December 7, 201411 yr No, this is primarily for overclockers who are already attending CES. For those attending, there's the option the bench on the freestyle day. But you have to already be at CES.
December 9, 201411 yr Yeah, just your best kingston/hyperx memory clock and then the list is drawn randomly
December 12, 201411 yr So in reality you just have to use Kingston/hyperx memory and do a frequency submission to grab one of the open seats? No problem just confirming. Edited December 12, 201411 yr by Gunslinger
December 25, 201411 yr DAMN! if only i had a car... or something I live in AZ. And i have been dying for an excuse to whip out my kingston bdbg kit ESPECIALLY to introduce it to some COLD -tatm
December 30, 201411 yr HyperX doesn`t allow varand to participate in Final Competition at CES because he is from Iran and Called him "Terrorist" !! we are realy Scary? So sry for kingston and HyperX
December 30, 201411 yr Greetings to all Sandra does not by correctly answering. Varand also not participate in the final competition. So sry for kingston and HyperX Good luck Edited January 1, 201511 yr by Aliover
December 31, 201411 yr HyperX doesn`t allow varand to participate in Final Competition at CES because he is from Iran and Called him "Terrorist" !! we are realy Scary? So sry for kingston and HyperX No one called anyone such a name. Please don't talk this way ...
December 31, 201411 yr I highly doubt that they'd do that. Edited December 31, 201411 yr by TheMadDutchDude
December 31, 201411 yr Just to clarify, I think the misunderstanding come from the highest level of embargo by the US (targeting 5 countries including Iran) being called "State Sponsors of Terrorism", the US Department of State gave it this name not Kingston. We really misjudged how serious the subject was and the implications it can have for any US company. Kingston put a lot of effort for clarifying the situation between the end of the EMEA qualifier and the last communication with the Iranian contestants, it was reviewed by the legal departments and advisors back and forth. For more information on the sanctions you can look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargoes#Countries Again it is very unfortunate we can't have Varand at the Finals in Vegas but it is completely out of our control... His spot at the Finals will not be filled by someone else.
December 31, 201411 yr Ahh this sucks, sorry to hear. Too bad the USA is so stringent "protecting" us. Shame
December 31, 201411 yr Sad news indeed, less issue in doing this in Taiwan... or closer in Canada * wink wink * Thing put apart, There is nothing Kingston could do about this at it come from the GVT iself
January 1, 201511 yr Sad news indeed, less issue in doing this in Taiwan... or closer in Canada * wink wink * Thing put apart, There is nothing Kingston could do about this at it come from the GVT iself The issue is not the location of the finals but that Kingston Technology is a US company and because of that has to follow the US department of State policies.
January 1, 201511 yr @marmott tnx for your explaining but! we spend many time and cost for this competition, if iranian will not allowed at final, kingston must reported to HWbot and HWbot make a news (because of that we dont know HWbot adminastator as a responsible), after End of competition beside of not fair play, kingston easily said you cant be at final + we cant send your prize! our team like others team never waste their time and many but now happend and explain is not enough dude, kingston can Compensate the costs anyway!
January 2, 201511 yr The issue is not the location of the finals but that Kingston Technology is a US company and because of that has to follow the US department of State policies. Indeed. that is actually a bit ore difficult, i was thinking in a way it wouldbe taiwanese company with 'branch office"... Anyway similar things happenned in the past at other competition with countries not able to display their flag because of this kind of political issues
January 3, 201511 yr I will be there.. didn't have memory to make a sub. looks like there is going to be 17 empty seats..?
