    "British gaming clan Four-Kings has become the first in the UK to receive sponsorship from chip giant Intel.

    Under the deal the top members of the well-known gaming clan get new hardware, custom built computer cases and cash to help them travel to tournaments and pay general gaming expenses.

    In return for the money the team has to maintain its rank among the top gaming groups and win places at national and international competitions.

    Team members must also wear Intel-branded clothing when competing in public tournaments."
