History
Overdrive PC began in 1999, by Mario Cifaldi, in Atlanta, Georgia as a builder of overclocked gaming PCs. In 2001, Overdrive PC was offered an opportunity to appear in Maximum PC's boutique roundup article entitled "Minor League, Major Performance". The review that appeared there helped propel Overdrive PC onto the national stage and earn it the rabid enthusiast following it still enjoys today. In February 2009, 2 years after being acquired by Velocity Micro, Mario Cifaldi left Overdrive PC.
