    Philadelphia Liquid Nitrogen Party - You Are Invited

    LN2, booze, overclocking. Your kind of party? Overclockers Benching Party, June 17th-19th, Philadelphia, PA



    Last year it was a private attendance event in Tyler, TX... Everyone had a blast. Pictures & summary

    This year its in Philly, and again we'll be ordering 540-720L of LN2, depending on the number of attendees. If you are interested in benchmarking with us, or just coming to hang out, send me a PM.

    Thraxis, let me know if you need any assistance with directions, accommodations, etc. Spectators are welcome!

    ...Fistpumps are frowned upon however.

    There will be no fist pumps from me. And I'll be fine getting there, just will have to see about work schedule and such around the time. Not all Jersey kids are like the god awful show

    Do you have an idea of what time it will be starting each day yet?

    If it is not started by 5PM Friday, I will start it then... I have an 8 hour drive on Friday to get there. Quite likely others will "unofficially" get started earlier. It ends Sunday evening.

    Some people will probably be in the conference room benching around the clock. There will be livestream.com broadcasts each day for anyone who can't attend.

    While XS has some awesome LN2 parties (best known at CES), this one is being put on by OCF, so it's not only XS.

    Hope to see some XS folks on the livestream! Wish I could go, just can't make it unfortunately.

    PM'd. I'd only need a spectator pass as I don't bench as much as would bring a cascade or phase units for everyone to play with.


    If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.

    Nah, too busy and I'm lame when it comes to overclocking, really. A chip that I can get stable at a max of say 3.8GHz is easily a 4.4GHz chip in somebody else's hands
    But thanks for the offer!

    which is why you should attend events like this, it's all about helping one another and boosting performance... 2 Minds are always better than one...

    Send me a PM please if you want in, and I'll add you to the guest list... That's how I'm keeping track of who is planning to show up, or who would just "like to come".

    We'd love to have you there. One day spectator is $5, otherwise its $10... If you want to go cold its $45, bring gear and we'll help you insulate and get rolling. (lots of people going haven't used LN2 before)

    First time we had this party was in November, and I hadn't ever used LN2... I poured for people, but I didn't bench anything as I was managing the coverage on livestream and updating viewers at home. It got me hooked, so I bought the stuff I needed, and have been going cold since.

    For anyone that's interested, this is happening starting TODAY! Barring complication (such as the lovely traffic jam IMOG finds himself in right now), the livestream should be up and running at 5pm EST. There is already 540L of LN2 at the hotel waiting to be used. It's just a matter of time before things get frozen!

    Check out all the details in the article IMOG wrote yesterday.
