June 25, 201213 yr Overclocker's language: I have a good all day CPU for sale! Means: Clocks like sh1t under LN2! Overclocker's language: Doesn't like voltage that much. Means: Killed another IB at 1.9V Overclocker's language: Good chip on air and water. Means: F(l)ucking CB/B on LN2 Marketing's language: Marketing's language: IB WR broken by mfc XYZ! Means: Here are some backups from last year ES -.- Marketing's language: DDR2600+ Z77 motherboard!!! Means: Go find yourself a chip with a nice IMC to show people that board actually works there.

June 25, 201213 yr From what I have picked up about marketing language: Power user = overclocker/enthusiast Overclocker = Only LN2 overclockers
June 25, 201213 yr Gamer = 12 year old overclocker state of the art = OEM-shit premium graphics = outdated, re-labeled low end trash from previous generations future proof = needs BIOS-update to work with todays stuff, may have limited support for new stuff exciting new design = we changes the colour of the heatpipes and heatsinks voltage tweak, 50% more V = we already editied the BIOS for you and saved you 3 minutes
June 25, 201213 yr Overvolting supported by MSI Afterburner = MSI: "we doesn't support overclocking" ^true story, had a rep tell me that
June 25, 201213 yr Marketing's language: DDR2600+ Z77 motherboard!!! Means: Go find yourself a chip with a nice IMC to show people that board actually works there. I've had a couple of boards, that could not do it despite that label it more translates into someone once did it before we had final revision...

June 26, 201213 yr "Industry first" = we'll make the fail product, everyone else will learn from our mistake and make something much better "New and improved" = don't even understand our own marketing, so hedged our bets on buzzwords "Class leading" = niche of an esoteric of an esoteric of a niche of an esoteric niche. "Ultimate" = We'll charge a mega premium for this, then tweak it slightly and gouge you again with the same marketing word "xxxxMHz CPU-Z" = best chance I have of making this component look appealing for sale Edited June 26, 201213 yr by K404
