I'd go for the $5,000, build a amazing rig and get it featured on "Build logs of the week" and make Slick jealous.

I mean they are good and the videos are awesome but to meet them... Would not benefit me nearly as much as 5000 $ . So I would take the money.

I have to agree with slicks idea, I'd have much more fun building a 5k rig. No offense ;)

I wouldnt feel right being all fan boyish , so I would take the cash.

once I finish Uni I am going to try and move over to Vancouver - So if i meet one of the boys at a pub I'd shout them a beer

Its all about those volumetric clouds

I'd take the 5 grand - Build an insane rig and post the build log on the forum getting my self in turn featured on build logs of the week :)

Well I'm very sure you would take the $5000, I mean why would you want to meet yourself and I'm pretty sure your sick of seeing Linus :P

I think that it would be so cool to spend a day with the Linus team, I can see Linus being a total bro.

  1. Get $5000

Hire Slick and pay him more than Linus does

???

Until you run out of money

Fire Slick

I will take the cash honestly.  Wait a few months to see how haswell and the nvidia 700 series shakes out,  build new computer.  Take current computer (i7 3770) out to a friends property in the country and shoot it because....... I could.

I'd take the $5,000 and spend $2,000 to meet L.M.G. for a week. The last $3,000 could get me a TJ07 and a freaking awesome computer. You know what? I'd get 2 awesome computers. :D

Space is pretty awesome.

As much as I'd really like to meet them. I need the money, and know that I would spend it well.

I will probably accept 100k or more to not meet Linus and Slick.

Good Morning...

step 1: accept the $5000

step 2: fly to Vancouver and pay the crew $500 each for meeting them

step 3: walk away with a box full of titans
