The suspense! It's too much! :P

Generally the winner is picked within a few days of the counter hitting zero.  It will be announced on the mods rigs page.

I don't know. I might be wrong but I searched the winners name ( stella808 ) and according to the members list she/he is not even a member of the community. If this is in fact the case. I call BS on this whole contest. You should have to be an active member of the EVGA community. Period!!!

 Your right! They all have the same 3Dmark scores. They're all the same computer. He just buys new cases and registers them in the Mod Rigs. As a matter of fact he has that same computer registered three times just under a different rig names.

Thanks for pointing that out - I will forward to marketing.

That is dirty. Looking forward to seeing who the winner is. Hope it is someone who could really use it. My rig is great but I would not say no to 1k, get me some liquid going and a good sound system.

I wanted to also pointout that the contest rules state:

Members are allowed to post as many systems as they want.

If EVGA sticks to that, my system my be posted 5,000 times here soon

But it does not say that they can't count them all as one if they are duplicate...

Yeah that is no bueno.  I agree the person needs to be active and if they can have 8 different rigs like that they obviously don't need the money.

I think he forgot to update his modsrigs when he upgraded his components. Instead he just posted a new rig hence the differenrent names of the rigs.. (Click to see rig)
1. Single 8800GT
2. 8800GT Gaming rig
3. 808McLovin
4. Havaiiangamer
5. Overclocked 8800GT
6. Havaiian gamer
7. 808Gamer
8. Single 280 GTX
 

i just hope evga repicks so us guys without unlimited budgets can also mess with water cooling and the such. I would love to be able to use a GTX 580 FTW.

d-rock

^ I would like to try wter cooling period lol
But you get re entered every time the counter hits 0 right?

Or we could just take some new pics of our current rigs from different angles and re post them under different names like this guy.

Well, honestly I would expect as much, I was kidding when I posted the above quote.
 
But does that policy apply in the current situation though?

The terms are right there, it doesn't matter what they have in their system, it's a random drawing based on who qualifies.  So boo to random number generators!
