eSports organization NRG and computing giants Intel joined forces for a special event for gamers in Downtown Los Angeles.

On Friday, the Spectrum NRG Castle was transformed into the Intel x NRG Night Market to celebrate the recent release of Intel Core Ultra desktop processors. At the event, attendees were able to test out Intel Core mobile processors with a slew of games, including Street Fighter 6 and Gori: Cuddly Carnage as well as compete in a PC speed build competition powered by Newegg. Attendees were also able to check out a live filming of the Intel Live! community show co-hosted by Justin Robey and Trisha Hershberger.

On the main stage, beloved Valorant pros s0m and FNS formed their own teams filled with pros and influencers for the NRG VALORANT Clout Clash. Fans in attendance were also able to compete against Valorant pros at the iBUYPOWER 1v1 Octagon.
