GIGABYTE GO OC 2009 Asia Regional Final - Event Coverage

We just got back from Thailand, where GIGABYTE held the GO OC 2009 Asia Regional final, at the massive Pantip Plaza computer market complex in busy old Bangkok over the past weekend.

Top overclockers from Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam attended the event, each attempting to make it to the world final in Taiwan in June during Computex.

Each overclocker had to win their country final to make it to the Asia and South Africa regional final. The second runner up team of two from Thailand received $500 USD and a stack of sponsor prizes. The first runner up team was from Taiwan and they received $1000 USD and also a bunch of prizes. Finally, the Australian and Kiwi joint team had some good luck with their selected hardware and took out first prize of $2000 USD, sponsor prizes and a trip to Taiwan in June to compete in the world final.

We had a fantastic time in Thailand thanks to GIGABYTE and all of the other sponsors. It was great to meet and re-meet all of the overclockers from the Pan Asia region and also experience all that Bangkok and Pattaya has to offer.
