Gfinity Returns to EGX for the CS:GO Invitational presented by Omen by HP

Experience the world of eSports at the Gfinity CS:GO Invitational

For the third successive year in a row, EGX attendees will be presented with the opportunity to experience a premier eSports event, as Gfinity hosts the CS:GO Invitational brought to you in partnership with Omen by HP and Intel.

The Gfinity CS:GO invitational will be held live at EGX 2016, which takes place at the NEC, Birmingham from 22^nd to 25^th September and will feature four of the world’s best Counter Strike: Global Offensive teams, as they compete for a slice of the $100,000 prize pool. There might be some ridiculous wallbangs, humiliating whiffs, and who knows, maybe even some sneaky ninja’s; maybe some tears or jeers but definitely a lot of cheers.
