ASUS and Intel join the ESL One Cologne 2016 sponsor lineup!
ASUS and Intel will support ESL One Cologne 2016 with their newest technology.

We are happy to welcome ASUS and Intel as gold sponsors for the upcoming Valve major, ESL One Cologne 2016. All attendees will be able to experience their new technology first hand at the event, as the tournament will be played on high end-gaming monitors from ASUS including brand new gaming display, ROG Swift PG248Q with a 1ms reaction time and 180Hz.

ASUS will bring a huge booth area to Cologne where attendees will be able to play games, participate in raffles, meet the ASUS team and test their latest technology including the above mentioned monitor and the water-cooled gaming notebook GX700.

Ulrich Schulze, VP Pro Gaming at ESL, is looking forward to working with ASUS and Intel at ESL One Cologne 2016.
“We’re taking ESL One Cologne to new heights this year - and partners like ASUS and Intel are key for realising this. Not only is the event bigger and better, so is the technology we set as standard. We would like to welcome ASUS and Intel on board and are excited to see where this partnership takes us.”

Thomas Pannenbecker, ASUS Country Head in Germany for the Open Platform division, is excited to deliver the best possible tech for ESL One Cologne.
“We are happy to announce that we will support the biggest CS:GO tournament in the world in 2016 again. This year we will once more offer a lot of great activities for the visitors in Cologne and for everyone who watches the live stream online. We will also have the official gaming LCD for ESL One 2016 in Cologne. The brand new ROG Swift PG248Q supports 1 ms response time and 180 Hz (OC) refresh rate, making it perfect for competitive online games like CS:GO.”


A sentiment echoed by Jan Schneider, ASUS Country Head for the Systems division.
“For more than ten years we offer high end gaming devices and set new standards for the whole industry. At ESL One 2016 in Cologne we will demonstrate our watercooled gaming notebook, that delivers the same performance as high end desktop PCs, making sure that the Republic of Gamers can play the latest and upcoming games with maximum frame rates.”
