Master PJ Massman was a bit forced by MSI's guy Dennis. Putting pressure on him to "break records". There was even a sabotaged run. Another MSI employee pulled the power cable, accidentally or not ? This persons wanted to remain unknown. So we will just call him Niels from now on.

Time for the prices :
By taking a gues on the highscores of the day. As mentioned before the students used 10 x58 systems and 10 Z68 systems. All predicted scores were nicely kept by the charming wife of Manu in a excel sheet on her little netbook.
Not by the highest score of the day, but the one at 16.00 or 4.00 PM.
for the Z68 and x58
Lucky number 1 was Ferdinand Aequitis winner of the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr II and Dennis that smile looks much better!
And the winner's name of the Corsair memory kit was Gregory Broothaerts , sorry bro but we have no further info about you. Well also one lucky guy, in red Jeroen from Corsair.
At the end of the day a real unexpected finish. Each one that wanted to participate in a lucky raffle, was attributed a nr in the netbook of Manu's misses.
Manu from Tones told us Intel had sponsord a intel system.
Just by random choice made by the barlady
Sorry for the outfocussed picture (edit : shaky hands Peter ?)
His name is nedernakker. Winning a nice setup today and a future dad every minute now. Cellhone within reach he didn't even knew if he could stay till the end.
Being one of the teachers and a real master of overclocking. You lucky ......
What a great day, and this wasn't possible without the help of the teachers and all the fun people from Tones!
Did we all had fun, o yeah baby...
Merely positively reinforcing a performance by setting a certain level of expectations.
Which I wouldn't have done if I didn't trust PJ's capabilities
