Velocity Micro Acquisition
In May 2007, Velocity Micro, another independently owned PC builder, acquired the former competing boutique builder. Since that acquisition, Velocity Micro has incorporated Overdrive PCs Hyperclocking techniques into many of its own extreme gaming systems. Overdrive PC has since moved to Velocity Micro’s Richmond facility and remains a separate brand under Velocity Micro ownership.
On June 12, 2012, Velocity Micro relaunched the OPC brand as a line of high-end gaming PCS, featuring an hex-core Intel i7 3960X Hyperclocked to 4.6GHz, 3 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680 video cards and over 2 terabyte of storage. The machine starts at $7,999.

Famous quotes containing the word acquisition:
“Wars and revolutions and battles are due simply and solely to the body and its desires. All wars are undertaken for the acquisition of wealth; and the reason why we have to acquire wealth is the body, because we are slaves in its service.”
—Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
