Dinos its really nothing against you guys please believe me. You, James, George, Kosta, Gino, etc are all great ppl and I still consider you friends (hope its mutual). My decision was based on the fact that I want to advance past an "amateur" level. With i4, all the sponsorship goes to Team AU (rightfully so you guys rock and totally deserve it). I dont have much of a chance to be noticed by manufacturers being an American benching for an Australian team. I tried to first get around that by creating the Uberclocker OC Team, and bringing together some other North American members. I still couldnt get any interest, and I was actually asked by a Kingston rep why I was benching for an .AU team if I want sponsorship from US companies. Now I know your gonna say its going to be even harder to get noticed on a dream team with big names. I see it that way to a degree but also see it as a way to network and possibly make some good contacts. Basically this "hobby" is outgrowing my wallet and if I cant find some support somewhere, im going to have to cash in my chips. This economy has hurt my ebay business quite a lot tbh. Which by proxy means I dont sell as much hardware > less toys to bench with for "free." I really hope you understand where Im coming from. I wish i4 and Team AU nothing but the best. I would do anything I can to help you guys out.
Expect some points soon from my brother ILL-LOGIC hes going to have a bench session with me soon. Should be good for at least a 100 points as he is weak in many benches. Even though hes a lurker (works like crazy and plays games rather than browses forums) he wants to bench hard for you guys. And I willc ertainly help him in all ways possible...
Get me on MSN man YGPM
