Kingston HyperX Sponsor Intel Extreme Masters Season 8

With the new Intel Extreme Masters Season 8 to start soon in Shanghai (China), the organisation is excited to welcome a new global partner for the entire season. Kingston HyperX, the high performance line of Kingston Technology memory products, will provide extensive support for the coming season across four major regions across the world, equipping the over 120 tournament systems used in the elite global pro gaming tour with HyperX memory modules to provide cutting edge performance for the world’s best gamers.

Everyone will be able to see HyperX introduced into the Intel Extreme Masters tour at the inaugural Stop at Shanghai (China) from July 25th until 28th and follow the global tour to New York (USA), Singapore, Sao Paulo (Brazil) and the World Finals.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary year, Kingston HyperX has already vested itself quite intensely into the world of competitive gaming via sponsorships of major team organisations such as Evil Geniuses, World Elite, SK-Gaming and many others. Their choice to step into the world of tournaments shows great dedication to the cause of competitive gaming as HyperX memory will become a vital part of the top of the line Intel Extreme Masters tournament computers.

In addition, live event visitors will be treated to a hands-on experience of Kingston’s top products at the various Intel Showcases to be found in the major trade shows the tour visits. For the opener of Season 8 at ChinaJoy, HyperX will have their own booth (#N4-01-2) with lots of giveaways and appearances by Team World Elite. For those from Europe and North-America, Kingston has set aside a number of online giveaways of “Product Bundles” that include HyperX Memory, USBs and more.

So join us in welcoming Kingston HyperX as the new global sponsor of the Intel Extreme Masters Season 8 and expect a lot of dedication and interaction between all of our fans and viewers throughout the coming months.

“We’re very happy to enter into a relationship with a memory partner with such close ties to eSports,” says Michał Blicharz, Director Pro Gaming at ESL. “HyperX is all about gamers so I’m looking forward to having a fantastic IEM season together.”

Kingston HyperX official, Annie Leung, HyperX Global Strategic Marketing at Kingston Technology “It is a very exciting time for Kingston HyperX as we align ourselves with one of the world’s leading eSports tournaments to deliver top quality competitions paired with the highest performance hardware to gamers around the world. We look forward to making Season 8 the best tour yet.”

Thank you Kingston for providing us with this information.
