Intel is sponsoring the GSL. More specifically, this GSL is called the "second generation Intel Core GSL" (which is a lot shorter in hangul), where "second generation core" just means the i3, i5, and i7.



The remainder of the press release doesn't have any new information, except that



An aside: I have a hunch that Intel is also sponsoring whatever Inc's big announcement is, so essentially everyone should run out and buy an i7 asaply. Intel is sponsoring the GSL.

tok Profile Joined April 2010 United States 685 Posts #4 Definitely happy to see more interest in the GSL. Hopefully e-sports in other parts of the world will get the same attention.

"As a note of interest, GSL Mar. will feature girl group "Secret" (among many other planned programs), who have become famous recently after having achieved no.1 spot in the pop music program rankings with their song, "Shy Boy"."

That's TG-Sambo-Intel partnership, isn't it? This one is just Intel directly I'd reckon. That's TG-Sambo-Intel partnership, isn't it? This one is just Intel directly I'd reckon.

In all seriousness, it's great to see big corporations getting involved in e-sports! More exposure for everyone and everything involved, exactly what we need in order to get SC2 out there in the mainstream! Hmm... I smell a little advantage for those guys playing on the SlayerS clan...In all seriousness, it's great to see big corporations getting involved in e-sports!

Combine Profile Joined July 2010 United States 789 Posts #13 I love seeing Intel being so involved in sponsoring. I've been wanting to upgrade to a sandybridge pretty soon, just giving me even more reason to do so.



Also cool they are getting the kpop act there, seems to work well in getting people. (ಥ_ಥ)

Sandy Bridge processors themselves are OK. The SATA controllers were messed up on the motherboard (using specific controller). All the affected boards were recalled, and the revised version is set to be released soon. Sandy Bridge processors themselves are OK.
