The fact that Puget had that BS copyright claim is frustrating.  My buddy had been saving for an oil cooled system for about 3 months and was almost ready to purchase when this happened.  Now he has purchased a fishtank.  Look the point of that is to say that the Puget  cases are awesome!

 

Note: if i won I could afford the oil but it would be a month or 2 before I could buy the rest of the parts (I would make a beast)

Hopefully the patent trolls can be run off, but they can be notoriously difficult to shake without enough money to throw at them :(

 

Also ITX preferred. Maybe these giveaways won't be the last of these systems if things work out though...

Hope everything works out for them.. patent trolls suck!

These kits are amazing, i would love to make my own mineral oil PC!... it seems like this will be the last chance to ever get one of these kits... which sucks :( so i hope i win!

 

I don't mind which variant but preferably M-ATX since its a bit more upgrade-able .

Totally in, I'd love to build an HTPC (ITX preferably, since I have a bunch of components given by companies to test and review as it is) and review the kit myself!

 

If Puget is reading this, given they listed you directly as prior art it can be challenged to get a stay on the sales ban. I am sure you have obtained legal advice on this already but I urge you to not give up.

It's a shame, I was literally saving up for months to buy a kit, then gradually work towards getting compenents for the pc itself. Now that this has happened this would probably be my one and only chance to get one of these bad boys. Puget my support is with you guys, it was an amazing product and I hope you guys reck these trolls.

This is terrible news  :( What a dbag move by LiquidCool Solutions.

 

I don't want to enter in this giveaway, as I know there are many more people who want this much more than me. Plus it would be a lot of work for just me to do. All I wanted to say is that I'm sad to see Puget's kits go away. Good luck everyone

I would love to win either of these kit's, I have built before but after seeing your guys video it really got me thinking that I need to build an oil-cooling computer but since puget stopped selling the kit I couldn't pick one up. It's really unfair that a great company with a great idea gets trolled by people that are just trolling to get to try to get money from a company that didn't do anything wrong. Best of luck Puget and hopefully I could build in one of your last great kits!

I'd love a Mini ITX Build, that's for sure! I'm kind of excited for this, and it's actually a pretty cool idea!

Something has to change about patent trolling. many major companies have done it and now smaller businesses are doing it. If I win I will be purchasing the oil after the drawing.

I've always wanted to put together a mineral oil rig to use, but I'd never quite found a case I really liked for it until I saw these. It would be absolutely great to be able to put together, preference would be the mATX variant. A huge thanks to Puget for this amazing way of responding to the unfortunate patent filed against them, and making the best of what seems to be an immature move.

I would love to build one of these, and would be honored to have one of the last cases, I would be able to buy oil, but it would be quite a while before I would be able to purchase other components, as I would do a lot of research into the design and coloring I would want, so it would be months / possibly over a year before I'm finished.  But you have my word it would be completed and NOT something that would be sold on eBay.  I'm finishing up another build now, getting dual SLI and custom liquid cooling next year, so, two projects at once, but, I would be VERY interested, and would sign a "non-resell" disclosure if I needed to.

I would prefer the larger of the two cases if possible.  I could do a "zen garden" type theme in the build, and hook it up to my television in my living room as a Steam Machine.

An oil rig has been a dream ever since I saw my first one back in the early 2000's. I'd love to build a rig in one, and planning to upgrade to a beast build here pretty soon.

I would enter if I had the money to pull off a mineral oil project but I want to share my thoughts about them getting patent trolled.

It's extremely unfortunate that a company that is moving forward and selling products simply just because they market enthusiasts is sad. Puget is such a good company and it is sad that they have to stop selling such a wonderful product because of a stupid clmpmay that's not even in business anymore :(.

These cases were really cool. It's a shame Pudget can't make them anymore. I kinda wanted to do a mineral oil pc earlier, but I couldn't afford everything. If I win a case, then I definitely will be able to afford one, and I will post a build log on this forum. I would like the ITX case if I win, as I would only put one GPU in it, because it would be to much system downtime between an upgrade, and I might not be able to get a second GPU, with the cost of the rest of the system.

Look at my shiny. The logo lights up

MATX, I always wanted a oil cooled PC. I do got a address in the USA, where it can be shipped to. I wonder if I could get the oil from Amazon.
