I've been getting pretty bored/annoyed by all the "HAYO"s on pretty much every page. Would clearing them out where I saw them anger people? -- [[User:Norgg|Norgg]] 18:16, 29 December 2011 (CET)

I will clear the "HAYO"s on the wiki. --[[User:Tag360|Tag360]] 12:43, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

How do I gain the ablity to edit my Userpage? --[[User:Tag360|Tag360]] 15:09, 16 February 2012 (CET)

{{Reply|user=Feanturi|space=:|agree=ask^^|reply=You just have to post on your talk page (like you did), whether a mod can create your userpage. btw you page is created^^}}

I just wanted to thank the team of editors for making this wiki. It is by far the best of any mod and actually of most wikis I have seen. I have never had any issues finding anything or gaining info. Thanks Again! -Offboss

== How come I can't create a new subpage at userpages? ==

What is the reason users can't create a new subpage on their userpage? --[[User:Tag360|Tag360]] 13:20, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

==Is anybody answering the Talk Pages?==
I'm still waiting for a response on certin questions on Talk Pages, leading me to think nobody are checking the Talk Pages anymore. --[[User:Tag360|Tag360]] 13:20, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

== Ask for Multi-language Support ==

IC2 is such a popular technical mod that it has spread all over the world. So I want to ask for multi-language support. I recommend German, French, Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Spanish. --[[User:Sjjklh|Sjjklh]] 10:08, 7 November 2012 (CET)

== [1.4.2] Open Beta v1.108 ==

Hi,
Can we add the v1.108 open beta into the update part or a new special part ?

== Add beta downloads to the Main Page? ==

It would be great for users if they could find beta downloads in the main page, rather than going through and searching in every forum post.
 
There's a open beta right now for 1.4.6 (IC2 1.112) at

Overclocker upgrade

2012-10-20T15:03:46Z

Wiki-asd-97: Changed note to a more objective manner.

[[Image:upgradedmachine.png|right]]
Revised 2012-02-28 by Xenoflot for 1.71 power consumption

An [[overclocker upgrade]] can be used to speed up machines at the cost of higher energy consumption. Place one or more [[overclocker upgrade]]s into the four right-most slots to upgrade a machine.
<div style="float:left;width:280px">{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=10K Cooling Cell|B1=10K Cooling Cell|C1=10K Cooling Cell
|A2=Insulated Copper Cable|B2=Electronic Circuit|C2=Insulated Copper Cable
|A3=|B3=|C3=
|Output=Overclocker upgrade
}}</div>
Each upgrade reduces the operating time to 70% of the previous value and increases energy consumption by 60%. The [[overclocker upgrade]]'s effects stack exponentially. For example, two upgrades makes the machine operate at (0.7)^2 = 0.49 times normal time (100% faster) and use 1.6^2 = 2.56 times the energy (139% more). 8 of them will run the machine at over 8 times normal speed, and use over 43 times as much EU.

[[Overclocker upgrade]]s result in poorer energy efficiency (more EU will be consumed per operation). This results in a 12 percent increase in energy per operation per upgrade (0.7*1.6 = 1.12, (1.12)^10 = 3.11 ). While building multiple machines makes better use of a limited energy supply, but overclocking allows for reduced space and wiring requirements when time or compact construction are more important or energy is plentiful. The reduced efficiency can be mitigated by combining both approaches, dividing a number of [[overclocker upgrade]]s evenly between a handful of machines.

An overclocked machine's speed cannot exceed 1 operation per tick, so adding additional [[overclocker upgrade]]s beyond that point is useless.

== In Practice ==
Revised: 2012-02-28 by Xenoflot - Please advise me on IC2 forum of any mistakes.

'''tl;dr''' - Max speed benefits are obtained with: 16 [[overclocker upgrade]]s for [[Macerator]]s and [[Extractor]]s, 13 for [[Electro Furnace]]s and 10 for [[Recycler]]s;. In each case you're going to need to put in transformer upgrades, use glass cables and storage upgrades.

---

This section is intended to provide some explanation and practical examples for using [[overclocker upgrade]]s. This revision includes the revised power consumption for 1.71.

Each IndustrialCraft2 machine has a rated current draw (required EU/tick), a time to process the materials and internal EU storage. When calculating the effects of overclocking, we need to include these factors. The differences on each machine mean that some machines need more or less [[overclocker upgrade]]s to reach peak speed.

The main limit to the number of overclockers you can use is the power requirement. To make machines run really fast, you need to feed them with multiple power supplies, big ones. Also, you can't get it to process any faster than 1 operation per tick. Since there are only 20 ticks in a real-world second, you can never make an IC2 standard machine process more than 20 items per second.

'''Examples:'''

A standard [[Macerator]] draws 2 EU/t, takes 20 seconds per grind and stores 625 EU.

Five [[overclocker upgrade]]s are a great start. With 5 [[overclocker upgrade]]s, your [[Macerator]] draws 21 EU/t (which can be supplied by a single [[BatBox]]) and completes each grind in 3.5 seconds instead of 20!

With 8 [[overclocker upgrade]]s, your [[Macerator]] draws 85.9 EU/t and completes each grind in almost a second. You can still run this with copper cable but you'll need three [[BatBox]]es in parallel to supply the power. Alternatively, you can put in one [[Transformer upgrade]] (which allows 128 EU/t) and use an [[MFE Unit]] to power. Use [[Gold Cable]] or better!

As you put in more [[overclocker upgrade]]s, the power requirements keep going up. 11 [[overclocker upgrade]]s want 352 EU/s which would require 11 [[BatBox]]es or 3 [[MFE Unit]]s to drive. My suggestion is you put 2 [[Transformer upgrade]]s in each machine early and then you can just upgrade to MFEs and MFSUs any time you're ready.

There is a break-point when you reach 13 OC's on the Macerator, 10 on the Furnace and Extractor and 9 on the Recycler. The energy required per tick exceeds the machine's internal storage. As you approach this limit, you may see the machine flicker or stutter as if your batbox was running empty. If you put in one more overclocker, the machine will stop entirely. Now you need to add one or more [[Energy storage upgrade]]s before the machine will continue to function.

Maximum speed benefits can be achieved with 16 [[overclocker upgrade]]s in [[Macerator]]s and [[Extractor]]s, 13 in [[Electro Furnace]]s and 10 in [[Recycler]]s. In each case you're going to need to put in transformer upgrades, storage upgrades and use glass cables. The Macerator is the greediest and will need 8 [[MFS Unit]]s to supply the necessary power.
