NIGHT-TIME ACTIVITIES IN the halls of Hannover Messe vary from night watchmen looking funnily at each other to hordes of press, traders, buyers, distributors and employees of exhibiting companies stumbling around as another day is brought to a close.

However, rivalry between the companies can grow into open hostilities, as we witnessed last year with ATI and Nvidia, or this year's midnight-action between Corsair and OCZ.

According to our sources from AMD and OCZ, it appears out that several people from Corsair were putting Corsair stickers on gaming machines in Hall 23, where AMD-Samsung held their WCG gaming tournament. All the AMD machines featured memory from OCZ, its miffed man complained.

The stickers were removed by AMD staff in the morning, but mysteriously again later, after which some AMD a lot of OCZ people started to whine to the press. All in all, when the snow is randomly falling on the outside, some people have to have a bit of fallout on the inside. ยต
