If I win this machine I will use it for my writing and my recording and will finally have enough HD and processing power to make videos. I will happily tell one and all how I came by the equipment to make these works of art possible.

  • jamescox - Wednesday, November 11, 2009 - link


    I have been using family members old laptops for a long time. My current laptop is quite good (a mac pro), but I could still use a desktop system. Laptops just are not that good for playing games, although mine will play warcraft; it will almost burn your leg if you don't put something under it though. The last desktop I built for myself was a 300 MHz K6. I have helped many of my friends build systems though. The last one I picked components for was a C2D 2.6 GHz with a GF 8800 GT, a little after the video card was released, so it was expensive at the time.

    Anyway, I have been an Anandtech (and Aceshardware) reader for a long time. but I have not posted on Anandtech forums before.

    Good luck everyone.

    Great computer for a give-away to a friend or someone in the family. Already listened to Anand and bought my Intel Core i7 920 and Intel 80 GB MLC SSD.

    (Who else reading Anand's website doesn't have a Core i5 or Core i7 already and a Intel 80 GB SSD? If you don't have enough money then you need to save up a little, help someone out for a little pay, to make it happen, or stop being cheap and listen to the man's great SSD information and Intel Core i5/7 reviews and jump on this technology already, at least the SSD!)

    I can dig these new I7's even if they don't have triple channel memory, triple channel is not what makes the original I7's so burly, its the multi-threading (hyper). A 4890 is simply powerful enough to play anything these days within reason, and a SSD to boot (no pun intended), is pretty darn awesome too.

    Good luck Everyone...

    One thing I really hope will happen is that we see more giveaways.

  • TechDicky - Monday, November 9, 2009 - link

    Of course there are probably thousands of people that could really use a decent system...

    Lets see, looks like there have been 3729 posts so far and this has been going for about out of 8 days so far, which is about 621.5 per day, for a total of 4972. Let's just round that off to 5000 entries via the comments. I'm going to take a wild stab at this and say that 80% of all entries will be via comments and only 20% via twitter. (cant even look to see from the office), so that would bring the total up to 6250 entries. But I am going to venture to say that 5% will be disqualified (for not doing both things) bringing it down to about 5937.5. So that would leave my odds at 1 in less than 6000. Not too good. But not too bad... What are some other things with similar odds?

    Over a 50 year period, the odds of individual death from comet or asteroid impact... What the Heck? Who came up with that statistic? http://www.npl.washington.edu/av/altvw50.html">http://www.npl.washington.edu/av/altvw50.html

    Lottery odds for Medway in north Kent, England... http://social.moldova.org/news/1-in-6000-lottery-o...">http://social.moldova.org/news/1-in-600...-odds-in...

    The odds of twin sisters being pregnant with twins at the same time... http://snippets.com/what-are-my-odds-of-having-twi...">http://snippets.com/what-are-my-odds-of-having-twi...

    I'd add more, but i've got to run... It would be interesting to see how many valid entries there were at the end of this... hint hint...

    Wait, Vista?! Really? Surprising. I'm still in of course, just disappointed in the OS selection considering all the other components are pretty top of the line.

    Good system setup, especially the core components. Were it mine I'd probably up the RAM to 8GB, but other than that it looks pretty much like something I'd cobble together. I don't currently have a desktop, so winning one would be quite nice! Here's hoping. Good luck with the promotion...

    Also, anandtech has some of the best in-depth articles I've found on the web. Thanks!

    This will be a very, very good system. The SSD alone with be mind-blowing. The DDR1600 RAM will run in-spec with the default BCLK of 1333 and the RAM multiplier at 12. But with a liquid cooler you could go with a BCLK of 167, use DDR2000 RAM, set the CPU multiplier at 17 and not worry about overheating during Turbo Boost. Very nice indeed.

    Aussies rank 3rd to US and South Africa, but I'd think it would be far easier to execute a competition in Australia than South Africa.... Plus we are so much better at cricket :P

    Anyway, sweet little system for sure.

    Hello Anand,
    One option for an international give-away:
    Use a partner that is present worldwide, like ... Intel ...
    Intel could pass a processor, or a SSD, that they can deliver, from their local distribution logistcs(SP?), worldwide!
    How about that?

    Awesome giveaway! Anandtech has been where I've came for good reviews for at least 5 years now since all the other ones died off for the most part that started in the late 1990s early 2000s (or at least they have changed drastically and lost most of their 'useful' members for the most part).

  • winfred44 - Thursday, November 5, 2009 - link

    it took a give away of this level for me to jump in. I"ve been reading Anandtech for 5 years and have nothing but praise for the depth,selection of topics,unbiased opinions and plain old long hours of work that are shown in 99% of the articles.Most people completely forget the element of trust that you have earned with your readers because of that very work ethic.My only suggestion might be to figure out a way to tally how many early CPU failures (from readers) can be linked to aggressive overclocking and then graph possibly more accurate return on investment figures{ie number of CPU"s purchased over a set time interval; 2,3, or 4year time frame.Moores Law already exerts a cap on a variety of hardware lifespans and compatability. winfred44

    I like that there's a nice balance of forward-looking (web site revamp) and faithfulness to history (remembering and revisiting/continuing worthwhile traditions) here at Anandtech.

    This balance in moving forward without forgetting what's good is part of why Anandtech.com is one of the very few sites I visit on a daily basis—and the only hardware/tech site among the few.

    Kudos.

  • sceptus - Thursday, November 5, 2009 - link

    "We've grown quite a bit since then, and unfortunately executing a giveaway isn't as easy as me putting up some questions and making a few phone calls some time later. There are legalities and a bunch of other buzz-killing details that have to be taken care of otherwise our fun would be brought to an end."

    Is this because there are more legal issues than there were back then? I would think that, since Anandtech has really taken off now, it would actually be easier to do a giveaway.

    Anyhow, this is pretty cool. Count me in.

    This is very cool. I read just about every article on AnandTech for about 6 months before I built my first system. In the years since then I have worked my way up through various jobs to a regular IT support position, but the information I learned in those first few months of studying were a large part of why I was able to land my first job. I still regularly come back to Anandtech for the best and most interesting hardware information. Thanks AnandTech, and count me in!

    Thanks for the opportunity to be in the contest, but mostly thanks for an excellent technical site, and the thouhsands of hours of time I have spent on it over the years.

    That being said, a contest such as this is icing on the cake! Keep 'em coming!

    Sadly, I do wish there were more giveaways here on anandtech. Sure the legalities of it are much different than they were long ago, but needless to say it would certainly make me more impressed with some companies products.

    Thanks Anand!

  • alershka - Wednesday, November 4, 2009 - link

    I was just thinking how my XPS system is no longer even close to cutting edge. Moving from Vista to Win7, I lost a point in my system score due to my Pentium D. This would be great.

    Like everyone else I'd like to win.
    Good luck to everyone.
    The system looks nice and the specs from Intel keep looking better, hopefully AMD answers with something comparable so that the competition can keep the innovation growing.

  • vmwizard - Wednesday, November 4, 2009 - link

    Yes, giveaways are good things. However, it seems a bit odd that everything in this package is quite new EXCEPT the video card, albeit that it is that old either. However, a low-end DX11 (5750 or 5770) card would seem to have been more in-line with the rest of the gear. Well, I guess beggars can't be choosers.
  • alexl55 - Wednesday, November 4, 2009 - link

    Been reading AnandTech for a few years now but only commented on DailyTech until now.

Keep up the great technical articles and I'll keep coming back; these giveaways won't hurt either.

  • dzlndave - Wednesday, November 4, 2009 - link

    My stepson is taking a Cinema 4D class at the local community tech and would like to do some work at home. Unfortunately, his old Athlon XP PC just doesn't cut the mustard. Luckily, Cinema 4D is mostly CPU limited and seems to respond better than many animation suites to a gaming graphics card. (As can be seen in numerous Cinebench benchmarks.) So, this PC looks like it could be just the ticket for him. (I could always upgrade the graphics card to a workstation-class card if needed in the future.) Thanks, Anand! Hope I win!
  • Titanius - Wednesday, November 4, 2009 - link

    Anand
    You had me until I read the part about the need to submit a birth date. Unfortunately, as a consultant on ID Theft, that's one of the critical identifiers that can allow the compromise of an individual's identity. Include the person's birth date and location, and it's not too difficult to do some research to determine a mother's maiden name to obtain a birth certificate, and there we go!

    If the desire is to weed out those under 18, then a simple statement to that effect would be sufficient. In any event, I assume you'll be checking the correct age of the winner with proper identification documents, so it's really not necessary to have the actual date for the contest entry purposes. However, for marketing for Intel, and other related parties, that's another matter, as the birth date provides important demographic information for such purposes.

    None the less, I applaud your giveaway efforts, and only hope the information provided by the entrants isn't compromised in any way, primarily by the sponsors including Intel.

    Also, even though I know no one will actually read this, but please add more IT Computing reviews. Even though most readers here are likely gamers and enthusiasts and probably wouldn't appreciate the added information, but IT folk could use some guidance on the latest crop of Server components, software and platforms.

    I for one just ordered the parts for two Lynnfield based Xeon single socket utility servers and would appreciate some reviews on whether it was a good platform choice or if I should have gone with the lower clocked Core i7 based Xeon instead.

    Actually, it would be serendipitous if I won, however unlikely. We just moved so we have no money, the holidays are here so we have no money and our PC just began the slow process of dying on us. On the one hand we just can't afford to replace it but on the other... how can someone live without a working PC?
