In Depth: How to build the best PC for your needs

By TechRadar, published 25-09-2011

How to build a PCSystem builders are great and everything, but unless you emit static electricity or are terminally lazy, you should be thinking about building your own PC. Why? Because not only do you get the satisfaction of having crafted your machine from the ground up, growing and harvesting each component from the soil… or something like that. You also get full control over what goes in the chassis. And what the case will look like. System builders do a great job of delivering sensible packages of components at attractive price points, but building your own rig gives you full control. All the parts you need, none that you don't. And no extra expense to you. And that level of control's important. It's what being a PC enthusiast is all about. It's what elevates us above the hunched si...

By MaximumPC, published 07-11-2011

Origin Ups Overclocking Ante on EON17-S Laptops

By MaximumPC, published 25-04-2011

Everyone remembers that famous scene from Top Gun when Maverick, then Goose, says, "I feel the need...the need for speed!, but it's not too difficult to picture that same line being belted out from within Origin PC's labs. This boutique system vendor definitely has a need for speed, and to prove it, the company just announced the availability of overclocked processors in its EON17-S laptop line. Just any ol' overclock, either, but up to 4.5GHz with Turbo Boost. According to Origin, goosing the processor up to 4.5GHz qualifies the EON17-S line as the "fastest Origin laptops ever built on an Intel mobile plaform," as well as the highest mobile processor clockspeed in the world. That's righteous. The EON17-S is built around Intel's second generation Core processor technology, otherwise known ...
