A lot of them I feel are legit, but those people that are posting their laptops I mean come on..

My first build, and a lot of the guys on this website helped me select components Oh and the super-beefy PSU was picked up for the same price as the 750W version of the same power supply

Specs:
intel core i5-3470 @ 3.20GHz
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (With added CM BC 120 as well as stock fan, both to be removed soon and replaced with a Noctua NF-F12 PWM)
Asus P8-H61M R2.0 Motherboard (aka worthless piece of junk )
8GB DDR3-1333 memory
Sapphire Dual-X r9 280x (3GB GDDR5,
32GB SanDisk ReadyCache/ExpressCache SSD (Cache drive)
2TB WD Green 5400rpm (Everything else)
XFX Pro Series Black Edition 1250W Modular PSU
Zalman Z11 Plus with:
Corsair AF140 x3 (1 in front, two on top)
Cooler Master BC 120 x1 (rear, plus one on the 212 EVO as mentioned earlier)
Zalman 80mm fan x2 (Sides, these are soon to be disconnected as so loud and produce about as much airflow as coughing through a straw does)

RazerZ i think that may be one of the reasons this competition has been run, to gain an influx of new members. Nothing wrong with that

Well I mean say one person could make multiple accounts and post pictures of different computers they have at different places...

Also if they are trying to get new members by this competition ( which I doubt is the case since they barely advertised it) the members are probably here for the competition and nothing else. Once it ends they'll be gone.

Hey! I'm a new member, but I've been browsing these forums for help for a year now. Seeing all of your boss rigs has made mine look boring by comparison! Anyways, here is my rig:

Good luck to all of you!

I have plans on buying a new motherboard, then purchasing into Intel.
I can power that baby, I drool to this day staring at it.

I can't manage these cables well though, this case prevents me from doing so unfortunately.
