Another cheap way of flying in from EU would be to fly to Singapore. Then take a low coast flights from there with scoot.it or others for example. Might be slightly longer but can reduce prices by 25% I guess.

east europe ... hmm....

Small update to let you know that I've started a blog to write what's going on during the trip. Essentially picture sharing etc. Might do also a few geek hardware for camper reviews Anyway, have a look: http://www.backpackgeeks.com/ (Note the logo .. DIY, made with clay ... )

UPDATE All right, so far got four contact points! Ducan (dirtyd) in Melbourne Steve (Yamunza) in Cairns (I will join for the OCAU OC gathering if I make it in time) Jamie (Jimba) in Brisbane Ben (newlife) in Adelaide (can host) Will probably get a few more in the coming days, anyone else interested in meeting for a beer or that can host (a garden spot is fine btw) just contact me.

All right, got already 5-6 contacts! Thanks guys Keep sending me messages and we will arrange meetings! I have one more question though ... Is there somebody that is from China / or know someone in China that could go in a store there for me, buys something (cheap) and ship it to me? Its for buying the camping cooking set !

@Jimba, Cool! Thanks @ newlife, no worries. I'm here to meet everybody. Things as a nobody doesn't exist! Shoot me a PM and lets get in touch @Extreme addict... Bouahahahhahaha. If I go to poland I will be so drunk that I might be able to start my trip!

Hi guys, -> Note this is a copy of my post made on OCAU forum: http://forums.overclockers.com.au/showthread.php?p=15187582 2013, EPIC year in Australia This year, I took a short break to move live for a while in Australia (Yeah! French invasion). I am now since 6 months working at ASUS in Sydney, but it is now time for me to move on, back to the roots, back on the road and take an adventure that has always been a dream. I will be traveling all around Australia for the next 2/3 months (starting mid-April ). The plan is to visit each corners of Australia, starting from Melbourne then Tasmania, Adelaide, Perth, Alice springs, Darwin, Port Douglas and down the gold coast back to Sydney. Since I will be stopping in Australia's biggest cities, I had in mind of making a short documentary on Australian overclocking. The idea is to visit all of you guys that are volunteer to meet, and shoot some short interviews, or simply have a chat about hardware, OC or just life My point is to simply introduce the Australian OC community to the world, from it's most famous figures to the most eccentric ones. It's all about fun, friendship and overclocking! All I will be asking for is shelter for a night or two ( I have a tent etc. so I'm cool to sleep on the floor or outside in the garden) and a fresh beer. Please don't think about anything fancy, I like it simple. I will be traveling with my girlfriend which is an excellent chef, so be ready for a nice meal if you welcome us to your home! The schedule To let you check if you are free when I will be around, here is an approximate schedule of the trip. Things might change from a week or so, but no worry I will call you in case stuff moves around. Starting from Sydney... Canberra - 18/04 Hobart - 20/04 Melbourne - 29/04 Adelaide - 4-5/05 Perth - 11 May Alice Springs - 23/05 Darwin - 7/06 Cairns - 16/06 Brisbane - 26/06 (Newcasthe - 1/07) Taking contact What do you think? If you like the idea, shoot me a message below with indications of your city, contact details and favorite time. Feel free to ask any questions, and if some of your would like to join the trip for some parts, no problem at all! Fans of hiking, bush walking and photography are most welcome to join us in the adventure. I can also be contacted by phone (04-24-86-24-** - PM for last digits ), email (Xyala at overclocking-tv.com) or by PM on this board or OCAU's one. Thanks ahead for all participating hands! If you can't host don't worry, we can always catch up for a beer anyways. Again leave details so I can reach back to you on the spot. Enjoy!

Hej Peter, add me on the "maybe" list, not sure I will make it back in time from my road-trip around Australia, but If I can make it I will join in for sure

MOA in two weeks! To relax from the stress of the competition, here is a little trailer

Schedule of the MOA competition with benchmarks available! : http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/news/15668/msi-moa-2012-competition-schedule-and-benchmarks/ Same benches as for the qualifiers. SuperPi 32M, 3dm11 and 3dm03

Cool contest! Really a cool september initiative from gigabyte <3

Not quite sure that anybody wants to see right "through" you Pieter

Oh yeah! Congrats to Splave, Rbuass and gnidaol ! http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/news/13866/msi-moa-2012-americas-the-results/ Can't wait to see all of you guys in q3 somewhere

all right, so .. so far close to 50/50 for each side of America. Very nice, makes it even more interesting! http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/news/13798/moa-2012-americas-elimination-day-hits/

Seems like USA overclockers where mostly sandbagging ... 2minutes left, +2 USA in the top 15.

1h30 minutes left, who is still benching ?

okok, too bad it is not public, even more when it's in a university ... Made a little news about it: http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/news/13696/gigabyte-eoc-2012-event-in-germany/ (removed the exact location from it)

is this a public event? (meaning, can anybody join to watch?)

just tried to get hold on MSI for an interview to answer a few of the questions asked here but it failed ... will try to dig deeper http://www.overclocking-tv.com/content/news/13430/moa-2012-americas-competition-is-starting-today/
