Welcome to the Overclockers Australia PC Database
What is it?
The PCDB is a place where people can showcase their PC's. It will accept your images and host them, and you can fill in a huge amount of info (or as little as you like) about your system. You can then use a link to your system's entry in the PCDB as a summary of your system's specifications, performance and modifications.
How does it work?
Think of each entry as being 2 separate parts. Firstly, there's the specifications page. This lets you list in great detail all the info about all parts of your system. You don't have to fill it all in if you don't want to - just skip the parts you want to leave blank or can't remember. You can come back and update it later if you like.
The second part of each entry is the pictures page. This section lets you upload images to be stored on our server, so you don't need to worry about setting up some banner-infested webspace or using your ISP's webspace. We'll serve the images from our own dedicated server.
You can put in as little or as much information as you like. Only put in pictures if you want. If you don't have any pictures, just put in your PC stats.
What is the data used for?
The pictures section is obviously for you to showcase your system. The statistics section is a searchable database that can be used for many things. It could be used to see what hardware if overclocking the best, and to check if people are running hardware successfully with other hardware. It can also be used so that when people ask what hardware your running, you can just give them a link to your pc stats page.
How do I get started?
To the left is the main menu. You can add your PC there, and on the first page choose if you want to just upload pictures, or add full statistics. Remember, you can skip any sections or questions you're unsure of or don't want to answer - what you put in your entry is up to you.
Can I put in more than one PC?
Of course! Each one has a unique name, so you might want to make them, if your name was Jim, Jim-Linux, Jim-Windows.. or Jim1, Jim2 etc.
Where can I ask questions / discuss the PCDB?
You can ask questions about the PCDB and the PCs in it in this Overclockers Australia forum.
