The first official UK bench meet in over 2 years is happening in Sheffield on the weekend of the 26th-28th February 2016 at The Portal!This is a simple BYOC bench meet held at the portal in Sheffield, a well established LAN venue. This means that we will also have plenty of gaming going on over the course of the weekend for those who are not interested in sub-zero overclocking or pushing the limits of their PC’s in general.

Max capacity for the event is 30 benchers with room for another 30 gamers. Although there will be plenty of demonstrations with the option of an overclocking masterclass for beginners looking to get into the world of overclocking; run by some of the UK and world’s best overclocking geniuses.

The price is £30 for LN2 benching and LAN BYOC whilst a simple LAN BYOC ticket is only is £20. (Please note only benching tickets can be purchased currently, but more information will come in the upcoming weeks.

The event will be held at The Portal in Sheffield which is one of our favorite venues and sleeping will also be available at the venue inclusive of the price; shower facilities are also on site, but you are advised to bring a sleeping bag, pillows, and/or duvet. There are hotels nearby in case you wanted to live it up in luxury, although it should be noted the venue is a 24hr one so factor that into your train of thought.
