XS OC Party - Thanks!

[Charles Wirth]

Thanks Gigabyte making it possible to put everything together, behind the scenes you were critical to everything coming together smoothly. Boards for both AMD and Intel to overclock with and give away. Thanks for dropping by and hopefully everything was to your expectations.

Thanks for the support Intel, having the big guns Francois, Keith, and Rahul for taking the time out of your schedule and sharing some big chips to play with. Many people came to meet Francois.

Thanks AMD for also delivering on the first ever helium event, the setup was creative. Sponsoring the location and dinner selection was much appreciated, Im sure the prizes the guys took home were unexpected as well. I was glad to see that Cooler Master was able to fill in with product when you had an unexpected failure.

Macci, Sampsa, SF3D, Thanks for making the trip and putting on a great show that everyone enjoyed. Succeeding on liquid helium live is definitely a huge milestone and glad you pulled it off at this event.

Cooler Master came through with some killer custom painted cases and high end power supplies for give aways, Thanks Lulu for sponsoring the Karaoke winners and dropping by.

Commodore donated a custom case and was in attendance, thanks Eyal and Taco, yes Taco for dropping by.

Koolance donated two blocks, Francois needed the upgrade from his dd and I nabbed the other. killer products, I am like a dog with a bone on this one.

EK donated a water block won by Movieman in the raffle

Thermaltake donated a few cases given away in raffle tickets.

Thanks Corsair for providing DDR3 kits for the Intel overclocking rigs.

Thanks Tony for dropping by, my apologies for the misunderstandings and glad we can work differences out like gentlemen. Im glad OCZRyder made an appearance too.

OPPainter finally made an appearance and closed the party.

Movieman, it was a honor to meet you and it is a shame we have to wait till next meeting for a formal dinner. Im glad you made it and enjoyed.

IFMU, SGT.Viper, BigE, and Infected thanks for the help at the event, each taking a small part to make the event complete.

Thanks Jake from EVGA for driving my rig for the event. Im glad you had a chance to play up over 5Ghz wish you had the right combo for a 6Ghz roll. I should have provided more input as I was always close by.

Huge thanks to Nvidia for coming through on a GTX 295 that was used on Jakes rig for the event.

Simon, looking forward to future events

Jasmine, you are a natural for being the first event and looking forward to more. You looked gorgeous and everyone enjoyed the time socializing with you.
