    I <3 NCIX. I have everything but the ASUS board. As they say in the southern States, "Dern!"

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

    It's much like Tom's Hardware - competitions only in the States. I gave you my location. So why the h.. bother me with some (for me) useless competition?

    LOL yeah ES chips, LN2, Cascades are hardly average joe

    Then unless you have a ASUS board now spending what $400+ for a MB for a chance to win $1,000. Oh wait... I don't have a ES chip so...

    Good contest tho and thanks for coming up with these !!

    Although I feel your pain what you and everyone else has to understand is that Asus has divisions and this is being run by Asus North America.
    You get emails because you checked the box to get them.
    No way for the program to distinguish between what you would like to see and what you don't.
    Now if it's any consolation to you I'm in North America and I can't play either(staff) but I don't get mad about it.
    It's just the rules and thats life my friend.
    Crunch with us, the XS WCG team
    The XS WCG team needs your support.
    A good project with good goals.
    Come join us,get that warm fuzzy feeling that you've done something good for mankind.
