History

Originally bit-tech.net was designed to be a small site where people who were interested in case modding could see new ideas from the team and discuss them in the forums, due to the relatively small presence of modding at the time.

It has since diversified and, along with the trend-setting case mods, bit-tech now also features detailed reviews of computer hardware as well as computer and video games, industry news and editorials. There is now increased coverage of console games, though PC games are still the major focus.

Wil Harris was Editor-in-Chief of bit-tech for almost six years and in February 2007, he announced that he was stepping down[4][5] the end of March 2007 to move onto a fresh challenge. At the time, Wil's successor was not announced and it wasn't until April 2007[6] that Tim Smalley announced that he would be taking over as Editor with immediate effect. After Tim had successfully integrated the site into the Dennis Publishing technology portfolio, he stood down as Editor in April 2010[7] after launching a new consumer technology website at Dennis, Expert Reviews, at the start of the year. Alex Watson took over as bit-tech's Editor with immediate effect.
