been included here, by all means feel free to contact any of the mods or admin and we will assess the project for inclusion.
So without further ado we present to you the Overclock3D Forum Latest and Greatest Modding Projects article, which contains fine examples of the talent present amongst us. Please bear in mind that these have been listed in no particular order.

Basically: unlucky if they do.
It's not a guide or anything (which we would have even more of a disclaimer on) so tough

Nice bit of exposure for Mr. Klebofski and a decent insight into modding...
Could there be more of this type of article in the future, leaning more towards the 'how to'?Quote

As far as guides are concerned we do have a fair few, but if we get time then we could perhaps do some more.Quote
