hey guys it's NR from Team SG. I was in Team Aussie for the 2007 AOCC.

just want u all to know that sanko and coolice really tried.

in fact once they collected their hardware i could not find them till the day of the compy.

want to call them for dinner also cant find them. they were camping in the room and trying.

in the end only went out with them ONCE for dinner!

can say they really sway. i also kena this sort of thing in the competitions i joined b4.. is really disappointing and sway but there's always next year!

i think my good friends sanko and coolice did really well. they did what they could and did their best

anyway that white psp is mine team sg no time to play psp but that was for my music.

not for me but the system haha~

yea i was trying to get them to join.... cuz they really been missing out on a lot of stuff. usual suspects team aussie, india, thailand, taiwan, indo all ard but malaysia always missing!

haha yea WE... needed to get stuff for family and all. so yup!

think i vaguely recall seeing u there too nice to meet u!

Added on July 30, 2008, 9:42 pmi agree! winning is of course a bonus. it should never be a set back or the main objective.

one can be there to win. but he should never forgo the chance to make friends from all over and learn soemthing new!

actually ah guys.. this one is beyond the NORMAL overclocking.

if you ask me... the true extreme overclocker hardly has to pay for anything...

for me i only pay for my CPUs and HDDs plus pots.

everything else is sponsored or provided.

you dont use your super expensive 9800gx2s and 280gtx and try to break wr. what if the card breaks instead?

i do think Malaysia is slowly developing in this area of sponsorship etc. Team KOC just gotta stick to it and keep pushing. provide good results for any kind of hardware tested and expand their forum coverage when they break a record to more overseas forums.

i remember when they posted 8800GTS record broken when mipmap was still a tweak. to me that was big and i am sure the big companies noticed.

i'm trying to arrange something with Gigabyte to see if i can come up and bench with team koc also. afterall its just a coach or train ride away and its fairly cheap we can get Gigabyte to sponsor Ln2 or something.

so yup! hope to catch u guys soon!

and yes dont pour water on them... i have hardly seen more hardworking overclockers than them. seriously... while i was out with the other teams having the time of our lives... Team Malaysia was working and testing...

I couldnt do that man.. will go nuts... haha~

seems like i am invisible....

dudes.....

its not about getting good hardware or passing on a chance...

u guys totally miss the point of extreme overclocking. it's not about who got more money or who can get better parts.. or what not. it's about slowly building a reputation and getting the right contacts and knowing the right people.

like i said. winning is a bonus. but the fact u are able to extreme oc means u have a certain skill the manufacturers want. to them u are a marketing tool. make it happen! it's not about winning some competition or what... it's about building yourself! your contacts and all! thats why i say its not about getting the right parts or having more money! it's about knowing the right people and then proposing to them how YOU can be of service to THEM! how u can help them and what THEY can earn. once they see how much they can earn if they support u in small ways. the big ways will soon come.

@ a1098113 i hope to see u soon in some records then... then we'll see if it is about the right hardware

the first thing u can do to prove it is beat my 3dmark06 score in the lyn database 24k only piece of cake.

it's a very outdated score of course. but beat that first then we'll go on...

i am sure coolice wont mind u coming up... and if ur really good enough.. likewise i can hook u up with the right people so keep it up okay!

if i do miss ur score. drop me a pm.

haha well yea subzero equipment for starters u need to invest. one cpu pot and one gpu pot. there after u can even get ur sponsors to pay

i dont have good cpus. very sway with them but sometimes loan from manufacturers and all! so it can happen man! just need to make that initial investment! haha~

good observation bro! ur right
