France live final is the 02/28 :) AND Benelux in March.

sorry but I think this kind of "casting" suxx!
why I must buy a Gigabyte Board to join this competition?

thats not the way to go I think...

doe's anybody knows something from German finals or something else?

Great stuff! Was informed that the North American competition will be April 24th-25th in LA. I unfortunately have exams the following week but I think I'll risk it just to go to LA again and see everyone :up:

Well, I'll probably get kicked out :D , but I guess I'll do it anyway :p:

The qualifier in Indonesia will be held at February 28th - March 1st, how about you Seth? Is Vivi coming? :up:

I'm kind of wishing the platform of choice would be AM3, it would make for some stellar overclocks :cool: Maybe this Core i7 D0 stepping will be available by the competition and make it a little more interesting.

For france it s EX58 Extreme + 940 or 965xe + 260GTX + 3*1Go kingston :D 4 Teams of 2 and afternoon with +100L LN2 :)

Gigabyte should do something like this for all countries. Open to anyone who can submit scores and then just take top xx number of people. Would level the playing field a little bit since it seems many people have contacts at gigabyte and just automatically get picked?

Yes! Cant wait for the locals, SA will be attending, just a matter of who wins the prelims!

Goodluck to seth Neo trax, the 4 of us gonna have an epic battle :D!

Gl luck ekky and alva! love u guys

hope to see you ausies again, T_m and dinoss!

The UK is having a qualifier at the end of February in Milton Keynes. No guarantees obviously but Jabski an me are hoping to impress and hopefully we'll see the rest of the Euro guys in April for a beer or many :D
