MSI Master Overclocking Arena 2009 Grand Final in Beijing - Video Coverage

We just got back from Beijing, China where we attended MSI's Master Overclocking Arena (or MOA) 2009 grand final. MSI decided to host the event at the 2008 Olympic city as it themed the event in the same style, except with IT athletes.

There were about 100 people in the group consisting of MSI staff, overclockers and media from all over the world. As far as the competition went, there were a total of 20 global overclocking teams (two competitors per team) from about 15 different countries.

It was a truly international IT themed sporting event with Olympic styling and MSI managed to pull off the event rather well with an adrenaline pumped day full of extreme LN2 overclocking using the latest MSI X58 motherboard, Intel Core i7 processor, OCZ DDR3 triple channel RAM, Antec 1000-watt power supplies, NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards and Western Digital RE3 hard disk drives.

I ended up filming close to five hours of video footage from the event held at the stunning Shangri-La hotel in Beijing. I managed to condense it down to about 32 minutes from the original two hours by cutting all day long. We hope you enjoy the coverage video of the event. Watch it below!
