Hi. This is my first build, and I built it for gaming. I love the cooling options with the Corsair case and my Maximus Formula VI Motherboard. I am using a GTX 780 now but would love to have the R9 290.

Thanks, Great contest, lots of awesome rigs!

Not often you see a giveaway for something you're already looking to buy (but waiting for a price decrease in my case). My GTX 570 has served me well but for 1440p it's showing its age, R9 290 is the the Goldilocks card for 1440p and the Sapphire Tri-X is the best version of the 290 (according to the Tom'sHardware review). Their warranty could be better but as long as you're not buying it used it's okay, cooler is second to none. Would also give me an excuse to do some dusting and cable management...

Here is a photo of my rig. Video card is probably the worst thing in it right now (XFX7850) but the other components are nice and the water cooling loop has been kept minimal.

Here is to hoping!

And here is one more picture of it being assembled to guard against any claims that this computer isn't mine.
