OCC Folding@Home Contest
Our last contest, the OCC Graphics contest, is barely over and now we're back with another! Here at OCC we just seem to love giving stuff away so listen up. The latest contest is for Folding@Home participants that are currently folding for the OCC team #12772. If you don't know what Folding@Home is you can check out the link here. You can join our team at any time during the next three weeks but the sooner you join, the better chance you have of winning one of the many fabulous prizes from Thermaltake, Crucial, In Win, NZXT and Cooler Master. Included in the prize list are cases, memory kits, power supplies and hard drive docking stations. The Boss is even going to throw in a few goodies of his own so make sure you check out the rules and complete prize list in the Folding Contest Forum thread. It's all for a great cause so make sure you get those machines folding as the contest ends March 9!
Update: The winners have been announced. Congratulations to everyone who won, and thanks for participating in the Overclockers Club Folding@Home Contest. Remember to keep folding even though the contest is now over. It's for a great cause, and you never know when we might reward our folding members again. ;)
