ROG @ BlizzCon 2011

[Brian@ASUS]

ROG and BlizzCon 2011 was probably the best event we've been to yet! We had desktops from our awesome partners of Cyberpower, Ibuypower, Digital Storm and Falcon northwest, and great sponsors/systems from Newegg and Fry's! along with some other partners helping us give out additional raffle prizes like Razer, and Steel Series, Logitech for helping us with our webcams and speakers, and Coolermaster with their cool notebook coolers, and thank you INTEL for helping us show off and let gamers play on the new X79 platform!

Before the show started, we met up with the twitter winners for the free tickets and $500 newegg giftcard. They were pretty stoked


And if you didn't know, all of BlizzCon's rigs have been powered by ROG motherboards for the past 3 years. This year they decided to use the Maximus IV Gene.

This was the first time Blizzard has let us show off LN2 overclocking at BlizzCon! It was definitely cool for ASUS and for the crowd. Check out the VOD below for some coverage.

People definitely crowded around to watch V2-V3 and The Nemesis on LN2 overclocking on the Maximus IV Extreme-Z and Matrix GTX580 Platinum




Our buddy Cory is so HOT pouring LN2.


Tweaktown did some coverage for us as well:

How is Cory at every event? It's like the two of them tour the country doing gamer events.

This was an awesome event and you guys did a great job. It was by far my favorite stop on the floor and we were there quite a bit. In fact, you can see my girlfriend and I in one of the pictures.
