The show is taking place at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center in downtown San Jose, California. NVIDIA had the front of the convention center wrapped with some visual art, which looks sharp with the fountain and the great weather. The show doesn’t officially start until tomorrow, but as you can see numerous people were at the show getting registered to miss the lines tomorrow.

Taking a look inside the convention center it is clear that the show is ready for the grand opening tomorrow morning at 7am. The venue is fairly good sized and has a LAN party feel to it, which makes got us wanting to get in on some gaming later this week.

If you are attending NVISION 08 and signed up to be in the BYOC this is where you are going to be for most of the event. The BYOC area already had all the LAN cables run and is just missing the gamers!

Players will be playing PC games like Counter-Strike, Quake III, Warcraft III and Trackmania Nations during the course of NVISION 08 on the competition PCs pictured above.

All of the ESWC tournament systems were having an image installed when we happened to be there. This is done to ensure that each system is configured exactly the same, which is needed for tournament play.
