In Pictures: Insanity At Gigabyte's GO OC 2010
More liquid-nitrogen madness takes place at Gigabyte.
Gigabyte hosts an international overclocking competition every year, with regionals around the world that finally end in a grand face-off in Taipei, Taiwan, at Gigabyte's headquarters. Get a load out of what went down this year in Los Angeles with all the photos that were snapped. We'll be covering the finals in Taiwan in full detail, so look out for that coming soon!
The winner of the LA competition was Jeremy Clifton, otherwise known as Sno.Icn. Clifton along with Michael Graf (mikeguava), both won an all-expenses paid for round trip to Taipei for a chance to win the grand-champion title.
