The 3,000 post giveaway!

3,000 Post Giveaway

 

card12_s.png

 

Since I recently hit 3,000 posts, I wanted to give something back. This has been a great place of discussion for me, always interesting, and somewhere I'm glad to be a part of. While I can't match what LMG is giving away, I can do at least a little something. So I'll be giving away a $30 USD giftcard to Newegg tonight. All you have to do to enter is write in a post what you'd use it for.

 

A lot of people on here are building new systems, so a little bit of a discount is helpful. Or if you just want something new and exciting, this might help! Or... if you need that little bit of extra to get a vastly superior part? This might be it!

 

The rules are: You won't be chosen if you have less than 75 posts (The point is to give back to those at least somewhat active)

You also have to be able to use Newegg (Location)

Later tonight, I will drop them in an RNG and see who wins.

 

And that's it!

 

This giftcard doesn't expire. I send you the information for it, then you're set!

 

I already talked to colonel_mortis about it, so it's good to go!

 

Post below with what you'll do, and the best of luck to you!

The projects never end in my line of work.

I would like that gift card to buy:

 

hmmmm lets see

 

i think i would probably get a new gaming mouse as my Genius Deathtaker is starting to break and the sensor is kinda glitching out on me

 

if not i would probably get a USB amp/dac for my headphones, as my mobo is kinda basic on the audio department and sometimes it doesnt have enough power for my HD 558s

 

 

i hope i win :D

I'd use it for some LED strips.

@Prastupok Does it have to be used this week? I plan on using it for my next GPU from Newegg. Hopefully with a month depending on my surgery bill. If not I can use it for new ram. BTW thanks.

Enter me! Enter me!

 

I want to get it then forget about it until a week after it expires!

 

Seriously enter me please. :ph34r:

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.

Amazing giveaway. I love both hosting and participating in these. This community is amazing. If I were to win, I'd put it towards a power supply for a build that I plan on selling for very cheap on the forums. (Can't give it away unfortunately but I can sell it for far less than retail)

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

Anyone who can use Newegg is eligible. I didn't expect to cover the entire price, but it takes off something or other!

Hey, this is very generous of you :) thank you!

I would use the gift card to either get some LEDs and a 200 ft Ethernet cable (yes I do need one that long) so I can game in the garage when my fiends are over. (We get very loud so staing in the house is not an option lol)

Good luck everyone!
