Many seem to ask questions such as:
1) "Can it do my homework for me?" - I bet it runs MS office quite well.
2) "Can it play Crysis?" - Did you look @ those stats? Absolutely!
3) "Can it stay nice and cool?" - it's liquid cooled!

I can think of 1000 ways to put this beautiful machine to use, but good luck to all who are entering. This is truly a righteous rig!

Dude, a CyberPower system? SWEET! My bleeding edge system of a few years ago now performs more like a gnarly scab, so please pick me so that I can frag like a demon again!!!!

Ponder This: If a woman gets pregnant by a water balloon, and right before her due date, her water breaks. Should she panic or be happy?

[citation][nom]decode[/nom]Any reason why the above picture case has TWO EVGA cards in SLi and a 1000w power supply unit? This is a misrepresentation I thinkGood enough? Also, Why is a water cooler necessary when that CPU is at stock?[/citation]

I was thinking the same thing!! I'll take anything if I win. It would be great if it had blu-ray drive though.

This would be the first time I have a system with water cooling that would be fun to mess with for sure.

You know I generally don't post any comments on websites since it requires creating an account and such but I visit Tom's so much I can't help but post something! Especially when a contest requires it...

That case makes my legs weak.

A long long time ago there were alot of people, but that was a long long time ago....

I'll probably switch the card out for an ATI hd6000 when those come out.

as for something witty...

A peanut was walking down the street and it was assaulted.

Sorry to burst your bubble (or balloon), but in such a scenario I think there's bigger questions to ask...

Does this rig play Crysis?

Oh yeah I bet it does :)

Can I port Halo Reach into it? If microsoft doesn't mind?

(kidding of course)

Wow you people are harsh... I don't think I've seen so many "thumbs down" given. You must think that by doing that you're increasing your own chances.

What a sexy box! If that girl had wheels I bet you it be flying down the block. With all the guys drooling at her blingy blue light and cool liquid cooling as she flew bye. And if I won her I give her the proper loving she deserves, as we would wast countless hours together gaming!

Anything I say will sound extremely cheesy and contrived if I try to be "witty" or "smart", so I'll just say what I'll use it for if I win.

1. Gaming. It would be really nice to move on from this 9800 GTX+ I've been using the past couple years, even though it served me well. It just can't run all the latest and best looking games out there well enough on high settings. Games like Metro 2033, Mafia II, and soon to be Crysis 2 and Deus Ex Human Revolution.

2. I'm a digital painter, and anyone who has ever tried digital painting at high resolutions in photoshop, or just doing any kind of work on a high resolution image, knows that it can get really sluggish when doing certain tasks, such as using a large brush, smudge tool, or even zooming in and out of the image. Photoshop uses GPU acceleration, and while my 9800 GTX+ does an OK job, it just can't cut it on really high resolutions. So, winning the system would really help with that.


3. As a hobby, my brother and I use a program called Blender. It's a really powerful 3D modeling and animation program. Again though, when working at high polygon/subdivision levels, it can really slow down. Having a better system would help with the working on the 3D objects, and also rendering the final product.


That's what I would use it for. Thanks for the contest and good luck everyone.

lol, as mark heath said, inspiration for the lazy... there are not many articles that span 16 pages of comments and rising. the only ones that i have seen would be things like when the fermi cards were released.

in any case, i generally always post on the articles i read, either that or i don't because i'm not logged in at work. only one thing can happen if you truly desire to learn from others and post honestly... you will learn something. thats why i post, but i digress it really is nice to see so many people actually respond to an article, i personally wish it would happen more often.

ah, and to win would also be quite helpful to me, as i am moving and won't need to worry about buying a new computer.
