We're inviting you to send us a 30 - 60-second video tour of your outdated gaming rig, explaining why you should win a free gaming PC upgrade at the Linus Tech Tips office with Linus! Tell us why your rig isn't cutting it and how ASUS ROG can make your dreams come true. 

 

Winners will be selected based on:

- Hardware specifications

- Games (That you can or cannot run)

- Story

- Creativity

 

Please link your video within this thread and use #ROGRigReboot in your entry post so we can filter through the applications easier. :D 

 

Applications for video entries will close on  August 21st - later that week we'll be picking three winners who will be direct messaged here through the forum! From there we'll coordinate flights and accommodations which we're hoping to do on September 7th here in Surrey, BC, Canada.

 

*This giveaway is limited to residents in North America only, ages 18 or older, or younger accompanied by a guardian*

 

 

Follow ASUS ROG on social media for updates!

Twitter: twitter.com/ASUSUSA

Instagram: instagram.com/rog_na/

You post a public vid for everyone to see, which initially makes most people happen but then over half of those people's happiness die when they hear/see that it is only open to Americans. Thanks a lot. Unsubscribing

Also my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined, Thanks.

Games (That you can or cannot run)

well i can play some of the games i own, i own over 200 plus games on steam things from like ark to call of duty blacks ops 3 and some of them run and some of them well just don't anymore

i get maybe 45 fps in black ops 3 on a really good day

my computer crashes every time i try to run the the Witcher 1, or 2

 

Story

i have been slowly parting into this pc ever sense i left home but living on paycheck to paycheck means i can't afford to buy a good computer so i just upgrade parts whenever i can i really want to be able to play some games but mainly i want to be able to run unreal and unity so i can get into making my own games i love the idea of building something amazing to play and fun to play but with this POS lagging behide by years i can run half the programs i want to heck even blender crashes on this system.

 

i would love to go from this

maxresdefault.png.48ba1278a547885af976526a76514b8e.png

to something more like this

I'll make a video later, but this is just a post.

 

I used to have a meh computer. It had a i5 4460 and a R7 370. My brother took the 370, and fried it by jamming a 4pin CPU connector. Also, the 4460 got wet because reasons (alcohol and thermal paste cleaning)

 

I used to get 15-20 fps in Cities Skylines, and I wanted to play overwatch but couldn't. It takes 15 minutes to boot, and then 10 more minutes to launch Chrome. Sad. It runs Windows 7, something going EOL soon. And now, i'm stuck with this laptop with a Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.66Ghz, 4GB of RAM and always thermal throttles. I can barely run even Minecraft. If I win this, all I want is a Ryzen 3, the STRIX B350, 8GB of 3000mhz ram, the be Quiet Pure Base 600 and maybe a Tier 3 PSU. Also a single RX 580 or 570.

I support Linus and what he does more than I desire to actually play games at the moment. As it stands I'll just save up and buy as much as I can used.

well first of all i don't have a gaming rig. I have a laptop..which has very "high" specifications(see img attached)..and plus i have these 2 games which my friend gifted me in the year in which those titles were released.. 1. splinter cell conviction and 2. splinter cell blacklist...that makes it roughly 4-5 yrs old...and i haven't played those games yet..i mean i have seen their game plays on youtube but never got to play it myself...thanks to my incredible laptop. I just kept hoping that someday i'll build a gaming pc of my own...and i had even started making those part list..as to what component to buy..etc. etc..

As of now i have made atlest 4 -5 gaming pc components list..right from the year in which i had received those games..

Now when i did see this contest ..i thought why not give it a shot...despite the fact that i am not from north america...

 

well now let me see what the folks at LinusTechTips & ASUS have to offer me.

 

P.S. : #ROGRigReboot :)
