Wink Online Overclocking competition for all you computer nerds

Hi guys,
We are hosting a very simple online overclocking competition to promote overclocking in India.
Thought some car buffs who also happen to be computer nerds might be interested.
Some cool little prizes to be won !

Details here - THL Overclocking Competition 2008

Cheers !
Amey

No sponsor, we are giving away the prizes.

@ LBM,
Sorry sir, this is an easy competition and i guess the prize is apt for it. There will be more in the future, for which the complexity will be more so will be the prizes !
