That's right - a 2 day LAN party on the WWII aircraft carrier USS Hornet (not the one that is at the bottom of the Pacific, but the one that is currently a living museum in Alameda, CA).

Our company, NVIDIA (maker of awesome processors for PCs, consoles, tablets and smartphones), is hosting its 6th "GeForce LAN" event in the SF Bay Area:

We're working closely with Electronic Arts to showcase Battlefield 3 in a 64 player tournament area (try THAT on a console!)

Figured some of you would be interested and need an excuse to road trip it out here if you don't live nearby....

Registration opens in the next couple days.

 

ah no way wish my pc was done ok i wouldnt be able to drive down there

 

You have 4 weeks to finish your PC

And Creswell isn't THAT far...I just drove my 4runner up to Portland and back this summer!

 

i would love to go my pc could easily be done in a day or two if i worked on it ya but no offense i come from a town a few years ago only had 1500 people in it if i came to a big city i would want to go on a rampage lol

 

My PC is so old it cannot support it. Currently running a GeForce Ti 4200! LOL!

That was a solid card back in 2002!

Time for a DX11 upgrade

 

Yes it was. I built this computer in 01 and now 10 years later, many extra fans and a few hard drives, it is still working but far from flawlessness. Heck I still have a floppy connected to it and I never use it, too lazy to take it out I guess. I do not game anymore on the computer, all that is done on consoles like my Xbox.

Hey, so we sold out of our over 600 seats in about 2 hours....but there are plenty of "General Admission" passes available, which let you come on board both days, tour the ship, enter in tournaments, participate in free play, etc. When you consider the cost of a Hornet Museum Tour, the $20 cost for the LAN party is pretty darn good!
