This event was Hosted in the ESL Studio One in Cologne and was live streamed via the NVIDIA Twitch channel with localised streams in participating countries – including theGerman, French and Polish NVIDIA Twitch channels. You can see all links below. Unfortuenately, after a week of waiting, NIVIDIA still did not have released a video with all the highlights and that was the reason we have been waiting to release this report until now. The best was to find the most imformation about this event is to use the hashtag ‘#GTXChallenge’ on twitter.com. Here are the links to NVIDIA’s Twitch channels.
