On August 14th, the Madshrimps overclocking team is heading out to the headquarters of TONES, Belgium´s most powerful computer shop, to demo the sport of extreme overclocking. Be there and maybe you go home with brand-new high-end hardware!

The Lucky Winners

The Lucky Six

The four participants joining this edition of the Tones Overclocking Academy through the Tones.be contest have been announced, so Madshrimps is following suit. The answers to the questions were:

1) 8199,5MHz
2) Leiden (as two participants figured out!)
3) 1st, both in GOOC EU 2009 and GOOC EU 2010

The six lucky winners, who can join the Madshrimps overclocking team next Saturday and still have a shot at the high-end system are:

  • Freestyler
  • Dafour
  • Roelientje
  • Rikske
  • Teemto
  • Kareljan

We are excited to meet 'n' greet with the six newly baptized Overclocking Enthusiasts at 9AM, August 14th in Tones HQ. Of course, if you want to see the overclockers live in action, you are welcome to drop by and say hi. See you all there!

First pre-testing done:

Hey boys and girls,

Are you ready?

Zonet even snel de setup getest om te zien of alles werkt. Op een PSU na, geen ENKEL probleem gehad ... super dus! VGA kaarten waren nog volledig stock (koeling én clocks); kwestie van nog iets in petto te hebben zaterdag, hé 8)

Het was plezant.

Thx mannen
Comment from Teemto @ 2010/08/14
Great to see the guys live. Definately needs a sequel (with more willing 4-way SLI). :-)
Comment from leeghoofd @ 2010/08/14
Glad you guy sliked it, some already knew the ropes of I7 OC'ing. Which infact is pretty simple with I7 reaching 4-4.2Ghz...

Thansk to the Sponsors again : Tones.be, Asus (Milan and Rogier), Intel and Corsair...

Hope to repeat a sortlike event next year...

Small article, with some piccies is in progress...

Next year, I'll be there

Too bad I didn't make it this year
Comment from Massman @ 2010/08/15
It was really cool to meet people who are interested in extreme overclocking, but are not doing it at the moment. It took me back years ago when I was in the same position. I really hope all the people involved had a good time and are getting more interested in the overclocking-thing.

Thanks to ASUS and TONES for hosting the event!

Vergeet natuurlijk Asus niet bij de sponsoren

De logo's van de sponsors zijn gehotlinked naar andere websites. Als je even niks ziet, ligt het aan die website (CTRL+F5).

One moment : your nick name Roelientje --> at first I thought you were female lol --> Then someone told me your real name was Roel :

Possible Options for my brains :

1) so either your family name is Ientje or Lientje
2) or your girlfriend's name is Lientje
3) or you just made your name up
4) Share the piccies all
Comment from roelientjeL @ 2010/08/23
Why roelientjeL ? I just used some random letters to create this name, haha!

Well enough explained?
too much info
Comment from roelientjeL @ 2010/08/23
hehe, fixed it
Comment from jmke @ 2010/08/23
I was joking Roel...
Comment from roelientjeL @ 2010/08/23
Haha, ok I'll re-spam it!

Well... about eight years ago I had this group of friends and we all had nicknames. Guess what, my nickname was Roelientje, lol. So I made my first msn adress with roelientje, but it was already taken so I added this letter 'L' (I still don't know why this letter, it has nothing to do with my surname).

Ever since then I used this weird name. If you can come up with something better, go ahead! Until then, I'll use this name and accept te fact that people think I'm either a man-lover or a female (or just someone nuts).

Neither of those things is true, btw.

Well enough explained?
