G.Skill annual overclocking events and system mod showcase at Computex 2018

Press release

G.SKILL International will be hosting two major extreme overclocking events - the 7th Annual OC World Record Stage 2018 and the 5th Annual OC World Cup 2018 - and the first ever G.SKILL Extreme Mod Stage 2018, where six modded systems built with the latest G.SKILL hardware will be showcased, at the G.SKILL booth during Computex 2018. These three events will be held throughout Computex week at the G.SKILL booth in the Nangang Exhibition Hall, 1F, Booth J0806.

7th Annual OC World Record Stage 2018

The OC World Record Stage is one of the biggest annual overclocking events in the extreme overclocking community, gathering 14 professional overclockers from around the globe to break as many benchmark records as possible. Featuring the latest Intel platforms, Samsung memory components, G.SKILL memory modules, and performance motherboards from major vendors such as MSI, ASUS, EVGA and ASRock, the extreme limits of hardware performance will be put to the test under a generous dose of liquid nitrogen cooling.

5th Annual OC World Cup 2018 - US$20,000 Prize Pool

This year, G.SKILL is increasing the OC World Cup 2018 competition prize pool to US$20,000, where US$10,000 would be awarded to the overclocking champion of the competition. The OC World Cup 2018 competition will feature the latest high-end hardware from Intel, Samsung, and G.SKILL. After an intense online qualifier round that ended in April, six overclockers from around the world will be competing live on the G.SKILL stage to demonstrate their overclocking skills during Computex week. The contenders are rsannino from Italy, Lau Kin Lam from Hong Kong, Dancop from Germany, Alex@ro from Romania, Lucky_n00b from Indonesia, and rtsurfer from the US.

G.SKILL Extreme Mod Stage 2018

A new addition to the G.SKILL booth is the Extreme Mod Stage, where six custom PC system mods will be on display, showcasing the creativity and works of art from professional modders. System mods breaks away from the traditional bland computer-in-a-metal-case and shows off the carefully chosen hardware in a unique themed build, so a high performance system can also look amazing while it's crunching away at a workload or running a game.
