Digital Storm's all the way very sleek, fast, and tons of great features water cooling beastly graphics for gaming, graphic design and AutoCAD anyone can use this would be a great pc to show off to friends I love the color scheme that's what draws me to it then looking in side would take care of all my needs for a life time :)
 
Kind of ridiculous to blame the exclusionism to the U.S. on legal grounds. Other sites work around it. Why can't Tom's?
Hate to think that I need to look elsewhere for computer news and tech because Tom's can't get their head out of their U.S. and think globally when they consider their following. Works better for everyone if this happens.
 
No, seriously, these rigs are out of range of allllll our budgets. But god-damned if they aren't b-e-a-utiful. That's some incredible power.
 
I am not a resident of the States, but I have family in the states that could hold it for me. would that be possible? *sheepish grin* pweaaase? *puppy dog face* (btw I am a citizen of the USA)
 
Steiger Dynamics, hands down. A super-clean, potent PC is such a tiny package. Love it.

*crosses fingers and toes*
 
The Maingear system looks like a great battlefield 4 battlebox if you have eyefinity displays. I'd normally go with a Nvidia graphics card but AMD's Mantle is supposed to be really good for Battlefield 4. For the price you get around 5TB of storage, graphics that will last forever and a CPU that can chew through anything. Another cool feature is the open loop system allows you to add more components to your loop if you want a 4th 290x or you get a new motherboard.
 
I entered usng the link provided and the following displayed upon completion (although it seemed to be successful):

"The Sweepstakes opens on September 22, 2013 9:00 PM PDT and closes on October 7, 2013 9:00 PM PDT."
 
Here's my take on each system:

1. Ava Direct - nice low budget build, but you could get a better GPU and less CPU for the same price.
2. Cybertron - Nice Prodigy build, not too excessive.
3. Digital Storm - Beautiful system with an awesome looking custom liquid setup for the privileged few.
4. Falcon Northwest - I'm putting the Tiki on my "list of things to buy if I win the lottery". :lol:
5. HRS - Nice server, not really a gaming rig.
6. Maingear - Love the paint job, but seems a bit steep when you could build a rig for 1/2 the cost with identical hardware.
7. Micro Express - Nice system but you could build it yourself and save $700.
8. NCIX - Love the Prodigy M, and great to see it used in this configuration. Plus it's also the most affordable rig of the bunch.
9.Origin PC - Nice paint job and lighting scheme. But just like the Storm, it's only for the privileged few.
10. Puget Systems - Not for the cost. You could seriously build the exact same system with better hardware for about 1/2 the cost.
11. Safe Harbor - Nice workstation.
12. Steiger Dynamics - Beautiful black and white interior, nice clean looking build. But way too expensive.
13. Velocity Micro - Another one you could build yourself with the exact same hardware for $1500 less.
14. Xidax - "That's just insane" is a good way to describe this rig.
15. Xotic PC - Nice paint scheme but you could build your own for around the $3K mark with identical hardware.
