Classified Rules clarification

I'm possibly going to be getting rid of my GPU soon, and the rules prohibit selling 'good clocking' samples - does this mean I can't mention the OC I've achieved on it, or just that I can't try and price it at a premium because of it?

I would think, the latter. One important note is that we don't permit profiteering, i.e. selling items for more than you paid for them.

I've never stopped a thread under this specific clocking rule, but one point that springs to mind is that you can't spend £150 on a new CPU, decide you don't want it, and then say you're selling it for £175 because it's a great clocker - even if OCUK or whoever are selling certified good clockers for £175.

Secondly, even if you're not profiteering, selling a CPU for more than a normal one is worth "because it clocks really high" is inherently risky. The likelihood of the person buying it being able to achieve the same clocks as you is unpredictable, as it's dependent on so many other things. They could easily be disappointed.

I wouldn't discourage you from mentioning that you've been able to OC a CPU/GPU, or that you've been able to unlock a CPU's cores from the point of view that all information is useful, but I wouldn't be keen on people pricing them higher as a result or guaranteeing those figures in any manner - especially when it's impossible to verify as a third-party.

Its a 670, which are generally unavailable (for anything approaching a reasonable price) anywhere so price will be more or less in line with EBay for similar cards. Just wanted to clear up that point.

I still think it makes no sense to have that as a default setting though
