You probably noticed the server outage we had on the weekend. That was due to the CPU fan failing on our webserver, which reported a toasty 90C before falling over. On Saturday Trent from AusGamers and I visited the Comindico datacentre where the servers live and revived them. The previous PCDB entries weren't very complete, so I took some more pics while I was there:

In other news, HitWise have contacted us with the results for last quarter:


Hitwise is pleased to announce that www.overclockers.com.au has qualified for a Hitwise #1 Award for the quarter ended June 2004. During this period, www.overclockers.com.au ranked No. 1 by visits in the Computers and Internet - Hardware category against other Australian websites.

This is obviously great news once again. We moved to the new servers last quarter and had some ups and downs while we sorted them out, so it's nice to see we still came out on top. Thanks to the OCAU Sponsors and of course you guys for making it possible.

Apparently PC Authority mag listed us the top Aussie hardware site for July too. Not sure if they're using the HitWise data, but it's interesting to see who occupied the other top 4 places. :)

By the way, if you were on our mailing list you would have received updates on the status of the servers and info on how to connect to the site in the meantime. If you weren't, why not? :)
