You're supposed to tell Rod that he's your god of computer wisdom.

[DemonicDerek]

You're supposed to tell Rod that he's your god of computer wisdom.

Ah so that's why there was no drawing last time, so that we can have two prizese this time! :KICK ASS Well the case is awesome, and the powersupply I have yet to know. I just want the case as it is. Depending on the wattage of the powersupply I will decide if it is good or not, but considering it is free (that's if you win it) then it is awesome. Everything that is free is well worth its price...:Wink

[DemonicDerek]

Sorry I didn't mean to quote JustinEss. Also Sorry for double posting, even though this is kind of a pointless post, but meh it doesn't matter. It's not like I m spamming or anything:shifty

I loved to give it a try.
Thanks for the chance.

[=CDU=Above]

Just watched the video review. Awesome job. Saves so much reading and tells all in short time. I don't think anyone else does it.

Not suckin' up. Just needed to be said.

[borschtBomber[SS]]

Ok, count me in. I already have a Cosmos, but entering to give to my buddy if I win. :)

[AJ]

I'm totally in! :thumb

That's pimp. Nothing short of the best from Rodney!!!!!!

[Raistlin]

Yeah man, you can definitely count me in for this one :thumb

[superdoughboy4]

I'm in for sure.

[cvasquez]

Amazing case.
I am definitily IN.
I am looking around to purchase a new case for a new RIG that I will be building for the INTEL QUAD CORE. This case would be perfecto!

[aviris]

I just got to get the quailty posts, and I am in... of course, this counts as one. :^)

[Linseman]

I am definitely in! Nice looking case and PSU! :thumb

Good luck everyone!:food

[-+FudgE+-]

I AM SO IN!!!!! cosmos too >:D

[Race234]

lol its funny to see all the people come out of the wood works and all the people who fail to read the simplest of rules.... oh well lol

Anyhow this is certainly an awesome prize, I would use this case for the KOS-MOS project (3gm Exclusive Build) I have but with it being a file/media server and I already have the left over PC Parts to do it so the main focus would be the mod but as for that power supply it would be swapped out for a 500watt psu but I could team that 1kw psu with my HBD build, insanity I know but sure would be interesting.

Well the best of luck to everyone. ^_^

[Davis]

Great Contest!! Count me in! :thumb

[SirKiwi]

Count me in for sure. The case, or the power supply, both are amazing prizes. :Thumb

[ironleg]

Im in! who could pass up something like this!

[Enigmachine]

At first I said to myself 'aww, I don't need another case or power supply...'.

But then I looked at the stuff and I thought 'Are you mad???'.

Put my name in the hat! :)

[Maarek]

Wooo - Nice Give-away!!

[robodude666]

"Real Power Pro 1000w" - AHAHAHAHAHAHA Thats the same exact PSU empty has. HA!

[dethred]

I'm in! Just joined the site last month and there are giveaways?? Sweet. Not that I'll win or anything.:bangcomp

[DemonicDerek]

The drawing was good with just the case, then rodney updated the post and now I see the powersupply for its glory. They are both so good! and if I won one of them they would both work in the rig I want to build! :):noway:jawsdown:jawsdown:jawsdown

[DemonicDerek]

Odds might be better if you remove those who are not eligible. ;)

[Titus]

I'm in for sure! Lovin' the psu.

[assman]

im in....could use a new psu and case

[nilzxx]

Alright, I wasn't in for the past giveaways, but this time I could really use a nice case and a sweeet PSU so I can upgrade my current system and use the spare parts created for my future arcade system. I'm in! :Thumb

or

1/(however many people enter)/2

***Ben

[cvasquez]

My plans for this rig if I win it would be to use an intel quad core. I have too many old AMD systems.

It's time to ROCK ON!

Good luck everyone!

I have a question though, there will be two winners.
There are two items being given away the case and the power supply or is it two cases and two power supplies?

Let me know thanks.

Carlo

[superdoughboy4]

More than likely 1 winner for the PSU, 1 winner for the Cosmos case.

[Jaggardy]

aww im not eligible due to my location well gl to the rest of you ironic cause thats the only thing i need to get after i install my 8800gts -.-

[cvasquez]

superdoughboy4, again this is just a thought.

Either way each one of those items are a killer!
Man...I prefer the case...but again they are both awzome!

:nuts

If I win, I would be a happy camper either way.

[cvasquez]

I thought it's time to change my avatar. Couldn't be better...then Gears Of War! One of the BEST EVER GAMES CREATED for the Xbox360.

:nuts

Lol For sure. I don't really need a 1kW PSU, but it'd be nice to have a brand new one.
I love having extra brand new hardware. Lol
That's why if I was to get a case, an expensive one that is, I'd get one with an included PSU.
Extra hardware; I'm a packrat. Lol

[trueg50]

Well, who couldn't resist a Cosmos? I am in!

[a111087]

seems like it's going to be almost 1 out of 100 :)

[TONYTHETIGER916]

I'm in. I need a case upgrade.

[Race234]

so Rodney is this just the standard Cosmos case or could it be maybe the new ESA Cosmos Case?

[Salavat23]

Looks really nice :)

Why would anyone not want be in?

Count me in Rodney:)

[Salavat23]

so Rodney is this just the standard Cosmos case or could it be maybe the new ESA Cosmos Case?

I think that it is the one that he reviewed.

So i judge that it is the standard one.

Why would you need ESA already?

It will only come to life once the Nvidia 780i chipset arrives.

But without a doubt, this is a sweat case.

[CS:S Šćõŭţ]

Hey IM IN:jawsdown:jawsdown:) good luck every1

[UsualSuspect]

I was just trying to decide between this case and the Ultra m998. Maybe you'll call me.

[Race234]

Well it is the case he reviewed but not the one he reviewed, the one thats up for grabs here will be shipped from CM.

Oh and ESA will work on all mobo not just nVidia as its an open source standard that they are trying to pass.

[Salavat23]

Well it is the case he reviewed but not the one he reviewed, the one thats up for grabs here will be shipped from CM.

Oh and ESA will work on all mobo not just nVidia as its an open source standard that they are trying to pass.

But you will need special hardware for it, won't you?

[Salavat23]

Well it is the case he reviewed but not the one he reviewed, the one thats up for grabs here will be shipped from CM.

Oh and ESA will work on all mobo not just nVidia as its an open source standard that they are trying to pass.

I am starting to see ESA "qualified" power supplies, fans etc.

This is looking like marketing hype.

[Race234]

ESA is just the ability to control your hardware though USB with software so its kinda of a neat idea sure there are versions of this that are already out but this would make it a standard so I hope it does go through

[Maniacmous]

I'm in. I should win something because my birthday starts in an hour and a half from this post! Now that I say that I won't, because if I did, everyone would scream rigged contest, but I could really use a new case, and that Cosmos is a def. a beauty - the Kate Beckensale of computer cases.

[tomato]

Please count me in as well ;) Good luck to everyone!

[Salavat23]

ESA is just the ability to control your hardware though USB with software so its kinda of a neat idea sure there are versions of this that are already out but this would make it a standard so I hope it does go through

Well, ESA missing doesn't really bother me.

I don't care because the Cosmos is really just a very nice all-around product.

[Race234]

true it does have some flaws though but that is something I look forward to rectifying if I win this contest ^_^ but yes overall the cosmos case is a really nice case indeed....

[Deus_Ex_Machina]

Have yet to win anything free, but hopeful! Sign me up. :)

[UsualSuspect]

I've decided to go with the Ultra m998 case....It seems like a better case. But the Cooler Master looks better.

[DragonMaster]

I'm in! :Wink

[CreepyMan]

I am so in! :)

[Fuzzfool]

I need something to get my project off the ground so
I'M IN!!

[nilzxx]

Wow, in that 3/4 year I'm on 3gm now the number of participants have doubled. This is slowly becoming one of those huge forums....

Btw, winners will be picked on the 30th. So if you havn't entered yet you should hurry up. THis is an amazing giveaway. Kickass case and 1kw psu is just intense. Good Luck guys!

[CompuParadise]

Count me in too :) Thanks

[mimart7]

Like Mr. T says "I pity the fool... who is not in this" :)

[Patron]

Cooler Master PWNS!! IM IN! XD!

[Salavat23]

I've decided to go with the Ultra m998 case....It seems like a better case. But the Cooler Master looks better.

Those are incomparable. The Ultra m998 is a midtower. This is a full tower case.

[Salavat23]

Cooler Master PWNS!! IM IN! XD!

That is a BROOAAAAADDDDDD statement.

Not every Cooler Master product is top-notch, but the company is getting there:thumb

[eyegoldeneye]

looks like a wicked case

[werty316]

That is a BROOAAAAADDDDDD statement.

Not every Cooler Master product is top-notch, but the company is getting there:thumb
Well most if not all of CM's newest products are quite good.

[Titus]

Of course, but to say that they pwn as a blanket statement is a little bit of an overestimation of CMs goodness. I believe this is basically what Slavat meant, but I could be wrong.

In my eyes pwn would only apply to something like what intel has been doing lately. In fact I'm not sure if any CM products are pwn worthy. They have some good products but I can't think of any of their products that completely pwn the competition.

[MakubexGB]

That is a BROOAAAAADDDDDD statement.

Not rocks, I meant PWNS. That is his opinion.

Anyways, happy birthday David:thumb

[SAMSAMHA]

[bobletman]

Im definately in for this. Amazing prizes.

[evil_gusgus]

I hope there is a Christmas giveaway this year, I was sooooo bummed I missed last years. :(

[slugbug]

I haven't seen this many entries since last years holiday giveaway.

[hascet]

I'm in for this contest :D

[bobletman]

I haven't seen this many entries since last years holiday giveaway.

From what the poll says there are 116 people in this contest so far. This is a very big turnout. Very little chances to win to. Well thats what happens when you have a really good site.:Beer

[Salavat23]

I hope there is a Christmas giveaway this year, I was sooooo bummed I missed last years. :(

What exactly differs the Christmas giveaway from a standard giveaway?

Just curios.

[JustinEss]

Just take a look at the last Christmas giveaway.

I wonder if I might win something this time :) :spin Can't say I particularly can't live without either item though. Don't really have a solid use for either. I'd rather win at the xmas giveaway if it was anything like last time :)

I thought you needed 30 posts to enter?

You're not supposed to tell 'em these sorts of things. Their fault for not reading rules.

[Patron]

I'm in,..it doest hurt to give it a chance XD!

Interesting typeface, by the way. The R especially has piqued my interest.

Oh well im not here for the prizes so I doesnt really matter. :)

RoboDude666, haven't you been a winner before...I think you have. It was a nice case too, if I think I am right.

I think it was a smilodon case....

[Salavat23]

PLEASE NOTE: This Giveaway ends on Dec. 31, 2007, NOT Nov. 30.

Ah shucks:(:bangcomp

This means more people will join and a smaller chance of winning. Oh well, better for others i guess.

I was really hoping for this one, but what is another 33 days?

[Salavat23]

RoboDude666, haven't you been a winner before...I think you have. It was a nice case too, if I think I am right.

I think it was a smilodon case....

Yeah!

He is spreading propaganda to increase his chances!

lol. Just kidding. (Although you did already win!)

[robodude666]

PLEASE NOTE: This Giveaway ends on Dec. 31, 2007, NOT Nov. 30.

Nooo!!!! Say it ain't so rodney ='[ Another 33 days of waiting? Thats just painful!

Will this contest go on to end of december while a december xmas giveaway goes at the same time? Or there won't be one?

RoboDude666, haven't you been a winner before...I think you have. It was a nice case too, if I think I am right.

I think it was a smilodon case....

Yeah!

He is spreading propaganda to increase his chances!

lol. Just kidding. (Although you did already win!)

Yes, I won three case contests before. One of which I gave away to Race and his brother is using it now. The other one I sold to BCR, and the third (smilodon) I'm using now.

I want to win the COSMOS because Race needs it for his KOS-MOS project. If I win it, then I'll give it to Race :) If I win the power supply, I'll put it to work somehow.

[Titus]

If I win the power supply, I'll put it to work somehow.

:KICK ASS Like there's more than one way to use your PSU... "Welcome to my home, this is my couch and over here is my 12v oven/refrigerator/16-slice toaster! Thank god I won that contest at 3dgameman, or I wouldn't have known how to power it!"

:Thumb Bingo! 1kW is just enough to power a microwave/toaster/egg cooker/buttering machine

Now that's KICKASS!

[Salavat23]

Wait. Let me get this straight.

There won't be any other giveaways this year?

[cvasquez]

RoboDude666, regarding the Smilodon case, just a question.

Have you tried installing a bigger fan on the back? Chances are that not a lot of ventillation is coming out of that case.

Let me know.

I really like that case for the money.
Have you seen the smilodon case in Green?

I am prepping my next system to be build sometime In January or February.

I am totally AMD but will go for an INTEL QuadCore Extreme CPU this time.
I have 5 AMD systems including one 17" Notebook and one 14" notebook as well.

I love cases and like to build systems for fun.

[Salavat23]

RoboDude666, regarding the Smilodon case, just a question.

Have you tried installing a bigger fan on the back? Chances are that not a lot of ventillation is coming out of that case.

Let me know.

I really like that case for the money.
Have you seen the smilodon case in Green?

This belongs on another thread, no a giveaway thread.

We would certainly help you, but this does not belong here.

I'm guessing there will be no X-mas giveaway because of all the people who joined just to be in the contest...Then after the winners were drawn many new members left and there wasn't much activity going on in the forums afterward around January.

Maybe last year was a sort of test? :shifty

lol no there isnt a X-Mas give away, didnt you notice that this Contest ends Dec 31st =p

but anyhow the X-Mas give away is every now and then, an extreme amount of work went into that like 3+ months of planning that give away took place so I wouldnt be shocked if it didnt happen this year but just maybe he may do it next year but if not hey no biggie, the site is what Im here for...

Is there some sort of November Fools day that I have never heard of?

I hope so.

[PaulM27]

Whoever wins has EXTREME luck out of 118+ ppl that joined/will join.

[slugbug]

Wouldn't it be better to just have the drawing at the original time?
I'm sure everyone was disappointed when they read Rodney's post about this contest being extended another month. Especially since it was announced just a few days before the end of the month.

I'm sure we'll all survive if there is no contest in December.

Yup :Thumb

I would survive perfectly fine without a December contest. I would, however, be terribly disappointed if this contest is extended another month... Doesn't seem fair at all for the people who signed up in the beginning. And especially for those people who actually can use these prizes. I understand last year the december contest was extended because of downtime, but this year the new dedicated server has been perfect and there has been no downtime. No reason to extend this contest another month.

However, if CoolerMaster can't send the prizes at this time, thats understandable. But I'm sure the winners wouldn't mind waiting another month in that case to receive their prizes.

Having no December/holiday contest is sad to hear, but we can live through without it.

-robodude666

[Saturn2888]

Well that's a pretty case if I've ever seen one.

[warrenh]

lol i was 2nd to sign up for this contest.. now pushed back 1 whole month and 1 day. Surprising!

[bobletman]

For prizes this good I think its worth the wait.

[Titus]

Your mom was worth the wait. :shifty

Me cranky.

[cvasquez]

PLEASE NOTE: This Giveaway ends on Dec. 31, 2007, NOT Nov. 30.

I was anticipating this giveaway to be complete by now..but apparently it has been changed to the end of December???

Oh well....there goes our little chances to win this contest.
As opposed to having a couple of thousand people in the raffle now we are going to be around 8 thousand....hehehe.

Merry Christmass everyone! Lots of LUCK!!!
:Thumb

[Salavat23]

Can you at least lock the thread then?

lol. Just kidding.

Once again, good luck to everybody who has joined, is joining and will join!

[Saturn2888]

I didn't know about it until the last minute so I guess I got lucky he changed the date.

[Race234]

wow the greedy-ness in people really start to show...

lol who cares so he changed the date of a contest to where YOU didnt spend any money, lost any investment, a free contest that he takes the time to do at which he really has no need to do in the first place, for me he could say the contest was canceled and I could care less because I come to this site for the community and the reviews not to try to win stuff, so chill out and be happy that he even does contest in the first place.

You're just happy because you won two things from futurelooks :P

I really don't care if I win or not... I don't really care if this contest even ends as I am almost certain that I won't win. I won three times last year. Two of them were flukes, and one was 50% chance.

[werty316]

Big whoop if I win or loose as contest come and go all the time and just because this contest has been extended isn't the end of the world.

[Titus]

Sry. The setup was too good to miss, even though it was a bit childish. I mean come on, how often do you get that excellent of a setup? Mostly I had a headache. I really couldn't think coherently at all, but I was on a spamming roll!

I totally agree. The contest is not a big deal for me. I know that it's just something that's here so I may as well enter, eh? That being said, the contests did draw me here, but it was the community that made me stay and even contribute financially. For the price of one video game, you can show Rodney that you appreciate his efforts and help keep the site running. /my $0.02

[robodude666]

As I said.. If I win the case, its going straight to race. If I win the PSU I won't let it go wasted.

[jamboxl453]

Nooooooooooo. I was really looking forward to this day. I need a case badly and a power supply would come really handy too. :( I don't think rodney is joking either. It's kind of sad. :Crying I can't wait longer.

[JustinEss]

I think he's just trying to screw with out heads!

[Fuzzfool]

How can you screw without heads? Use pliers and twist it? lol

[LowLux]

Woooooooooooot!

There are only 2 KICKASS MEMBERS??? That's some crazy stuff. :hail

Hehe :) I overtook sherry a month or so back. I should move up another spot by end of December. I think in the top 10 thread, I calculated how many months till I get into the top 10 :)

[Stevebobwe]

o_O Count me in I guess. W00t. Kinda makes me an ass for trying to win cuz I already have one, but I'm running low on cash atm. almost finished my build ^.^ Eh, what the heck i'm not going to win anyway. gl to the rest of you though.

[Saturn2888]

You know what? Robo has passed me. I didn't even see it happen, although I've been floating around the 5000 mark for a long time now anyway. I just remember how in 5 months (April-August 2006) I was already 2000 posts more than I had originally up to that point in time which was something like 350. If I would've kept that up, I think I'd be up there in the top 5.

Right now, I'm at least in the top 20. It took me YEARS to get this high. Maybe if I'm active again and join up like 100 topics a day like Robo, I could possibly overtake him in a few months or so. I don't think I'm going to be worrying about my position though. All of the people I've passed are old members who post only every now and then if much at all anymore. Same with a few of the people above me. I think I'm ready to be active again come winter break so I can break (pun intended) Robo's post count by making it look like there was an off-by-one error or like Tivon added a zero where there shouldn't have been.

Does Zeeker or Rod know if the database still has all of that stuff saved? I would like to see where the forums were at back when I joined in post counts and such and then were it was at like in April of '06 during the grand re-opening.
