OcUK to the rescue at Multiplay i49 with repair/upgrade to your desk

Having bought a £92 ticket for Multiplay i49 and paid an additional £15 for early entry so you can sit with all your mates, the worst news you can receive is that your rig has suffered a fatal hardware issue in transit. Never fear, Overclockers are here – with an event repair and upgrade service that's second to none. KitGuru documents the plight of a gamer called Chris. Spoiler alert: This drama has a happy ending! 

Overclockers.co.uk (OcUK) won't make a drama out of a Crysis (player's pain).

At Multiplay i49, a large part of the huge Overclockers stand is dedicated to repairs. They are also offering an ‘upgrade at your desk' service for those that need more power during the event.

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, so here's the story of ‘Chris' and how the OcUK repair squad came to his rescue.
