Meet the people pushing their PCs to the limit @ PCGamer
I caught a link to this story on my FB stream and thought it would be a good thing to share. Vivi is an Extreme overclocker from South Africa, very humble and extremely good at overclocking. Sure some of that can be attributed to quality of hardware but only if you know how to use it.
Frames per second are an afterthought for Goddy ‘Vivi’ Roodt, South Africa’s champion overclocker who placed second in June’s G.SKILL OC World Cup and once coaxed 6.7 GHz from an i7 4770K—almost twice its base clock speed. He is one of a breed of elite overclockers who scour component lines for perfect specimens and cool them using dry ice or liquid nitrogen for an edge on competitive benchmarking leaderboards.
“That 4770K was a cool story,” Roodt says. “Some guy used it 24/7, and the box price is about $270. When I saw how well it performed, I messaged that guy and said, ‘I’ll give you $1,000 for your CPU.’ He was quite happy about that!”I remember that story and is one overclockers tell all the time. Funny thing is that grand he spent on the CPU paid for numerous trips around the world (Las Vegas, Taiwan, etc), won him prize money and even landed some sponsorships. Of course now everyone has moved to Skylake and thus the clock has been reset.

Haivision Brings Cloud-Based Video Solutions to Microsoft Azure Marketplace
MONTREAL, Nov. 4, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Haivision, a market leader in video streaming and media management solutions, today announced the availability of the Haivision Media Gateway on Microsoft Azure, giving enterprises and broadcasters a flexible and cost-effective solution for transporting high quality video for live events, broadcast backhaul and distribution.
With Haivision Media Gateway on Azure, organizations can utilize the benefits of the cloud to scale their live video workflows with minimal IT intervention. The solution provides ease of set-up and commissioning, without putting a strain on the network at the source location, bringing a welcome alternative to the long lead times, prohibitive costs and scheduling challenges associated with satellite and MPLS networks.
Broadcast and enterprise customers can use Haivision Media Gateway in the cloud for:- Transporting high quality live video using Internet connections: Powered by Haivision's fundamental video transport technology – SRT – the Haivision Media Gateway enables customers to use low cost, readily available public Internet connections to transport secure, live, HD video to and from multiple locations around the world. The Haivision Media Gateway with SRT also features different options to easily manage firewall traversal.
- Enterprise video distribution: With Haivision Media Gateway, organizations can now easily distribute live events from remote sites like hotels and satellite offices, by sending a single stream to the cloud before being distributed to multiple facilities or redistribution points with low latency.
- Broadcast backhaul and distribution: Organizations can use the Haivision Media Gateway as a video network bridge to transport video between studio environments. For broadcasters, this means an easier way to backhaul video to a centralized production venue before being distributed to remote affiliates.
"Cloud-based video workflows are revolutionizing the potential of live video within the enterprise and broadcast markets," said Peter Maag, Haivision's CMO. "These industries are becoming very comfortable with the simple provisioning of cloud resources in contrast to the complexity of contracting satellite or custom networks."
"With Haivision's inclusion in the Azure Marketplace, we're extending our platform to support customers with enterprise video and broadcast solutions – bringing a more flexible and scalable solution for video transport using the cloud," said Venkat Gattamneni, Group Product Marketing Manager, Microsoft Azure.For more information about Haivision Media Gateway in the cloud, visit Haivision on Azure Marketplace.

TubeMogul Launches Select Access to Automate Private Inventory Management for Brands and Agencies
EMERYVILLE, Calif., Nov. 4, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, TubeMogul (NASDAQ:TUBE), a leading enterprise software company for brand advertising, announced the launch of Select Access, a transparent and controlled programmatic reservation interface that streamlines direct deals between marketers and leading publishers. Select Access enables brands and agencies to express their demand for premium inventory to a select group of publishers and use software to automate the access to that inventory.
Select Access is comprised of two solutions, On Demand and Direct Sales Reservation. On Demand simplifies the non-reserved private deal process for both advertisers and publishers by enabling access to programmatic inventory from premium publishers while ensuring those publishers have full control over the terms of the transaction.
Direct Sales Reservation enables TubeMogul clients to automate their reserved inventory requests to the sales team of a select group of premium publishers and operationalize deals through the TubeMogul platform. In this way, the software brings increased automation to new agreements between brands, agencies and premium publishers.
At launch, over 50 top TV networks and media companies are integrated with Select Access, including A+E Networks, Discovery Communications and Univision. Approximately 2.4 billion video impressions will be available via Select Access in 2015.
"A+E Networks has consistently led the way in delivering television content via A+E digital platforms. Select Access helps us highlight our premium inventory to agency buyers while automating and streamlining many of the direct and ongoing deals we have with top marketers," said Sarah Shriver, VP Digital Ad Sales at A+E Networks.
"With a strong portfolio of powerful brands and premium video offerings, Discovery Communications partners with advertisers to reach highly engaged audiences with impactful solutions," said Harold Morgenstern, Senior Vice President of Digital Ad Sales at Discovery Communications. "TubeMogul's Select Access is a welcome addition, allowing us to deepen existing partnerships with brand advertisers and facilitate new, direct deals."
Over 10 clients have already tested or committed to use Select Access, including Lenovo, Empower MediaMarketing and Trilia Media.
"At Empower it's our constant quest to push the media status quo for our clients," Jim Price, Empower MediaMarketing CEO and president, said. "With Select Access we can deliver premium content to audiences through an agile automated platform that is cost-efficient for our clients."
"While programmatic has indelibly altered the media buying landscape, the reality is that some direct and private deals are still negotiated manually," said Katie Thompson, VP of Platform Media / Group Media at Trilia Media. "This product shows promise because it extends the benefits of automation -- like streamlined buying, optimization and reporting -- to many of these deals."

Users can deepen exchanges with each other by posting comments on their own experiences, or by starting new topics. (Note: In order to post comments and add articles to "Favorites," free user registration is required).
User-friendly interface promotes exchanges between users of various age groups
The intuitive website design enables people of various age groups, from those in their 20s to seniors, to use it with ease. This site provides a community forum for consulting with others, giving and receiving advice and exchanging information concerning healthcare among people with similar interests or problems across age groups. Moreover, in February, this site will evolve into a new healthcare community site that matches users with similar interests and preferences by using UBIC's cutting-edge AI technology, thereby making it easy for users to find information best suited to their needs.
Soon to become an AI-enabled website that offers personalized recommendations
In February 2016, Kenkojiman.com will be equipped with UBIC's proprietary AI system that can learn and reproduce human intuition and thinking based on a limited amount of data. It will recommend articles suited to users' preferences or related to their problems as well as to website visitors who may be able to share their thought. Kenkojiman.com will be a new type of site that can help to address individual users' healthcare problems.
By reviewing comments from ordinary users through Kenkojiman.com and by analyzing the opinions and behavior of a broad range of people, UBIC and Rappa aim to develop an AI system capable of offering the best possible user-to-content, matching and enhancing user-to-user relationships. In the future, the two companies will extend the application of the AI system beyond the healthcare field and accelerate its business expansion in the marketing field.
