Whois & Analysis for originpc.com

ORIGIN PC is a custom personal computer manufacturing company located in Miami, Florida.

Founded by former employees of Alienware in 2009, ORIGIN PC assembles high-performance gaming and professional-use desktop and laptop computers from third-party components, with custom paint and logo options.

Not to be confused with overclocking(mileometer/odometer).

Overclocking is configuration of computer hardware components to operate faster than certified by the original manufacturer, with "faster" specified as clock frequency in megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz).

Commonly operating voltage is also increased to maintain a component's operational stability at accelerated speeds.

However semiconductor devices operated at a higher frequencies and voltages generate additional heat, so most overclocking attempts increase power consumption and heat.

An overclocked device may be unreliable or fail completely if the additional heat load is not removed or power delivery components cannot meet increased power demands.

Many device warranties state that overclocking and/or over-specification voids any warranty.

A gaming computer is a personal computer designed for playing computationally demanding video games as an alternative to a video game console.

Gaming computers are very similar to conventional PCs, with the main difference being the addition of gaming-oriented components such as one or more high-end video cards.

Gaming computers are often associated with enthusiast computing due to an overlap in interests.

However, while a gaming PC is built to achieve performance for actual gameplay, enthusiast PCs are built to maximize performance, using games as a benchmark.

The difference between the two carries a large discrepancy in the cost of the system.

Whereas enthusiast PCs are high-end by definition, gaming PCs can be subdivided into low-end, mid-range, and high-end segments.

Contrary to the popular misconception that PC gaming is inextricably tied to high-priced enthusiast computing, video card manufacturers earn the bulk of their revenue from their low-end and mid-range offerings.

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for regular use at a single location on or near a desk or table due to its size and power requirements.

The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard (a printed circuit board with a microprocessor as the central processing unit (CPU), memory, bus, and other electronic components), disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives, optical disc drives, and in early models a floppy disk drive); a keyboard and mouse for input; and a computer monitor, and, often, a printer for output.

The case may be oriented horizontally or vertically and placed either underneath, beside, or on top of a desk.

Water cooling is a method of heat removal from components and industrial equipment.

As opposed to air cooling, water is used as the heat conductor.

Water cooling is commonly used for cooling automobile internal combustion engines and large industrial facilities such as steam electric power plants, hydroelectric generators, petroleum refineries and chemical plants.

Other uses include cooling the barrels of machine guns, cooling of lubricant oil in pumps; for cooling purposes in heat exchangers; cooling products from tanks or columns, and recently, cooling of various major components inside high-end personal computers.

The main mechanism for water cooling is convective heat transfer.
