When there is a contest for a PC here at HotHardware, it's usually comprised of parts that an enthusiast would buy for himself.

It will have many high end parts that perform great too. They really know what works, and they include it in their prize rigs.

Also, whenever Marco is the one building it, the cable management and attention to detail is top notch.

One can't help but admire these builds,........

I'm actually itching to build this one. I was toying with the idea of building an "All Corsair" system for myself. Since that's not happening anytime soon, I'm going to have to live vicariously through the winner. :)

If that winner is me, I promise monthly postcards from the build, detailing its experiences living with a serial bencher and overclocker, as well as graphic detail of how much pain will be inflicted when a full size window is cut.

I would absolutely love to win this computer. I definitely need a system like this for both school and for the games I'm *attempting* to play on an old HP system. Please HotHardware, choose me!!!

You guys get to have all the fun building these things every time we have a contest. I just build my friend a computer a few months ago and now I'm itching for another. It's just so much fun!

Hey Marco, ever thought about posting a vid of you building the rig? Could be a good tutorial for newbs like me, or since there are already lots of tutorials on youtube just a nice behind-the-scenes for the winner. Of course that'd mean you'd have to start wearing pants when building it (or am I just thinking of my own PC building habits...)
