Seems like a lot of fun!
It was great to hang out and participate. Good times.
Any pics of the stripclub action?, any benches of some chick or new unreleased hardware? :shrug:
I got a few pics in my Camera, the bench session didnt go that well, but we all had a good time I think, thanks Fugger, nice meeting shamino, IFMU, infected sin, Freak and the rest of the gang, nice bunch of guys.
Yea unfortunately the X48 ran into some condensation issues. Board is working fine now though.
I really wanna thakn Fugger, XS, and all the XS staff that made it possible. I had so much fun guys thanks again.
Thank for all these pics and nice results! It looks, that you guys have a lot of fun! :D
Nice ;) ... CeBit will be also great. ;)
would love to go to a cebit. But cant justify the plane ticket price, for something I can just read up on after the show in the comfort of my home
or in other words im a broke ass right now
very nice (cool) pics :cool:
126k omg :yepp:
Everything seems to be perfect: scores, atmosphere and so on
Just think about the collected experience of all that OCers there! :eek:
more pics please
Wait till Jinu posts he has a ton. I think I posted everything I had
All right, I am half awake now... :)
Going to setup some FTP sites in a day or so people can download their memories... :) In the mean time let me gather some up and crop/resize bunch of things from CES and start posting them up.
I only ended up taking about 600+ shots. I ran out of my energy before this camera's battery lost it's... (gotta love Canon for that).
As for just 126k... well it might have been just 126k to be honest with selection of what was available in both skills and components. We just haven't had good smooth going on it and I haven't checked yet but two of them might still be hitting it AFAIK.... ;) Definite hard cores.
Just woke up @ home :D
Nice Event, even if I haven't seen a lot of thing in the CC \o/!
I'll post pics and vidz soon ;)
Well, first of all, bit of self promotion lol... actually prototype for Biohazard computer :) This year a lot of companies are using local suites, conference room to show their stuff off instead of using floor in convention center.

Well, I thought it was kind of cute. Dolby booth... I wonder how much money they spent on booth just for that space...:eek:

Think that was the typical position of [ctx]Sgt.Viper for 50% of show :)

As we get ready we open outside window/door wide open for better ambient temp. And I was stupid enough to talk to Fugger about turning on the air conditioner.... :D Now people go in and out between warmer zone and freezing zone.

Haha, Fr3ak can't suppress a jawn. He should try to get some sleep, but I guess other guys aren't well rested, too :D
Is Trouffman there for O/C TV?
how bout the after party pics?
I cant believe those two lamers in sweatshirts all bundled up. I was in a t shirt geez. I think my hands got a bit of frost byte from the ln2.
So sorry on this thing guys. I usually do through run of show floor.
But this time, I barely had enough time to talk to vendors on floor and only took pic of what I thought was worth bothering at the time if I passed by one.
Lian-Li. They got new marketing design team and now seem to be going right direction on other than clean look cases. After all there are gamers market and youth oriented market which is good portion of industry now.
I will keep an eye out for some inputs on Lian-Li stuff myself and see if we can get community input through to them :)

Yup, X-box aluminum case prototype :)

http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0752.JPG
And maybe "econo verison" of Lian-Li ... steel aluminum combo. Lot of nice features on these ones though. might come under different branding.

Arctic Cooling. lot of interesting stuff
Can we say no vibration noise on that one? :)
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0717.JPG

Looking forward to level of performance on these GPU coolers...

Their CPU cooler.
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0704.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0705.JPG
One thing I noticed was lot of their products, heat pipe was soldered in with heat block. AFAIK unless it was solid piece this is the best way to conduct the heat through unless HIGH amount of pressure is applied (not practical for manufacturing as well as material concerns).
And their newest silence minded case... lot of passive cooling stuff with good design concepts. Design can use some change in shape and material. I already commented about that one so we will see.

This was scheduled event. We already had basically 2 overclocking session and one more to go by than. I am sure most of us were falling down drowsing away at this point.
Vince is... hard at work...
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0769.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0767.JPG
He is actually quite decent at this game... I was impressed :)
More benching...
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0770.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0780.JPG
Get back to work Vince!!! I am taking over :)

Pizza is in. I know for sure I ain't eating pizza for next few weeks anymore.
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0830.JPG
Not quite sure what these people are doing with table... after few days of straight benching and walking around... I guess anything can happen :):) (J/K)
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0834.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0835.JPG
Yup we are getting tad tired here.
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0854.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0855.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0882.JPG
Oh btw, thought that was kind of neat.
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0892.JPG
Poor thing.
People kept dumping Dry Ice in it for the effect and eventually, when night was over... I decided to pour some LN in it. I think someone else took this pic after all LN2 has evaporated. Yup fastest way for cold beer or soda or water ;)
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0894.JPG
Not much of pics this night sorry you young guys :)
We did take group pics but geez... the cab driver sucks at taking pic and lighting is... AWFUL. I am going to have to play with photoshop to see if I can get something out of that junk.
Sounds like everyone had a good time :up:
I see a Lian-Li PSU in that Lian-Li case...
Why does Fugger look so worried in this picture?
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0626.JPG
I think he was either too drunk or that cold assed LN2 looked good to him for some reason :P
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0909.JPG
http://www.vapoli.com/Images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0910.JPG
LMK if you want this gone Toufman :)
need more pron space?
http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/524a12f360.jpg
I take it that was at the Enermax booth?
ya. 16x160gb
not so much the capacity, but how they had those on idle with a quad socket board on only 650w with 62amp...me thinks something was rigged, but still a nice showing.
Well actually it had 4 CPU too on that enermax pic.
Honestly, under FULL load, PSU would have been busted is my opinion but even during idle, I doubt most PSU vendor with the same rating would have even pulled it off... :)
Very nice show off I thought. I got to talk to Joerg for a while and honestly from my experiences, Enermax has been very truthful and trustworthy company when it comes to PSU. Only thing I would rate really higher would be Zippy/Emacs but than you are talking about mucho $$$ and no fancy nice looking things typically.
PS) some of enermax psu is underrated for that new 85 efficiency rating which I thought was nice bonus.
I think It's already or will be available during the months, because we have a concour right now on SOC to win 5 of them ;)
Arg :o He's a better cab driver than photograph :D
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
You finally publish those pics xD Don't worry I wasn' drunk ;) but I love making thing fun...
Still uploading pics to private FTP server Trouffman :) In fact, all atendees this year will have access to it and there is no copy rights per say since I ain't making money off this pictures :)
Feel free to use it where you feel is right guys... For some people with slower access to internet, these pics are rather large (about 3mb a piece) and there are about 600 of them. Just ask me in PM for FTP access tomorrow or give me your address for me to burn DVD and ship it out to you :)
Trouffman, that indeed might be helpful. Actually my website should have enough to handle the volume between CES attendee without any problem I think. I get 3TB transfer a month in package and 300GB space.
However, I believe transfer from US to Europe would suffer in speed so mirror at different location like yours would be nice to have.
Russel Crowe? Well, guess that's a bit better than Gene Simmons... :eek:
::: Starts looking for who posted that and warms up the ban hammer::: ^_^
http://www.vapoli.com/images/Forum/CES2008/IMG_0751.JPG
I didnt see it in Jins post, so wanted to clarify.
That is, I believe prototype, case for an XBox 360. I looked it over a bit and spoke with one of the Lian Li designers a bit about a few things that I saw as potential and definite problems with it. Most he had already had them working on fixing.
Also threw in the suggestion to make a few alterations for those who are water cooling the xbox. Would give them a nice case to slap it into with little work needed on it and give them the full benefits of what they are interested in doing.
He was HIGHLY enthusiastic about my opinions and even asked about another case design he has in mind.
I can see a very good thing in Lian Li's future with this guy working for them.

Pouring that high? If I pour ln² I'm afraid to spill on the motherboard :D
Whichever is easiest for you Jin I'll fire off a pm to you either way. Great meeting you. DI in those Blue drinks = Jin is a funny guy
You are a nut Trouffman. :D
:eek: *hides* How long was the bus ride back? Hopefully it was shorter than the ride to vegas and also hopefully no incidents on the way back?? :rofl:
Was great meeting you too :) Actually damned DI made the blue drinks (Adios was name of it) taste damned good. It killed some of bitter taste remaining while making it much more mixed (even in my buzzed state, I noticed it was keep mixing drinks lol) Just gotta make sure you don't put too much to freeze some of it -_-;
You're a Trooper Marty thats for sure :up: Gotta love the dedication to XS ....Welcome to Las Vegas!....Ya'll have a Good Evening.....and thanks for Ridin the Dawg:D
