i never approached companies especially not in the beginning......it all came to me and most others. It comes to people that do what they do with passion and don't ask for anything in return. Pretty much all companies that sponsored me over the years have been fair and accepted my terms before sending me anything thanks to good advice from eva2000 before i took up my first ever offer from none other than Nvidia themselves. Very respectful company, particularly their motherboard team
watercooling sponsorship is a tough gig though....not a lot of funding there to enable companies to send out lots of samples im sure.....

I think he and I probably were close considering I have only been in a game a few years. Nvidia, Intel, AMD/ATI, Crucial, Danger Den, Koolance, Bitspower, Feser, Performance PCs, Silverstone, Asus, Mountain Mod - not a bad bunch. The only company that ever turned me down was AC Ryan because they said they only sponsor world-class modders or something of that sort.
Now we both work for companies so we are on the other side I guess (though I still get sponsored stuff for my personal builds).
