Any update on fixing the tags?

there's no real coverage as all the people who could post some coverage are still sobering up
Should have been press before the event, since there apparently was live stream coverage ......

What's the deal, ASUS has an OCing competition and there's like almost zero coverage of it?

Spent a couple hours trying to figure this out today. Finally got it installing using the Z77 6.0Gb/s sata plugs. All the other ports gave the 7B error.

^^^Agreed. Pay the people you owe for your bad trading practices!

It might be longer then you're use to, but it's my first video project. Don't hate to much
EDIT: Fixed resolution and made as single video instead of four.

Think I got everything updated. Added OCTV's trailer to the OP as well.
Instead of added an additional stream to the mix, OCN is teaming in with OCTV's live stream.

Cool! Might be interesting to keep track of the different media covering the event this year too.
Fyi - there will be an official MSI livestream.
Yeah, just got that email from MSI. There was some miscommunication about live streaming. Still not sure who is doing the streaming though.
I would be glad to add links to any other media coverage for this event. Just let me know and I'll add them.
An update: The event venue is National Taiwan University's Sport Center.

ABOUT MSI MASTER OVERCLOCKING ARENA
"The MSI Master Overclocking Arena (MOA) is hallowed battleground for global overclocking masters. Every year MSI invites worldwide overclocking gurus, through on-line or on-site qualifications, for a high-tech showdown. Equipped with today's most powerful computers, each invited master challenges the limit of their equipment with their excellent overclocking technique, to win the honor of being crowned the worldwide overclocking master. These overclocking masters break world records under close watch of global media and fellow overclocking enthusiasts. MSI has achieved notable milestones in the field of extreme overclocking. Apart from the players-focused annual MOA contest, many other overclocking events are also hosted online or on-site to break worldwide overclocking records. The globally watched MOA competition has become the flagship of these overclocking competition series." Quoted from MSI's MOA site
I'm here to say that this event is very much closely watched by most competitive overclocking teams, as we route for our top overclocking teammates who spend loads of time and money overclocking MSI motherboards and graphic cards in attempts to make it to the finals in Taiwan. Weather or not they are MSI fans, overclockers from around the world watch as their teammates take the year's top-end hardware to its limits. The event just seems to get better and better each year as MSI is dedicated to continuing to improve their products, and here is their gift to the overclocking community a stringent competition with awesome prizes throughout the qualifying rounds and free trips to the top overclockers in the world to the finals in Taipei Taiwan.
