So, the reason i want to win this giveaway, is because I WANT TO MEET LINUS

Working in Linus Media Group is my dream job, i have watched Linus for a long time and well, i love it, i mean is not like i watch EVERY video on the history of Linus, but i really like it, i think the first one i saw was the sub zero build guide, i even want to study something to get to work there some day.

Now that i think it i never registered to the Linus Tech Tips page, only watched on youtube (Facepalm)

 

My PC is an AMD A6 mounted on a Mini ATX gigabyte motherboard, it has 8GB of DDR3 memory and it has a Radeon R7 250 with 1GB of video, the other stuff is no big thing, and my periphals are a CM devastator II kit with the Sennick headphones (Only cause they glow LOL), and the Screen is a LG 24 Inch LG 24M38

 

I run some games properly, about 30 - 40 FPS, League of Legends Caste Crashers, Super Motherload

I remember the one time i bought The Crew when it was on sale and Rest In Pepperonis, it basically was dead

My favorite game, Saints Row IV runs at 10 - 20 Fps, so i had to play it on a console D:

I wonder if it can run Crysis

 

Well, if my video is no creative at all, that would be so sad ;-;

 

Hello Linus :D

I'm not trying to sound rude about it, I just find it ironic. Most of these people created their account solely to enter.

I too made an account to enter, it doesn't make us less of an LMG fan or less deserving. I've been watching the channel for years.

#ROGRigReboot

 

This is my entry for the Rig Reboot Contest. Thanks in advance for you consideration!

I hope it's pretty clear why I need a new rig. This is where I learned Photoshop, but it can barely do that.

This is my #ROGRigReboot entry.

 

I'm entering because my PC is due for an upgrade and I think I could get the most out of a new computer. I plan on streaming while playing the most demanding games at high settings, editing 4k footage and running graphic/processor intensive application such as 3D modeling software. I plan on getting every last bit of power out of a ROG rig if I'm selected. I know a lot of people have good reasons for needing a new rig but I hope that the fact of how important this computer and experience would be for me is a good enough reason to be one of the three selected. Plus some other reasons like I turn 20 in 4 days! Plus my computer is dying PLS HALP!!!

 

Full components list

Processor: I5-2500 Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost)

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z68-V LE

RAM: G.SKILL 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1886MHz

Daul Monitors: 24 1080p LCD ASUS monitor

Graphics Card: R9 380 ASUS Strix 4g*

PSU: Rosewill - BRONZE Series - 1000-Watt

2x 500gb SSD 1x 256 SSD 1x 1TB 5600rpm hard drive

Samsung Bluray player (doesn't work right now because lack of sata port)

 

*Second card in the video is Sapphire R9 285 I bought on eBay for $80 for Crossfire but doesn't work because my board only has a 4x PCIe as the second slot even though it says CrossFireX support on the motherboard >:(. Now my older brothers using it. He's Autistic and can't really afford a new computer either so I'll give him my current computer if I win. I'm not saying that for the sob story angle or anything that's just what I plan to do.

Hello everyone. This is my entry for #ROGRigReboot

 

It was a struggle to condense everything in 1-minute but hey, it's a creative challenge not a hurdle. I thought the skit would only take up 30s and that I would have 30s to talk over but I was wrong. :P

 

Key System Specs:

Laptop Model: HP Pavilion dv7-1243cl

CPU: Intel Core2 Duo T6400 @ 2.00 GHz

RAM: 4GB DDR2

GPU: Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT

 

I only tested 2 games, Heroes of the Storm and DotA 2, cuz those are the only ones I have right now. Both Full Screen @ 1080p on lowest settings, I can run both games around 40-50fps but as soon as there are actions on the screen, it drops down to around 6-15fps on HotS and around 20-25fps on DotA 2. I wasn't able to test the likes of CS:GO and Rocketleague because I don't own those games.

 

With regards to games that I cannot play, basically anything released in the past 4-5 years. Some games I might be able to run, like Tomb Raider (2013) but I'm sure that would run like shit.

 

Aside from gaming, I also do web design in photoshop and photography-related stuff, and my rig is definitely showing it's age when I'm doing web design work. Basically I cannot run Photoshop and a browser with more than 2 tabs at the same time unless I want a horrible experience (which I still do cuz I need to :p).

 

If I win, the rig upgrade would be a lot of help especially in terms of level of productivity. Also, that broken laptop screen though.

 

As a bonus cuz I was bored, this is my laptop crying while I was editing the video.

#ROGRigReboot

My Entry.

 

My first video take for my entry into the giveaway.

There are a lot of really good entries here. Chances are slim for me to be one of the lucky 3, but considering I have school coming up again for September and will be doing more resource intensive courses, I could really use a new machine. And well I also have a steam library itching for playing haha. 

 

Thanks to everyone! 
In the description, there's a link to one of my other video takes. I tried to all of this in one shot since I wont even bother to try editing on my current machines.

#ROGRigReboot

It's pretty bad, lmao, but it's all I could find the time to make since I was dealing with stuff for college.

Good luck to everyone who is entering.

It did require me to delve a little bit into parts of Premiere Pro I haven't messed with before, so that's also a big win for me for familiarizing myself even more with the software, even if I don't win the contest.

 


took longer to make and encode than i'd like to admit

 


My PC actually crashed when trying to run CloudGate.

Here's my entry video  for #ROGRigReboot

 

The video quality is bad because I really couldn't add any effects to it.

 

No color correction and I had to record with my phone.
