Very nice gaming rig! Thanks Tom's Hardware and Cyber Power for this great gift. Always been fan of Tom's hardware since day 1 for the great resources on Electronics and PC Gaming. Let the games begin!
 
Well since I'm too sad to come up with something witty I'll just try for sympathy. My 58yo mother died unexpectedly Friday afternoon. I just finished my first day of college and I'm having trouble sleeping so I checked Toms to take my mind off things. Hope I didn't bring anyone down. Congratulations to the winner of this hot looking rig. Oh and please call your mothers.
 
This case looks pretty freaking amazing. Only thing I see it missing is an SSD.

I would be too busy taking in the sheer awesomeness of this rig to even use it. xD
 
The case side looks sort of like an Autobot logo or perhaps a faceplate from an old knight's helmet, definitely an interesting look. The GTX 460 and 6GB RAM combo is going to make for some spectacular gaming...but no secondary card for dedicated PhysX support? Can't you slide another GTX 460 in there? 😉 I've got someone Stateside that will accept delivery as I'm in Europe. Hurray!
 


Seconded. Most intersting contest yet. Enjoying your comments too.
 
It's amazing how Tom's Hardware can offer an awesome rig, for free, and people find a way to troll it. I guess a forum isn't really a forum until an individual flames another.

I, for one, would love this PC as I would my first born child. As an Audio Engineer and an avid gamer, I know that you just can't have too many PCs.

So, please, 5069636b204d6521
 
I need a system like this! My gaming system was fried in a lightening storm 2 weeks ago and I dont have the spare change to replace the one I had!
 


OK, props, that was pretty clever. Smart and witty.
 
Looks like a very sturdy setup. It is Toms/CP doing the contest so everything is always Awesome.

processthis casts lighting! It's super effective!

Oh wait, wrong game.
 
What a 'fan'tastic case. There are enough blue led's in the fans/case to light up the room without having to resort to external lighting. I love the industrial look and all the vent ports - sort of looks like an alien transformer just waiting to play your game for you. Where do you put the hot pockets and Mt. Dew? This computer would update mine like going from a lawn mower hover craft to the Millennium Falcon - I'd love to fly this thing. To quote Mazda - Zoom Zoom.

No place for Mountain Dew or Hot Pockets, but I bet it comes with a cloaking device to hide itself from all the people who might want to steal it from the winner. =)
 
[citation][nom]xnashx[/nom]Why dismember something so beautiful powerful? I think it's great how it is? The whole point of getting a configured computer from Cyberpower is so that you don't have to worry about compatibility. I myself have been building machines since 1994 but you get tired of the trips back and forth to the store and returning/exchanging components. I can tell you, that one time when i was building one PC...i change my graphics card 5 times. It started from a $50 video card and ended up with a $400 video card. Leave the machine as is.[/citation]
That's why it's really helpful to ask people to look over your build in the forums. Though system building still takes work even if you have all the parts chosen for you. I'd keep it how it already is, too (though it'd be cool to SLI that 460 if it has a capable motherboard). But to each his own I suppose. If someone wanted to remove all the parts and put it in a custom case that looked like a pyramid, I wouldn't stop them. I don't have a gaming rig to swap parts with so I'd HAVE to keep it together, haha.
