I wonder if people from coldest and darkest places of our planet can participate in this too? Or just from the shiny and rainbow side (US&Canada only)?

Shouldn't you actually worry about announcing the winners to the "create a starship" contest (now over two months late with no news) before starting another contest? Or is this going to turn out the same way, lots of free advertising on facebook, but that pesky "give away the expensive prize" thing will just be forgotten?

Nice!! I just built a gaming SLI Rig using the 560 Ti cards. It is so sweet. I cant even get it to lag out in Jita. Now all I need is a 32" monitor or larger and I would be in Eve Heaven  This giveaway would sure look nice on my desk as well though.

Paranoid becomes reality when you get a notification through from a finanical institution that to complete your application for this offered service, would I like to subscribe to its on-line facilities. However I never approached this company for its services but they had ALL my relevant information to open an account..!!
I get paranoid about the information given and found on the web, so I do the minimum I need so if that gets tried again, they will have to fight very hard.

No, they were right, I had forgotten to include those small but very important details. So this was all my fault.

It was there when I came to this thread and it hadn't even broken the first page yet. I'm sure people just can't be arsed to read, they see "giveaway" and immediately shout "OH IT'S FOR THE AMERI****S ONLY"
That having been said, I hope I win.

When I read it the first time I thought that information regarding the locations included in the competition were absent, then when I came back and saw the 'don't whine you dumbasses generic post' and I re-read the OP and saw it had the information added and assumed I'd skimmed and missed it. Yay for being vindicated :-) anyway, I've entered, here's hoping I win epic PC. Good luck everyone!

This assumes that CCP actually plans to give away the prize. If, like the "create a starship" contest, they just plan to take the free facebook advertising and skip the prize, the length of the list is not a problem.
TBH, scam contests are very appropriate for EVE, but let's be honest here: you'll have better luck with those "double your ISK" offers in Jita local than hitting that "like" button.

Does it come with refrigerator? OR at least a liquid cooling on VGA? We all know what Nvidia is in terms of heating up components. It's not the CPU that needs liquid cooling but VGA. Other than that, would be great if there was a selection on Chassis looks.

Why even list this, it is onboard isn't it.
I saw Facebook "likes" or something, I will pass.
I'd rather you not do the superfluous laser engraving and use the saved money to get a proper sound card, or a set of Logitech Z5500.
I mean, cmon, when does laser engraving make your computer better?
Whoever wins congrats!

If you're going to require a Facebook account, then please also state that the compotition is also sponsored by Facebook. I'm not 13, nor wish to take part in the rediculous and infantile need to inform the world every time I go to the toilet, so won't be signing up to Facebook to take part in this competition.
Unless Facebook have some kind of blackmail-able hold over you, please make any future competitions use EVE Gate. Use Facebook for advertising by all means, but all you're doing here is promoting Facebook, not EVE.

Anyways; Nice system, not going to like Facef**k. You really can't think up something original instead of using that horror of a social network crap to "promote" your business? You really think that using *beeeeeeeeeeep* will bring you more customers or something? I just got a call; get a clue wants you to return to earth. Also, for a prize of 3000$ you can expect to pay about 300-500 euro's in import taxes etc. (in the Netherlands anyways). Also, this compo means that anyone who DOESN'T play EvE can also win it....doesn't it?

Also after reading the ToS of facebook that someone linked previously, it's apparent there are a lot of people who think they know about legal conditions, but in reality don't know jack-****.
That or they have only injected the skill 'Reading Comprehension' but haven't trained it to lvl 1 yet ^^
Hope I win!

This ^^^
Could use some clarification on this since it's been asked three or four times already.
As for the 'sociophobes' who are scared of Facebook, unless you've got something to hide, what is the point in worrying about your basic info being on the web? If you've ever ordered anything online, joined anything online, or filled out any kind of form that requested that info (regardless if the site stated that they never give that info out to third parties), your info is already out there. The way the web is nowadays, if you're on it, so is your info. Time to wake up and stop being so paranoid. Geesh.

If i win i will sell the case and build the system in something more dignified. I will also sell the case defiled with artwork and buy PLEX for the money yielded, which in turn i will sell for ISK.
Edit: Read page three with CCP's facedesk (when facepalm is not enough) and the posts about some xbox fanboi in Brazil winning this - Yeah i agree the rage must be great if this happens!

Notice that I said 'legal way'. Of course I don't want anything like that to happen to CCP, but many other major companies have run similar contests and sweepstakes on Facebook. If there was a chance of legal repercussions, those companies wouldn't do so. Therefore, there must be some legal way, through Facebook, to do this.

Its not that hard. Sure you'll be on the internets for a little bit. but don't you think it will be worth it if you win the pc? o.O? I know when its over, I'll unlike the PC company because I have no idea who they really are, or the quality of the products.

No, they were right, I had forgotten to include those small but very important details. So this was all my fault.
There are a lot of country's that the U.S. does not allow the export of technology to, then again, people living in those country's may not have a facebook account anyways.

If only it worked that way. Make an account, google indexes the page, you "delete" account = google still has your page and so does facebook since you don't really think they'd delete all that precious data they could sell to anyone who wants it?

I'm not scared of it, nor stressed about my personal data. I just refuse to use Facebook because it's rubbish. And there are enough rubbish things in my life without having to go out of my way to take part in more.

That's ok - instead of wasting my time on the massive cluster of fail that is Facebook, I've got a job, been payed some money, and bought a better computer, with the laser etched art work of my choice on the side.
I want to take part in the competition, but with Facebook involved it's simply to high a price to pay to not win it (as that is what will happen).

even on TV you have the FB sites of whatever hairgel/laxative/consumable they are selling.
deal with it, people. Times are-a-changing, even if you don't like FB. why don't you make a troll account/character account?

Depending on what country you live in you may have to pay import tax and any additional fees or taxes that applies in your country.
Fail #3: that's just weak for those outside the US, kick in an additional $500 cash that can cover these things.
That laser etching totally rocks, though. Is this a one-of-a-kind or can we send side panels to MAINGEAR for them to replicate this (or similar to it)?

I can definitely understand that some people don't want to leave that kind of footprint on the internet, and that is their right of course. But you have to have a Facebook account to be part of this giveaway.
Make a facebook account. Like the pages, when the event is over, Unlike the pages and delete account.
Its not that hard. Sure you'll be on the internets for a little bit.
If only it worked that way. Make an account, google indexes the page, you "delete" account = google still has your page and so does facebook since you don't really think they'd delete all that precious data they could sell to anyone who wants it?
You can set Facebook to remove your name off of search engines. If it is a new account, you would not be on it. It takes a day for any account/website to me indexed on Google. Sure you name will be listed if you comment on a page or liked. but your information wont be displayed if a person clicks on the link and dives into your profile.

Fail #1: the book of fail
Originally by: CCP Wrangler
- Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Fail #2: if you're going to run Windows on this rig, it deserves Ultimate 64-bit.
Originally by: CCP Wrangler
Depending on what country you live in you may have to pay import tax and any additional fees or taxes that applies in your country.
Fail #3: that's just weak for those outside the US, kick in an additional $500 cash that can cover these things.
That laser etching totally rocks, though. Is this a one-of-a-kind or can we send side panels to MAINGEAR for them to replicate this (or similar to it)?
Pal I'm running Ultimate 64 on this rig and Home Premium 64-bit on the others. As far as I can tell the only difference is the languages. Maybe someone that's software literate could list some of the other differences for me.

Without a Facebook account you can't enter.
So you are instructing us to get a Facebook account in order to enter?
Originally by: facebook contest guidelines
You cannot: Instruct people (in the rules or elsewhere) to sign up for a Facebook account before they enter the promotion.
I'm sad. It used to be you could send a postcard with info to enter contests.

a 660 watts powersupply for a 2600k and 560 ti Sli setup .. thats brave :D Might Run fine but that powersupply is gonna work its butt off and therefor gett Hot and Noisy .. gettin a Psu that is slightly bigger than what you need makes it so that the psu can take it nice and easy
In case you've not had this pointed out already, the PSU should be more than sufficient for this system for the following reasons:
Full load wattage on the 560 is 140watts> per card
Full load wattage on the processor is ~70watts>
Full load of the rest of the components should amount to no more than approximately 60watts, if that much
140+140+70+60=410
That's using the maximum realistic figures that'll ever be achieved while using the system. You can throw another 20% on there if you're particularly pessimistic in order to reach the total maximum, which is still at ~500watts total.
Anyway, this system would be awesome, as it's practically a doubling up of the performance of my existing computer in virtually all aspects. While I could use the money, instead, I'd not say no to a case like that.
Besides all of this, you just might be reading my signature. |

Exactly my thoughts. Is this contest going up again soon, or is it just cancelled? I'd very much like that PC, as it would be an awesome birthday present.

Manifest and Wrangler,
The winner has already been selected. The entry to the contest ended on May 8th. Sign up was at eVGA.com. I saw none of these relevant details updated here.
I had to go to Failheap for this information, which I got three days too late to enter the drawing.
You've got some explaining to do.
Quote:
Anyone in the world with a Facebook account who "likes" these pages are eligible to win the PC. The PC will be shipped from the US and depending on what country you live in you may have to pay import tax and any additional fees or taxes that applies in your country.
By the way, I've removed the nVidia and EO pages from my LIKES!

Seriously, i think that some people who post are just f*cking ret*rded. In THIS THREAD, right HERE it says this was a mix up. Then later an actual email was sent out about the real contest that didn't violate any rules of any site. That was advertised here as well.

Some of you people are seriously stupid or just plain ******ed.
READ IT!!!
It says anyone in the world and if you win, they will ship anywhere but you might have to pay import taxes or other fees.
Ignorant people really should be put in a colony on some deserted island and allowed to just cannibalize each other until nothing is left.
