"Only members of China may participate." - seriously?

Plus I don't understand why vendors always limit the competition to a level which is almost like "use OC Formula to win OC Formula". IMO it's better to give everyone a chance and if you win, you get a nice new board from different vendor, which you may like and this could make you change your favorite brand/board. Guess that's only my opinion...

It's an ASRock competition for the Chinese crowd, it's not international this one.

I agree the competition page might be a bit more clear. The problem here is that our competition limitations are always on stage-level, not on competition-level.

If this is only open to Chinese overclockers, why did all of HWBot get an email inviting us to participate?
