Im goig to keep this short and sweet because its been a hell of a day and Ive still not had any dinner!

Most of the day has been spent waiting aroud for electric to be sorted on the stand, and Ive had no wifi either too upload anything from the event.

Pretty much all I can say is the OC3D/Aria stand is all set up ready, the rigs are on the stand, checked and all good.

Bring on the press day tomorrow and then the public from Wednesday!

Anyways here are some pics, Im going to try and upload a video overnight (hotel net is slow)

Stand just a shell, not electric or signs ect, how it was when I arrived.

http://upload.overclock3d.net/images...1903959857.jpg

All the parts and rig arrived about 1pm but still no electric

http://upload.overclock3d.net/images...5819942676.jpg

About 8pm I finally got electric and got cracking leak checking, and stability testing. Few minor issues but I got round them and everything is up and running!

Looking good

Keep us updated Tom, it's a shame there isn't a live stream like they have at CES.

just need a megaphone now to draw people to the amazing PCs and away from Suzy Perry!

11-04-2011, 18:26:14

Steve Barnes

Rigs are looking nice,with stand theme,just a pity theres no live stream as SieB says,no way u can hook up a webcam and get on ustream?

http://www.ustream.tv/

I guess the wifi there isn't exactly brilliant like most live events though.

Oh, and dont be overclocking the leap frogs on the next stand!

Cant wait to play with them. They look sweet.

11-04-2011, 20:20:02

Game Over

Ya, live stream would be nice, Justin.tv or the one steve mentioned. Dont suppose they have a hard line to the net there? But then I guess you would have to run the stream through one of the PCs though.

This is great stuff Tom. It gives 'the kids' a chance to experience what an exhibition is all about. Congrats to you on your business also.

12-04-2011, 05:33:40

respect to you for putting the time and effort in, to making us realise all the hard work you are doing to make this possible.

SieB

Looks much better now the stand is all kitted out with the OC3D logo on and around the rigs, especially on the front of the R3, it makes it stand out even more

12-04-2011, 12:40:06

Grizzly

It would seem you're missing a chair.

Gona be all wobbly by the end of the show otherwise.

xCeased

Looking sweet there Tom, can't wait to see more videos of the rigs on show, maybe you could make one with the all having a game open 'Shift 2' or something and showing the FPS of them?

Holy bat $%££ batman, its the batmobile!!!

Joking aside, that cars classic!

14-04-2011, 16:55:16

Grizzly

If Acer were to build and sell those cases without systems inside them, they could make a bit of money.

Heck they could start a small product line so long as each case has one of those slide up front doors.

14-04-2011, 17:01:16

jiffz

Looks amazing, wish I was there! Any chance of a pic of the R34 Skyline??

Also, I couldn't help but notice a remarkable similarity:

http://upload.overclock3d.net/images...9680_thumb.png

(mind the poor paint skills)

Similar homes as well - Packed with gadgets!!!

14-04-2011, 17:02:37

SieB

Right, it's simple... I steal the Batmobile, grab as much stuff from the stands as I can and before I make my escape destroy the Alienware stand by driving strait through it and dounutting the car until everything is destroyed

Thanks for the floor plan Tom I can now plan it all out and come up with an escape route

14-04-2011, 17:19:40

marsey99

any chance of more pron on that driving chair?

3 screen 3d?

whats the hardware and can you buy them?

do you think they would notice if i cam down and stuck it the back of a van?

14-04-2011, 18:02:14

driftingforlife

That is a R35 GTR not a R34.

14-04-2011, 18:11:03

VonBlade

Another pic of the Skyline.

And I thought the GT-R Skyline owned by Vibe was the one with the red rising sun, so thought this was a R34. Ah well.

Cudos mate. Love the updates you are providing. Its a bloody shame that here in AUS we don't things like this. Tear shed.

There was also a canopy screen there on one of the racing sims, I didn't have a go but it looked amazing. Aapparently they are capable of 3D and use a projector.

This wasn't the one at the show, I think the one at the show was attached to a Vision Racer chair. There is just so much stuff there that you kind of loose track.

Tom I think you should go and check it out if you can find it, and then obviously swipe it for a lengthy review... Maybe 6 months or so...

The rigs do look Amazing in the flesh, not many white rigs there which made your stuff stand out even more. The water cooled SnowDrift looked brilliant, and I can only imagine the hours that that took to put together. My favourite had to be the Yeti, it just looks so clean and the white with the window might have to save up for one of those....

Just got back from meeting Tom at Gadget show.

Spent a good 2 hours talking together

The rigs look so cool in real life.

And my god those speakers were just amazing!

Thank you Tom for the goodies and the long conversation we had.

Jack,

Just got back from my dads and thought you all would like to see some pics from the live show. I wont post all of them but if you guys want to see them i will.

Just some of me and to having a laugh and a chat.

17-04-2011, 16:14:50

dugdiamond

why-oh-why, don't people resize their pictures before uploading them

there should be a rule that pics over 1080p will not be allowed

lol - 4000x3000 does NOT make ttl look any better

17-04-2011, 17:30:12

looks like you had alot of fun & @ tom next year im going my brother said you dont half talk alot lol

17-04-2011, 19:49:43

I've seen that Batmobile on the motorway before (or an exact clone).

It was on the back of a flat bed. It certainly got a double take. I took a few pics but can't find them.

No room mate, please remember its a huge deal I even got the OC3D name there. Technically the rigs were there to promte Aria. Also a bit pointless just having a team number, youd need a rig folding with fliers explaining ect ect - also all that on an AMD stand? I think not.

18-04-2011, 10:11:51

no vids of days 3-4-5 ?

Hopefully the exposure of OC3D.net at the event will gain us some new forum members. From there, Ray, we can convert to folders.

Well done Tom I think everyone can tell all the effort you put into the rigs for the event, wish I could've seen them in the flesh

18-04-2011, 15:01:28

I took my Nephew "Connor" to Gadget Show Live (sunday) and we met Tom (I have met him before at i40) Tom you did a great job of them rigs, the whole thing just looked awesome, and I think you might have converted my Nephew to a PC rather than Xbox 360, as he talked about them rigs the whole way home

Was great and thanks so much for the freebees

Hi,

For the Yetei you say: "In the middle is Yeti. No not VB, the system. This is all about hardcore gaming. A Silverstone Raven 2 houses a Gigabyte 890 UD3 motherboard and Corsair HX1000w PSU."

...but i cant help but notice the fact that it looks like a AX750W...

I did look again, and can confirm your saying. Sorry, but the images was lined up in a way that i probably misread. I saw the 1000W as well, but thought it was "used on the wrong picture". Nothing more to it...dude...

Good luck for the rest of the show. I've done the Southampton Boat Show with no previous experience. The hardest I've ever worked. I was just running on adrenaline by the end. Good cameraderie with the other stalls after hours though.

Plan yourself a few days relax afterwards.
