Sign Up. Comment Well. Win Core i7 Gaming Rig!

[heroictofu]

I've added a few comments since I created an account. I seem to recall specifically talking about my bad experiences with an ASUS Crosshair IV. But alas.

(insert smart and witty comment here FTW)

^ smart and witty + the best commenter...

...Did I win?

Oh come on Tom's, you just showed me how to Control+C and Control+V a couple months ago! I just did it! That has to count for something...

I'm sorry, I refuse to be lured into a contest of wit and comedy, by a really sweet rig (drool....drool). O.K., you win, damn it!! I really could stand an upgrade from this Pentium 4 box I built in 2002. 😉

Nice system. It'd be the first time in about a hundred years a Hurricane landed in VT if I win it.

I'm also betting it'd be an ideal foot-warmer replacement for my 5 year old system. Winter is coming soon.

Well you brought at least one lurker out. Been a member for years, I just don't talk a great deal.

Are we Canadians eligible or are you going to reject us on account of our bags of milk again?

 

[mgoblue3296]

Now I can finally play Counter Strike Source, given my old 2004 HP couldn't.

Screw Crysis.

 

[mimart7]

I wonder what the frame rates are for minesweeper, with this beast.

REJECTED. Unless of course you know a sweet and cudely american, in which case they can receive it and ship it out to you. Thankfully I've got some family who wandered south of the border, guess they'll be useful for something other then having to drive really far to see them and cheap shopping now!

We are not eligible as Canadians because the computer only works in Imperial units, it doesn't understand our Metric system.

Seeing only 40% of the traffic comes from the U.S. I dont understand why people arent given the choice of paying for their own shipping when they live abroad. I mean, it is understandable that Toms is not willing to pay for the shipping when it can become very costly, but giving this option may be great and I am pretty sure more than one of us will be more than happy and willing to do so.

@ People complaining about no SSD: SSDs have yet failed to get to a point where they are worth buying. That is pricing. They are still VERY expensive related to the performance improve they provide, its not mandatory on a gaming rig, its for people with deep pockets.

I would finally be able to feed my brother EverCrack addiction by joining him -- I am a PPC Mac guy.

Nice system. If I won it I would upgrade with 2 more Nividia GTX 460's in SLI. The GA-X58A-UD3R can handle 4 GPU's but the 800watt PSU may cant handle a fourth. I would need to know the specs of the PSU. This system could be a killer crysis 2 gaming rig. Crossing fingers for the win.

 

[alexapi32]

Can I haz all ur stuff plz?

 

[icepick314]

for those who live outside US, I'll be willing to ship it to you...

p.s. PLEASE don't include insurance OR tracking...because I don't know what would happen AFTER I ship....

 

[picsoul]

Will this help render "enlarge your penis" E-mails more quickly? If so i just got an E-chub.

 

[saifallofjmr]

I AM going to be the one to get the system ;D

 

[gtvr]

I'm usually smart and witty, but the pressure of this contest is too much to bear. 🙁

 

[TheRockMonsi]

So when they say "sign up" they just mean sign up for a Tom's Hardware Account, right?

 

[corner66]

How decadent would it be to use this rig exclusively as a pong machine?

 

[g00fysmiley]

Finally a change for my broke self to replace my socket 74 amd computer... oh wait smart and whitty comments... I'm boned if i were smart and whitty I'd be making enough to actually buy a better computer >_<
