I've got to say Phoenix was a blast! A blast of HEAT!!! but it was really fun. We met a lot of new gamers and soon to be overclockers! I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as we did. Here are some of the high lights from the event.
Setting up our booth we have the ROG notebooks, G73 and G51
Scoping out the 3D surround before the event started! These are on Ergotech stands. Really nice stands for multi monitor setup! check them out: http://www.ergotechgroup.com/ We ran off the Rampage III Extreme with a 980X, 3 GTX480 in SLI. OCZ Vertex SSD, Corsair Dominator GT Memory, and Antec 1200watt PSU!
We also had nexgen phase units cooling our Maximus III Extreme Intel 655k, 4x 5870 crossfire also running an OCZ Vertex SSD, Antec 1200TPQ PSU, and Corsair Dominator GT mem kits! The G51 was used for ROG connect which was used for the majority of time for overclocking. the Maximus was running about -40 degrees C.
V2-V3 setting up the machines to bench
and finally the overall booth

Great pics, even better event! I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed working with the OC contestants.
I learned that every one has their own personal method of overclocking and its very interesting to see first hand!
I loved watching first time overclockers the most, you can actually learn from them just as much as they can learn from you!
I must say the 3D Surround was killer, lots of fun and very exciting.
