abit & PNY

abit

At the abit booth we were greeted by a large podium where two system were set up for head to head death matches, Fatality was doing his thing and contestants could win small gear for small kills, up to a complete PC if their name was pulled from the hat.

The ever popular shootouts, featuring Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel and the F-Players, were an instant hit. Players from the crowd were invited to challenge Fatal1ty himself and earn much sought after prizes from our host. A daily giveaway for a complete Fatal1ty Super-PC system was a huge drawing card and has attracted a lot of attention all throughout CeBIT.

Behind the podium we saw an impressive Chilly1 phase change cooling, which was being operated by Hipro5, unfortunately this monster needed 110V and Abit was unable to get a hold on a sufficient power converter, they mustered only ~750W but needed 2000W :)

The popular Quad Core ready abit QuadGT board was on display too powered by OCZ PC8500 memory sticks:

For several years now, I have been visiting the technology Valhalla in Hannover, and this year was no different. Leaving at 4 am on a cold Saturday morning, I left my cozy home in The Netherlands for a four hour drive. Arriving safely, I settled in comfy seats in front on the entrance, since the doors only opened at 9 am, DUH!
